Admit it – you’ve thought of it.
Could you just stay all day at your local lunch and dinner buffet and eat all day long?
And a related question: Could a buffet kick someone out who was eating an abnormal amount of expensive food – say, crab legs?
I admit, it’s crossed my mind before – especially the poor law school student me.
Legally, your entry and payment for a buffet is an implied contract. An implied contract is where there are no written terms but both parties actions show the desire to enter into an agreement.
In our buffet situation, the restaurant lays out food in a buffet style and the patrons walk in ready to stuff their faces as much as possible – that’s an implied contract.
Most buffets will have posted notices about the “Rules of the Buffet” and you have to follow those. However, let’s assume for our hypothetical that there are no posted rules.
The first rule of implied contractual interpretation is that Courts will look at the context of the contract. Contracts happen between people – not in the vacuum of space. Meals are broken up into breakfast, lunch, dinner and most people go to a restaurant for one (and only one) of those meals.
So, in my opinion a Court would read into the implied contract a term limiting the buffet meal to one meal.
- You could be legally kicked out of the buffet at the end of lunchtime.
How about the 60 crab legs eater?
We don’t have to hypothesize for this one. There actually was a lawsuit on this very issue out of … guess where?
Las Vegas – home of the buffet. And the Court said the restaurant could not kick out a paying patron simply for eating too much. The risk of a big-eater was on the restaurant.
So, there you have it – you could probably not stay in a buffet restaurant all day but, on the plus side, they can’t kick you out just because you can eat a ton of food. So eat away!
Thanks for explaining that rules are often posted on walls of a buffet restaurant. I’ve always wanted to try going to a dinner buffet diner because I’m interested in trying out different cuisines and eating them together. A buffet might be the most efficient way of doing that.
Excellent article another excellent subject another excellent article i like this kind of thing.

Gracias por aclarar las dudas
Actually it has to say all you can eat. Some buffets give you a reasonable time period to get full while others allow for a helping or two but on the return trip you would be charged for wasted food.. At the 72 ou steak and trimmings challenge you have only 60 minutes. Good luck.
Me and my girlfriend went to a Chinese buffet for lunch. Our lunch visit went into the dinner hours, we were told that we had 3 minutes to get one more serving and after that just fruit and ice cream. By no means, were we trying to have dinner at a lunch price. Is this legal? I felt very uncomfortable and embarrassed, Like my money was not being respected
