If you have a big crowd to feed and everyone seems to want something different, these Outer Banks buffets are a handy choice. Most of them have so much variety that any culinary desire can be quenched. For the price, too, they can be a good value. And, if you're a fan of crab legs, some of these places have specials on them for early bird diners. Along with the Outer Banks restaurants that feature buffets, you'll also find buffets at other menu-specific restaurants on special occasions such as Mother's Day, Thanksgiving, New Years and Easter.
