This place is great when you want inexpensive Country Cooking! The buffet was clean and well stocked with fresh, delicious southern favorites. The tea is sweet enough to induce diabetes but that's how I like it. Check this spot out as a less expensive alternative to Cracker Barrel, although the atmosphere is a bit understated comparatively. Marvin's doesn't have other merchandise to tempt you so you'll save money that way too.

It's a buffet and the food is great. It's hot and is rotated immediately. The fried chicken is my favorite; it's crispy and the bins are refilled even before they're empty. The catfish is great, the pot roast is yummy. It's a typical country style buffet atmosphere, tables and chairs. Reservations available on certain occasions.

Typical buffet style family restaurant. The selection was somewhat limited but servicable. The available choices were heavy on carbs. Nothing to write home about.The servers were sweet and helpful. The price was extremely low compared to most restaurants currently.

Unbelievable buffet that has something for everyone. It was a Friday and there was seafood on the buffet. Everything was hot and cooked good but didn't last long on the buffet. There is more than enough seating for everyone in town. I saw more large parties seated in one place than I have ever seen. Waitress was super nice. I will be coming back for sure.

I was so pleased to find this restaurant on a recent motorcycle trip with a friend. Food was great and the staff was attentive. Be careful! You'll probably want a nap afterwards!

We live in Alabama, but when we go into Tennessee we like to eat at Marvin's! We love the great food, and everyone is always friendly! We also like the beautiful pictures on the walls! I would suggest though, if you go before 3 o'clock, that you order quickly and ask for your tab. That way you don't have to pay the higher price like we did. You don't have to pay til you leave, and we left after 3 o'clock, therefore paying the supper fee! p.s. One of the perks is the ice cream! We will be back!!! ??????Vegetarian options: You can always eat a salad, if that is all you want. They also have fruit!Dietary restrictions: I am borderline diabetic and I found plenty to eat!Parking: They have plenty of parking spaces! Not a problem at all!Kid-friendliness: They have mac-n-cheese and ice cream!Wheelchair accessibility: A very spacious building, with plenty of room for a wheelchair or mobile chair!
