Pizza Hut Lunch Buffet Hours, Pricing & Locations Guide 2026
The Pizza Hut All-You-Can-Eat Lunch Buffet is one of the most beloved traditions in casual American and British dining. While many buffet locations were phased out over the past decade in favor of delivery-focused storefronts, hundreds of "Classic Red Roof" and dine-in Pizza Hut restaurants continue to serve the unlimited buffet in 2026.
Here is everything you need to know about buffet hours, 2026 pricing, food offerings, and how to track down an active buffet near you.

Across the majority of participating locations in the United States and the United Kingdom:
- Monday through Friday: 11:00 AM – 1:30 PM (or 2:00 PM at select high-traffic branches).
