Broome's Buffet & Catering - Good summer lunch - Caterers Near Me - Ocean Springs, Mississippi

The filthiest bathroom I have ever seen! Boys abd girls share, which is ok, but obviously these southern men have LOUSY AIM! Disgusting at every turn which then makes me question the overall standards of cleanliness? Awful totally ruined eating there! Plenty of room in a dead zone to fix this issue if anyone even cares? Just worry about what is going on in the order areas if this bus how they maintain their one bathroom ! read more

This is a small but very good southern buffet in the heart of Ocean Springs. They are usually open just for lunch time 11-2pm M-F. Please let me if I am mistaken. Off Government Street near Washington Avenue. Please do not get discouraged by no parking in the front. They share a large parking lot in back with plenty of parking. The menu changes daily. Please refer to the hours of service and what delicious food specials they offer that day. We happen to stubble across this place one day and thought we might check it out. You are welcome to a warm and friendly staff. Service with a smile. I know they do not offer much in terms of food selection. But make up for it in the quality of food they serve. I noticed that the fresh Mac & cheese gets eaten a lot. They seem to cook a fresh batch often. I noticed that it is real cheese that they use and not that powder stuff. They offer fresh ice cream you can scoop up at your heart's content. We happen to arrive on the day they serve meatloaf. Apparently, it is very popular! I can definitely see why. Gives you the sense it was cooked at home. Very tasty! They keep bringing out new batches. They off small salad bar and bake fresh desserts. At the time they offered blackberry cobbler and banana pudding on the side of where the ice cream is. They offer a drink fountain for your convenience. All is self serve. No need of a waiter/waitress. Just pre pay at the front door and seat yourself. As for seating, they just offer table seating. Larger table seating in the back. If you need more space. Ask if you may link more tables together. The seating is basic with light padding on back and bottom. They off trash cans though out the restaurant. Just dump your old plate and grab a new one. They also offer hand sanitizer through-out the restaurant and at the buffet station. No WiFi at this time. If you are hungry and in the area. Recommend stopping by to get your fill of tasty food and serve by some nice staff! read more

I hate to see people shovel in dry, overcook bland food with rubbery texture. That's what you will get here at brooms southern style buffet. This food is nasty. The greens were acidic. The fried chicken wasn't crispy and juicy. It was bland and dry. Everything else was bland tasteless. No flavor and I'm looking around at people just shovel in this food like it's delicious. It's horrible . Well, I say come see for yourself. You'll like it too because so many people have dead immature taste buds we need more Gordon Ramsay's out here. They give refunds. read more

My husband and I stopped in for lunch on a Friday and were pleasantly surprised. They have seafood on their buffet on Fridays, so that made my husband especially happy. This place is very much a locals dine in for sure. Everyone knew each other and were all so friendly. The buffet had quite a bit to choose from. It was traditional American fare- baked and fried chicken, baked and fried fish, and fried shrimp. Salad bar, different types of veggies, macaroni and cheese, dressing and mashed potatoes. It was a large room and it gave me the impression that it could be used for a private event given the size. The staff is very friendly and were quick to refresh any items that ran out. We did love their desserts. The banana pudding and a caramel cake was simply delicious. We only wish that they were open on the weekends since they have limited hours. read more

Very nice spot. They offer a buffet Monday thru Friday from 11-2. The owner and staff are very very friendly and helpful. They are proud of what they put out and they absolutely should be. I will start with the potato salad, when I say good it is good. The fish is very good too, along with the mashed potatoes and anju gravy. The turnip greens are good and very well seasoned. The roast is good and the pork was ok too. But the star is the fish. Everything I had was good. The place is clean. They also have desserts and ice cream. The salad bar is full and contains various items and fruit. I recommend this place if you are in Ocean Springs for lunch. read more

The southern food was very good except for the cucumber salad. It was spoiled. I took it to the cook Josh and told him and he quickly said No it's not mama, I just got the cucumbers from Rouses fresh this morning and he wanted to argue. I've been in restaurant business for 47 years and a retired chef. I told him I'm letting him know so others won't eat it and he took it personally. He was very rude and would not take my plate back so I left it there. I was being courteous and do not want to lose my cool and cuss him out. He talked down to me with his voice raised. His female black co-worker witnessed it and that was the first time I went there bringing family members there to lunch and never had the chance to go in there. That man should learn how to speak to customers . My sister and niece and myself enjoyed the southern food and I hoped they pulled that cucumber salad off the buffet after we left. I was not rude at all. read more

great selection, very clean and different specials daily, I eat there several times a week

Came here for the first time. The layout of the food is extremely chaotic and doesn't make sense. You got Black eyed peas at one end, red beans and rice on the opposite side at the other end and the rice on the on the opposite side from the red beans and rice. After Criss crossing several times around the buffet and wanting some red beans and rice I decided to reach over grab a scoop on there so I didn't have to walk all the way around for the third time. I don't know if he was the owner or the worker named Josh immediately ran out and reprimanded me about making sure the spoons face the right way and to walk around. Then I tried to look at something that was completely covered in gravy I lifted up to see that it looked like liver. Then he begins wiping on the plastic cover never mind that people are trying to serve themselves and have to walk around him so that he can write in big letters on that one item that it is liver. The food was alright but the customer service was terrible. Don't treat people rudely. read more

Went for lunch on a Wednesday. Excellent "home cooking" buffet. Good basic "southern" food ... greens, corn, string beans, fried chicken and fish, etc. Good salad bar and dessert counter. Nothing fancy, but virtually every policeman within miles was eating there when we went (excellent indicator of good food)! Very inexpensive, and no-frills dining area. Styrofoam plates and plastic dinnerware. We liked it and will return. read more

This is a review for Broome's Catering and Grocery. Broome's has just reopened its doors after being under renovation for about a year. I have tried to shop here before they closed and liked the idea of being a local family owned business. After being forced to shop the large competing grocers in Ocean Springs and to no fail been disappointed, I am making my plans to shop this new beautiful store. It is of the age, modern facility. I noticed they are offering a large selection of gourmet items as well as organic. As always, the family and other employees are friendly. I would like to see the checkers make themselves more aware of the items that are sold. They have a beer reviewer on staff. He told me that the consumer can buy a bottle, have it filled and take it home, bring it back in and reuse it! It looked to me that they had quite a few beers, one being Lazy Magnolia and hopefully Crooked Letter, both fairly local. I bought a large amount of smoked turkeys for thanksgiving and heard they were awesome! In the past if I needed a certain cut of meat, they would cut it and have it ready for me. This place in the past has great produce and the best meat. The prices are great on produce and comparable in the meat. It sounds strange, but even at the Broome's gas station, they have great meat. They have a bakery that is epic. I've not had the caramel cream cheese cake, but it looks amazing. They have fresh bread and buns. As far as the catering goes, I have not used them, but I have been to several events that have been catered by Broome's and they have great food. Their service is kind and the servers always look clean and present well. I give this team a five star for product, display, customer service and pricing. I will shop here for my weekly list! read more

pork chops pounded thin & breaded, fried okra, baked mac-n-cheese was my order and it was all good! they have meatloaf on tuesdays & shrimp on fri (open 11-130 mon-fri); my friend had fried chicken (salty), mashed potatoes (homemade, not instant), green beans (not like hartz but still good). it was $30.39 for both of us to east the buffet inside with drinks. they might have a different price for take-out since you can only make that one trip through the buffet line. our first experience here was underwhelming even though the food was good. once you figure out how to get into the right parking lot and which door to come through when you get inside and which path to use to the buffet area and how fast you need to have your money ready, and where they keep the plasticware/lids/straws/napkins as well as the butter/lemon/hot sauce, and save room for ice cream that nobody advertises in here, the rest is a piece of cake! my recommendation is to stick with what you know until and unless your hunger can patiently wait behind the routine they have set up here. for the price they charge to eat, i'd rather travel across town, js. read more
