Chucks Family Pizza Buffet
We Are Here for the Families!

W
ith a very low budget and lots
of prayers, Chuck Wilson and
his wife Angie decided to open
a restaurant in Forest City.
Chuck had collected 35 years
of experience working as general manager for
different chain food restaurants in various cities
in North Carolina. He worked with Pizza Hut for
12 years. “Being a general manager was great but
I wanted to open my own place,” Chuck says.
On January 19, 2016, the Wilsons opened the
doors of Chucks Family Pizza Buffet, a large
building located across from the Walmart Plaza.
The place is impecable and inviting, there is a
large game room for kids and teens, staff is very
welcoming and the buffet is simply delicious.
Aside from a large variety of pizza toppings and
wings, Chucks Family Pizza Buffet is the home
of the Chocolate Chip Pizza and the Oreo Pizza!
The buffet is just $7.99 including the drink! There
is also a breakfast buffet from 8:00am-11:00am.
In addition to that, they offer a Family Night
Special on Thursdays where kids 10 years old
and under eat free with a paying adult. “We
understand families of
Rutherford County, and
that is why we have family
night on Thursday nights
so that it is affordable for
most families to have a night
out. We also offer a military
discount” Angie explains.
There are also different
incentives through the
week. There is live gospel
music on Mondays from
5:30-7pm; on Tuesdays, 10%
of the sales is donated to a
non profit organization; on
Wednesdays they offer .50
12
cent chicken wings, an d on Thursdays there is
Family Night!
When asked why his menu was different from
food chain restaurants, Chuck said, “We only
use fresh ingredients. We also take requests on
the buffet.” The Wilsons are very glad that the
community has supported them and are looking
forward to a great 2017!
