Rolling Meadows Old Country Buffet closed
The Old Country Buffet in Rolling Meadows closed late last month as its parent company remains in bankruptcy and continues shuttering restaurants around the country, city officials said.
The restaurant, located at 1440 Golf Rd., closed Sunday March 25, City Manager Barry Krumstok said.
The chain’s parent company, Minnesota-based Buffets, Inc., filed for bankruptcy in 2008 and again in January. Shortly after the second filing, the company announced plans to close 81 Old Country Buffets nationwide, including restaurants in Lombard, Naperville, West Dundee, Northlake, Countryside, Joliet, Bradley and Fairview Heights.
A second Illinois Old Country Buffet, located in Lansing, also closed in March.
