Price
Pros:
"It's a little pricier than some other buffets at £19 a head for dinner."
"Overall we had a great experience here, it’s good value for what you get with loads of choice on the food and cuisine."
"Decently priced."
"I think at £18.99 an adult it is fantastic value for money too, you would pay more than that for a main and a dessert in other restaurants."
"Drinks are good value - about £4 for a refillable fountain drink so no worries about running out of beverage."
"If you love a variety of foods it's worth the money."
"not bad for price"
Cons:
"The addition of the service charge on my bill automatically is also a major turn-off."
"There is no reason on earth why I will ever pay a premium price of £23.50 including a drink and automatically added service charge to the bill, for this low quality buffet."
"Overpriced to hell £50 for 2 drinks and 2 buffets."
"We paid around £87 for 3 of us, basically bought a pile of chips and cheap desserts."
"Paid around £50 for two of us to have half a plate of food then leave, definitely won't be recommending to others."
"Expensive for the quality of the food and drink and also drinks don’t come included with the buffet price which tipped the pricing over the edge."
"£18.99 per person is an absolute joke, Cosmos should be embarrassed by all of this."

"The restaurant is to high standard of cleanliness."
Cons:
"The place itself was too congested with too many people around. There wasn't any space to even sit in a relaxed manner and enjoy the dinner."
"The seats were that close together you could have stabbed your fork into your neighbours food!"
"The space of the Restaurant is not ideal for a buffet system, everyone is too cramped up."
"It's very crammed to the point that people keep knocking into you."
"The tables are very packed in so not much room to get around, feel you are very close to the person behind you and to the side of you!"
"The seating arrangement was very cramped, making it a challenge to enjoy the meal comfortably."
"The place was very noisy, too- between that and the ticking clock from when they seat you, there's no relaxation here at all."
