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."
