Almost always a good experience here, very well priced and staff are all very friendly and welcoming. 37 for 2 adults 1 child (free) and 5 drinks I think is a very good price. Some of the food wasnt the best but majority of it was very good. Ice cream is a lot tastier since the new machine really enjoyed it. Only thing that needs improvement is both toilets aren’t very clean and the staff are abit slow at taking away used plates.
Do yourself a favour and visit this buffet restaurant. Food is absolutely lovely, with nice wine as well, to top it off the owner and staff are spot on. Anything else you want, just ask and they will get it for you.. Next time we come down from Geordieland it's definitely on our list. Good prices as well. What's not to like Thanks very much
Love this Chinese restaurant! The place looks a little divey/run down, but the food is delicious and the staff are friendly! Very well priced as well, at 10.50 for an adult all you can eat meal and all you can eat ice cream!
We pop in every time we visit cleethorpes, awesome food, lovely selection, outstanding, 5 stars all the way! Sorry, no pictures, just got stuck in to my food! Oh, and an ice cream Mr whippy machine you do yourself, loved it.
Stayed at a local caravan park, and wanted some tasty food. We have been here before for the dining buffet and really enjoyed it, so we thought we would give the takeout ago. It did not disappoint the food was absolutely fantastic and the price was amazing too. If you’re feeling like a takeaway then definitely try the Oriental Express at Cleethorpes you will not be disappointed. Can’t wait to go again next time we are in the area.
We prefer to go in the off season. It's still busy, but not rammed. If we was to make a suggestion, it would be to have a better dessert option. Not just ice cream
This restaurant is just beside Cleethorpes boating lake which is strategic. We went in after a great time boating on the lake. After food, we went straight on the light rail. We paid 10.50 per head and we were allowed to eat as much as we like. The pricing is very fair, food options were really vast as well. The interior design was good but not excellent however. Customers also get a view of the boating lake from the restaurant, there is a better view from the patio.
For the money you pay this is a hidden gem. Great for families. Very hard working staff who are very attentive and friendly. Fantastic value for money and lovely food and selection. Try it for yourselves. I could not fault it.
