Spoon World Buffet and Bar – BasildonReally enjoyed this would recommend in food lovely and fresh . And allegedly well displayed
Spoon World Buffet and Bar – BasildonHonestly everything was lovely but we was sat next to the table near the back door, and the air-conditioning unit which made the experience very cold even with a coat on. This was manageable, however what was not acceptable was when our table watched a member of staff exiting the disabled toilet with their gloves on tucking themselves in whilst exiting said toilet, we did not stay after this and unfortunately will not be returning.
Spoon World Buffet and Bar – BasildonGreat food friendly staff the only problem is that it was cash only other then that great
Spoon World Buffet and Bar – BasildonWent to dinner as a 4, 1 of us ate different foods to the other 3 and that person ended up getting food poisoning and becoming quite unwell. We were also asked to leave due to enforcement offices found illegal activity going on in the kitchen, didn’t manage to eat our moneys worth. Won’t be going back
Spoon World Buffet and Bar – BasildonFood hot fresh plenty of choice, down side waitress didn't clear plates from table left quite a while before cleared to busy chatting and it wasn't that busy in resturant
Spoon World Buffet and Bar – BasildonSeated fast , food was hot fresh and loads to choose from. Clean and a great atmosphere!
Spoon World Buffet and Bar – BasildonBrilliant place to eat, my only negative is your staff don’t look happy
Spoon World Buffet and Bar – BasildonOne of my group got charged an adult price despite being under 1.5m. Food was bland and fresh cooked meat was tough and flavourless. Kids left to run riot by their parents. Tables not very well layed out and to many. Better off paying a little more and going to Aroma!
Spoon World Buffet and Bar – BasildonDidn't even end up staying prices are ridicules, brought my 1 year old and 3 year old who they used to charge £3 each and my 10 year old who got charged for an adult, we've been I the past and was very happy but I won't go there again as the staff was not helpful and to be quite honest just rude. This was my daughters favourite place that we feel we can no longer go to the restaurant as we felt completely ripped off
Spoon World Buffet and Bar – BasildonHad booked for 6, however, there was 8 of us which was no problem as the place was empty at the time of visit. Disappointed that for some reason (not known) this evening (15/02/2024) was Cash only payment? This is rather a lot of money to be carrying about and the restaurant could have texted or emailed me before hand to advise as they has all my details from the online booking? Also, feel as the place did get full of customers during the evening having so much cash on site was dangerous and open to a robbery attempt perhaps especially on entry there was a paper sign saying Cash only for outsiders to see.
Spoon World Buffet and Bar – BasildonThe food was lovely, but I was a bit disappointed with the wait staff. I had brought my 11yr old son and a friend in for his birthday dinner. I had checked on the website to make sure I could bring a birthday cake in. I asked the staff if they minded sorting the cake and bringing it over later and was told it was no problem. Wheni asked for the cake to be brought over, the lady brought it to the table without saying a word, dumped it in front of me and left so quickly I had only just started singing the first line of happy birthday. I know they were busy and didn't expect to be serenaded by the whole staff, but I thought one person should have been able to make it a little more special than just putting the cake on the table..
Spoon World Buffet and Bar – BasildonGreat value for money and the food is first class.
Spoon World Buffet and Bar – BasildonBrilliant place loved it
Spoon World Buffet and Bar – Basildon2 weeks in advance, booked a table for 6 at 18:30 on a Sat night, phoned and revised this up to a table for 9 a few days later. Arrived at the restaurant at 18:15 with a long queue outside, joined queue and phoned to confirm if this was correct or we could just walk in, was told to join the queue. After 10 mins of seeing people just walk in one of our party went in and spoke to the reception who confirmed we did not need to wait in the queue and they would notify us when a table was ready, upon confirming the reservation we found out that apparently we had booked a table for 5 people not 9 and when questioned was told that that was written down so it doesn’t matter what we say (despite even showing the original reservation for 6 people). After another 10 mins was offered 2 “booths” of 4 next to each other, which we declined as it would have split out group and been a squeeze, this was responded by a “well you’ll just have to wait longer then”. Eventually we were seated at 18:45 at a table which was very congested and entry/exit for 8/10 seats was very difficult as you could only get through the space between the next table if one of the chairs was fully tucked in. Upon entry we were asked if we required any high chairs (we had 2 “small” children), we asked for just one then were shown to our table, this chair didn’t arrive and we had to go and find them. No hint of admission that anything was their fault. Crampt seating arrangement. Clearly only interested was getting people in/out as quick as possible (booking was irrelevant). Food was below average, atmosphere was (nothing from the staff), pricing feels a bit high for the experience.
Spoon World Buffet and Bar – BasildonVisited on 15/01/24 Reception need training Didn’t even ask whether I have booked or not. Receptionists were welcomed rudely When I just open the door and came in the person was going upstairs and told to stay there. Later when I was waiting in que But they allowed people who came in with money was allowed. Later they told that payment machine not working and just asked to go up and pay (not guided.) Indian choices were less one side counter was closed. Almost dishes were empty( Indian side) Service team was good helping and plates were cleared on time. Neatly presented table and clean surrounding
