Buckingham Arms Hotel

I was given the wrong drink to start with. The menu was limited to battered or crumbed meat and seafood. No steaks! In fact no real meat at all as far as we could see. The salad looked nice but the dressing was too bitter to eat it. There were only 6 other people, so not busy.... we aren't surprised really, given the sad menu options. It's a shame. This used to be such a great place.

Use to love this place for a family get together. It is really in need of some upgrading, looks very run down upon entry, some of the chairs were soiled stained - they need to be thrown out! Some staff were quick and friendly, and some were not. Children 3 years old and below are free. Prices for buffet dining $$$$ does not include drinks. But does include a water bar (bottles of water uncovered) tea & coffee. The food was dry and needed more variety. But it does offer cooked prawns, mussels, calamari fish & octopus so more seafood than other buffet dining around Adelaide. The soft serve ice cream machine was not that great, but they still has the cinnamon doughnut machine station.

Visited here recently for lunch. On entering the Hotel it was modern and clean with friendly staff who greeted us as we approached the counter. We had attended this day for a buffet lunch. The selection was somewhat limited compared to some other buffet restaurants, but what we ate we throughly enjoyed. The roast meat was carved as required and it was juicy and tender, nice range of vegies and salads, seafood, asian, and desserts. They had hot cinnamon donuts which was a real treat. Wasnt too busy on the Monday we attended so we didnt have to stand in line waiting to serve our food like l have done at some other buffet restaurants. I would definitely eat here again. There is plenty of free onsite parking available with wheelchair access. There is a drive thru bottle shop aswell.
