Buffet / Smorgasbord Restaurants?

[Render]

Well it's like this...

I got some mates coming down from England for a visit and a fish early next year.

I met these mates at Wanstead Rugger club back home. One of 'em is 6'8" and weighs a good 280lbs. The rest are only slightly smaller.

What's yer point you ask?

Well, they eat like the size of blokes they are, don't they? So I'm thinking that the only way to keep these blokes happy after the fishin trips is to find all the buffet / smorgasbord restaurants in the Gold Coast and point 'em there.

Which is where you lot come in. If you know of any buffets, could ya post them here with maybe an idea of the menu and pricing?

I reckon it might be useful for all of us to have a guide to the good buffets, too.

Cheers and thanks,

R

The buffet smorgasboard at the Tweed Heads Golf Club is my pick. Best range and variety of food i have ever come across and i've tried a few! Can't remember the price but am sure its cheaper than the ones in the replies already posted. Also the drinks are priced at golf club prices and not hotel prices!
I'll be there myself with the family sometime in the two weeks after Christmas Day.

Mate Shereton Hotel Brisbane Thursday nights. Awsome seafood & includes beers. Beer types include Corona, Crown & everything else good value. But may not sound appealing as the beer is cold

[Mad_Barry]

Isn't it ironic how as rec fishos we all like to plaster the pro's at every opportunity, but we still line up and scoff the seafood smorgasboards , supplied by the very same pro's. 8)

Not a dig at anyone,, notice I said 'we'.

Thanks for the replies to this.

I'm familiar with the Tweed Gold club buffet... IIRC it's about $25, but only serves prawns, oysters and spanner crab by way of seafood.

There's a good buffet at the Twin Towns clubs here. The one in Banora point is about $12 and does mostly chinky tuck along with a carvery and seafood on Saturdays ($25)

The main Twin Towns resort on Jack Evans harbour does a good buffet, too... $25, but no seafood.

There's a Chinese smorgy on the Palm Beach. Four Seasons I think it's called with a good range of chinky grub for about $11 or so.

That's the ones I know. Anyone got any more, especially non-seafood ones?
