Absolute disappointment. Last week we booked a party of 10 people for today. One of the party members discovered that theyre closed for refurbishment as he was walking past the restaurant today. The restaurant did not ring us to notify us of this or to cancel our booking. Nobody is around to give any answers and theyre not answering any phone calls. If we did not find out beforehand we all would have turned up to find a closed restaurant. This is completely unprofessional. Unfortunately I cannot give no stars but this definitely deserves exactly that, no stars

Okay, Its a worst place to go in Nottingham. Waitress are incompetent. The food is good, because luckily you can have it freshly cooked infront of you. Pepsi taste rubbish. Bar attender looks at you like, a person from 3rd world. No one is ready to sweep the floor, if something drop on the floor then you will have yellow cleaning sign out which will stay there forever. I gave 1srar to their freshly cooked nan bread and bbqs, which really tasted nice.

Dont go towards the end of the lunch time session. Food is running out and barely warm plus the tables and floor are messy. Not the staffs fault, they are understaffed. When we arrived they showed us to a table next to an overflowing bin they scrape the plates into, despite there being lots of room elsewhere. Shame, it used to be great here.

Weve been to Peachy Keens many times, its a good place. Youre not gonna get the finest food here, but there is a lot of choice, you can eat as much as you want/can, and it is cheap. The quality is pretty decent for the price you pay, there are better AllUcanEat in town in my opinion, but they are also more expensive.

A good buffet with live cooking stations and a wide variety of food. Wait staff are helpful and attentive. The decor seems a little outdated and it can get very noisy as it seems popular with large groups, but overall not bad.

Large selection of foods for All You Can Eat Indian, Chinese, Italian, Pizza, Kebabs, freshly cooked noodels with a selection of meats and vegetables. Curries, all made while you wait. There is also a very large selection of foods kept in heated pans and continually refilled.

Best buffet bar in town, love the lamb chops !!Staff are always very helpful and friendly, chefs cook fresh food at your request, the variety is great for the whole family (and I have fussy kids).

Avoid this cesspit. Genuinely the worst place Ive eaten in my life. The food isnt fit for human consumption, just unknown "meat" soaked in salt and msg. The decor was mediocre at best, downright tacky at worst and the torn seat we sat down at shouldve been a give away at the level of quality on offer. The staff were the only passable thing in this silage serving hole. 1 star is far to generous.

Awful awful Food! It was bland with no taste, cheap ingredients, not fresh, drinks flat and as the sweets picture shows, they just throw fresh food onto old food without even bothering to clean the dishes. Cost over Β£36 for 2 of us ... got a slight discount for complaining but still cost Β£27. For that we could have got 3 courses at Pizza Express or something superior, cheaper, elsewhere. If you dont mind awful quality and non fresh food and are there just to eat as much as you can then i guess you could consider it decentish value for money ... but we wished wed just gone to macdonalds instead!

Do not recommend at all. Food was left to dry and harden, not great variety or quality of ingredients (frozen mini prawns used from kg bags for eg), terrible environment and atmosphere and , to top it up, found a hair in one my customised cook options. Really unsatisfied with this experience.

Loads of choice of food and service quick for drinks. Some food had been out for a long-time so wasnt the best. The fresh made food was excellent.

Pros- Quick service- Friendly staffCons- Poor flavour over a large variety of dishes- Most dishes are either extremely dry or overcooked- Specific items such as the spring rolls or samosa were very light on actual fillingOverall I felt unable to finish anything I was eating, and lost my appetite. The cheap feel to the food leaves you feeling slightly disgusting.

Large variety of food from all over the world, good quality and bar is available. Good choice of desserts and mostly any food you can think of is pretty much there. However I would recommend Cosmo over this, despite it being more expensive it has a even wider range of food and greater quality.

Walking by Peachy Keens you may notice the giant cake in the window. If you go in however, youll notice that the cake is a lie. The desserts are separated into small mouthful sized chunks, the ice cream is the kind you would buy from tesco at the lowest possible price and the chocolate mousse genuinely tasted like washing up liquid. Im pretty sure they reuse the cheap plastic containers it comes in. The reason I focus on the desserts is that I have suppressed all memory of the food that came before it. From the random flashes that come to the forefront of my mind against my greatest effort, I remember trays of food almost gone, bland and stale. When it inevitably ran out, staff that didnt seem like they were doing anything took a laughable amount of time to replace it. I would write more, but Im still here, sat at the table and I can feel a flash back of cold pizza and chewy chicken coming on. BEWARE.

It was... Ok. Its a buffet with a very wide selection and because of that, the food itself is pretty mediocre. For the price, I could have gotten a high quality meal at another restaurant.The novelty is amusing, but the food really doesnt follow through.

Ice cream machine broken, dirty floor, empty dessert plates, dirty tables, half of the dessert menu missing, no crème brûlé and the Pepsi i ordered took 30 mins to arrive !!!! (Red hot is better)An overall complete mess, should have checked what was on offer before sitting down and getting a plate. Would not recommend, will not be returning ever again.

Its just okay. Theres a good variety of food but quality isnt so great. Theres a reason why theres always a table available here! ; Dinner time is much better than lunch time as all of the chefs are available to cook fresh which is reflected in the price. Truth be told, walk 5 minutes up the road to Cosmo. Its the same price and the quality is a lot better.

Okay where do i begin with this place. Lets start with location. The location is very good, the bus i grabbed led me straight outside it (28 pink lineand it is near the front ends of Nottingham city centre. But this is where all the good reviews stop. Lets talk receptionist/manager, i had booked for 12 people and unfortunately 10 turned up, i apologised before seating and almost immediately he said i would have to pay for those two vacancies. Like pardon me Im not paying for two people who decided not to turn up plus you pay per head not for the table nor it seats. Lets move on shall we. The food, BUFFET STYLE, pfft, its so limited (for me and my friendsand then they said they werent serving there popular dishes and when asked they wouldnt give an answer as to why. the images on there websites are literally for show and tell purposes only as there dessert stand was empty and was not restocked and all misplaced. But the chefs in the back were so funny and entertaining to talk it. I like the idea of a open grill. Food taste wise wasnt great at all and in fact was dry and bland. i even choked on a chicken pakora that was how dry it was (it completely absorbed the moisture from my throat. So overall personally it is a would not recommend and i most probably will not be going there again.

Wanted to go out for a nice meal with my partner. I decided I wanted to go somewhere semi decent where I have been before. They sat us down then took half a hour to get to us yet everyone else got served as soon as they sat down. Eventually after another half a hour she asked us if we wanted a drink. By then we already decided to go somewhere else. Completely done with this place. Never coming here again. Im very disappointed.

Very poor food. Lukewarm and not a great quality at all. Id go to Cosmo and spend a little more for much better food. I found Peachy Keens on my one and only visit to be very below-par.

Went for my birthday meal with family, very disappointed, booked for 2030 which on the grand scheme isnt late for a Friday night, especially when its open till 2300. Food was very mediocre, most of it had probably been in the hot dishes since opening at lunch so were luke warm, the only food that was hot was the freshly made dishes. The desserts were dry and custard was like water. Drinks tasted watered down.Have been here in the past and couldnt fault it. Even with the money off vouchers given wont be returning....

Food was absolutely awful, everything was dry. Food had been absolutely covered in spice to try and hide the lack of taste. Dead fly in glass. Found what appeared to be a hair in battered chicken ball, manager assured us it was absolutely fine as it was a piece of plastic, not a hair (like thats any better!). Only two of the staff appeared to actually want to be there and look after customers. Manager tried to tell us that everything was prepared and cooked fresh on site, then we watched the chef grab a box of Mccain frozen wedges out of the freezer. Worst part is that this place charges similar prices to Cosmos, which is far superior! Especially as Cosmo has refillable drinks and much bigger selection of fresh food!

Me and a few others went to this resturaunt today. We had a pint of Somersby, Carlsberg and tuborg all of them tasted like strong bleach! This is beer line cleaner which is poisenes and can kill people. We mentioned this to the staff and all we got was abuse and complete rudeness from the manger. Would not recommend this place at all

I am appalled! Upon entry, my boyfriend and I were greeted with a scowl and a nod in the direction of our table all whilst the member of staff was on the phone which was very rude. The food was not up to par as some of it was overcooked for example the rice contained hard bits. For dessert, the ice cream was kept on top of shredded ice and not in a freezer so it was mostly melted. Some of the staff were more attentive to the costumers and friendlier. Wasted Β£15. Never going back again!

The food was ok and the service was fine. As with most buffet places, I felt like I was sat in a warehouse, its not particularly comfortable as its a bit cold.Service is good and prices are ok but I didnt love it.

It was amazing great food lots of different countrys to choose from, I could go on forever but the best bit was, the chocolate pancakes were amazing! You get to see, them make the pancakes and you get to see them make all the other food.πŸ˜„πŸ˜„πŸ˜„πŸ˜œπŸ˜œP.s. The chefs and the, waiters/waitress are the best they are really, kind and the best bit is they are child friendly. !!πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘ŒπŸ‘ŒπŸ˜„πŸ˜„

When a waiter comes over to the table at a restaurant and there is only one of the group of people that is out for the meal at the table and he is enquiring on what drinks everyone wants ... the one thing I do not want to hear from the waiter is "I have already been over once, I will come once more and that is it" ... this is what I experienced from one member of the waiting staff at Peachy Keens this evening - forgive me if Im wrong but waiters are supposed to visit tables on a regular basis be it once, twice or ten times during that night to confirm that everything is ok.As the evening went on and my group of 4 visited the buffet a few times ... our plates kept piling up without a hint of a waiter removing them.Poor customer service but cannot complain about the food.Needless to say I will not be going there a

All of the food out tasted bland, made me feel sick and the selection was pretty poor for food from around the world. The toilets were poorly maintained, the seats were loose and there was no soap. When I confronted the staff about the toilets they said "We already know about the seats and are waiting for them to be fixed" and when I ask "well could a sign be put up as my daughter almost feel into them" the waitress got really snotty, not too much to ask in my opinion, as for the soap I got told "we will get it sorted straight away" but with her attitude and the fact she was more bothered about talking to a friend I have little faith she went and got it done. I would recommend paying the extra and just going to Red Hot for a overall better experience.-Nottingham Branch.

Drinks are fairly expensive. Food is fantastic! All around the world buffet is great. Place was looking rather tatty when I last went. Cracked floor tiles, 1/2 a tile was actually missing near the bar area! But mega cheap. Tables are very close together. Chefs are amazing on the live/fresh cooked stations on a night. Not available in the day though so thats why its significantly cheaper at that time. Always love the food here anyway and thats what matters most :)

Considering this place is essentially an eat all you can buffet its great, it has food from all around the world including Indian, Chinese, Italian, Mexican and British food. The Indian food is especially good and they even make fresh food for you whilst you watch including fresh kebabs and currys. The desserts are not so great as with most buffets however I was still very impressed and I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and a nice environment at an affordable price.
