Been eating here for many years, when it was 28/28 then Academy & now The Crown.

We've always found that it is great value always plenty of choice & my kids love it especially my son who loves to go pick all his own ingredients then watch it been cooked.

It gets our thumbs up!

Crown Buffet ( used to be called 28 28 chinese academy) Gower street Leeds.Arrived at 8.30pm , the restaurant was`t supposed to close until 11pm.

Starters were scrappy and lacking in choice. My main meal which was freshly cooked from the Mongolian buffet was nice but despite asking I was unable to have any boiled rice.

Chicken curry ( the only thing that the kids like) was also missing. The main reason for taking the kids there was because of the ice cream machine, but it was dismantled for cleaning by 9.30.

Staff annoyingly mopped the floor under our feet as we ate with the aroma of bleach permeating our food.

My concerns to the manager were met with contempt and no apology was offered. The bill for 2 adults and 2 children was over £50

cheap and cheerful!
