About China Royal
On Queensway in Bognor Regis, China Royal is a Chinese restaurant built around an all-you-can-eat buffet, with soup, sauce, rice, mains, and a dessert table laid out for diners to serve themselves. The kitchen also lists duck in orange sauce, duck and pancakes, and chicken wings in honey sauce, alongside chow mein and Hong Kong style sweet and sour chicken. Prawn fried rice and chicken and sweetcorn soup round out the counter. Tables are set with cutlery and plates, and the restaurant runs on a walk-in basis rather than reservations. It sits a short walk from Butlins, making it a stop for visitors as well as locals. Free parking is available on the bays outside after 5pm on weekdays, easing access for evening diners.

Customer Review Summary
Duck and pancakes draws repeat praise as a favorite starter, with several diners also naming the chicken and sweetcorn soup, prawn fried rice, pork chow mein, and duck in orange sauce as fast, fresh highlights served with friendly, attentive staff. Regulars describe the cooking as authentic and consistently good, some noting they return yearly and rarely even reach the mains because the starters and soup satisfy them first. A few call it reasonably priced and convenient for visitors staying nearby. Against this, complaints recur around bland or poorly executed dishes: one reviewer describes flavourless chicken fried rice and unmixed veg chow mein, another found the crispy chilli beef too chewy, and a separate visit to the all you can eat buffet reported barely warm food, an unrefilled and limited selection, and staff clearing tables before closing. One reviewer also recounts leaving a wallet behind and having it returned by the business.

“Absolutely amazing tasting food. We popped in here while on holiday and couldn’t recommend it more. The service was super friendly, food came quickly and most of all the food was some of the best Chinese I’ve eaten. I would definitely eat here again and the whole family agreed.”
