Quick info
About Bon Pan Asian Buffet
Bon Pan Asian Buffet is an all-you-can-eat restaurant on the upper mall at Merry Hill in Brierley Hill, serving over 150 dishes at a fixed price across Chinese, Indian, Japanese teppanyaki, and Thai cuisines. The spread ranges from curry and pizza to chicken nuggets, with apple pie, cakes, and ice cream among the dessert options, and halal choices are available. Seating is walk-in in a large, open dining room with tables spaced apart, and a queue can form before diners are shown to a table. Once seated, guests are given a set time to eat, and staff move through the room clearing plates and topping up the food trays throughout service. The dessert selection closes out the meal after the savoury stations.

Customer Review Summary
Most reviewers return for the sheer range of dishes, with Chinese and Indian plates, pizza, salad, food for little ones, and a dessert spread of cakes, ice cream and fruit, and several point to halal options. Close behind is the staff, described as friendly and quick to clear plates and top up containers, with the open, spacious room and clean toilets also praised. Several call it good value for family meals and birthday celebrations. The caveats are real, though. Two evening diners at around 8:15 report cold food, watery curry and an old-looking apple pie, one saying a child was sick afterwards, and one was reported to management by a waitress and later given a discount. A lukewarm reviewer finds quantity over quality, with chicken nuggets and pizzas short on cheese. Others mention queues, noise and children running around, and one calls the staff a bit slow. One diner who booked online and was pleased by the clearing of plates describes a smooth Saturday evening.

“Our visit to Bon Pan Asian Buffet for my sister Birthday was exceptional. The variety of dishes was impressive, each prepared with care and rich flavour. The service was warm, the environment spotless, and the overall experience truly enjoyable. A wonderful place for a relaxed meal with great food.”

“We have been here a few times now but I must say I don't actually ENJOY the food here. It's more about quantity than quality. Our last visit even the basics like chicken nuggets and pizza were not great. Hardly any cheese on the pizzas. Not much taste to the actual food. Just lots and lots of options. We do still go there as makes for an easy celebration meal for family and people can help themselves. Don't rate the toilets very much. Could do with a good clean. Overall ok.”

“We had low expectations for Bon Merry Hill, having been to the Bon in Liverpool where we were exceptionally underwhelemed. We were very surprised when we turned up here. The premises were clean, bright and looked well managed. We booked online, which seemed to be a different system to what I assume was with people booking by phone/person, so possibly an area for improvement. We went on a Saturday evening and the place was busy. It wasnt hectic, but everything seemed to flow smoothly. The food seemed to be replenished quickly when low, so that was good. What couldnt be controlled is with other guests where they seeming let their kids run a bit on the “wild side”. The staff here were attentive and cleared used plates quickly. A great plus. Sometimes its just a shame that some guests make a mess of the food, but thats almost to be expected these days. We found the food here to be much better than the Bon in Liverpool. When we visited, it seemed to be managed really well. We were impressed with the dessert, except when some guests take a excessive amount of butter agajn, fhe restaurant can do little about that. All in all, a good visit. We will visit again as and when we are in the area.”

“Come in at 8:10, paid nearly £100 for 2 adults and 3 kids. Manager trying to pen people in like sheep. Cold cold food. This is a hr and half before it’s due to shut. Honestly told so many people about how good the place is but it’s awful my son has gone to the toilet to be sick (his idea to come) curry like water apple pie that looks like they feel off the tree months ago. It’s horrendous never coming again. Only positive there is one polite member of staff the blonde girl allowed us to move away from the drunk party AGAINST her managers wishes. 1 star is one to many please stay away.”

“Very disappointed- before the staff say it was late in the evening , you can clearly see the time of 8:15 on my picture - I understand with all you can eat they won’t put all new food out at 9pm but I think nearly 2 hrs after a 20min wait for a table in ample. Un beknown to the waitress that reported me to management I speak fluent mandarin (don’t speak down to customers) One savour is they gave us a discount at the end - very disappointed as we chose to spend our Saturday evening here”
