Best Buffets Singapore: Carousel, Colony, Edge, Peppermint, The Line Buffet Prices (2023)
Nothing gets Singaporeans going like a hotel buffet. After all, eating is our national hobby.
The only problem? The cost. Aside from atas Michelin-starred restaurants, buffets are pretty much the most lavish and expensive way to eat out. Sure, there’s the occasional credit card promotion and 1-for-1 hotel buffet offer, but more often than not, you’re gonna have to pay full price for a full spread.
Let’s clear something up: Paying the full buffet price doesn’t mean the buffet isn’t worth your money. It just means that you’ve got to be prudent about which buffets offer the best bang for your buck. Here’s our guide to the best hotel buffets in Singapore in 2023.

1. 8 best hotel international buffets (2023 prices)
Check out the list below to get yourself up to speed with the latest buffet prices before your next hotel buffet gathering with your foodie friends or family.
Generally, weekend prices are higher than weekday ones, and dinner costs more than lunch (just like wedding banquet prices!). Here are the adult prices for lunch and dinner buffets on weekdays and weekends:
Buffet prices for adults | ||||
Hotel and international buffets | Weekday lunch | Weekday dinner | Weekend lunch | Weekend dinner |
$71++ | $88++ | $78++ | $98++ | |
$74++ | $92++ | $78++ | $112++ | |
$68++ | $92++ | $88++ / $138++ | $108++ | |
$68++ | $98++ | $78++ | $108++ | |
$68++ / $78++ | $98++ / $108++ | $88++ / $108++ | $88++ / $98++ | |
$67.90++ | $75.50++ | $67.90++ | $84.95++ | |
$65++ | $85++ | $108++ | $95++ | |
$56++ | $105++ | $78++ | $115++ |
Buffet prices exclude alcoholic beverages, and are before GST and service charge.
While most of these restaurants define weekdays as Monday to Friday and weekends as Saturday and Sunday, there are several exceptions: Colony, Edge, The Line, Oscar’s, Rise. Kinda confusing, we know, but we’ve broken it down for you in this article. To get the deets or to find out the child pricing, just use the hyperlinks above to jump to their respective sections below!
Also, disclaimer: We referred to published prices to compile this list, expanding below on the caveats (e.g. valid only on certain days, timings, etc) we could find. However, we are only human. Please give the hotel/restaurant a call to confirm the prices and validity before heading down—just in case we missed anything, or if any terms and conditions have been amended since the time of writing.
2. Carousel buffet at Royal Plaza on Scotts ($71++ to $98++)

Located in Orchard at the Royal Plaza on Scotts, Carousel’s halal-certified international buffet dishes up seafood, Japanese salmon and tuna sashimi, oysters, mud crabs, tiger prawns, snow crab, Korean dishes, tapas, local dishes, and more.
On some days, Carousel also serves up special menus. From 3 May to 27 Sep 2023, they’ll feature a lobster and crab feast every Wednesday night, including lobster on ice, lobster paella, crab bisque, crab meat mentai pasta, and lobster laksa.
Is your mouth watering yet? If you’re blocking out calendar dates already, be sure to bring along your DBS/POSB or UOB credit card to get 15% off your total food bill from now till 31 Dec 2023.
Weekdays | Weekend | |||
Carousel buffet | Adult | Child | Adult | Child |
Lunch (12pm – 2pm) | $71++ | $38++ | $78++ | $41++ |
Dinner (6.30pm – 9.30pm) | $88++ | $48++ | $98++ | $52++ |

3. Colony buffet at Ritz-Carlton Hotel ($74++ to $112++)
View this post on Instagram
Ritz-Carlton Hotel’s Colony restaurant is best known for their afternoon high tea sets. The international buffet dinner was commonly lauded as one of the best luxury buffets in town, and commanded long queues in the past.
On Sundays, Colony hosts their Vintage Champagne Brunch, a lavish affair with unlimited champagne that starts at $228++ and can go up to $998++ for adults. Yup, that’s 1 grand per pax on a Sunday brunch!
But before you write Colony off as 100% unattainable with your current pay check, check out their weekday lunch spread instead. For those of us whose pockets don’t quite go as deep, their weekday lunch buffet costs a much friendlier $74++. Expect fresh seafood, sashimi, sushi, local Singaporean fare, grill and rotisserie cuts, dim sum, tandoor selections, and an assortment of desserts to end on a sweet note.
The dinner buffet menu is pretty similar, although you get a few more dishes in the spread such as freshly shucked oysters. On Fridays and Saturdays, dinners at Colony get a seafood spin with dishes like grilled Boston lobster, Spanish black mussel, and grilled octopus leg.
Colony buffet prices | ||
Adult | Child | |
Lunch (Mon – Fri) | $74++ | $37++ (6-12 years old) |
Lunch (Sat) | $78++ | $39++ (6-12 years old) |

Seafood dinner (Fri – Sat) | $112++ | $56++ (6-12 years old) |

4. Edge buffet at Pan Pacific Hotel ($68++ to $138++)
View this post on Instagram
Located on Level 3 of Pan Pacific Hotel, Edge‘s sprawling international buffet holds up to 316 guests at once. The buffet menu is pretty extensive as well, with all the usuals: seafood, sashimi, local dishes, Cantonese roast dishes, plant-based salads, hummus and kebabs, cheeses, hams, sausages, and desserts. Plus, from what we see, Edge’s buffet menu is perhaps one of the most vegetarian-friendly menus around town, with mains like roasted cauliflower, eggplant stew, carrot soup, and vegetarian curries and biryani.
If you’ve done a staycation at Pan Pacific Hotel over the past 2 years and became a member of Pan Pacific Privileges, you get to enjoy up to 15% off your bill. Better yet, the Pan Pacific Discovery loyalty programme will get you up to 25% off!
Edge is a great buffet option for families. Not only is the restaurant child-friendly, but it’s also wheelchair accessible and offers free parking—very useful for those families dining with seniors.
Edge buffet prices | Adult | Child (6 – 12 years old) |
Lunch (Mon – Fri) | $68++ | $34++ |
Dinner (Sun – Wed) | $92++ | $44++ |

5. Peppermint buffet at ParkRoyal Collection Marina Bay ($68++ to $108++)
View this post on Instagram
A post shared by PARKROYAL COLLECTION Marina Bay, Singapore (@parkroyalcollectionmarinabay)
Remember AquaMarine, that buffet restaurant that sat on level 4 of Marina Mandarin Singapore pre-COVID? Well since COVID-19, the buffet restaurant has gone through an overhaul. It now has a fresh face as Peppermint, a swanky buffet spot with pretty Instagram-worthy capsule seats in what is now ParkRoyal Collection Marina Bay. Like its predecessor AquaMarine, Peppermint is also halal-certified.
At Peppermint, expect an international buffet with usuals such as seafoods, sashimi, bread, roast meats and seafood, but also special chef creations like Chef Tor’s Fish Cheek Curry.
Peppermint buffet prices | Adult | Child |
Weekday lunch (Mon – Fri, 12pm to 2.30pm) | $68++ | $34++ |
Weekday dinner (Mon – Thu, 6.30pm to 10pm) | $98++ | $49++ |
Weekend lunch (Sat, Sun, public holidays; 12pm – 3pm) | $78++ | $39++ |
Weekend dinner (Fri – Sun, public holidays and their eves; 6.30pm to 10pm) | $108++ | $54++ |
Child pricing applies to children aged 6 to 12 years old.
Credit card promotions for up to 15% off your Peppermint buffet:
Citibank: 15% off with a Citibank credit card or debit card, for up to 12 people. Valid till 31 Dec 2023.
UOB: 20% off at Peppermint for UOB Reserve, Visa Infinite, Lady’s Solitaire, Privilege Banking, Regal and Empire Business cardmembers. Otherwise, get 15% off with other UOB credit cards. Valid till 31 Dec 2023.
HSBC: 15% off with any HSBC credit card, from now till 31 Jan 2024.
6. The Line buffet at Shangri-La Hotel ($68++ to $108++)
View this post on Instagram
The holy grail of all international buffets in Singapore is The Line at Shangri-La Hotel. Pre-COVID, you’d have to book your spot a month or so in advance to secure yourself a slot.
Then, you could brag about it to your colleagues while you wait for the entire month: “I’m going to The Line soon leh, what should I wear? What should I eat?” Of course, there is only one correct answer: “You’re going to an international buffet, wear loose clothes and eat everything lah!”
Good news for these buffet show-offers, even after taking a hit during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic, The Line’s buffet menu still features the Snow Crab, and salmon and tuna sashimi that they intend to spam eat. However, things like lobsters and scallops are only available on the Sunday Brunch and Seafood Extravaganza (Thursday night) menus, and we sadly don’t see oysters on any menu.
An important thing to note about The Line is that their lunch and dinner buffets only run from Thursday to Sunday. From Monday to Wednesday, you can only dine from their a-la-carte menu. Here are The Line’s buffet prices:
The Line buffet prices (Adults) | ||
Lunch (12.30pm – 2.30pm) | Dinner (6pm – 9.30pm) | |
Thursday | $68++ | $108++ |
Friday | $78++ | $98++ |
Saturday | $88++ | |
Sunday | $108++ | $88++ |
Children 6 to 11 years old pay 50% of the adult price. Children below 6 years old dine for free with every 1 paying adult.
7. Landmark 1-for-1 buffet at Village Hotel Bugis ($67.90++ to $84.95++)
View this post on Instagram
A post shared by The Landmark Singapore (@thelandmarksingapore)
Need a hotel setting and an international buffet menu to impress your date…but on a budget? At Village Hotel Bugis, Landmark’s 1-for-1 buffet at $84.95++ ($100.92 nett) for 2 pax is your best bet.
Wait, what is Village Hotel Bugis even? It’s that grey-ish looking building that you always pass by en route to Haji Lane, with escalators leading up to a dingy shopping arcade full of vintage tailor and Chinese cheongsam shops.
Yup, your date won’t be the most impressed with the walk there… so maybe you’d want to take a Grab or any other ride-hailing service directly to the hotel’s drop off point.
Landmark buffet offers 3 menus, namely Menu A, B, and C, and they’re all halal-certified and all applicable for the permanent 1-1 buffet deals Landmark has. The only downside is that the spreads aren’t quite as extensive as the others on this list. But then again, neither are their prices as high, so we can’t really complain.
Landmark buffet prices | ||
Adults | Children (3-7 years old) | |
1-1 Lunch (Mon – Sun) | $67.90++ | $15++ |
1-1 Weekday dinner (Mon – Thu) | $75.50++ | |
1-1 Weekend dinner (Fri – Sun, PH & eve of PH) | $84.95++ |
Lunch: 12pm – 2.30pm. Dinner: 6.30pm – 10pm.
8. Oscar’s buffet at Conrad Centennial Singapore ($65++ to $108++)
If you crave the variety of buffets but also can’t live without freshly cooked food, Oscar’s at Conrad Centennial Singapore may be the solution. Their buffet comes with both a sumptuous buffet spread as well as live stations, such as a noodle bar and Asian and Western stations. That doesn’t mean they skimp on the free-flow buffet items; you can expect the usual international buffet culprits such as lobsters and oysters on ice, sashimi, salads, and dishes from Asia and the West.
Oscar’s offers three buffet dining options: weekday lunch (12pm – 2.30pm), daily dinner (6pm – 10.30pm), and weekend brunch (12.30pm – 3.30pm). Here are their prices:
Oscar’s buffet prices | ||
Adults | Children (6 – 12 years old) | |
Weekday lunch (Mon – Fri) | $65++ | $32.50++ |
Mon – Tue dinner | $85++ | $42.50++ |
Wed – Sun dinner | $95++ | $47.50++ |
Weekend brunch | $108++ (soft drinks and juices only) / $188++ (with alcohol) | – |
Credit card promotions for up to 20% off at Oscar’s:
Citibank: 20% off lunch, brunch, or dinner buffet with a Citibank credit card or debit card. Valid till 31 Dec 2023.
UOB: 15% off lunch, brunch and dinner when you pay using a UOB credit card, from now till 31 Dec 2023.
9. Rise buffet at Marina Bay Sands ($56++ to $115++)
View this post on Instagram
A post shared by RISE at Marina Bay Sands (@riserestaurantsg)
Rise’s international buffet aims to give you “the world at your table”—their words, not ours. The classy restaurant located at the Marina Bay Sands Tower 1 lobby offers a selection of food from Thai and Vietnamese cuisines, local Singapore delights, and the usual buffet fare of seafood on ice, sashimi, sushi, carved meats, and a spread of Asian and Western desserts.
Their weekday lunch buffet stands out for being one of the most affordable ones on this list, starting from $68++. Who knew, right? And at Marina Bay Sands too! Plus, if you’re a Sands Rewards member, you can get 10% off for their lunch and dinner buffet.
Rise’s buffet prices | ||
Adults | Children (6-12 years old) | |
Weekday lunch (Mon – Fri) | $68++ | Each child under 12 years old dines for free with each paying adult. Otherwise for each additional child, the buffet cost price is 50% of the adult price. |
Weekend lunch (Sat) | $88++ (includes a welcome drink) | |
Weekend lunch (Sun) | $98++ (includes a welcome drink) | |
Weekday dinner (Sun – Thu) | $108++ | |
Weekend dinner (Fri – Sat) | $118++ |
10. Best Halal buffets in Singapore (2023)
Out of the above list of 8 most popular buffets in Singapore, 3 of them are halal-certified:
Carousel buffet (Royal Plaza on Scotts)
Peppermint buffet (Parkroyal Marina Bay)
Landmark buffet (Village Hotel Bugis)
