This review is taken from the current (2012) edition.
Apparently popular with parents looking for a place to park bags of shopping whilst their little darlings run amok around the shopping centre terrace, Buzzy’s isn’t the place to go if you’re looking for a refined restaurant. However, if you’re looking for a cocktail, a plate of nachos and a child-friendly venue, all wrapped up in a USA theme, this could be it. In true American style, there’s burgers-a-plenty and Tex-Mex dishes galore – or if you’re in for something lighter, there are also salads, sandwiches and nachos. For main courses, a burger coated in Cajun spices with a tangy blue cheese topping sadly has too many strong flavours going on at the same time. A Buzzy’s ‘classic’ – chicken breast drowned in creamy white wine sauce and, strangely, served on a sauce-soaked muffin, with bacon and a gratuitous blob of sour cream, is something akin to eggs benedict without the eggs. For dessert, the home-made sticky toffee pudding undoubtedly steals the show.
- High point: Window-shopping while you eat
- Low point: Service can lack enthusiasm
