Harvest Buffet at The Star Gold Coast (in the space formerly occupied by the longstanding Food Fantasy) is a decadent and fresh buffet, open seven days for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The stunning space boasts floor-to-ceiling windows with dreamy views of the lush pool area. The 500-seat buffet restaurant also features alfresco seating and there’s an exclusive 44-seat private dining room for more intimate gatherings. It’s truly a wonderland of food here, with a carvery station with succulent meats, Chinese barbecue and Asian-inspired stations, an Italian section with rustic dishes and hand-made pizza and pasta offerings, glorious charcuterie spreads and cheeses, vibrant salads, as well as an eye-catching arrangement of fresh local hot and cold seafood. There’s also a height-appropriate children’s buffet, as well as a very decadent dessert station with an endless series of cakes, slices, ice-creams, hot desserts and a very  Willy Wonka-esque 2-metre chocolate fountain.

Hanging for a Christmas feast (with all of the trimmings) but don’t want to wait until December 25? Visit Harvest Buffet during December to experience Festive Month! You’ll be delighted with all of your Harvest favourites along with a delicious spread of Christmas-themed eats, available all month long! On rotation for lunch and dinner will be dishes like clove and honey-baked ham with grilled pineapple, butter-glazed roast turkey, Angus sirloin slow roasted with rosemary and garlic, sage and cranberry stuffing and creamy cauliflower mornay with garlic and herb crumbs. As for desserts, think steamed pudding with custard, bread and butter pudding, yule logs, eggnog and a DIY gingerbread man station! For information and bookings, head here.
