We went for a Saturday lunch buffet because we enjoy going for this as a family once in a while. After reading the earlier review, I signed up for the A La Carte membership for the millennium hotels the day before and at checkout I...gave them my phone number and got a carpark coupon. No drama. Ok now on to the review: 1. Because of the earlier review, I had few hopes of a good customer service experience. I was pleasantly surprised, staff are friendly and pro-active. Water was topped up regularly and our plates were whisked away. No issues whatsoever. Plus a lady came around the tables to talk about the A La Carte membership so they do make it relatively easy for people to get the complimentary parking coupon. 2. Food quality was good! The lamb and chilli crab were done well and there was such a wide variety of meats and sausages. Well-presented too. The chickens looked so inviting. 3. There was a really long queue to get to the food, which can be managed by perhaps adjusting the layout. For example, the pasta station was under-visited, but tucked away at start of the queue. If this became the live station for meats, then you can have 2 queues and people can move through faster. 4. Dessert table was fantastic. And I want to say that there was also a selection of teas. It wasn’t just “one kind, take it or leave it”. It made for a really good experience.More

To start off with, this recent visit of mine to this cafe was the 4th this year (though I didn't review every visit if there is nothing much different from the previous visit) and I thought I would pen it down of this "dramatic" experience....We went for the lunch buffet on a weekday, the very first time on weekday, as our previous visits were usually on weekends. Our last visit was in June (before that was March and April). The buffet spread was very limited as compared to it's weekend one and also with other hotels within the same price or class range, but overall the food were ok. Some of the nice food included the teriyaki chicken and satay (both were well marinated), salted fish fried rice, stewed mutton and beef, roast chicken etc. For improvements, good if they can provide another soup choice, possibly Asian one, as there was only the cauliflower cream soup on the day of our visit. The vegetarian fried bee hoon, some parts were not cooked well (as it was hard like iron steels or charred) and limited pastries. The layout and arrangement was quite squeezy at the main buffet counter and always a long queue, which they can space out the salad/fruits to the other side, with the pastries or seafood section as there were ample empty spaces and looked so sparingly unlike the main section, overloaded. Coffee and tea were inclusive in the buffet spread. Service was generally fine as staff were efficient in clearing used plates. However, there was an issue that I think was unnecessary but the cafe had made things "difficult" for diners. In order to enjoy complimentary carpark, one will have to sign up for the hotel membership. (this should not be compulsory, the very time we encountered after visiting so many hotels locally and overseas) However, we had already signed up for the membership before from our previous visits in March and June (it was an Indian supervisor/manager then who passed us the membership form to sign up) and I showed the softcopy of the "My Millennium" card from my phone to the cashier before the battery went flat. But the staff/cashier insisted that we needed to sign up for the "new" membership again. Our memberships are still active as we do receive the updates and news from the hotel regularly. So she asked us to scan the QR code to sign up but it didn't work even she tried to do so several times but failed. Staff was inflexible. We spent quite a lot of time doing this. All other hotels would gladly give out complimentary carpark vouchers even without asking. And also wondered how come we needed to sign up for the membership again as we just did so about 2 months ago. Is this the right way to up the membership base? (even repeated ones) In fact, just 2 days ago we visited its sister hotel, Orchard Hotel for buffet, the service was superb (food was outstanding) and staff gladly gave out parking tickets to us without asking, or requesting us to sign up for membership in order to enjoy complimentary carparking. I think this was not being customer oriented. Because of this incident, it somehow dampened our spirit. We would not revisit again considering the service and limited spread of food. (Btw, the carpark fee was about $20, way even higher than in Orchard area) With the price, we can go other hotels with better food and service, do checkout my earlier reviews for them. #food #foodism #foodporn #instafood #eat #foodgasm #foodgram #foodlover #foodie #foodphoto #foodpic #foodpics #buffet #foodpornshare #foodstagram #foodaholic #igfoodies #foodiegram #foodforfoodies #eatstagram #instagramfood #instabuffet #foodoftheday #singaporeeats #eeeeats #dinning #foods #foodpornography #foodiesofinstagram #singaporefoodie #sgbuffet #singaporebuffet #buffetsgMore

Food are not that great as on the photo and CHOPE shown and recommended the snow crab claws were overcooked that the fresh are stuck against the shell the roast beef and lamb were tough and stale bbq prawns and crayfishes were burnt and mentioned...as KING PRAWN after deshelled prawn become shrimp cooked food on the buffet table were not hot and don't look appetizing the dessert table waffles were burnt and 3 types of petite cakes on display look pathetic diner paid $73.44 for the kind of buffet I'm totally regret trusting CHOPE promotion on this cafe my biggest disappointment was the cafe don't have wet tissue for diner to clean the hand after having the seafood and need to wear their mask and the answer from the Manager walk to the toilet to wash your hand how to wash your hand when you need to wear your mask and then can walk to the cafe im totally disappointed the professionalism and remark of the manager I strongly will not trust Chope feedbackMore

Came again for the lovely chicken pie and curry puff, lovely tea and signature coffee. Warm and attentive service given by Fireuz,Shawn,Chanel and Saravanan. Special thanks to Suja who made special arrangements even though she is in JB.

Am impressed by Restaurant Manager Mr. Firvz, Asst. Restaurant Manager Ms Suja and Server Mr.Bluant for their excellent customer service rendered for my birthday celebration at cafe 2000. Good ambience with succulent seafood spread under the promotion,will return for more and recommend.👍

The 3 tier tea was sumptuous. Could not finish and had 3 containers to pack home. Fine tea and coffee. Excellent service provided by Suja,Shawn and Farius. Compliments from our party of 10

It has been 2 years since my last visit here and the cafe is as usual cosy and bright with lovely ambience. Think it has undergone for renovation and touch-ups. (We used to dine here quite often in the past and you can refer to...my earlier reviews of this cafe here too) We were led to our table by the friendly staff. Although the SMM for Covid19 has been relaxed, ordering of food was still done through "system or handwritten paper" where the latter would be handed over to the staff and the dishes would be served to us directly. The variety of food was ok (more towards western) though could be more but the quality of food was great, with a blend of western and local dishes, with the nice seafood platter too. Some of the yummy food included the sirloin steak and lamb chop, grilled salmon fish, breakfast sunny up set, deep fried chicken wings (a little too salty though), chilli crabs, satay, laksa (not too thick for the gravy unlike others) and the pastries are great too, like the durian puff and oneh oneh cakes etc. Some others were passable like the chicken porridge, actually it was quite nice except that it was not hot enough by right it should. The beef stewed was overly done. Coffee and tea, fresh cut fruits, chocolate foundae and ice cream (with various flavours) are inclusive in the buffet spread too. If they can include a few more local food that would be perfect as currently most of the dishes are western. The staff were friendly and efficient in service, in serving food and clearing used plates from time to time. Taking into consideration the food, service and ambience, it was good value for money. We did enjoy our dinning here. #foodgasm #yummyfood #food #gluttony #foodism #foodie #instafood #buffet #instayum #instabuffet #foodporn #cafe #foodstagram #foodpic #instagramfood #foodaholic #foodiesofinstagram #foodpics #buffetfeast #westernfood #foodlover #foodforfoodies #foodiegram #foodgasm #foodgram #foodphoto #delicious #buffetlunch #buffettable #chefsofinstagramMore

We had seafood buffet dinner on a sat evening celebrating a frz birthday. Seafood on ice consists of lobster, prawn, scallop etc. They are all tasteless. So disappointed. Crispy pork crackling roll tasted overnight food. Chilli crab not nice. Basically, foods on the menu all...tasted below average. Hawker centre food taste much more better. Not worth to try.More

Will visit this place again satisfied customer here. And thanks to you staff “Princess” very accommodating and friendly. Great service

Celebrated my 40th birthday in Cafe 2000. The service and food was great. Highly recommended and will visit again

Took the high tea set. Chicken Pie was delicious. Curry puff ok. Croissant nice. Pandan cake, shrimp good.

Feels good to be back at Cafe2000 post worldwide lockdown. Feels even greater and elated to be greeted by familiar faces once again. Thanks again Ms Amelyn & Mr Firus for being here for all of us!
