Hi were going for our second visit on 31st August & would like to go in pizza planet.  It was always closed last time we went, & am sure I read somewhere it's only open for a few hours a day?? Is this true?  Think it's more for the experience of seeing it rather than the food so is it worth it?

It does have extremely odd and unreliable opening times. That being said, I would genuinely avoid it like the plague. The theming is great but leaves a lot to be desired and I wouldn't even waste your money.

Really?? Right thanks I don't do pizza or pasta anyway so was a bit of a waste for me just wanted to go in it

If it's open, you can just go and have a look inside.
If you don't like pizza or pasta, then it's a complete waste.

But if you do like pizza or pasta, please go to Bella Notte or Hathi's pizza place, in my opinion much better then the tiny squares of pizza you get at Pizza Planet.
Ok, it's all you can eat, but still ...

Thanks everyone am swaying towards using the money we would of paid for that & putting it with our meal tickets & going to inventions

I second the notion of avoiding it. It was open on our last trip and we went thinking you can't go wrong with pizza & pasta, but it was awful. Theming, buffet presentation, quality of food/desserts - it was all just very very "off"! Def go to Inventions, no competition!

It is what it is - Pizza and Pasta buffet. Usually around 4 different type of pizza, 3 different types of plain pasta with a choice of either bolognaise or alfredo sauce. Unlimited cold drinks included, hot drinks (I think) are extra.

Various tart, cake and mousse puddings.

As its a buffet, you can stay (and rest) as long as you want. Children can enjoy a play area.

I think the maintenance on the place has been kept to a minimum as its rumored to getting a refurb/retheme.

Opening days seem to be random.

Pizza Planet is closed for the whole of July and August anyway according to the restaurant opening hours schedule.

Of course it's closed July & august, you wouldn't want it open or busy during peak season would you. I've been different times of the year & have never seen it open. I've just wrote it off completely & don't bother even going round to check if it's open.


dlpowl

No, we've never seen it open either.  My kids always want to go but I've heard such bad stuff about it that I'm always relieved when it's shut!

The food wasn't great but the play area was good for young kids. Last time we were in it our kids were toddlers now they are 6 and 7 not seen it open since then I don't think. Isn't it being refurbed into something star wars or am I getting confused

Never been to Pizza Planet as it's never been open when I've been but I wouldn't go if it was! Lucky Nugget is a good shout! I went there for lunch on my last trip...really good burgers and the seating area is like a Western Saloon, it's gorgeous!
