Well worth trying. They offer 30 choices at lunchtime and 60 for dinner (after 6.00pm).
Downside, the only one, some of the old food is emptied on top of the new stuff. Why?
Prices? From £6.50 lunchtime weekday to £13.50 dinner buffet.
A very good menu, no one I have taken there has complained. 15 categories, with at least three choices in each group.
Good for vegetarians, plenty of choice..
Only expect expensive stuff like king prawns on the evening buffet. They are real king prawns, though! Squid, and other fish choices are available on the evening menu.
There are two ways of choosing your food. The first is through the buffet, the second through the Tepanyanki bar, where you choose your bits and watch them cooked before your very own eyes. Delicious!
TIP: Don't bother loading your plate up because it's an eat as much as you like menu. The staff will take your empty plate away pronto. DO use a new one for each dish. This means you taste each dish distinctly.
A wide open modern space, don't expect intimacy on eating, but very friendly to children.
No booking at Freeport as yet although people are already queing up when they open at twelve noon. The food is good, the service is good and they don't expect tips!
My recommendations: Double fried pork, mushrooms in oyster sauce, vegetable fried noodles, Tepenyaki, beef in black bean sauce. Try and enjoy: from Choosyboy

It's many years since I went to Braintree - what's Freeport? Can you park nearby and is disabled access good?

I love this place, the noodles are great! But I always get a bit carried away and find it hard to get out of my seat because I have eaten too much! :p
