Reviews for Sandy's Castle Restaurant at The Beach Retreat in Winter Haven, FL

Are there twice for the breakfast buffet. Extremely busy and crowded. It's not actually a breakfast buffet! The server brought a... platter to our table, as my family has varying dietary needs I asked for other things that were not on the standard buffet andour server was so visibly frustrated every time I asked him to get something. I would have loved to have gotten it myself butlike I said it's not a buffet your server has to bring every single thing to you whether that is jelly, ketchup, sugar, tea,etc. The next day I ordered to go so I wouldn't have to deal with it an overstressed overworked server and they forgot close tohalf of what I asked for up front. I just felt like I was bothering everybody. If it's their design that it's not a buffet andyou're still tipping the server, the server shouldn't roll their eyes at you when you ask for jelly to put on your biscuit orwhat kind of cereals they have for your kid.

Rose was a doll we had her for breakfast as well...only good thing about that place was her Sandy's does not offer non pork... products which I thought was not right also they advertise they do dinner but you can't take away dinner you have to take awayfrom their lunch menu...which sucked and it was limited order..I was forced to go eat it there not wanting to and what I didn'tfinish I took it with me back.. like seriously ???? The amores fireplace was a joke they said it stared at 700pm by 700pm noone came with no explanation...they need to get there act together Read more

I’m writing this review for the breakfast buffet. It was included in our stay at the Legoland beach resort . Chef Justin knows... how to make breakfast. It was delicious and I am not a breakfast person but I wanted seconds!!! The biscuits are steamed thenbaked for added fluffiness. I would eat breakfast here again. Great play area for kids in the restaurant and lots of foodchoices for them. Dinner is a whole other story and I sure hope chef Justin was not the one preparing it.Dinner tasted likelunchroom food/Denny’s. Beware if you purchased a Groupon it does not cover beverages which are $3.25. The Groupon did notcover appetizers or dessert all of which are not worth paying for. Go dine elsewhere come back for breakfast. Delicious!! Read more

Breakfast buffet was very good. Tater tots were stale and unedible though. Dinner was less than desirable. Ribs tasted like... they had been cooked much earlier in the day. Perhaps even the day before. Kids Mac & cheese was also old and tough. Kidswouldn’t eat it. Burger and pork sandwich were ok at best. Everything generally tasted old and somewhat stale like badcafeteria food. Staff was the bright spot though. Everyone was extremely friendly and genuinely courteous. We had coupons fordinner both nights. Not sure we would eat there for dinner otherwise. Breakfast though, is a winner. Read more

Awesome place to eat! The breakfast buffet is so nice and perfect for families with small kids... lots of options and GREAT... service at every angle. For dinner, there are limited options BUT the servers are fantastic and really do care that you have agreat experience. If you get Brenton as a server, you will see exactly what I'm talking about!

Love the LEGO play area for kids to play while you eat. Breakfast buffet was great. If staying for more than 3 days I feel you... would start to run out of dinner options you liked but the food was good. LEGO symbol stamped in the top of burgers and LEGOshaped waffles on the buffet were a cute touch! Read more

Great service and fun dinner options. Great LEGO area for the kids to play. The tacos and jerk chicken wings were good. The... LEGO play area in the restaurant is great for the kids. Read more

It’s a typical Theme Park Resort restaurant. Dinner menu is overtly priced and offers limited items. Restaurant area is huge... and servers were great. Food quality was great. Read more
