Za Za Bazaar World Banquet & Bar is a chain of two buffet restaurants in the United Kingdom, situated in the cities of Bristol and Newcastle.
The first restaurant opened in Bristol's Harbourside area just before Christmas in 2011. Its construction lasted 13 weeks and cost £3 million.[1] It was billed as the largest restaurant in the UK[2][3] and seats 1,000 people,[4] eclipsing Croydon's Cosmo restaurant in size, which seats 800. It was established with the plan to open another seven "super-restaurants" across the UK, in an investment of £10m that was rumoured to create 1,000 jobs in 18 months. However, the expasnion didn't happen, and a planned restaurant in Norwich has yet to be built. The food is split into the main categories of Far East, Tex Mex, European and Indian.[5]
