Little COSMO | All You Can Eat World Buffet Restaurant, Newcastle

You're on Newgate Street in the city centre, walking into a place that doesn't try to be precious about it. Little COSMO does what it says—world buffet, all you can eat, reasonable prices. It's the kind of spot where you can load your plate with Chinese, Indian, Japanese and European dishes without someone making you feel rushed. The room's got that comfortable, slightly no-nonsense vibe of a proper neighbourhood buffet; families and groups pile in at weekends, mates grab lunch midweek. You pay one price, eat what you want, go back for seconds without anyone tutting. It's straightforward and unpretentious—exactly what Newcastle needs more of.
