During tourist seasons, lunch buffet restaurants at Ba Na Hills are always busy. To avoid the crowd, if possible, visitors should come earlier than 12 o’clock or later than 1:30 pm. However, to make everyone happy, restaurants will not allow more people to go in when it’s crowded inside. In this case, it’s needed to wait for a while, to let them refill the foods and clean up tables.

Ba Na Hills Buffet Lunch Tickets
Visitors can buy lunch/dinner buffet tickets either online or offline. In the ticket office at Ba Na Hills’s main entrance or at each restaurant, it’s possible to use both cash and cards to pay. Local companies often reserve buffet tickets in advance, to make sure that their customers always have a slot. If reserved in advance, it’s possible to skip the long line at official ticket offices.
The price is same if buying an entry ticket with lunch or seperate, but taking a combo ticket helps to reduce paper waste (this is important to know if you are interested in environment protection). At the ticket office in Ba Na Hills’s main entrance, cashiers will show a list and let buyers select one favourite restaurant (as long as it opens on that day). At the restaurant individually, the menu with dishes available on the day will be shown and by that, it’s easier for visitors to decide. Each ticket card has a QR code to scan. It’s no changeable and non refundable. Without name, visitors can give to a friend/family member to use if want to try something else.
If visitors take too much food but don’t eat, a monetary fine will be imposed. Don’t waste food!
If buying a Ba Na Hills ticket with lunch, visitors will receive one ticket card only with a QR code. At the cable car station, scan it to enter and take the cable car up the mountain, but please keep it. Later, at the restaurant, it’s needed to scan it again to use the food service. Name of the restaurant is shown on the card.
We advise visitors to take a photo for their own ticket after getting it from cashiers or travel agencies or tour guides. The photo won’t be used to replace the physical ticket card, but if lose it, the owners can use it as proof. In this situation, visitors should go to the customer service at Ba Na Hills or the restaurant where they eat, and then show cashiers there the picture to print the card again. Staff in the hill station are friendly and helpful as they try to do all the time!
Is Ba Na Hills Buffet Lunch Worth It?
The best way to try different dishes with a good price is going for a buffet. The most popular buffet (international buffet) at Ba Na Hills serves up to 90 dishes, including appetizer, main course and dessert as well as complimentary beverages. At Ba Na Hills itself or other main tourist attractions, with a similar price, visitors may be not able to have many choices to eat like that.
On the other hand, if don’t come from Asia, there are various food ingredients, spices and dishes at Ba Na Hills buffet that are new or make you curious (like snails, frogs, herbs, fruits). From this point of view, it’s not just a meal, it is also a culinary experience. First timers can try typical Vietnamese foods such as pho noodle soup, crispy rice pancakes (banh xeo), fried spring rolls (nem ran), fresh rice paper rolls (banh cuon), sweet soup (che)… without a limitation or time. Foodies must book anyway, to explore one of the most famous cuisines in the world. Not only including a great variety, Ba Na Hills buffet also is clean, delicious, and beautifully garnished.
Due to all above reasons, we believe that Ba Na Hills buffet is worth it and good value for money. However, in high tourist seasons, restaurants will be busy, visitors may not find one table to sit or won’t see too many food options because the kitchen needs time to make and serve a new plate. We advise going to eat a bit earlier or later, or wait a couple of minutes to let everything back to a good preparation. Table and kitchen service at Ba Na Hills won’t make you disappointed.
