Well disappointing food, not worth the £13.95 at all. Food was shocking. Pizza like eating cardboard, no flavour to it at all. Salad was not edable. Over all poorly made and set out it was better how they had it before.

Our final night of holiday we chose to save this to last as it was an "all you can eat" buffet. Apart from nothing was edible!!! From pizza with zero toppings, to margarita like cardboard, pepperoni with ONE piece per slice. The 4 varieties of pasta were all as bland as each other! My pasta mad son didn't even eat 1 plate full!!! He salad was old and dry. The coleslaw had a disgusting vinegarete on. And the potato salad was far from diserable!! It's really ruined our final evening! A family of 5 cost just short of £70! (Not including drinks) And we all left starving!!!!! Go to the fire House instead!!!!!!! Butlins should be ashamed to keep them on sight!!! I will add the staff (waitresses) were very polite, but did avoid tables that they could see had NOT enjoyed the "meal". Avoid at all costs!!!!!

Better going to asda and getting the smart price lasagne & carbonara, pizza better too. Just rank rotten. I luv Italian food but please, don't waste your money on this place, especially if you have the dining package as we had premium so walked out and there. Butlins, please shut this place.

Slightly absurd experience at Ludos. Our waiter, although pleasant, had a very long beard. He must’ve just come off of his break after eating some food as he had 2 baked beans tangled up in the hairs, I felt like they were staring at me. They were slightly dangling off and I thought they’d end up falling in my toddlers hair. He also smelt like baked beans. He may need to invest in a mirror to further this happening again. All in all, I don’t think I’ll eat beans again.

Used to be brilliant, but now the macaroni cheese and the meatballs appeared to have been prepared over a Luke warm bath, the pizza you could put a stamp on and send it off to head office! The best tasting thing on the table was the slice of lemon in the water, way too expensive for its own good now a days DO NOT GO!!!!!

Do not go, we had a terrible time you cannot see the buffet until you have paid and it is over priced even with the child discount they only have 3 selections of pasta and cheapest quality pizza you still have to pay for drinks and dessert. MUST AVOID GO TO ANY OTHER RESTAURANT IN BUTLINS BUT NOT THIS ONE

Went here today, was told it served only buffet as they didn't have a menu for over a year but there is a menu on their app Sat down for buffet which you need to pay before sitting down, was pizza,pasta and salad Pizza - Pre made not too bad Pasta - Flavourless Salad - difficult to get wrong this was OK £13.95 per adult £7.50 per child - £1 deals today I regretted going here and won't be returning it was by far not worth the money, ice cream was separate and drinks separate too, pizza hut it cheaper and better quality and the drinks and ice cream includes

All show and no action . Unfortunately, it hard to sort of know what you having until you are actually seated . It was abit disappointing tbh . Like other have mentioned all this is is a selection of different types of pastas , the meatball and a very small selection of salad . In all honestly I did expect choices of say lasagne, fries, s.bolognese . Range of salad with cheeses such as feta or or goats or something similar. The pizzas were all thin bases fairly fresh or were regularly replaced tiny bits of mozzarella and abit of topping . A few variety of pizza slices to pick from . The drinks we just brought refill cordial and coke and we fresh and replaced when resquested. I wasn't too shocked bythe bill price was worried it was meant to be more , but definitely wasn't worth what I paid either To make improvements more dishes need to be offered , cheeses should be available . Such as lasagne, s bolognese and one or two more Italian dishes . For buffet price I would atleast expect the ice cream to be included . The profits margins here are through the roof and they wouldn't lose much by atleast including ice cream or dessert in the buffet price . The meatballs I thought was nice , slightly on the colder side . Pizza slices wasn't too bad but I wouldn't say it oozing with flavour . The pasta dishes were decent most of it was all edible and the lack of flavouring would be due to this place being dedicated to kids so it expected that food would be mild or non existence.

Living in Skegness, we decided to have a meal at Ludos which is based on Butlins. The reason why we ate here is because we had some family members who was staying at Butlins on a Monday to Friday basis. We have a caravan owners pass as my parents have a caravan on there. We had arranged to meet family at 5.30pm on Thursday 15th June outside Ludos. We had to wait around 20 minutes for a table as unfortunately they don't do bookings it's just a case of turn up and wait your turn for a table. There was 4 familys in front of us. I asked for a table of 8 and a baby's high chair. The only table for 8 people was empty. When we got called for we sat at the table for 8 people what was empty when we walked in so not sure why we wasn't able to just sit at that table when I walked in. When we sat down, I got told that someone will be with us in a few minutes to take your drinks orders. The only menu that was on the table was a drinks menu. A few weeks ago we was in Butlins and saw a price. £8.95 for children, £10.95 for adults or we could upgrade to £12.95 which includes a drink. So we was basing it on that same price. How wrong was I? We had 'Ian' who was dealing with our order. We ordered drinks and he was telling us just go up there (pointing towards the buffet area) and get a plate, and knife and forks and help yourself. We didn't get a price list nor any information on desserts etc. The waiter 'Ian' was not nice to us as when he spoke to us he was looking the opposite way and we found it hard to understand him. We went for our plates and food. I was very shocked to see what food was available. 1st tray, pasta in a very dry tomato sauce (most probably tin tomatos) 2nd tray was pasta in what was supposed to be cheese sauce, again very dry. 3rd tray was pasta carbanara which again looked very dry and the next one was pasta, chilli again very dry. 5th tray was very small meatballs in a tomato sauce. Next section was pizza and garlic bread, pizza was hard and over cooked and garlic bread was so thin you could see through it. Next section was salad. So in my opinion this was not a good combination. Yes its an Italian restaurant but where is the long spagetti and the bolognaise sauce, what about Lasgne? Nope nothing like that. Not even any chips to go with the pizza. The taste of the food....well there was no flavour to anything. The food was cold and dry pasta, you may aswell had plain pasta it was awful. I was kind of embarrassed as the family members who was staying at butlins saw it and didn't bother eating anything. They just had a drink instead. I couldn't eat anymore after 1 small plate full of food. The only desserts what was offered was ice cream in a small tub which was £2.95 extra. We didn't bother. I asked 'Ian' for the bill. When I looked through the bill I had noticed that I have been charges for 4 adults and 3 children. I did enquire with 'Ian' about it and he was not happy at all. It was like everything was to much trouble. He then came back again with a different bill. This time 4 adults and 1 child I said no that's not right either. I asked what are the child ages up to. He said 15. I said right the girl at the end (my daughter) is 15. The lad in the middle (my son) he is 17 and 'Ian' said well he will have to pay adults, I replied yeah thats ok. I carry on, the girl here (my other daughter) is 12. I said I have eaten and my husband has eaten. I said the 2 small kids and these 2 adults have only had a drink. So we have had 3 adults and 2 children plus the drinks aswell. Well 'Ian' started huffing and puffing swinging his ipad around in his hand and cursing under his breath. Honestly no need for it. Anyway as I have a caravan owners pass I didn't get 20% discount and I ended up paying £61.20 But please note if you was to still think about eating here they change there prices daily, it's more expensive during adult weekends! The worse meal I have ever had along with the service. I would rather eat somewhere else next time. But hey, you have all been warned.....

Need to change the all you can eat!! Went last year and had a lovely meal. Went this week and buffet. Food is absolutely awful. Pasta watery and cold, pizza hard. 4 choices of pasta???? Not many choices of pizza. It's self serve so kids running all over, helping g themselves and slopping food all over counter!! Was bedlam!! Had between us 4 pieces of pizza, 2 sml portions of pasta and a drink. £22. Definitely not a good idea changing.

We ordered our 3 year old son a tomato pasta dish. It was described as a tots portion aged for children 2- 5 years old. When it came it was in a tiny dish that wasn't full. Perhaps four mouthfuls of food. We were never asked if our food was ok untill we had eaten. My son was obviously still hungry so I explained to the waitress that my son's pasta dish wasn't full and it was tiny! I found the staff rude. Their response was that I could purchase a second meal and that they would pass on my feedback about the portion sizes. The manager was confrontational, she approached me saying "Is there a problem." "That is just how it is." We ended up purchasing more food. By the time it arrived my son wasn't interested in eating more and was fed up of waiting at the table. Finally I told the waitress I wanted to make a complaint and asked if I could have the customer services email to do so. The waitress Holly, instead gave me her own email lol. I questioned if she was a manager to which she said no. I waited that long for her to return with the email address that I left. Very small portions and not good value for money.Children's tomato pasta dish £4.95 size shown in picture and it wasn't even full.

While I have been a regular visitor to Ludo’s for the last 4/5 years and have almost always got the same meal it’s never the same twice.I always start with bread and oils.Year 1 lots of variety of bread with 4 different oils and it was lovely. Year 2 no variety of oil just a balsamic and oil dip with little breadYear 3 lots of bread with only a garlic and herb dipThis year 2 oils, 1 balsamic and oil and the other was so bland I can’t say what it actually was. Instead of genuine olive or tomato bread all I got was toasted nonsense. I have a 7 year old son who only wanted pasta, ham and cheese without any sauce and the waitress was so put out I nearly left . Finally how it can continue to call itself a genuine Italian restaurant when the still don’t make fresh pasta is pretty pathetic. Finally to finish be prepared to pay a premium rate for anything you order. Perhaps the only thing premium about Ludo’s is the price. If you drive perhaps the best thing is to go to one of the many great restaurants or bars that do bar meals in the locality. There are many that are far better and cheaper

The pizza from Ludos is excellent. 2 adults, 2 children including unlimited drinks, 3 starters and 3 mains £60. Not too bad price wise. They do a lunchtime deal for £4.95 which includes an 8" pizza and a salad. The venue is clean, the staff are friendly and it is a pleasant atmosphere. I would love to see a Pizza Buffet style option at lunchtimes. All in all a very nice place to eat.

We wanted to go somewhere nice for food, we cousins gone into Skegness but l after looking at the menus available in the resorts we decided to stay which obviously meant I could drink and didn’t have to drive! We were greeted and sat all fine, when the lady approached to order drinks, I asked what alcoholic drink my girlfriend ( who was 17) could have to drink with her meal, being the meal was starters, and mains! The lady replied saying a soft drink. She obviously wasn’t trained and didn’t know the laws! The starter came Andrade it up, we had the mushrooms bruschetta, and a anti pasti, which were both very enjoyable. When the main came, on first appearance it was okay, but the bowls both had food on the Sid and marks where they had attempted to remove the food! My girlfriend had The prawn and roquito pepper risotto, which she immediately disliked because of the strong chilli! The menu read chilli, but being a chef, I think if a dish contains Jalapeños chillis, it should be stated on the menu, as this isn’t a little hint of chilli! She also had about 7 small frozen prawns! My chicken and Chorizo (that I only was able to enjoy half of because of having to swap with my girlfriend so she would enjoy part of her main) was stodgy by the time it had got to the table. The chicken was so so dry. I actually thought it was out the packet, pre cut chicken!!

Was very suprised by how nice this was given that holiday park food if usually a bit hit and miss. The kids had pizza and I had the spaghetti bolognaise. My pasta was piping hot and very tasty. It's a standing joke I always moan about the food and send something back (I just like hot food!) but this was all great. Will definitely return.

We've been here quite a few times so we know what to expect. The pizza's, pasta dishes and garlic bread are nice. The other dishes that they try to do (lamb for example), not very good at all. But the service was great. My Son won't eat anything from here so we asked if they could let us know when the food was due out and we'd go to Burger King and grab him some fries (they don't do normal fries/chips here). The Manager came back to tell us that the chips will come out the same time as the food and they are on him. A lovely little touch and we'll be back to Ludo's again soon.

Paid over £13 for dry salmon and potatoes. I would of been better off with a pizza. Never will order again unless it's pizza.

Myself and my friend went there during the rock & blues weekend, it's a nicely done out place and pretty much a "proper restaurant" rather than the usual you expect find on holiday parks. We both had meatballs for starter, roasted lamb rump for main meal and a chocolate & toffee cheesecake for desert with a side of cheesy garlic bread and a bottle of peroni each - The food which was really tasty and the service was impeccable, at £70 it is very slightly on the expensive side but it is a holiday park after all so I guess I knew I would be paying that bit extra and in all honesty we thought given where we were represented decent value for money. Highly recommended, see you next year!!!!

We went here for our final night at butlins for a tots weekend. We were firstly greeted by our server Tomasz and he was as nice as can be. We order a alcohol free cocktail (strawberry and lemonade, cant remember what they named it) and this was out of this world. We ordered my son pizza from kids menu to come out with starters, this was a good portion size and you could tell they are hand made to order. Very tasty too. For starters i had calamari and my partner had garlic mushrooms. My calamari was cooked to perfection and was tasty. The garlic mushroom starter was full of flavour and i was blown away with this and immediately regretting picking calamari. We both had lasagne for mains and this was a good sized portion and so flavourful. We both had potatoes with tomato and cheese as a side and thie too was tasty and a good portion size. The only slight complaint i have ia how long it took for someone to come over after the mains were finished to see if we wanted desserts. My son had ice cream and it was good quality ice cream. It was a little pricey but worth every penny.

Eat here with my partner and must say considering we were on holiday and all the other staff were so friendly it was unbelievable how dour and miserable our server Karen was. The food in itself was okay but really would it kill the waitress to smile and be polite

We rang ahead the day before arriving to book a table as it was our daughter's birthday. We were asked on the phone if we had any special dietary requirements and my husband indicated he was allergic to mushrooms.

We came to ludos on our first night of our holiday at Butlin’s and boy did it put a downer on things, our waitress Karen was so miserable it was unreal, could have at least tried to smile! Our mains came and first impressions of the pizza and pasta where it looked pretty plain a simple but what I wasn’t expecting was my pasta to be raw! Got my waitresses attention received no apology just that they would make a new one! Time goes on my whole family had finished their meals and I am still waiting for my pasta at this point I don’t see the point of waiting any longer so I catch a team leader and ask for them to cancel my pasta again no apology she just says she will take it off my bill (to right I am not paying for something I haven’t even had) no desserts where offtered to my children nothing so we pay and leave! We as a family eat out a lot and I can honestly say this is the worst dining experience we have ever had! Would not recommend at all!!

ordered soup as a starter, supposed to be tomato & basil, no taste of basil at all and the consistency of the soup was just like chopped tomatoes, one of our party had a pasta dish that looked like it had been sat under a heating light for a while and was very dry on top. Also the service was quite slow

So first of we ordered drinks, not really busy, then we ordered food all seemed fine until about a hour later no food no drink the waitress comes over oh your food will come before your drinks as the bar is very busy (it was dead) our drinks come just as our food come out, one drink was missed out and another didn’t have lemonade In it.

We had booked Ludos in advance during our stay. But on arriving our booking was nowhere to be seen! On double checking we realised we had been booked in... a month too late. Caleb was so accommodating and fantastic, he managed to get us seated anyway despite it being fully booked. Service was great, and Caleb couldn’t do enough to make our visit a brilliant one, he is an asset to the team. Couldn’t fault the food either, excellent starters and our table had a delicious array of pasta. (Very generous portions too!) Thank you Ludos for a great evening.

Beautiful well prepared & presented food, if only we hadn’t waited for ever to be served in the first place. We waited for them to ask what drinks we would like, then same again to take order, food took like what seemed an eternity to arrive then waited again for them to clear table. Same again when it came to dessert & then we had to ask for the bill whilst eating our desserts to make sure we weren’t waiting again.....

19 Oct 24 Called in on the off-chance and asked for a table for 3. They fitted us in as long as we were quick. The food came quickly and was excellent. We all thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff were very accommodating and friendly. I can't thank them enough for helping us a brilliant meal.
