The Line

Shangri-La's international buffet with nine live stations and family-friendly appeal.

The Line is Shangri-La Singapore’s international buffet restaurant, located at the Tower Wing lower lobby. The restaurant’s official page describes nine live stations and a buffet covering Middle Eastern, Indian, Western, Peranakan and Asian selections, plus chilled seafood and roasts. It serves buffet lunch and dinner daily, while breakfast buffet access is mainly for in-house guests. The restaurant has long been associated with family gatherings and birthdays, helped by Shangri-La’s resort-like grounds off Orchard Road and a polished but relaxed dining environment.

THEBESTSG STAFF REVIEW

The Line is a classic big-hotel buffet: broad, energetic and especially suitable for families who want a little of everything. The live stations are the draw, and the mix of Indian, Middle Eastern, Asian, Peranakan and Western food gives groups room to roam. Its location is slightly tucked away from the main Orchard shopping stretch, which can be a plus for ambience but less convenient than mall-connected hotels. It remains a dependable choice when you want a recognisable luxury-hotel buffet without overthinking the menu.

WHY THEY MADE THEBEST SG

Its nine live stations, strong hotel setting and family-friendly reputation keep it among Singapore’s most recognisable international buffets.
