“Great Buffet”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2012

Fred&Barney's is well established in Drumheller, especially with the locals. It offers a Chinese/Western buffet second to none. Food quality is great as well as the service. Another must try while in Drumheller. More

I happened to end up in Drumheller for a 2 day business trip, and decided to try out Fred and Barney`s restaurant. It was easy to find off the hwy, and at 8 pm, seemed like the only thing really available other than fast food. The waitress was fast and efficient, and I decided on the buffet (quick and easy)....

It was our familys first time in Drumheller on recommendation from some relatives on the town being a great tourist attraction. The first restaurant that caught our eyes was 'Fred and Barneys'.

“Not even the potatoes were real.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 September 2009

Had a trip to Drumheller recently, and of course our eye was caught by the name "Fred and Barney's" in a dinosaur oriented town. How surprised were we to find that it was a Chinese buffet? In a rush, and noting the Western menu in addition, we decided to stay. My boyfriend had the buffet which looked edible, but nothing... More
