Not necessarily. You may opt to sign in as a guest to make PaperBox reservations. However, we would highly encourage you to sign up for an account to earn loyalty points upon every booking/ review, which can be used to claim various rewards.
Our listed buffets provide a real-time food availability bar to help you gauge how much food is available when you arrive. However, this is not always accurate, as we are working with an unpredictable, changing amount of surplus food.
Therefore, it is best to arrive early, as food is served on a first-come, first-served basis. Do be assured that no payments will be charged if you decide to cancel your reservation.
