About Ruby Cantonese & Chinese Takeaway
Ruby Cantonese & Chinese Takeaway is a Chinese takeaway on Allen Rd in Bridgwater, where orders are cooked in an open kitchen so customers can watch their food being prepared. Payment is cash only, and a cash point sits next door for anyone who needs to withdraw before ordering. Counter staff take orders at the till, and collections involve a short wait. The menu runs to chips, fried rice and chicken balls, and set meals for one are offered for solo orders. Menu dishes can be made vegetarian on request, with the meat left out.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers are split, and the divide comes down to freshness. Those who rate it highly describe food made on the spot in an open kitchen, served piping hot with short waits on collection, and several call it the best Chinese in Bridgwater, with regulars reporting no problems over years of ordering. Others describe a sharp decline. Complaints centre on reheated food with cold patches, soggy dishes, chips that were not cooked through, and chicken balls that were hit and miss. One diner received a set meal for one with warmed up chips, fried rice, two small pork balls and a few barbecue bones in a small plastic container. A few say portions are small and prices keep rising while quality falls. Counter staff are called unfriendly and moody by some, and polite and efficient by others. One reviewer notes the person at the till offered to make any dish on the menu as a vegetarian option for a partner.

“I have been using Ruby’s for around 5 years, the food is always piping hot, we never wait more than 5 minutes and you can see them making it on the spot. Probably the fastest and freshest chinese in Somerset! Food is always perfect, the member of staff on the till is very understanding and offers to make my partner anything on the menu as a veggie option instead of meat due to her being vegetarian. I will say it’s Cash only, which isn’t an issue as there is a cash point next door. All around very happy, couldn’t ask for more from a takeaway!”

“I honestly don’t understand why there are so many bad reviews. The food was fresh and tasty. It’s not a Michelin-star restaurant, but it’s definitely not poor either. The place is clean, and the person taking orders was straightforward and efficient nothing wrong with that at all. Overall, a solid local Chinese takeaway and I’d happily order again.”
