Quick info
About Lin Nam
On Hanham Rd in Bristol, Lin Nam is a Chinese takeaway serving the surrounding streets in the evenings. The kitchen prepares the standard range of Chinese takeaway dishes for collection, with orders placed on a walk-in basis rather than by reservation. It opens every day of the week except Tuesdays, when the kitchen stays closed, giving the schedule a steady evenings-only rhythm across the rest of the week. There is no seated dining room, so the focus stays on food prepared to order for customers heading home or picking up on their way past. The straightforward walk-in setup means no advance arrangement is needed before stopping by for an evening meal.

“Ordered at 7.30pm for an 8pm delivery. At 8.12 we called chasing it to be told it's on the way. We live exactly 12mins away and at 8.30 it still hasn't arrived We chased again to be told it's on its way again! I told them that's what we were told 20mins ago. I do not appreciate being blaintly lied too. At 8.39 it arrived! We have used Lin Nam for the past 10 years plus and this is now the 2nd time recently they have let us down. The food is fine but service now leaves alot to be desired. Make sure you give at least an hour for delivery.”

“10/10. The best Chinese takeaway in all of Bristol. I have been using Lin Nam for over 3 years now, and I have never had a bad dish or experience.”

“Without a doubt one of the most tasteless Chinese meals I have ever had. A prawn dish, a Sichuan beef dish and a chicken cashew dish tasted exactly the same, zero seasoning, zero flavour and went in the bin after trying to push down a few mouthfuls. The highlight was a portion of dry chips. Absolutely rank!”

“Ordered crispy duck dish with other items which was delivered but found that no side order and sauce was sent. We made do on the night as we were very tired and phoned to complain the following evening. However we were told that as we had not called on the night to complain they did not believe us and would not compensate us or offer any replacement food. We had used this place for many years but will now not go there again due to their could not care less attitude and would recommend that others do likewise.”

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers single out the chicken chow mein, with salt and pepper chips, egg fried rice and curry sauce also called great. Another describes quick, nice food. Complaints are sharper: one found a prawn dish, Sichuan beef and chicken cashew all tasting the same and unseasoned, another found the chicken balls mostly doughy, and a long-time customer was twice told a late delivery was on its way.
