Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often credit friendly, quick service, including on a large Lunar New Year order. One enjoyed the spring rolls, chicken sweetcorn soup and shredded crispy beef, though the chicken chowmein was meh, with only onions and sprouts. Two note it is cash only, and one finds the food a bit salty. One reviewer reports finding something in their food and questions cleaning standards.

“Happy Garden has such an amazing food. We love ordering at least once a month and it’s always incredible and it’s even more special to know it’s a family run business. It became our reliable takeaway after work when we’re craving this cuisine. Totally recommended.”

“Just be very careful eating at this place , they seem nice but I am not sure about standard of cooking and regular cleaning as we found this in our food and it was not pleasant to be honest, I hate putting reviews but think this is needed as for health and safety reasons ,”

“Hosted a Lunar New Year celebration with a huge order from Happy Garden, amazing selection, great prices and full to the brim. Very friendly and helpful service too especially placing such a big order!”

“Just another run of the mill Chinese takeaway, not sure why the rave reviews! Surely communication was great, the girl at the counter was friendly and speaks well, which is usually not the case. Food is just ok, not bad other than a bit salty, however the price you pay is premium price compared to other similar takeaways! Food quality surely doesn’t command the 15-20% extra price than competition! service was quick and friendly. However the biggest issue here that’s it’s cash only! Why?? Why is the card machine broken or non existent, I don’t know!”

“Reasonable local Chinese take-away - please note they're cash only! There's no option for sit down, but the kitchen is pretty efficient and you don't have to wait long for a walk-in order. So far we've enjoyed the spring rolls, chicken sweetcorn soup and the shredded crispy beef (sauce is a bit hot, but mostly sweet). Chicken Chowmein was a bit meh, an okay side-dish, but just onions and sprouts for veg.”
