Quick info
About Happy Garden Oldham
Happy Garden Oldham is a Chinese takeaway at 388 Lees Rd in Oldham that also cooks chippy fare. The menu runs fish and chips and chicken tikka pizza alongside Chinese dishes such as crispy shredded beef, so one order can cover both styles. Chips and rice are both offered as sides with the Chinese dishes, so the same plate can take either. On the chippy side, a large portion of fish, chips and peas is one of the meals ordered to take away. The shop opens in the evenings only and closes on Tuesdays.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers split sharply on Happy Garden, and the most repeated complaint is a decline from how the place used to be. Several say the food is no longer authentic Chinese, and one suspects the chips are frozen. The crispy shredded beef draws the sharpest criticism, described by one diner as more like fried ash, though the same reviewer found the rice, chips and ribs fine. Another says the order was wrong and the place smelled of dirty oil, and one reports a New Year's Eve meal too bad to eat. Service is the other recurring complaint: a rude server, a slow fish order that sat uncooked in a quiet shop, and one customer turned away for chips half an hour before closing because none were left. On the positive side, others praise fresh, flavourful food, friendly staff and a kind owner. One collected chicken tikka pizzas with chunky chips, ready when promised, and another left full after a large fish and chips with peas and beef in oyster sauce, noting new owners since the new year.

“IT WAS SO GOOD MASHALLAH AND THE OWNER IS SO SWEET”

“Popped in to collect 2 large chicken Tikka pizzas and chips. Staff were friendly and had it ready in 15 mins like they said. Pizza was fresh out the oven, proper crispy base and loaded with toppings. Chips were chunky and piping hot all the way home. Shop was clean and service was quick. Really good value too. Will be my go-to for Friday nights now. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“The food is no longer authentic Chinese, flavour is not what you'd usually expect. I think even the chips are frozen. Happy Garden is not how it used to be. More like Sad Garden. Disappointing”
