Quick info
About Happiness Inn
Happiness Inn is a takeout restaurant on High St in Sittingbourne, set up for walk-in orders rather than table service. Orders are placed at the counter and taken away, with no reservations involved. Delivery is also offered to the surrounding area, though the wait can stretch well past the quoted time, with some orders taking over two hours to arrive. Customers planning on delivery may want to factor in that extended window rather than the estimate given at order time.

Customer Review Summary
Delivery time is the dominant complaint across these reviews, with several describing waits stretching two and a half hours or more, one reviewer citing a scheduled order left nearly four hours late, and another recounting repeated stalling calls before food arrived at 9:15pm for a child's birthday order placed at 7pm. Order accuracy is a second recurring issue, with one reviewer reporting a missing meal and repeated wrong chow mein despite stated dietary requirements, and another describing a greasy pancake roll and flavourless prawn toast. One reviewer separately reports finding hair in their food on two occasions and questions the hygiene standards, an account specific to that diner. Against this, a smaller group of reviewers describe consistently hot, tasty orders arriving early when pre-ordered directly, with one specifically praising the delivery driver's manner, and another reporting five years without a bad experience.

“Second time in the last two months my order has been incorrect. Bear in mind I have only ordered those two times. The first was a whole meal for one was missing, I then had to go and collect. The second order I only ordered two things and they still gave me the wrong item! Then asked me to come and collect again! Had multiple previous orders with incorrect chow mein being sent even after stating dietary requirements. Was my go to. Gone down hill”

“DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE!! Hair in our food, Twice!, awful hygiene standards. a food standards agency needs to get involved. Food was clearly microwaved and tasteless, (that's before we found hairs in it) felt like i was doing a bush tucker trial on I'm a celebrity”

“Never had anything bad from here in the 5 years I've been here. I would like to add. If you order from a platform like just eat them you deserve what you get.”
