Quick info
About Bunga Raya
A family-run Malaysian kitchen on London Rd in Stockport, Bunga Raya cooks home-style food made fresh to order, with the owner working front of house. Crispy duck turns up across the menu, including on a set menu, and chicken dumplings arrive with a dipping sauce. Starters come either individually, such as spring rolls and prawn fritters, or as sharing plates built for two, and mains include rice. The Malaysian Satay Sauce sits among the kitchen's own preparations. Large bottled beers, Singha and Tiger among them, round out the drinks list. The space is small and plain, a back-room kitchen setup where the decor gives little away and the cooking does the talking. Bunga Raya serves evenings only, opening Wednesday to Sunday and closed Mondays and Tuesdays.

Customer Review Summary
The crispy duck draws the strongest praise, with one diner describing it as melting in the mouth and another giving a special mention to the duck dishes on the set menu. Close behind sit the chicken dumplings, called stunning alongside their dipping sauce, and the prawn fritters, while one reviewer rates the two spring rolls the best they have ever had. Value comes up again and again, with several noting how far starters, mains and large beers stretch, and the friendly, family run service earns repeated mentions, including the owner's genuine smile. Reviewers are candid that the decor and back room kitchen setting give little hint of the cooking. One Malaysian diner was disappointed, finding the food lacked the authentic Malaysian taste they expected, and another had to ask for a knife to manage the spring rolls. Longtime regulars say they have never had a bad meal across many years of visits.

“Lovely family run Malaysian Restaurant offering consistently good Malaysian food at a reasonable price combined with a friendly service. We have been regulars at this restaurant for many years and we have never had a bad meal. The lady owner of the restaurant has a permanent but genuine smile on her face and we look forward to our visits to this restaurant.”

“Really tasty, incredibly well valued. It is a little back room kitchen place but you cannot beat the value for money. Service is great… have and will come back again”

“Great value and lovely food. Mains are all less than £10 including rice. Starters cost up to £6, but most are less. Drinks include a large bottle of Singha or Tiger for £4.50. We had starters and main for 5 and it cost just over £80. Excellent value and very friendly staff.”
