Bridges cafe in New Forest

Food was piping hot, delivery was fast and order needs where met. Would recommend to anyone.

excellent service as usual and lovely food

Great food , piping hot and super fast delivery

Food was beautifully cooked , plenty too . Delivered piping hot & 15 minutes early . Thankyou

Really impressed with the service and food. Will be ordering again.

Amazing food as always, and early as always!

worst Chinese I've ever had so bland and cold never again absolute rubbish

The sweet & sour chicken is the best I have bought in a long time

Lovely little coffee shop serving great food and drinks at reasonable prices. Located near the short stay car park which was convenient.

As always amazing fresh food and hot on arrival. The delivery man was really nice too I just regret that I forgot to pass him the tip. If you haven’t tried them already so try the bbq spare ribs. Love the fact that the order is always correct and fresh.

Food not the best ,beef and mushrooms stale ,chips cold and some green

item missing from the order which obviously scored against them

as always, lovely food and delivered earlier than expected 👌

Just had a lovely breakfast at the establishment we phoned ahead to confirm it was dog friendly and it was they greeted us all super well and gave amazing service they adapted and let us change our orders to suit our needs and allergy’s the food was super hot and fresh haven’t got a bad word to say!!

Love this cafe, friendly staff, great coffee and lovely cakes Food menu looks brilliant as well I hope people keep supporting local businesses like this

Amazing food, very filling, scrumptious taste

Curry sauce was a jelly consistency, and Luke warm. Crispy shredded beef was not crispy in any way and was also full of a chilli sauce that was the same consistency as the curry sauce

cold chicken balls, extremely late. absolutely appalling

This is not our nearest take away but our fav!!! never had a bad meal. delivery is quick...food is gorgeous...not greasy..super tasty every single time. 😋

Lovely food as always but what particularly amazed me today was how quick it came! Think it was within 20 minutes of ordering 😋

brilliant and piping hot as always

Food was delivered as if it was prepared for another customer and cold you’d expect it to be atleast warm Didn’t really want to heat up tried to call the restaurant no answer terrible

It’s really hard to find good authentic Chinese food in Wales, the food tasted really greasy, cheap and was not really edible in my opinion, the fried rice was over cooked and greasy. The spring rolls tasted like they had been left out for a few days. I will not be ordering from here again. Crispy beef was okey but not spicy at all, the best part of the meal was the rice crackers. The chicken curry was an off grey/brown colour and looked a bit questionable.

Always great food from here and the best and quickest delivery service about, drivers are always polite 5 star fairplay

Always earlier than promised and great food every time, never any variation in the quality

Perfect ever time, never had a bad one

Excellent food, hot and plenty of it plus it came earlier than expected.

Perfect food once more the best Chinese around here!!!

Absolutely disgusting service, over an hour and 20 mins to let me know that it was going to be another 40 mins. Called to find out after specified time, lied to and told it had been sent out with another 10 orders and then changed their minds and said it was just cooking and would be with me soon. Then received a message to say my ordered had been cancelled. Called back to be told that the "cook" had cancelled it, when i asked why i was told you dont want to speak to him he may shout at you or hang up. Someone else came on the phone and then told me to reorder before hanging up. Being buying from here for years, I'm guessing new owners don't want local trade as the girl that originally answered said she had other complaints also. Would suggest thay Just Eat deal with reputable businesses only and not with people that threaten customer - just hope people vote with their feet and go elsewhere

It took nearly an hour from the time I was told it was on its way and the food was cold. Not good at all. Contact me and say it may be later but don't send me cold food.

The food was really nice, fresh, hot and tasty. Honesty one of the nicest takeaways of this cuisine I’ve had! I will definitely be ordering from here again and have already told my friends about this place. Also to add the delivery service was prompt and the lady that delivered was really pleasant too.

Delivered promptly driver was polite, the food was generous portions and it tasted devine want to order from you again but for some reason the app doesn't have you now, thank you golden gate

Good honest and tasty food: BLT and bacon and Brie baguettes were really tasty. Chips crunchy and piping hot. Cheerful staff. Well done!

the food wasn’t very good, stale and didn’t taste good, the salt and pepper chicken was hard and the curry was too strong

Thats a HIDDEN GEM, such a nice alternative for The George pub and other Pubs around! We went with our 2 years old daughter and it was such a nice experience. Very good food, family and dogs friendly waitress was very professional and friendly, everything was clean. I will come to try all the cakes i saw near the till!

Lovely food fair play and still piping hot considering the distance delivery driver had to travel, 5 star service in all ways, best about

Totally recommend hot when delivered and very tasty cant wait to order again thank you x

Amazing food and came 10 minutes earlier than expected! Will definitely be ordering again, amazing value for money :)

Delivery was approximately 10 minutes late, but we were informed beforehand, received an apology and given regular updates. This didn’t effect our meal. The food arrived piping hot and was absolutely delicious. We will definitely order again.

The egg fried was disappointing, Also there was no sesame prawn toast on the menu. The meat dishes were good with nice big chunks of meat. Would probably order again.

The food was great, hot and tasty.

Really impressed with food and service. Good can an hour earlier than expected we were really pleased. Will definitely order again. Thank you

Always early, hot and delicious!

I was impressed by just how bland and tasteless the food was - quite an achievement!

Food was amazing Served piping hot Chinese food at its finest

We found this cafe through TripAdvisor. However, we were disappointed overall. The panini was OK, and the cooked breakfast was also OK though we found the mushrooms completely inedible (cut so thin they were totally dried out). I had a cheese scone which had no flavour at all and some halloumi fries which were also pretty tasteless. My son said his cocktail was delicious.

Missing items, stale warmed up dry chips that weren't edible and chicken balls were extremely over cooked. Rung up and they took 40 minutes to replace the chips and missing item. Rest of the food was freezing cold in that time. Full wait time was 2 hours

This is the first time I've had to leave a bad review for the Golden Bridge Placed an order at 18:47 with an ETA of 19:45 - 20:15. Not a problem, every previous order has been here within 30 - 40 minutes. It arrived just before 20:15 (still within the ETA but nearly 90 minutes after I ordered) and the food was luke warm (it's normally nice and hot) This is the only chinese I order from, so really disappointed this time.

Brilliant as always and really fast delivery!!!

We always go to this cafe in Fordingbridge. Friendly and good cake. Dog allowed inside and it had a garden. Family friendly and welcoming

Came today for afternoon tea at bridges,for father's day, the afternoon tea was perfection and the cook is absolutely fantastic, and the staff and owners are welcoming and friendly and a lovely happy atmosphere, can not recommend enough to anyone to go visit.thank you staff and owners,we will be returning. 😊

Excellent service can't fault the food or the delivery definitely have no problem using them in the near future.

The team were really good and patient with our table of 9, and we were able to book ahead, which is really helpful when you're a bigger group. Food was great, we all had lovely breakfasts and there is nice kids menu with lots of choice. Excellent value for money.

Food was amazing and arrived piping hot. We will definitely be ordering again.

We went for lunch here after visiting a local garden centre and enjoyed the food and coffee. The staff are helpful and polite and the service was efficient. As another review said, the staff do congregate around the till and as the cafe was very quiet with few customers it felt like our conversation could be overheard. All it needed was a bit of background music to add into the mix. I'm sure if it was a busier time we wouldn't have noticed. In all a nice venue, clean and comfortable.

The food was very bland today, nothing Chinese about it, rice all clumpy and stuck together, no taste to the chow main, black bean sauce was more of a gravy taste…. Just an expensive disappointment.

I wish every order were delivered this quickly lol Great food as per

Used to be great, but has gone downhill since it changed hands in December. Love the fresh blue walls and the food is still good, but the staff spend all their time chatting in loud voices around the till. They are loud, annoying and it spoils the nice, relaxed atmosphere the place used to have. A bit less time spent having a good chat, a bit more smartening themselves up a little and paying a bit more attention to details such as cleaning tables would be good. Just to add, this is our third time we’ve been here since it changed hands and it’s been the same each time. Not going back.

Fantastic service, good food and good prices. We will be coming back.

Great but a little earlier than ordered, had just got home from work, if I had run late I would have missed delivery

Every review I leave for Golden Bridge sounds exactly the same.🙂 I can't rate them high enough, the food is the best I have had from any chinese takeaway and I will not be going anywhere else while this is my local takeaway. Every member of staff is friendly and the food has always been earlier than the ETA which is never a problem. If you've never had food from here before, please, please give them a try. You won't be disappointed.

Food was OK, not very hot though and over 30mins late

We have often eaten here and it rarely disappoints. However the menu was limited yesterday and my elderly father covered his meal in sugar rather than salt. There were no salt and pepper condiments on the table and just a small ramekin with sugar sachets which easily could be mistaken, especially the thin black sachet. He didn't want to make a fuss so ate it !!! I did bring it to the waitresses attention and apparently its 'happened before ' !!! Lets hope my review ensures it doesn't happen again !!!

Food was very bland and tasteless

Can't praise Golden Bridge enough, food is always stunning and about to order again

Great delivery. Food arrived and earlier than expected. No faults with the food , it was lovely. 5 stars

Very bland food, hardly any taste. Very disappointed

The only thing that let the meal down was the chips. Frozen, tasteless. Real spuds are the way to go. Other than that, meal was amazing

Amazing never disappoint value for money amazing taste of food

Food was freezing cold! In edible in fact! Won't be ordering again!

I have been into Bridges many times over the last few years and have always been impressed with the friendly staff and the quality of the food. On Saturday I was walking past and really fancied a takeaway coffee. So, I popped in, and was served immediately by a helpful man who made me a delicious latte. This is the perfect coffee shop and I look forward to my next visit when I will try one of their delicious breakfasts!

Lovely food, just a long wait for delivery but worth the wait. Delivery drive very friendly

Food was over 90mins from time of order. Chips were dry, they had been put in the bag at time of ordering because they had been sweating so much in the bag that the paper bag disintegrated. The crispy chips were instead chewy and others were very dry and overcooked in the middle. Mains were good though

Excellent delivery time. Food was okay. Chips weren’t the best, rice and noodles a bit bland. Curry and crispy beef was nice.

pork in the curry was sour rest was nice but that put me off

Fantastic service on NYE, thank you!

Food was cold wasn’t as nice as ones I have had previously Considering how much it cost wasn’t nice most got thrown

Chips were warmed up and tasted horrible, the pancake rolls were greasy but the rice and chicken curry was perfect.

Bridges Coffee and Dining is housed in an old building that has been adapted for use as a restaurant. Acces from the street is up a flight of two steps with no provision for an access ramp. My wife can walk short distances so we were able get into the restuarant and take her wheelchair in with us (it folds up). We were shown to a table in the garden room and we were able to park the wheelchair out of the way. We had fish and chips and a shepards pie for lunch as well as a pot of tea for two. The food was hot and well cooked (think good home cooking, nothing fancy) and the tea pot seemed bottomless. Service was courteous and polite. All in all, a pleasent meal and we would return. The only thing stopping me giving it a 5 star rating is the lack of disabled access and disabled provision in the toilet. There is room in both toilets for some handrails to help less mobile customers.

Food was not nice and was warm at best. Crispy beef in honey looked like was overcooked and it tasted it as was more crunchy then crispy. The chips were warm Curry sauce was vile tasted better from shop bought curry sauce. The chicken balls were okay Food was ordered two hrs in advance yet was still late. Very disappointing as use to be a good Chinese takeaway

Food arrived very late and was cold.. was given an apology however I didn't pay for cold food...

Had a ride out on the motorbikes today and stopped at this nice little place.. great breakfast and the coffee was fab.. Owner was very friendly definitely a place to return to.

Went in here for coffees and a snack, everything good and staff were very cheery and friendly. Would go back when visiting there again.

Excellent as always, thank you.

Normally never have any issues Sadly this evenings was a different story. Ordered a set meal with extra rice, chow Mein didn't arrive. After 2 phone calls food turned up 45mins late. Shame as service is Normally spot on. Let themselves down Promised that on next order we would have a free chow mean! Watch this space

Amazing quality! Great prices and always on time.

I say surprisingly - as you wouldn't necessarily know from the street. Inside - especially the back room is like an old fashioned tea shop with knick knacks around you - but it works. Service was excellent - full marks to the young lad who was serving us. The food also was excellent. Nothing to fault. keep up the great work.

90 minutes late. Really bland! Forgot half the order! Wouldn’t go any near this place again if it was the last Chinese going. Awful.

Fast delivery.Food was piping hot and delicious.

Never had a bad meal from here.!! Best one around now.

It wax delicious 1st order will order again really enjoyed it very tasty

We visited as a group of 10, across 3 generations, before a funeral. I had emailed Allison beforehand to check they could accommodate us and had a lovely reply back. Also offered a big table in their back room. As soon as we arrived, we received a very warm welcome. We ordered lots of different things between us (breakfasts, jacket potatoes, cottage pie & 3 different kids meals). The good sized portions were all delicious and well cooked - clean plates all round! Tasty food, excellent service (which was also quick but not rushed) and very reasonable prices. Thank you again 🙂

The food was really tasty and decent sized portions. Slightly later than expected, but was worth the wait.

Excellent service rang before to check if we wanted the food early which is always a yes and the quantity and quality was fantastic.

Incredible food, best chinese ive had, delivered hot and bang on requested time. Thanks :)

Order placed at 7:40 pm on a Friday, ETA was over an hour, food arrived within 25 minutes. Can't praise the Golden Bridge enough. Food is always stunning and piping hot Won't get food from any other chinese

The rice had a terrible smell, and tasted even worse went in the bin, the chowmain was soggy and tasteless, prawn crackers stale, the chicken balls were ok

Food was on time and very tasty

Wonderful little eatery, food absolutely delicious very high quality and very reasonably priced the staff here are very attentive and made the experience very enjoyable, would highly recommend

Ordered our food for 10.30pm as we were on our way home during a 6 hour drive. times up until 11.30pm were advertised on Just Eat.. we arrived home at 9.30pm and had a phonecall to say the shop shuts at 10 so it was being cooked and would be delivered early. Wasn’t too happy as it shouldn’t be advertised for later deliveries if that couldn’t be done. we’d spent nearly £50 on this meal so couldn’t just cancel it. Got home and didn’t even have time to get our shoes off before the door knocked. Then when we dished out they only sent one curry sauce instead of 3. So one sauce had to be split between 3 people. Everything was then dry and couldn’t enjoy it feeling rushed aswell. Really not happy and won’t use again. Attention to detail is a must when people are paying this amount of money for one delivery.
