Chinese Cricket Club in City of London, Westminster

Thanks to the Chinese Cricket Club team for the fantastic service and food at the birthday party I held there. I am very pleased with how everything went from the planning to the event day. The birthday party was a huge success and all the guests had a great time. The food was delicious, I wish there was more of it - compliments to the chef! I would definitely recommend the Chinese Cricket Club to others.

Found a cooked fly in my steamed lettuce. All the cooked foods are dripping in oil and bland. Its pretty disgustingly unhealthy The powdered egg is sweet for some reason. Staff are nice though.

One of the best Chinese food I’ve ever had❤️

Nice meal. Steamed Dim Sum was tasty, the fried not as much. Reasonably priced. Wortg a visit if you are in the area.

Was in the City already and decided last minute to go for Chinese food as was Chinese New Year. Found this online and knew nothing about the restaurant previously. WOW ! The food was incredible. High end Chinese, beautiful presentation and absolutely delicious! We had a set menu and everything was amazing. Recommend the beef dish , lobster noodles, all the dim sum. In fact everything! The service was also excellent, friendly with a personal touch. Definitely going back!

Chinese Ney Year, no better way than to enjoy the food and flavours served perfectly by the team at The CCC. we had the special Lunar Menu, and it cannot be faulted for quality or value for money. Enjoy the opportunity you will not regret it!

Tried for the first time as didn’t fancy the crowds in Chinatown and take our time eating / chatting. Overall presentation was fantastic and booked Weekend Dim Sum (£19.99 for 3 items) which was good value considering it’s on the higher end. We added additional a la carte dishes too such as the Smoked peking duck with pancakes l, which was delicious and a good wow if you want to impress. Service was very attentive (they’re inside a 5* Hyatt too which helps). Special mention to Louis (sorry if I spelt name wrong), who described the dishes very well and was attentive but not overbearing. Would come back for sure.

The wagyu fried dumpling was amazing.. a must try

Great food and service in this quiet peaceful restaurant. We really enjoyed the smoked duck and dumplings. Beef with pepper sauce was really tender and tasty

A decent Chinese dim sum restaurant inside the Hyatt Regency Hotel. Classy decor and quite spacious. It is called Chinese Cricket Club, but there is nothing to do with the sports. We went in a Saturday afternoon. Surprisingly all the customers were Chinese and they all spoke Cantonese, which was a good sign for good Chinese food. You could choose any 3 dim sum from their lunch menu for approx £20. The taste of the dim sum was satisfactory in general. Not 100% authentic while they were very presentable, although the portion was really small. The fish dumplings looked cute but tasted bland. Dishes from the a la cart menu were more impressive. I recommended the stir fry beef noodles and the prawn fried rice. Service was very attentive. It would be perfect if there are more dim sum and tea options, as well as larger portion. Otherwise it is difficult to attract repeated business. Personally I urge to introduce pork siu mai into the menu (currently their siu mai is made of chicken).

Peking duck is the best, according to my meat-eating family members. The rest of the dishes were average and not totally the authentic flavor. The dishes from our veggie set menu were really small portion and just OK. We were still hungry until the dessert, which was surprisingly bigger portion. But one of the dessert options we chose was not available because it was 'frozen' and would take too long to serve. I did love the food presentations, and the service was great. However, with 4 adults and 2 toddlers in our group, the bill came to £320 with just water and tea as beverage, no alcoholic drinks. It's definitely over priced.

Dim sum lunch set was good however the Shanghai fried rice was not what stated in the menu in terms of ingredients. It said Chinese Pak Choi and Chinese mushroom were included but there were none of them found in the fried rice which was very disappointing. Prawn was mentioned in the menu but only one of them, which was also disappointing.

Great Spot in Central London for a lovely dinner pre-Christmas. The food was flavour full and interesting, presented beautifully. The service was impeccable and very helpfully accommodated a food allergy with one of the set menus.

Lacking soul, food was very mediocre. Small plates, faux-fine dining. Service was all over the place. Starters arrived after mains.

Fantastic food, atmosphere and the big shot out to manager Luca. The way he took care of us is fabulous. Definitely looking forward to come again. Thank you for the team. ☺️

More Singapore food than Chinese!!!

Excellent food and service. Would like to thank Alan who was our table waiter. He was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the whole menu.

I had a great experience here! We went for the Ruby Set menu (a little pricey) and enjoyed the dim sum. We also ordered their signature smoked peking duck, which was the star of the show - crispy skin and tender meat 🤤

Nice experience. Food quality is excellent. The service is attentive and professional. There are set menu options for two or four people or you can create your own set from individual orders.

The best Chinese cuisine by a country mile. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough. The service was simply exceptional: amiable staff, clean environment with excellent service. The food was served hot and fresh. And the family was thoroughly looked after.

Had our Team dinner at this place. Being a vegetarian, I was sceptical if I would get some good food but was pleasantly surprised with the options. Was provided with many options with excellent service. The desert at the end was also good. Also, heard from colleagues the wine 🍷 was good unlike their experience at other restaurants.

They have delicious chineese foods. We ll come back again

Unexpectedly closed but still took my booking - a problem

My wife and I were having a week-long stay at the Hyatt property that houses this hotel, so we ate her for dinner the first night of our stay. The restaurant is newly reopened following a years-long refurbishment of the entire property. Everything in the hotel and restaurant sparkled. Our meals were very tasty, and the service was spot-on. The restaurant was sparsely populated the evening we ate. We were seated immediately without reservations. I will note that the portion sizes were small compared to a comparable Chinese dinner in the USA. That suited us well, though, since we weren't going to take any leftovers back to our room, and we didn't want to feel overly stuffed after we ate, either. So, the meal was rightly proportioned for our specific needs, but if you have a large appetite, you'd probably find the portion sizes to be too small. Two dinners including one alcoholic drink was 85 pounds, including the optional service charge.

Lovely food, chill and great service. Small thing, but best rice I've ever tasted, really happy with the experience

Food was delicious. However, the portion size was ridiculously small. Three dumplings per order, which is about 4£ each dumpling. An average adult needs at least three orders of anything to feel satiated. Plan to spend 50£ per adult, without drinks. No family-style eating here!

新開張！4人套餐忘記了主菜龍蝦🦞！應變處理尚不足，但服務態度非常好👍！食材方面比較一般，但份量就豐富！

Had Ruby set menu and did not like it much! Service was Ok. More like a try at Chinese fusion with I don’t know what…won’t be back or recommend.

Best Peeking Duck in London. All food was great and service was very attentive. Thanks!

Staying at the Hyatt and arriving late we decided to eat at the CCC. Overall the food is good, but I feel overpriced for the portion size. The good: the steamed pork dumplings were evidently delicious. My son are two servings of them not leaving any for us. The wok fried beef with black pepper sauce was delicious. It isn't similar to what I've had in China from a flavor perspective, however it was delicious in is own right. The not so good: the beef ho fun wasn't fun at all. The fish had undercooked noodles and little flavor. Even after putting sauce in the dish it left us wanting something more. Also, the portion sizes are small, not enough to share 1 dish with several people and we ended up ordering multiple of each dish to get full. In the end the cost wasn't unreasonable, even ordering multiple dishes due to the size and the quality of the dumplings and beef filet was really good. I will try this restaurant again when I'm next at the Hyatt.

They've just reopened after COVID. Prices don't include VAT (strange for London) which makes a very small plate of noodles close to £16 at lunch. Very attentive service given I was the only person dining in the restaurant. Good flavor for beef noodles but some undercooked noodles. Wouldn't be back for lunch unless it's getting expensed. Even so, small portions mean it'll be hard to do family style if you're in a group.

Breakfast is being served in here, post COVID. The restaurant is well spaced out for social distancing and the menu is very good. The food is excellent and you can't fault the service from Alex and the staff. We enjoyed breakfast here in a relaxed atmosphere.

usually visit here with tastecard, and always order peking duck and dimsum

HALAL STATUS: NO LONGER CATERS FOR HALAL! While we easily bought into the concept of Chinese Cricket Club, and, thus, enjoyed both its ambience and its theme, the same wasn't true of the food. Truth be told, of the nine dishes had, we'd come back for two, possibly three. The problem is that when a restaurant makes use of the same base for three separate dishes, and that too the restaurant's signatures, then it's obvious that corners are being cut. Consequently, we had three plates that tasted relatively the same. If this is by design, then it makes sense given that Chinese Cricket Club is part of a hotel that would also be required to cater for the many guests visiting the restaurant. If not, then it just doesn't make much sense to us. In summary then, we were left a little disappointed given our expectations. NOTE: Be advised that the Dim Sum is made from pig. Menu Recommendation Drink - Imperial Mojito Starter - Soft Shell Crab Salad Dessert - Vanilla Ice Cream

Great place for quick, satisfying business lunch. Polite, unobtrusive service and tasty food. Have never left here hungry.

We’d been trying to dine at this restaurant for some time and finally managed it. The menu looked good but the food was even better than the description. Well cooked, lovely flavours and very good portions for sharing. There was also a decent amount of room between tables, which you don’t always find. Having now been once we’ll definitely be going again. Only downside is it’s not open at the weekend which rules out pre theatre dining on a Saturday.

A delightful meal. Excellent service, a great location, and a very interesting menu.

Was very pleased to be able to experience a dragon dance as the restaurant was celebrating Chinese New Year last Friday evening and particularly as it was my birthday. Luck me. Set menu was good although not enough for two men but, then they do have a very healthy apetite! Staff very friendly and were happy to teach us one or two words of mandarin great fun. Thank you for a memorable birthday celebration.

Good food. Reasonable prices. Staff nice. Most reviews are wrong! I was surprised to read the negative reviews of this place. I have eaten hear 3 times and have been very happy with the food, the portion size, the service and even the price given this is LONDON! The negative reviews I read really don’t reflect my opinion.

Lovely service and looking restaurant, food was very lack luster and over herby plus the value is not very good I mean £4 for a water you mad there isn't a drought but like I said service was fast and flawless shame about the food.

It’s a pretty good restaurant - service is good, but where it’s let’s down is the food, it’s not quite authentic Chinese but rather westernised Chinese. We had a large group of 14 and we all agreed it was ok. Some foods were strange, like the salt and pepper squid which was coated with a heavy coating of batter, duck was shredded up... if you’re looking for authentic Chinese food - don’t come here, but if you’re after westernised Chinese good and good service then you’ll be happy.

Not only the food but also the service was exceptional. The manager was also very hospitable. I can gladly try once more next time I'm staying at the hotel.

A delicious serving of Dim Sum and crispy chilli beef

As always the Chinese Cricket Club is a real treat :-) the food & service is excellent.

I would give 0 to this restaurant if I could. I booked this restaurant for Christmas dinner. The restaurant website advertised on the traditional British buffets and, frankly, that’s the only reason I booked the dinner there. When I arrived, no turkey was served in the buffet. All food looked cold and unappetizing. I tried to communicate this issue with the manager. To my surprises, he responded in a very condescending tone “you should have read through our menus carefully...you would know what you paid for...” then he turned his back at me.....The manger didn’t bother to check on my table for the rest of the night..The a few times that the staffs stopped by to collect the plates, not a single time I got a response or even an eye contact when I said thank you..The 12.5% service charge was included in the bill, so even if the service was a nightmare, I still paid over 20 pounds on the service alone..The experience was a nightmare. Do NOT go to this restaurant. By reading the comments, the the rudeness in service is a common occurrence in this restaurant, especially received from the manager.

Our waiter was attentive and even helped us pick the right thing in order to get the best value when using a tastecard

Based in the Plaza, cute place to go on a date. Food could have been better.

Chinese manager started screaming in my face. I nearly cried. I never came back again

This is one of my go to places with work and friends as it's super fast lunchtime service is excellent and it's close to our office. However I'm not sure why the lunchtime menu has dissappeared. It' takes this from a good value lunch stop to an expensive lunchtime venue. Shame as really think lunchtime menu was useful even if we didn't always use it.

We decided to eat after a late arrival to the Crowne Plaza. It is a little expensive (but it is London), however we loved the food and really enjoyed ourselves. The staff are friendly, we were not rushed through our meal and we would choose to go back here.

A nice venue for Christmas Day lunch. The buffet had lots of tasty choices for meat eaters, vegetarians and vegans alike. Good service and a relaxed ambience. Very good value at £45 per head, which is why we chose it. We were not disappointed.

Not good value for price, Cold food, lamb was like rubber, chicken was good, not much choice for vegetarians, maybe because we came at 8.45? OK it was Xmas day, however Extremly dissapointed, !

The staffs and the manager were extremely rude. The food was cold and unappetizing. Very bad experience. Would give 0 star if I could

This place was an amazing find, excellent food and great atmosphere.

Great food! Bit pricey but worth a visit!

Food was really good made a nice change to find a Chinese restaurant in the centre of town that was really good

Nice atmosphere. Service a little slow - but it is a busy time of the year. Choices for a veggie were quite limited and very unexciting. Would I return? No.

Very tasty but tiny portions and needs updated decor

Very tasty Chinese fare, and reliably so. A nice mix of dishes - quite authentic also (having lived in China). Service slightly haphazard but it doesn’t detract. And nice that it’s Chinese people who serve

We were in London, and met up with your daughter for a Lunch. The menu looked good and we were all looking forward to it. Our daughter is vegetarian, so we thought this would be OK, but there wasn’t a veggie set menu. The food was OK but not as good as we have had elsewhere. No of the dishes was inedible (chilli beef, which was rock hard strips of gooey beef that was impossible to eat), with mentioned this to the waitress, who just said she would ‘mention’ it to the chef! Probably won’t go there again.

6 of us enjoyed the 7-course tasting menu.<br />Really really tasty and well-prepared. Good value too.<br />To be recommended.

Delicious food and friendly helpful service made this a great experience. Highly recommend for a great lunch with friends.

Just a bit underwhelmed is all!

Great service from excellent staff and the food was awesome.

Good food, great service, fun atmosphere and a decent wine list

The level of service was up there with Michelin starred restaurants we've been to previously. The staff were attentive without being overbearing. A first for me, was the waitress taking away a still half-full pot of tea, to throw away the water and refill it again so that the tea didn't become too overstewed or bitter. A bit pricey, but not too bad compared to other London restaurants. Highly recommended.

Late on a Sunday evening we were glad to find any half decent restaurant in this part of London. It was empty when we arrived and empty too when we left. In between, the meal was fine….not wowee though…service was understandably attentive…value about right.

Having visited Chinese Cricket Club previously I recommended that my friends and I went here for dinner (especially as it is also on Tastecard). <br />Unfortunately the menu was not as extensive as I remembered especially for my friend who was vegetarian.<br />She was told to order one of the &#039;from the soil&#039; options as her main - she opted for the broccoli -but this was literally just broccoli on a plate and by no means was it a main. <br />The manager was happy to switch this for a tofu dish which wasn&#039;t obviously vegetarian on the menu as it didn&#039;t have VG written next to it so wasn&#039;t an option initially- this was definitely more like a main and we are thankful to the restaurant for switching this.<br />We were also a little disappointed at the size of the salmon which came with no sides/rice/noodles and was £18 just for a salmon fillet in sauce... Seems a bit deer.<br />The venue itself was lovely, the staff really friendly and attentive - so overall we did have a great time there I just think that given how many people are vegetarian and vegan today the menu definitely needs updating.

Interesting wine collection using only wines from sportspeople like Graham Gooch and Jimmy Anderson (both cricketers). The restaurant is in a nice hotel but the views were basically of a busy road intersection. The food was good quality but pricey for what it was. Very attentive service.

Had the Christmas 9 course menu. Great food, great service. can be used for pleasure or business meeting.

Me and my wife had an excellent evening at Chinese Cricket Restaurant. Hang looked after us so well through out the evening and the waitress was very friendly. We will definitely recommend this restaurant to our friends and come back again. Thank you so much.

Chinese restaurant based inside the Crowne Plaza City hotel. Decent ambience and food was good but nothing spectacular for the value. The braised aubergine with garlic in a spiced soya mix was the star dish

Dined off the express menu which was remarkably good and exceptionally good value. The service was brisk and efficient

Great food, excellent service and fair value for money

Good food quality, glad to find a Huaiyang specialty cuisine restaurant in London.

Lovely food, good atmosphere, classy!

Well, you live and learn - being unable to get a table for 6 the same day at Kym's we came here.It's a cold, miserable dining room in a tourist hotel opposite Blackfriars station. The 1st wanting sign should have been the premium rate call number they use to take bookings ( what is this. 1989??)The staff are pleasant and efficient but the food is so so dull.We had the set menu which consisted of:-Salt & pepper squid - ok. 5/10Vegetarian spring roll - oily 4/10Peking duck - for easy of the kitchen the decided to slice it, rather than shred it. It was dry and the plum sauce much too sweet. 3/10 Main courses:Pak Choi with mushrooms quite good 8/10Crispy shredded beef - not sure I found any beef - just batter in sweet sauce 2/10Spicy chicken ? 3/10over all not great for £35 head plus serviceNot to be repeated. EVER

Excellent food and service - would recommend for large business lunch/dinners

One for tourists and office parties. Incredibly bland food in a weird corporate like setting. TBH the alarm bells should have rung when I saw a premium rate number on the website for booking. The set menu was £35 to include Peking duck which they couldn&#039;t even be bothered to shred - it was sliced with a knife. Won;t be returning

We have been here before and I rated it 5 stars. I am afraid it was not good this time.The dim sum was below average but the Shanghai prawns were nice. The Scallop and prawn in XO sauce was very disappointing. First the scallops were frozen food just like from a take away shop,it had no texture and tasteless. On top of it we cannot taste the XO sauce at all.The monkfish dish was tasty but there were very little fish in there. Its expensive dish so its not good value for money. The Emperor duck lack texture, quite bland. The Chang do chicken was quite good. The wine list offered poor choice of wine. Overall our dining experience was average. Basically you can find much better quality food elsewhere easily for the cost .

Fabulous food and service was excellent

Small portions but well prepared and very tasty. I recommend to order more than you think there won’t be leftovers

Great authentic Chinese food and really good service!

We just booked at the last minute for 12 people and they were so accommodating. The service was very good. The food was excellent and being a vegetarian they had fairly good choices. The staff were very friendly and very forthcoming. Had a fantastic evening. Would definitely recommend this friendly restaurant.

Really great food. Every time I come to London I try to eat here.

Nice Chinese food, spicy and tasty.

Comenzamos con el plato de dim sum y los calamares, seguidos de la carne chisporroteante y el pollo de 5 sabores y un posset de limón muy satisfactorio con compota de bayas para terminar. El restaurante estaba muy ocupado para un martes por la noche (está en el hotel Crowne Plaza) y con una Tastecard, todos los platos son 2 por 1, así que definitivamente vale la pena una visita.

Lovely relaxed setting with a different take on Chinese classic dishes in the £50 taster choice we made. Food and service was excellent, but not sure it was different enough to be outstanding from any other good Chinese restaurant. Overall I would find it unlikely that you would be disappointed and I would not hesitate to drop in again.

Great quality menu and such friendly staff

We went here for a birthday celebration in September. There wasn’t much staff working on the day, though it was a sunday and our group were basically the only group other than one other who were eating there. the waiter who was taking care of our table wasn’t very polite, it took a while to find him if we needed anything, For example if we needed drinks or wanted to order we had to wait a very long time to get his attention. I ordered the spring rolls for starters and some chicken in plum sauce for mains. The food itself was nice. However it was extremely over priced. The spring rolls were £8 and when we asked the waiter about the portion size, he said it would be 4 spring rolls, which made sense if they were going to be large ones, but disappointingly it was just two medium sized spring rolls cut in half, which shocked me. I wouldn’t have paid £8 for something that small, i get 4 larger spring rolls from sainsbury’s for £2.25 and they taste exactly the same! We had starters, mains and a cake afterwards and i unfortunately left the place still hungry and dissatisfied.

He estado aquí por sugerencia de un amigo para el almuerzo. Muy buen lugar, con el personal revisando regularmente en usted. Algunos de los platos eran increíbles y otros tal vez simplemente no eran de mi gusto, el pollo tenía un sabor un poco fuerte de cilantro.

High quality food. Small portions. Great menu

A nice restaurant in a hotel, we chose it because it was a different menu to a typical chinese but with some of the old favourites It was for a birthday celebration<br />I requested a round table and was told I had to guarantee a minimum spend - seems odd we were assigned the table in any case as I queried it as it wasn&#039;t in a private area!<br />The service was good and the manager and waitress were good with recommendations etc

Super tasty and perfectly prepared food and excellent service. Me and my friend had the dumpling starters, and two mains from the chefs specialities plus desserts. Everything was beautifully executed and was delicious. The lady that looked after our table was brilliant

It is a nice environment and dish are delicious. The shanghaiese style king prawn taste really nice and will recommend friends to this restaurant.

On Saturday my partner and I walked along the South Bank,after seeing a matinee at the National Theatre. We were looking for somewhere to eat and happened upon this restaurant. We were extremely delighted with the friendly efficient and courteous service. The food for both of us was one of the best meals we had ever had. We shared a plate of yumcha to start:a selection of dumplings: chicken,prawn,spinach and vegetarian spring rolls. Each bite was absolutely delicious.My partner next enjoyed the sizzling lamb and I had the scallops and prawns.Again the food looked and tasted delicious. I can not recommend this restaurant highly enough. We shall certainly be making a return visit.

Stayed at the Crowne Plaza and stumbled a cross this little gem as its in the hotel. Great theme, food, staff and I love the cricket wines on the menu. Happily eat here any time.

Good, used a Taste card so a bit more reasonable.

Four of us had set menu. the portion seemed smaller than used to be. food is still good
