Dragon Boat in Huntingdonshire

My ppl were cross with me when I told um I had ordered from here. We have always gone somewhere else, and it's been good, and none of um wanted to take the risk with somewhere new. It was a winner, though. The Welcome restaurant / takeaway probably tips it with quality, but that's Chinese fine dining and expensive. This place, though, impressed us. It's now our new regular chinese goto, definitely recommended.

Ordered from here a few times in recent months, both delivery and collection. Food has always been great. Chow mein noodles are a bit thinner than ones I've had in the past, but flavour is still good. Szechuan chicken is incredible. The BBQ pork is probably the best I've ever had. Beef and broccoli was nice but I probably wouldn't order it again. I really enjoyed the fried rice but my wife thought it was a little bit dry for her liking. Crispy chilli beef is a favourite of mine, and they do it justice here, always crispy and flavourful without being dry. Look forward to ordering again soon 🙂

It's a takeaway, so no dining in. It was our go to place for Chinese food, but over the past month the quality of the food has plummeted. We always had the starter box for two ( ribs, seaweed, prawn toast, spring rolls etc) but last time, approx two weeks ago, everything in it was burnt - the spring rolls were black on one side, so we ended up throwing most of it away. The rest of the food was average at best. Ok, we thought, everyone has a bad day so we tried again tonight. Avoided the starter box, but from there it went downhill and almost everything went in the bin. The sweet and sour chicken was almost black in colour and so bitter you couldn't eat it. The mandarin chicken was watery, with almost no taste (chicken boiled in water then some sauce thrown on top?)The special fried rice and pancake rolls were the only saving grace. I don't know if they've changed their chef - if they have this one will cost them a lot of business. We won't be going back.

This takeaway has never let us down, food absolutely amazing each time

Delivery, absolutely awfull , the king prawn chowmain was very watery. No flavour at all , the chicken balls were filled with either frozen chicken or long life chicken, very rubbery and tasteless , rice was fine , over all a very disappointing take away . We used to use these regularly but not any more .

Very good staff excellent food always hot value for money

I like this place and order alot. Food is always good, always delivered fast and always hot. And cheaper and better than most places nearby. Which tends to be overpriced and lacklustre. Order the chicken balls. They're huge and so is the meat inside. You couldn't buy that amount of chicken breast from a supermarket for that price. Highly recommend!

Really good takeaway. Our favourite one in St Ives

Great Food, especially love the prawn ball

Had a dragon boat last night 17/12/23 . Food was very dry and wasn't very nice in general .I got ill in the night. Had bad stomach pains, headache and feeling sick. Been like it all day. Not very nice food. Won't be back

100% RAW Chicken in my Chicken Balls. DO NOT eat from here. See photo. Place needs to be shut down.

Best Chinese takeaway in St ives Cambridgeshire

Visiting the area and was looking for a Chinese. Chose this place on the reviews, and it didn't disappoint. Thai green curry was amazing, and the crispy beef crispy. Squid and sweet and sour chicken also went down a treat. Really reasonably proced too. Just glad we don't live near :D

Just got our first takeaway in our new house and it did not disappoint. We ordered the finger meal box to start, and the beef with black bean sauce, house special chow mein, salt & pepper deep fried prawns. Delivery was fast, food was hot and delicious, and prices were fair. Will absolutely be ordering again.

Very nice and the best Chinese takeaway in St ives area in my opinion. The BBQ pork Chinese style was exemplary and the duck is beautiful. Our go to Chinese takeaway

Fantastic food, consistent quality and very friendly. I've used Dragon boat for over 18 years and never had reason to complain.

I really wanted to try this takeaway but after getting “line busy” for half an hour I gave up and went to the Flaming Wok! Not sure that I’ll try again as first impressions count.

When stopping in the area with relatives we have to have a takeaway from Dragon boat Always well cooked & tasty but delivery can be a long time as it’s very popular

One of the best Chinese takeaways ever. Really.

Great meal love it never disappoints

I really appreciated the continued COVID safe service. Great food and service. Will definitely return.

Well what can I say haven't had a Chinese this great for years spot on prawn toast to die for.

Excellent meal,lovely flavour,great value.

Superb food and service, never had a bad meal...by far the best takeaway in St Ives!!

Always a great meal from the Dragon Boat. Fast, friendly service. The phone can be busy sometimes. Keep trying, you won't regret it.

Love the Dragon Boat. Great friendly service, always busy which tells you it’s good. Never had a bad meal from them. Missed an item once or twice but when phoned they have always rectified it. Wouldn’t go anywhere else as food is delicious. Thank you to all the team.

Best Chinese in St Ives, food is always piping hot and fresh. This is our go to now. Highly recommend.

Been here before food is so nice and hot great value for money would defo recommend if your visiting stives

Really nice food, will definitely be going back!

Food is delivered fast and always piping hot. Capital ribs are to die for, sweet and savoury. Sweet and Sour chicken balls are the best I've ever had. This is my only go to place for quality Chinese food. 100% love this place. Can't fault the ordering process or the friendliness of the folks who deliver the food.

fabulous. we had the spicy optons which we love and they were lovely and fresh and spicy. delivered on time snd very polite. definately would use them again.

Good food, friendly delivery drivers and never any issues

Lovely food and very efficient. It's the best Chinese around

reliable Chinese, decent quality

Love this place great food allways hot very busy which is a good sign couldn't recommend enough try it if your visiting

Great value takeaway. Nothing fancy, but super crispy duck, and the house special Foo Yung is great.

Received the wrong dish what I didn't ask for. So called up to say and pretty much got told I was wrong and that was what I ordered. Been ordering from there for year's so thought I'll get it sorted better then that. But food still very nice. Was just a shame made me feel like I was wrong when I wasn't.

Set menu D We get only Twice a year for the last 12 years but it’s lush Highly recommend Loads of food. Feeds 4 easily even tho for 2 If your wondering to order go for it you will like it

Ordered a nice meal from here it’s a great Chinese if your in the area try it food hot and tasty good value for money

Absolutely love this place Took a few frogs before I found my prince but so totally worth it. The food and service are amazing Recommend 100% Best Chinese in the area without a doubt!!

We moved into St Ives in Feb '19. As you'd expect, moving day was chaos. What shall we do for tea? Chinese takeaway. Good enough to get another one the next day. And several times since.

Friendly staff, quick service, good food and very reasonably priced. Will defo be a round two.

Always hot on arrival and tasty food. Great chinese/cantonese/thai style takeaway dishes. Great portions and good prices.

I’ve tried a few of the Chinese takeaways in St Ives, and this has to be the best by far! Food is always piping hot, and the flavours are brilliant. I am huge fan of Chinese food, and this really does hit the spot. This place can get very busy, so put your order in early for delivery or be prepared to collect! Thank you 😃

Maybe go here if your skint as it is cheap and they give you alot ( that's why I've gave it two stars) but the food is not very nice at all. One of the worst I've had in a while. Go to The Welcome and pay a bit more. It is much nicer.

This place is normally good but phoned order in asked for shredded beef egg fried rice and sweet and sour prawn balls collected order but when got home they gave me sweet and sour pork balls I don’t eat pork so was a waste of money this is twice now this has happened

A great value take away. Excellent choice on the menu and always great food - I've been having take-aways here for years and have always been very pleased. Staff are friendly and always greet with a smile. Easy to place an order over the phone. Parking outside the take-away can be difficult but there is a short walk away.

Has fast service and a waiting area inside, can call for delivery to home. Good quality food and tastes nice, arrives soon after order for delivery still hot

Looks basic however great takeaway

Great food and service.always first choice for food

I had take away a couple of time from the Dragon Boat. The service was fast and the food very good at a very good price. I definitely recommend them.

Awesome food. So tasty and good portions.

Great value Chinese takeaway and delivery. The set menus are excellent value for money and good quality. The service is always friendly and helpful. This is a very busy place, which is a good sign, so I recommend ordering ahead, otherwise there can be a wait especially at the weekend. I can't fault anything which I've tried on their menu. Highly recommended.

Was told time and again to try The Dragon Boat so we did... first time a few weeks ago... Amazing. Second time... Amazing again. Very polite staff, reasonable waiting time, great value and the tastes are to die for... especially SP21: Beef with straw mushrooms and red peppers... Yummmmmmm!

friendly staff, fresh ingredients, well presented, tasty clean large portion, fast devliery, totally love it

Friendly service , quick ,tasty always get my order right , can’t ask for more from your local Chinese take away.

Great chinese food always fresh and authentic tasting

You will be guaranteed great tasty food and one of the cheapest priced around. Best Take-Away Chinese in St Ives.

Generally good food with reasonable prices _ £28 - £32 for a set menu for 2 people which has plenty of goodies to feed up to 3 hungry adults. Soups are a hit and miss though, try something else.

I have reviewed this restaurant before but it most definitely deserves another 5* rating. Our take away was superb again last night. Best squid you will ever eat! Would recommend the mixed starter box also which is a bargain at £8.50 (much bigger than we thought!) and utterly delicious!

Great food, really friendly staff, I've had takeaways from here loads of times.

Best Chinese takeaway in St Ives.... Fact!

Friendly staff, nice food. I've had the curries, black bean dishes and sweet and sour which are all good.

We love the quality of the Welcome Chinese but they don't deliver so thought we would try Dragon Boat. Have to say, excellent all round. Food is delicious, service quick and friendly, and delivered to your door. Love it!

£2.50 delivery charge ....ha ha think not !!!

Amazing food by far the best Chinese around.

Very very good wish this was near my home. Full of flavour and really good quality must come back

The only place we ordering from xx

Excellent food every time. Only takeaway I use.

Had a lovely take away. Arrived in quick time (30mins instead of the always predicted 45!) the salt and pepper squid is a top choice. Some times when you order chicken/pork balls they are very doughey but not from here they were crispy and delicious! As usual a fantastic service!

High quality, good value Chinese food is provided here, either to be collected or delivered. Never experienced less than excellent food.

I've never had a bad Chinese from hear always a really quick delivery, good food and good portions too...AAA RECOMMENDED

I have only recently discovered this takeaway. And they deliver! Lovely food. Quick service. I pay £2.50 for delivery but I find it is well worth it so we don't have to travel From Huntingdon to St.Ives to get our food. We can relax and wait for it to come to me . Top marks to the chefs and the lady who takes the orders.

By far my favourite Chinese takeaway. Great prices, good portions and delivery is pretty quick too!

Excellent from start to finish. Prompt answer of call. Order taken by friendly lady . Having not ordered from here before wasnt sure payment method, cash on delivery which was only £1 varies on area & order size. Food arrived within 5 mins of requested time pipping hot and delicious. Portion sizes are big unlike the prices which are very reasonable. . will be ordering again very soon .

I've been getting take aways for at least 2 years now from the Dragon Boat and thought it was about time I gave it the praise it deserves.

Great food, generous portions,freshly cooked at great prices,good delivery times. Have not visited the restaurant yet but will soon.

My husband and I ordered a variety of dishes, new to the restaurant we weren't sure what to expect. We are pleasantly surprised, good portions and prices. The quality was good and delivery speedy. Thanks

Service was faultless, food was restaurant quality. Super fresh authentic flavours and good size portions. Would highly recommend and I consider myself fussy.

I simply love Dragon Boat Crispy Shredded Beef, Szechuan Prawns and Salt/Pepper Squid, It is super delicious, crispy at the outside, soft/tender at the inside and full with Flavor. Simply yummy
