Golden Bowl in Oldham

Food was fantastic cooked fresh and hot can highly recommend the chicken fried rice chips and sweet and sour chicken and at a very reasonable price thank you kwok will definitely be back👍

Great takeaway. The food is brilliant and the staff are very friendly. I normally get sweet and sour pork or crispy duck but there is a vast array of different dishes on the menu to choose from. I also don’t live that far away from it so it’s always piping hot when I get it home.

Food was very Nice specially chicken tikka Shashlik and Biryani.

If you suffer with allergies - give this place a miss. I am left extremely disappointed with the service and situation that happened today. I went with a friend to check out the new brunch menu. Upon arrival, I informed the waiter of my severe allergies. He was completely dismissive of them and only went to double check with the kitchen staff about the allergens after my persistent insistence. I ordered my food and it was lovely. However, upon the food arriving, I stated that it looked like sesame seeds were on it and some form of mayonnaise - both of which I have allergies to and I had declared clearly, SEVERAL times. The waiter went back to the kitchen to double check and came out huffing and was very rude to me and stated “we don’t use sesame on anything, it’s tomato seeds. It’s not mayonnaise either”. I said fine and ate my food. I had declared all my allergens and they were dismissed. Halfway through eating, I could feel myself becoming unwell. I took my allergy medication, paid for the meal and left the restaurant. Prior to leaving, I spoke to the manager. I explained all that had happened and that the staff evidently needs better education on the severity of allergies. Had my reaction been more severe, I could’ve ended up in hospital, allergies are life threatening and the fact that this place was so dismissive, upsets me. The manager gave me an apology and a few embarrassing excuses, which frankly, didn’t help me and won’t help anyone else who has allergies. The manager stated the waiter was of foreign background and did not understand the severity of allergies. I stated, that does not help me and is evidently an issue he should deal with. The second excuse was - the brunch menu is new, the allergy menu just hasn’t been printed yet. Again, nowhere near good enough. As per the FSA guidance, if you don’t have allergen menu, then you should have a sign in a clearly visible area to encourage customers with allergies to ask staff. And staff, should clearly be able to help a customer with allergies and be aware of allergens. The manager did nothing other than offer me a half hearted apology and a bundle of excuses, followed with “you have to forgive us and give us another chance. If you were to take this further we could be shut down.” They did nothing to try and make me feel better, nor did they seem to grasp the severity of the situation at hand. I reiterated - if I ended up in hospital, my life could’ve been lost. They are LUCKY that I had a moderate reaction that I could manage myself and didn’t need hospital attention for. They have clearly fallen short of expectation, guidance and the law. I’m left bitterly disappointed and exhausted from my allergic reaction today. I hope that they can take this review and learn something, so that other allergy sufferers, like myself are taken seriously in the future.

I enjoyed the service there the meal was a good price and plenty of it
