Buckle up cause this may be a long one. I’ll start with a rough timeline of our night: I see on Just Eat the delivery time is between 60 -75mins . I think that’s a bit longer than usual, but make sense as it’s a Saturday night and they’re probably busy. I place our order in at around 5:45pm which is accepted about 5 mins later. After it’s been confirmed, the estimated delivery time is between 7pm -7:20pm. Not great but again, they’re busy. At 7:30, I decide to call the shop just to see if our order will arrive anytime soon. After all it’s nearing 2 hours since I sent our order in and I’m hungry. A man answers the phone says “I’ve looked it up for you and it’s out for delivery. I can see it went out for delivery. It’s DEFINITELY not here so it’ll be with you soon.” Lovely! I can’t wait to dig in! 7:50pm rolls around and still no food. Now it doesn’t usually take over 20mins to get from Newmarket to Burwell in the evenings, especially if all the roads are clear. I call up again but this time make my mom speak to them as I don’t want to get angry with them. The same man answers immediately apologises, repeats to my mother “the delivery driver is outside! I’m on the phone with him now and he is outside.” So my mother stands outside and wouldn’t you know it! There’s no delivery driver! She tells the man no one is here but he insists there is. It isn’t until my mom says “I’m standing outside and no one is here”. He then backtracks and says “oh… well he’s just got into Burwell! He’s in Burwell now you’ll have it soon! A couple more minutes!” 8:05PM!!! WE FINALLY RECEIVE OUR FOOD. But of course we had to throw everything in the microwave to warm it up as it was all cold. Now I’m a reasonable person. If they would have just sent a text or called to give me a heads up running late, I would’ve accepted it. What really pisses me off about the whole interaction was the lying. They blatantly LIED several times about the delivery driver’s whereabouts. We were loyal customers to Golden Bowl for years, but safe to say we will be looking for a new Chinese takeaway.

Absolutely shocking! Wish I had checked the reviews prior to wasting £40 (which they only accept cash! ) The food was so overcooked.. The dim sum platter was dry and overcooked - the ribs resembled charcoal, in fact when you tried to eat them the shards of burnt "meat* just disintegrated! The chicken satay was the same! The chicken balls are all just a ball of tasteless overcooked dough. In looking into the kitchen which is visible from an unpleasant front area I should of cancelled my order then and there...! Persons working with and packaging food should in my mind have their long hair tied back or covered! Most unhygienic. The carpet at the entrance is disgusting and a sticky mess of who knows what. I was so disappointed with the whole meal and if it wasn't for the fact that this place is far from my residence I would of returned this "food*

I aways use the Golden Bowl for my weekend takeaway treat, on this occasion I ordered amongst other things some sweet and sour pork balls, after the 3rd pork ball I fell badly ill being sick which persisted for the rest of the evening, I honestly haven't felt that ill before, my wife phoned the takeaway to complain and ask for a refund but was met by a very unhelpful receptionist who completely shunned their responsibility and did not want to know, if this is how they treat their good customers then they don't deserve any customers at all, I for one will NEVER use Golden Bowl ever again and I definitely will not recommend them to anyone.

Ordered on Just Eat, order accepted by restaurant (money taken) then immediately rejected as they said there were no couriers. They clearly don’t deliver here. I ordered at 8pm and they don’t close for another 3.5 hours. Total rubbish. Either Just Eat needs to remove them from my search or they need to deliver. There really is no in-between.

Ordered via just eat whereby I paid a delivery charge. It arrived 1hr 15 after I ordered and then when it arrived at our doorstep, we were told we needed to pay a further delivery charge in cash. We had no cash, nor were we informed about this additional delivery charge when we ordered, so the delivery person then said he needed to make a phone call. This is at 9:45pm and we are basically being held hostage at our own doorstep, while they proceeded to argue with me about this delivery charge. Not wanting to be harassed on my own doorstep any longer, I ended up having to close the door on him, and then fortunately (or unfortunately!) he left our order on the doorstep. Everything except for the Singapore rice noodles was bland and watered down and i have never tasted such awful egg fried rice- suffice to say we will never be ordering from here again!

We usually order from here but lately its declined. Everything in chicken in it was very dry in fact the smoked shredded chicken was basically just batter and so sugary.

Long standing customer of 15 years until tonight. Ordered Chicken Balls with ‘Sweet and Sour Sauce’ received curry sauce, simply not the same effect! Called immediately to advise and asked for what I considered to be a reasonable request for a refund of just that dish. I had to press the receptionist to speak to the owner as they had obviously only been instructed to offer a next time discount of 10%. The owner told the receptionist only a £2 refund on the sauce as the chicken balls were ok!!. Realising this was a serious offer I politely expressed my disgust, if I had wanted dry chicken balls I would have ordered them ! Yes, I can accept we are all human but as a business owner you need to sharpen up and show a bit of compassion as whilst only the dish was ruined so was my meal. I appreciate you will probably also not care about a bad review however this is aimed towards potential customers reading this to advise use of alternatives in the town, nearest golden horses just across from this one. I am glad the owner can pick and choose custom when people are now making choices on this type of eating. Here is one less customer you now have all for the sake of £6.80.

First time getting a Chinese takeaway in Newmarket, never again from here. Once we ordered and we’re waiting we noticed how dirty the shop was, the main entrance was terrible, dirty and full of cobwebs, if we had noticed this first we would not have ordered. The food was pretty poor, the sweet and sour vegetables did not seem to have any sweet and sour sauce and I only had couple mouthfuls. The vegetables spring rolls seemed to be lacking vegetables. The boiled rice was ok, but you cant really get that wrong. I won’t be using this Chinese takeaway again.

We ordered on Just Eat. Spent £40.00 what a waste of money. Took 1 hour 30m to deliver. Prawn toasts were green and soggy, ribs very dry, house special chow mein was tasteless (nothing special about it!), satay also dry with no satay sauce but by far the worst was the shredded beef which was dry, hard, pale looking and tasted ‘old’ !! I paid the delivery on the just eat app and the golden bowl phoned me to say there would be a further £3.00 due on delivery!! Terrible food, bad service, total waste of money and very disappointing as we were all looking forward to it. Never, ever again!!

Never again. No thank you! What a rip off. I just cannot believe we paid £18 for what we just ate. This dish you can see in the photo is supposed to be ‘mixed vegetable with cashews in yellow bean sauce’ tbh there was nothing but ‘scraps’ of vegetables. X1 tiny piece of broccoli and believe it or not x1 cashew!!! It’s almost laughable they’re happy to provide that to customers. What makes it even more ridiculous is on the phone they stated they’d increased their prices so we were excited for a lovely full packed vegetable dish... wow were we wrong. We won’t be returning here again. They’re clearly just about quantity and not quality and after explaining why the prices had increased i feel we’ve been completely mugged off. Avoid!

Having had previous good meals, we ordered a takeaway on a Wednesday night and was told it would take 45 mins - 1 hour. After 1 hour 30 mins, and after a phone call to check on progress, the delivery driver eventually turned up, with the first thing said being ‘It’s not my fault!’. We phoned the restaurant to say it was cold, and we were offered a 20% discount on the next order. So disappointing - having moved here 18 months ago we had thought we had a really good Chinese takeaway - unfortunately this is not the case. The food was awful, and the customer service appalling!

Several times now we have been here. Food is getting worse each time and the woman taking orders has no customer service skills and is plain rude. She will start taking your order then the phone rings so she answers that and takes their order, then back to you, phone rings again, so she ditches you. So rude!!!Owner: I suggest you get someone that has interpersonal skills.The shop is always very dirty and the food is getting worse. We have now switched to another chinese takeaway and they are polite, efficient and he food is much better. We won't be going back to the Golden bowl.

Aside from the extensive menu, which includes Thai options, this place delivers to home. We live a few miles away so there's a small fee of s few pounds, which is no big deal, and worth it so you can relax at home. The food itself is tasty, hot, and moreish. We've tried plenty of dishes and enjoyed them all.

Ordered a takeaway - did not arrive on time and we were told different excuses by the shop and the driver. When it finally arrived it wasn’t really worth bothering with and it was practically stone cold. We won’t bother again.

Receptionist what extremely rude on the phone, ended up having to end the call. She hung up on us the first time as we were trying to recieve our post code so just a heads up if your not from england you will need it ready for wherever your staying. We could hear her giving out about us on the phone and she was extremely smart. Very disappointing.

Golden bowl is one of these Chinese’s where on a good day it’s excellent on a bad day it terrible but they do deliver food and also quick if you pick up plus it is a good Chinese for vegetarians and vegans. So I give it 4 out of 5 purely because it’s a great place for a cheeky Chinese on takeaway night

We always order for collection from here and it’s always been really tasty! 10-15 minute wait for the food which is fine and always loads of flavor. Would recommend

The food here was horrible, undercooked stringy chicken and curry sauce that tasted like washing up liquid. The chip were good however I brought them from deep blue 😂👌

Absolutely appalling delivery service! It was late, so I asked for a discount of 10%, and the driver threatened to take the food away! Ended up phoning the restaurant, and informing them of the awful behaviour of the driver. I ordered duck... and it tasted of washing up liquid! £20 for one person, for a disgusting service, and even vile food! I can openly say, I will never order from here again!!

Ordered a takeaway using the just eat app. 20 mins after it was meant to arrive we phoned to see where it was. We were told that they had tried to deliver but when they knocked on the door a man answered and said he didn’t order a takeaway! Funny that because we live in a block of flats that has a security door which you can’t get into unless you have a key or are buzzed in! Also said they called but we received no phone call! So we asked if we could reorder. They said no because we hadn’t accepted the first delivery. What an absolute joke! We have been customers since we moved to Newmarket 2 years ago and order regularly and never had a problem before. Will not be using them again! Disgusted by their so called customer service!

We order takeaway for collection about once a month and it's always fine, I've never had the issues that other google reviewers seem to have with this place. Food is fine. The only complaint I have is in the most recent order the Dim Sum platter only had a tablespoon full of crispy seaweed, and the steamed rice was in a smaller container than normal. Otherwise, happy to use again, as always. Updated: May 2018 - This place continues to be fine and we get a takeaway for collection about once a month or so.

Crispy cremated duck and raw dishes. When we rang to complain the staff hung up rather than sort out the issues. Don’t bother

Takeaway finally arrived over 2 hours after ordering, then I'm told they want an extra £2 delivery or the driver doesn't get paid. I didn't have the cash so had to pay over the phone whilst my takeaway for cold .... this is the 2nd time this has happened. Won't use them again.

We have had takeaway from them a few times now and always so tasty. We are quite picky when it is about Chinese food so this one ticks most boxes for us. Great Crispy chicken with chili. Big portions. Great value for money!

It was a Saturday night, we wanted to chill and couldn’t be bothered to cook so decided to have a treat. We went down and ordered, the takeaway inside isn’t great doesn’t welcome you very well, we waited for our order, got home and ate it didn’t think it was great probably won’t go back. But it’s all down to preference so try it and then decide after

Definitely The Best Chinese Food Around!! It’s the only Chinese around that wasn’t burnt and too salty!! The others definitely stay away from. Sweet sour chicken and chicken chow mein was lovely!!

I bought sesame prawn toast last night,and discovered after I had eaten a whole peice,that it seemed a bit meaty,and not tasting right. So I pulled one apart,and discovered that they have pressed down a peice of poultry,or at least I think it was.to the bread,and covered the mystery meat with sesame seeds. I will now be reporting them,as I don't know what I ate,and someone could get ill from an allergic reaction. And there was no shrimp paste at all.

I would recommend the wok n rock as it has really good food especially the sweet and sour chicken and really friendly customer service and they cater for big groups as they catered very well for our table of 12 adults and 5 children , the service was 100% perfect and would just like to say thank you Hollie for everything you did to make mine and my families evening a really enjoyable experience I will be visiting again on my next visit from The Netherlands . Many thanks Marie
