Having been a regular for over 15 years this Saturdays experience has been a total let down On being advised that our order would be ready for 6.30, we were dismayed that collection was at 6.53, whilst numerous clients came in and had there orders dispatched prior to us. My own order,S55,Babi Bangen,was plain and no spices at all had been added. Not impressed with the service or meal at this visit,

I've used the Happy house for several years now for a Chinese takeaway. It's worth the drive to for the food. Prices are good ( a big draw), the lad at the counter is always polite and friendly ( I remember him being alot younger serving and always been the same). The fact they're usually always quite busy is statement in itself really

Recently stated using this place, food is fantastic! My only complaint is that they don’t take a name when taking phone orders so, you have relay your order to them rather than just giving a name

Just started going back again to the Happy House after afew years. The food is good, well packaged, hot and tasty, we recommend the set menu for two very good value. The service is very good and your made welcome and you get a free bag of crackers! As just a takeaway the atmosphere is busy, theres alittle tv on while you wait.

Really disappointed! Saved all my pennies so that I could enjoy a takeaway. Ordered crispy duck, which was not crispy and seemed slimy under the skin. Butterfly King prawns were very over cooked. Used to be the best, dont know what has happened. I will say that the gentleman on the till was really friendly.

Please avoid this place. We’ve lived in the village for over 2 years and we decided to give these guys a chance again because maybe they’re different due to previously bad experiences but no…the food is absolutely disgusting. I don’t understand how some people recommend this place compared to rosy lees! Tasteless and revolting. As part of many people, we do not recommend.

In terms of atmosphere it is a takeaway so nothing special inside. But there are always mags/papers to read while you wait. They're fast and the food is really tasty. The best in the local area.

Having recently moved into the area, we decided to try this takeaway restaurant in Eye. We ordered the 'Chef's Special' set menu for three and were delighted with the quality and portion size - in fact this would have been quite adequate for four persons. Pleasant staff and convenient on-street parking (if you're lucky!). I would highly recommend the New Happy House and we hope to order from them again soon.

Placed order tonight to be collected at 5.50 arrived at 5.45 couldn't find my order then when they did I sat waiting till 6.20 for my order to appear seeing numerous people in this time come in order pay and walk out with their food. Very sorry for the wait was all I received.. Not good enough very poor customer service. Wont be recommending this take away any time soon. The food was not up to standard either.

Really disappointing food. The crispy chilli beef was far far too sweet and artificial tasting. Far too much batter rather than any actual beef inside. Chow mein was tasteless with a pathetic amount of chicken. Prawn toast greasy and flavourless. Overall, really disappointing food and will avoid in future.

Takeaway only. Cash only. Great food at good prices. Chap on the counter is constantly busy and always smiling. The food is the best in Suffolk that we have tasted, coming from Basildon with 30+ Chinese restaurants...we have been spoilt. However, Happy House does not disappoint. Tasty, hot food exactly how flavoursome you Would expect. Nothing is bland....unlike elsewhere......and there are never any “pings” coming from the kitchen. Would recommend all the dishes equally.

Some of the food was great, some below average. They open on a Tuesday, which few Chinese takeaways do - that's why we went there. They don't take cards, which is a drawback. Service was indifferent.

I've tried quite a few items on the menu and I've found them all to be tasty and well prepared. The portion sizes are good the the prices are reasonable, (I think most places tend to charge the same prices). An added bonus is you will usually get free prawn crackers. The staff are friendly and the order is always ready quickly. If I had to list one negative it's that the phone is normally engaged, but I guess that's a byproduct of being busy. Keep up the great work guys. And on a side note remember to take cash as they don't accept cards. There's a cash point just round the corner.

Have had several takeaways from The Happy House. In common with many other Chinese takeaways the crispy beef is more or less just batter. However all the other dishes we have tried have been very good and decent value. Regulars get a bag of crackers and the young lad taking orders is always cheerful. Five star hygiene rating too. Can recommend it.

Our first meal and as it was a pre birthday treat we over ordered. The lemon chicken as were the spring rolls delicious. Prawns with pickled ginger and pineapple was very refreshing and how unusual to find pickled ginger. We had the special fried rice but hadn't realised it came with additional meat, and, because of everything else we ordered would have preferrred a more plain rice. Our mistake....our eyes were a little too big. Pork spare ribs were good and unusually for my husband he chewed around the ?bones. Beef in oyster sauce was delicious..... as you will see we ordered far too much but we were delighted with our takeaway meal and will certainly go back. I wonder if they do prawn balls?......

Reasonably priced Chinese food, a great variety is available and all the food is very well packed, and there is lots of it. All very tasty, the portions are perhaps a little large for those wishing to try a variety of dishes unless there are several eaters!! Considering that dishes are prepared to order the waiting time is not too bad. I have only knocked off a star because the very helpful young man behind the counter has talks rather quickly and can be a bit difficult to understand. May seem unfair to cticise this as obviously English is not his first language, but he could slow down a bit !

We get our Chinese takeaway from Happy House maybe once a month and have done since we moved here two years ago. I've never had a dish which has been less than perfect and never heard anything but positive reviews. The quality is great, and very fairly priced. Parking can be difficult at busy times. But it is worth the walk from the main car park on Buckshorn lane. Overall 10/10

We always used to get our Chinese take away from the happy house under the management of Maggie . Then it changed hands and standards slipped so there were no more Chinese take aways for us! However, we had heard on the grapevine that things had improved lately and so on Saturday we gave it another go and...... It was great! It seems that the Happy House is back on track which is great news!

We will definitely make Happy House our takeaway of choice from now on.

This is a great Chinese take-away - well worth making an effort to get to. The special menu has some great dishes especially the Chinese 5 salt king prawns (S24) which are cooked with loads of fresh red chilies - yummy! Maggie is a lovely person and runs a tight ship so you can be pretty much guaranteed a great meal. We're not too into the ordinary Chinese dishes which are available on the menu so always select the more unusual dishes from the special menu and can recommend these highly. The place is heaving every time we go - which is a great sign in itself - so now always order by phone to save what can be a long wait. Everyone we know has become a convert too so give it a try if your in North Suffolk or South Norfolk if your in the mood for Chinese.
