When the food arrived it had leaked all in the bag. There was not enough sauce in the sweet and sour pork. The meal for one was dry and crammed into one container.

I thought I would give their fish and chips a try and they were pretty good. A decent size piece of cod, well cooked in a nice light batter. The chips were a bit thinner than usual chip shop chips but were nice and crisp and neither were greasy. Both were cooked fresh to order. The food was packed in a cardboard box so stayed warm and didn’t go soggy. It would be nice if they added mushy peas to the menu, and an option of small or large chips. The cod and chips cost £9.70.

I would say this is an authentic Chinese takeaway experience. The portions tend to be large, packed with flavour (usually) and the lady taking our order was nice. It comes with inconsistencies since sometimes something is a bit too salty or bland. But the flavours are bolder and deeper than you will find for takeaways that cater for the general population. It is worth the risk to try it. I have had over 4000 Chinese takeaways and you can tell the potential is there.

Great food and reasonable prices, they do deliver but can be touch and go if they are on just eat which is the only way they accept card payments. If they deliver themselves or you collect it’s cash only which is a bit of a pain at times as rarely have cash on me, so have to detour to the garage for a cashpoint that is free to use. Lovely people running it, parking is awful if you collect as residential road. But the food is worth the aggro

My first meal from here and not a good experience. All dishes with sauce had a strong vinegar flavour which was rather unpleasant. The beef with mushrooms was excessively salty. The sweet and sour pork was full of gristle. The chow mein was the best dish we had. All in all a huge disappointment and very expensive for what we got. I would not recommend, and would not return there. I will try other Chinese takeaways in the area.

I had a comment from picking it up from my door from a neighbour, i i said yes im in isolation, back from a neighbour "yes we all are" . I have 2 daughter's who don't live with me and a granddaughter who has gov19. So everyone out there DON'T judge, im isolating too be safe for eachother. Ho ho after in tears the well wish note was VERY much appreciated. But that made me feel HAPPY tears. Some people need to be aware this is hard. Ho ho thank you for a beautiful note.

OK, so this is a Chinese takeaway not a Michelin starred restaurant so you have to apply some perspective. First time we've used HO HO, as the other two closer takeaways are BOTH shut on Tuesday (?) Really excellent food. Crispy duck was tender and tasty and not fried to a frazzle like it can sometimes be. Special chow mein very good, full of sauce, chicken and vegetables, chicken curry was SUPERB!! Chilli crispy beef was delicious, sauce tasted of honey? Rice and other bits all good. We fed 5 people and the cost was £50 which I think included delivery, which was on time. Certainly enough food! We will definitely use HO HO again. The other places are 'fired'.

Absolutely awful. Tried for the first time for delivery for 4 people . If you like salt this is the place to go. None of us ate more than a few mouthfuls before leaving the food as so much salt we were gagging and desperate for a drink . We ordered 6 different dishes so can’t even say it was a mistake with one dish as all exactly the same. Total waste of money and had to order elsewhere -oriental express which was amazing

Wrong order delivered, rudely told it was our fault so take it up with Just-Eat! Chicken instead of prawn & my daughter doesn't eat chicken so this wouldn't have happened! We paid for the correct dish to be delivered again! Mushroom rice included fried egg!! I don't like egg & would assume that a pre cooked egg fried rice was mixed in! Tofu which is usually a favourite was SO over cooked it was beyond rubbery & almost inedible! Rice was stodgy & sadly the whole experience was bland! My daughter had used Ho Ho before & loved it. This was our first time & she said that it was completely different & really poor! New chef? Anyway, we won't be using Ho Ho again!

We ordered a takeaway via JustEat last night which when it turned up included a chicken dish instead of the king prawn one my daughter wanted. We rang Ho Ho who weren't very helpful, basically accusing us of ordering the wrong dish even though we told them that she doesn't eat chicken so wouldn't have ordered it! They eventually agreed to send us the right dish but we would have to pay for it & take the problem up with JustEat! The food was bland and stodgy! There was egg in the mushroom rice which would suggest it had been mixed with egg fried rice...I don't like eggs! The tofu,usually a favourite was SO over cooked it was almost inedible, and the spring rolls tasted of old oil! This was our first time of using Ho Ho although my daughter had used them before & said that the food last time was completely different & much better so wondered if it was a different chef? We won't be using them again!

No creo que se pueda conseguir un pollo en brotes de soja, Vegetales mixtos y el pescado y patatas fritas equivocado. Yo estaba equivocado. Las verduras mixtas estaba bien pero el pollo asado era más difícil cocidos, así que no podía masticar y la salsa que estaba tenía un muy desagradable tang. Tuve que en todo el pollo lejos como comestible. El pescado y las patatas fritas consistía en patatas fritas que estaban grasientos y daba sólo puedo asumir que se han preparado más de una vez. Pescado y patatas fritas todos pasta grasienta y tanto pescado como un dedo viscoso gris de pescado. Esta fue una experiencia horrible.

A long time ago, I used this takeaway all the time but the business was passed from Mr Hoho to his younger family who decided to change the food. I tried it twice and twice I was unimpressed and so I have not been back for years.Last night, I decided to get a Thai curry for my wife and I. I asked how hot it was and was told, mild so I ordered one 'mild' and one hotter one for me.I was advised that the hotter one has an X on the lid.Once home, served up.My wifes one was not mild at all. She really doesn't like hot spices (the Korma type in an Indian). THis was really quite hot and she abandoned it half way through.Mine was actually much the same but had some red chillies thrown in. It was bland and just about OK - far from deliciousI shall return to staying awayI cannot recommend this place at all.

We occasionally have a takeaway from Ho Ho. In the past, the food has been OK but nothing special to be honest. And there has always been a hint of monosodium glutamate, which I don't like.We ordered a meal from Ho Ho tonight and the improvement was significant. The food was much fresher. More fresh vegetables, lighter and little or no sign of MSG.I really hope that this improvement is maintained and look forward to another meal from Ho Ho.

Without doubt the worst food iv'e ever eaten from a takeaway.I doubt this food is fit for human consumption and as soon as I and a few fiends had eaten a bit from each dish we new it was bad news. Chow main dry and burnt, ribs slimey and and smelt like dog s**t. Thai green curry beef was so thick and and the sauce was not green curry. It was thick, lumpy and tasted disgusting. NO vegetables just mangy beef and thick sauce. The beef tasted like jelly and was probably the lowest quality iv'e had. I like hot food but this was scorching as soon as you ate it your insides where on fire. It was barely edible and was actually causing me stomach issues while I was eating it. The other dishes where beef with Chinese style veg, borderline prison food. You get a takeaway to treat yourself but that was punishment and we had to pay £40 for the privilege. Should have known by the menu, offering absolutely everything from Chinese, thai, British fish n chips etc. Jack of all master of none. If your human don't eat from here is all I can say. The rude driver who turned up forgot our cans of coke and prawn crackers. Does that 20 times a night he's making a a few quid isn't he. Awful food awful service.

Very disappointed. Bland over cooked greasy food. Service is slow even though not busy. The takeaway has been in the village as long as I’ve been alive but unfortunately a few years ago it got taken over by a new family and has gone down hill ever since. First time we had been in about a year as it wasn’t great last time but gave the benefit of the doubt but definitely won’t bother again. Over priced over cooked slop.
