It's probably the best Cantonese food takeaway in and around Oswestry. Steve at the counter is an absolute legend and practised my few words of Chinese Mandarin on him and got taught how to say these properly. My set dinner for one person was absolutely delicious and so well served and worth it. 谢谢 thank you, Steve, and definitely be back for more!

Can't say much about it. I ordered online but that did not work so I rang them and placed my order. I was told what the price was and that it would be due on collection. I drove into Oswestry to collect the takeaway. The girl behind the counter asked for the money and I got my mobile phone out. She then told me it was cash only. I said I should have been told that when I rang the order in and walked out.

Jolly Garden has easily the best Cantonese food in Shropshire. The food was prepared quickly and tasted amazing with no food missing or not what we expected. The young girl behind the desk was very kind and helped answer some questions I had about the food on the menu. But the main reason I believe they have the best Cantonese food in Shropshire is the lack of msg resulting in each dish tasting different and smelling beautiful.

Meal was lovely a big issue we had was we ordered 1 portion of duck spring rolls for me and 1 of vegetable spring rolls for my friend who is vegetarian and both rolls had meat in them. Which my friend really wasn't happy about as she had started eating it when she realised resulting in her buying something that went straight in the bin.

We are still in a global pandemic! I ordered my food at 6:50pm. I was told to collect it at 7:35pm. I actually got my food at 8:32pm, so was kept waiting for best part of an hour and when I got home the battered chicken I had ordered for my autistic child was nothing more than batter scraps with cold chips and they have the audacity to charge £4.40 for the privilege! First time I have been there. Will NOT be going back. No apology. I'd say they're are a joke, but it was not funny!

Having placed our order and given an hour to prepare we arrived at the takeaway yo collect our meal only to wait a further 30 minutes after the agreed time, no apologies, all we got when we asked how long was it’s coming soon.. people came, people went. We arrived home and the food was cold.. so obviously customer retention isn’t part of this takeaways new year strategy. I’m sure our custom will be welcomed elsewhere.

We are new to living in Oswestry and have just been unfortunate to order from this place. We collected our £36.40 order. Arrived home snd fished out to our family, 2 adults 5 children. I took a spoonful of the Chicken Red Curry and immediately spat it out. The chicken was borderline at best cooked, many pieces were still pretty much pink. I put it back in the container and made the journey back to the takeaway. Totally shocked at they’re response. He automatically offered my £4.80 back, without checking. I had to demand him to speak to the chef to check, not seeming bothered, the young lad reluctantly took it thru the dodgy door into the kitchen. He came back out and said, yes, it’s undercooked and handed me £4.80 again. Not good enough in my opinion as it seemed to be brushed under the carpet.

We have used Jolly Garden for 3 years and only just left a review! I love the website which allows you to get points with each order which works out 10% off and you can cash in points in £5 or £10 credits! The barbecued ribs are to die for. The king prawn with ginger and spring onions a definite recommendation and the portions are extremely generous across the whole range. Speedy too. The quality is always consistent and the price is incredible for all the aforementioned reasons! Would love to see a delivery service!!

The food at this takeaway is very good, full of flavour and always tastes fresh. There are several takeaways in Oswestry and the surrounding villages, but none are as good as Jolly Garden. They state that the food does not contain MSGs, and it is notable in the taste of the food that it does NOT taste like your average junk-food Chinese takeaway, it is miles better.

After our recent dismay at the collapse of the Dragon King in Shrewsbury we decided upon a take away and our usual had a 1.5 hour waiting time. So it was time to try a new take away and the Jolly Garden was our choice.The waiting area is clean and does not fall into the usual clichés. The staff friendly and the menu comprehensive. Food is provided in plastic tubs and there was plenty of it.It is beautifully cooked, very tasty, not greasy and no MSG evident. We will definitely be back to the Jolly Garden to try some new tastes from their menu. Delicious!!

I went in last Thursday after ordering a take away via phone. The gentleman on the phone was very pleasant and they made our food quickly- within 20 minutes. The service was very good and I left with my box of food, and they had chucked in a bag of prawn crackers and a big bottle of coke for free. We had bought quite a lot between us- 1/4 of a duck and pancakes, pork chow mein (they have the option whether you want it dry or normal which is good), special chow mein and rice, chips and chips and gravy, and two portions of soup. It came to around £30 altogether, which is good considering we had two specials and duck. The only thing I would say was all of the rice and chow mein was about £5, it is definitely worth it considering the ingredients but I know other Chinese/Cantonese's are cheaper in Oswestry. The place looked clean and fresh. I then tasted the food- wow! The soup was lovely and stayed hot for nearly an hour, as well as the rest of our food. It's so nice to have something from a takeaway that isn't greasy and extremely salty. Everything was really tasty and the duck wasn't dry at all. It also came with fresh cucumber and hoi sin sauce. The spring onions were ok. I will DEFINITELY be coming here again. I am so pleased I gave this take away a go, after being put off the greasy take away Cantonese take aways here. I would even prefer to come here than to go to China Palace which is a proper restaurant! If you want fresh, delicious, great food then go to Jolly Garden. Cannot be beaten in my opinion.

This is by a long shot the best Chinese take away in Oswestry. Don't go anywhere else. I had the crispy duck and shredded beef. My sister had the Thai Green Curry. Both were excellent. The Thai curry especially was very fragrant and authentic tasting. I'm not sure I believe in the theory that MSG is bad for you but one thing is for sure; you don't need it to make delicious Chinese food.

Because my body doesn't tolerate MSG and it's ubiquitous at most Asian restaurants, in the past 8 years I had only eaten Chinese food that we cook at home. Then Jolly Garden opened. No MSG! Of course we had to try it.The food is just right, portions ample and prices very reasonable. We can get one dish (our favourite is king prawn chow mein, dry) and one starter (vegetable pancakes--think 4 spring rolls and you've got the idea) to fill us both for less than £8. This is now our first choice for takeaway.It's across the street from the small Red Square car park. Currently parking is usually free there after 18:00. Around the corner behind Argos, parking is free on Sunday.

bit disappointing sorry, chow mein was cold and needed to be heated up that isn’t a problem, it was the Chinese chicken curry that did it (although the sauce was palatable not great but ok) the actual chicken itself was just extremely watery, stringy tasted like it had been defrosted or the cheapest water based chicken available, had to be thrown out as I couldn’t face eating it disappointing Chinese.
