Little disappointed tonight haven’t had good from here in a while . Ordered prawn chow main as well as other dishes. All made very quick but when Home prawns and chow main burnt over done . Very dissatisfying

This is the worst Chinese takeaway I've ever had. I spent £24 on a takeaway for myself. The squid was revolting ....it was dry and very unappetising. The ribs had clearly been sat in the tub for a long time. They were soggy and had no flavour. The beanshoots with mushrooms were so slimey I literally couldn't eat any of it. Such a let down.

I am really not sure what some of the bad reviews are all about? Having moved up to Biggleswade over a year ago we have tried pretty much all the chinese takeaways in Biggleswade, Potton and Sandy etc. China express at Sandy seemed to be the best and the rest, not sure who has been writing the reviews, but they were terrible....dont even bother! It was a Monday and we fancied a chinese knowing China Express in Sandy was closed so thought we would give this chinese a go. We were a bit fearful admittedly seeing as there were some bad reviews but they seem to be to do with deliery (maybe impacted by Covid at the time?). Anyway, tried it, and glad we did. Prawn balls, banging! Special chow mein, pretty good. Crispy shredded beef, as good as I have had round here. Sweet and aour sauce, lovely, it didnt taste like dish water, which most do round here! Chinese curry sauce - could have been a little better but nothing wrong with it. I love bigging up a good takeaway and this one deserves a good review 👍🏻 This one and China express sandy are the 2 best I have round here.

Not sure why people suggesting dishes poor as this has never been my experience. Staff are friendly to me, but maybe politeness goes a long way? I collect so can't comment on delivery, as such food comes quick and hot!

After reading reviews it is probably not worth complaining (don't answer phone anyway) as probably will not get money back and just get banned as per other people's comments, too!

I honestly believe this is a well deserved 1 star. 0 if I could. I have ordered from them with a friend before and been pleased. This time was just awful. The worst Chinese I've ever had both in terms of taste, price, presentation and customer service! Excessively salty and oily. Bunch of food scraps chucked in a chicken shop box. Driver also shortchanged me by £1. Meal in terms of quantity was worth £6 at most. In terms of quality I wouldn't even throw 20p at it. Absolute rip off for what I've received. Tried my best to enjoy it. Never again. Laying here feeling absolutely awful and debating whether I should sick it up in the toilet bowl. They don't pick up the phone, maybe closed early. I prob got their closing scraps. Who knows. Just avoid them, go to someone else. They clearly don't care about their restaurant or their customers, the fact they never care to atleast upload their menu online or a photo of it at the very least goes to show how much they give a.

Ordered for collection. Got the food home (5 minutes away) and it was stone cold, also I had the incorrect rice. Thought I’d phone them to rectify after 200 calls over 1 hour I finally got through! To be told by the manager they will only refund rice and it’s impossible food is cold my partner must have been late to collect! My battery died on my phone so when we called back (50times to get through this time) the manager refused to speak to us. Shocking customer service. Will never give that company my money again

Best chinese in town! This has been our regular chinese takeout in Biggles for the past year. Recommend trying the honey roast pork, prawns in spring onions and root ginger and the salt and pepper chicken starter.

Limited parking location off main Street on one way system . The food tried several dishes first visit to here chicken wings tasty and well seasoned lots of peppers onions in the dish tasty .chow mein bland tasted had been preheated and warmed through lots of soy sauce added to try and flavour it meat content tiny dry portions .Shop front stand at door and order due to covid but looking round shop needs a tidy up and clean .Person on main desk pleasant enough .overall not the worse I tasted but also short averagely. This could be one off it was midweek service

A solid 3 stars, cheap, cooked well, quick follow all the rules, think my only crutch was the chips were little soggy and the flavour had been affected

Lovely piping hot food delivered on time as always from jumbo! Great value for money. They’re 1/2 restaurants if you want a decent Chinese meal and you’re a Londoner like me.

Updated review. Had a good takeaway recently from here. So upping my review. It’s again my favourite Chinese in Biggleswade. Get a website and put your menu on it though.

Chicken curry sauce, awful running with fat. Chips obviously cooked and reheated, limp and tough. Special chop suey and egg fried rice, good. Very disappointed.

wow. the owner does make a jumbo sausage, its quite enlarged. the burgers taste like chicken nuggets from a Transylvanian restaurant owner by a guy called jimmy the billy that only serves shrimps from the local puddle on a street where a guy gets mugged every sunday, dont even know why he goes down there.

Does anyone actually pick up the phone??? I used to use Jumbo all of the time to order Chinese takeaway, but refuse to anymore as their phone is either constantly engaged or they just never answer! I tried to order this evening but once again the same problem!, so I shall continue to take my custom elsewhere in future!

I'd give this a 3/5 it's ok . Nothing special I think for the price the food quality isn't great but likewise it isn't bad . Service is slow and a bit chaotic, a lot of staff but not a lot going on . I had to go up several times to the waiters to actually get things in motion . The atmosphere is your classic American diner style , works well . There are better places to eat in the resort that's for sure but its just bang average .

I will start with the most concerning thing. The chefs were making the food with their bare hands... No gloves. Not only does this raise questions of adequate separation of meat and non-meat options but brings up very serious concerns about cross contamination and allergy awareness. Sat down and placed our orders... Waited approx 30 mins and when we queried this we were told that we should have been informed by our server there is a 30-45 minute wait (which we weren't). Ordered one of the vegan options and was essentially odd tasting pancakes with raw fruit thrown on top, including raw apples?!. Not exactly something that takes 30 minutes to make. Not only disappointed with the food and service but genuinely concerned with the food hygiene levels here.

The rooms were horrible, the carpet was gross, and the shower was a communal shower for the whole place. The shower didn't even hang up. There was a horrible smell throughout the place. The customers were really noisy and rowdy, and the toilet wasn't fitted to the floor. I do believe this could have been some kind of hostel for immigration and it's definitely not a greene king pub anymore..... The bar staff were lovely and helpful but both were new, Jazz was very helpful, showed us the rooms and got us some drinks. All in all, though, it was a very poor experience, and we never got a good clean night's sleep, which is all we needed.
