Maido House Chinese Takeaway in Cambridge

Yet another unjustified set of price rises makes this a very expensive take away establishment. I suspect close to eat in Restaurant prices. Greed inflation has come to Maido….such a shame. And what’s all this about bribing customers to give 5* reviews in return for free crackers?

The best takeaway in Cambridge. I have been going here for years and I love no food more than their Singapore chow mein. The staff are always friendly and the portions are always great.

Amazing food and the customer service is very good

Food is simply not tasty, compared to other Chinese establishments.

Excellent value for money and very nice food.

Easy to order and pay online then collect. A very generous portion size and tasty, plus reasonable prices! And their cashier is a lovely lady!

The food is disgusting nothing tasty Cooked by a unprofessional chef

We really enjoy takeout from Maido House and regularly order House Special Chop Suey and Udon noodle dishes. Food is piping hot, vegetables are not overcooked and everything is ready and as ordered. We liked that they fill the takeout dishes with lots of food. 😋

First and last time I'll order from here. Lots of menus on wall and counter but when I ordered was given less change. Told that the prices had gone up but not put out new menus yet! Would've been nice to tell me before I ordered! Then the rice I ordered was a small portion for >£8!! Lots of other places serve large fried rice portions. Not worth it.

Food is very nice and tasty for a fair price. Food was prepared quickly and didn't have to wait long. Recommended

Very tasty and delicious, friendly service, suitable for my taste. Highly recommended

Take away on 25/10/23 - l ow quality food at above average price - ribs were dry, meatless, poor quality and tasteless. Other dishes packed out with cheap veg and tasteless. People who give this 5 stars have clearly not been to a decent Chinese take away before !

Best Chinese in Cambridge at the moment hand's down. Try 47, 8, 126

Friendly staff and great food 😋

Reliably good food and fast service. Always stick to our favourites but the menu is very varied and we will adventure through it some day!

Really nice food but small portions...

Really good the king prown udon. A bit less tasty the mixed vegetables. In overall really worth the money. Thanks

Delicious food and friendly helpful staff!

All lovely food and service. Have done and will continue to recommend to people who no haven’t tried Maido House

Staff has been very friendly and the food is top-notch! I once forgot to bring cash and they were super understanding.

Been ordering from this place for the past 5 years. Food is consistent, tasty, clean, and affordable!

Had a delivery tonight from Deliveroo excellent food as always, had the pancake rolls (these are huge) and chips you don’t need anything else. I did muck up our order and phoned Maido and the lovely lady on the phone sorted it out and our delivery came within 15 minutes piping hot and tasty. Used Maido for years would recommend them to anyone

We ordered multiple things including crispy chilli chicken,seaweed other chicken dishes as well. Plus some other stuff . All came out promptly and was delicious 😋😋

Not too lucky with my last order, Suppose to be spicy pork, end up eating sweet and sour chicken at home , what a let down guys

Great food, been here a few times. Kids love it.

Its a good solid Chinese takeaway, had a set menu so can't really say much other than it was good decent food.

Currently our go to Chinese in Cambridge! Amazing food, decent portions and average prices.

I won’t get food from here again ,,shocking !!!!! ,,, I had a beef chow main and chips ,, the beef I wouldn’t give to a rat ,, every bit was soooo fatty and like rubber ,if you showed this to someone and asked them what meat that was ,I bet they’d never be able to tell you… 1 star for the chips.

Having just been up the hospital I opted in for a take away rather than cooking at home. The food was ready within 5 minutes. I had chicken curry. The food was just okay, nothing spectacular and certainly not something I wouldnt have been able to cook myself. Chicken curry was almost as if it had been frozen before?? Simple thin slices of chicken, mushroom, onion and peas in curry (ish) sauce. Certainly did not have that curry kick. No napkins and no prawn crackers provided.. would have been nice. Overall I have had high Hopes but slightly disappointed. I don't think I will order again. Had the food been more pricey, I would have gone back for a refund . Confused as to why the reviews are good

Okay, but too much tomato in the sweet and sour sauce

One of the better Chinese takeaways in Cambridge providing great food with great front of house service...well done guys

Great customer service, fresh, hot and big portions of food highly recommended

Lovely food always hot when get home with it quick friendly service good value for money no complaints from me

Mieszkałem w Cambridge 3 lata 2006-2009 i tam jadłem najlepsze Chinese Food gdziekolwiek wcześniej czy później byłem. Cambridge kojarzę właśnie z Maido. Planuje wyjazd do Cambridge i nie myśle o zabytkach muzeach aby odwiedzić to piękne miasto a o Maido House. Mam nadzieje że będzie tak samo smakowało jak kiedyś. Polecam

Been going here since I was 18 now I am 62 and they have never disappointed. One of the best always

100% the best Chinese takeout in Cambridge

Always amazing fresh authentic food. We're never disappointed. They also are very good at observing food allergies.

I ordered takeaway from here today and I called them and requested them to make it spicy and they failed to meet our request. It was bland and lacked flavour which is disappointing especially because it’s £7. I’ve had better for cheaper! The chow Mein has no vegetables or anything in it. The only good thing about it was the fact that it was hot. Never ordering from here again.

In all the years I've gone here, not had a bad Chinese. Best Chinese in cambridge

Our go to Chinese Takeaway in Cambridge. Have tried others but we always go back to Maido. Great food and service. Just had a meal tonight and as usual it was delicious. So lucky to have this great takeaway on our doorstep. Highly recommended.

Love the food before the lockdown and love it during the lockdown. It’s. family business the husband and wife are so lovely people.

Friendly and tasty, been using Madio House for over 40 years 👍

A lovely family run takeaway. We have had takeaway from heat for years, old fashioned Chinese always guaranteed tasty food.

One of the best chinese takeaways in the area, always good. Our family and friends always go there.very clean as well.

Excellent food and very good customer service

I phoned for a collection Beef Cow me in Special fried rice Chicken sweet and Sour balls they advised ready to collect in 10 mins Food was spot on

Friendly staff, food tastes great, fast service, decent prices

Not as good as I remember but still decent

I had the children chow main, it was unreal, so good, everyone should come here. I’ll be coming again!!

very clean ,great food ,good value and always super quick .First choice for takeaway food .I always order my fav sweet /sour chicken the best !

El amplio menú de Maido ofrece algo para todos. Por la naturaleza de una comida para llevar, la comida está recién hecha a pedido, pero su calidad es siempre excelente.Merece la pena esperar hasta que llegue al orden para poder apreciar completamente el fantástico menú de Maido. Habiendo dicho eso, por lo general ordeno que su langostino sea chow mein porque es muy bueno.Maido ha ofrecido un servicio consistente y amigable por años. Ubicado en el borde de Cambridge, es pequeño pero está perfectamente formado y es fácil de encontrar; y definitivamente vale la pena un desvío si no eres local.Muy recomendable.

First time for this takeaway very impressed food was red hot and tasted absolutely buitful place is very clean and the young lady who served me was very polite and very helpful as we were down from Newcastle visiting friends in Cambridge we were recommended this place so gave it a try spot on

Nice staff, swift service. We ordered, egg fried rice, chicken chow mein, sweet and sour chicken, beef within mushrooms & prawn toast.

Authentic Cantonese food, very friendly and great service The house special noodle is one of my many favourites

Easily the best Chinese takeout place in Cambridge!! Small family run place that has been around for long time. Unlike many of its peers it's also super clean and feels/looks very hygienic.

Fast and friendly service. Just what you would expect, and want, from a take-away in this price range.

Good portions at a good price....

We stayed at The Holly Tree BnB in Cambridge and got recommended by the staff Maido House Chinese Take Away. It is in walking distance to the BnB so very convenient. Food is excellent and plentiful and the service welcoming, polite and friendly.

Good been curd selection, friendly and clean. Food was very good, main dishes cheap, yet the sundries expensive. Enjoyed it, will go back again. Fresh tasting dishes and the king prawn with bean shoots was sublime.

Great food every time great service friendly owners best in Cambridge for takeout

He viajado mucho y he estado en muchos buenos restaurantes de todo el mundo. Presentado por un amigo y muy agradecido.

This is my local Chinese Takeaway which I rate very highly. Food is always excellent and of very good value. Staff are good.

The cleanest best Chinese in town. no fuss no longness straight up quick lovely food

I have been using Maido House for many years under a number of different owners. the food has been consistently of good quality and the service both efficient and invariably friendy

Best Chinese takeaway in Cambridge.

The best Chinese around here in our opinion.

Este es nuestro favorito chino "para llevar" localmente. La comida está recién preparada y siempre sabrosos.

The food is amazing! The big spring rolls are particularly good. They don't deliver but the service is really speedy.

Quality take away. Amazing beef chowmain and chicken wings. 10/10 customer service, definetly part of my routine now.

El Maido ha sido mi favorito para llevar chino en Cambridge durante muchos años y, después de tener una comida para llevar recientemente por primera vez en años, estoy muy contento de decir que todavía es digno de su estatus.

Excelente comida, excelente servicio, generosas porciones.

Ordered a takeaway which was ready promptly, very tasty and good value. Had a set meal that plentiful, would definitely visit again.

La comida es probablemente un 7 - 8 de 10. Hemos tenido un par de sitios desde aquí. Son rápido y sabe bien. Es un poco caro, pero bien. La mayoría de los otros lugares hacer un 10 - 15% de descuento para estudiantes en colección - este lugar no.

Just pick up two chow main very dry and very little meat will not use again.

I love every time I go here, the service is lovely always they make good friends with customers and have great food and prices definitely worth it! Also it has a great location for other places to go to.

Maido House is a very small take away place. The woman taking the order was friendly, but the food wa not even OK (but very inexpensive). Unfortunately, their signature dishes (Sichuan dishes) were the least tasty.

Una vez dieron la orden equivocada y se portaron muy bien, su pollo schaizwan es precioso (perdón por la ortografía jajaja)

Lovely food, well made and feels fresh. Only downside is they don't do delivery but you can call and order and go collect it in about 10 minutes.

Though Maido House is our nearest Chinese takeaway, I have to report that the meal we just had was very poor and borderied on inedible. We had mushroom curry that was mostly big chunks of stewed onions, a few bits of funghi and a watery brown sauce. It was pretty tasteless and we had to soak it in our own soy sauce to make it in any way palatable. But there is worse to come - the Chicken with Cashews was nothing short of horrible. A few diced frozen carrots and a small handful of cashews did little to overcome the look and taste of the chicken pieces: over-boiled, anaemic, and with a nasty aftertaste. It was, I am sure, victim of being stewed for hours in boiling water. It was limp and unpleasant. I couldn't eat it and it has been binned. The only saving grace was the dry, well cooked plain rice which did a good job of removing the nasty taste of that chicken. That's my last visit. Count us out.

Lovely staff and service. Beautiful food!! Wouldn't go anywhere else!

Quando si ha voglia di cibo cinese/giapponese al volo è l'ideale! C'è sempre molta gente, quindi fare la fila è normale, ma ne vale assolutamente la pena. I prezzi sono comunque ragionevoli e con 20euro mangi in abbondanza! Semplicemente sconsiglio il temaki perché è da montare e se non capisci al volo come si fa ci perdi un sacco di tempo!

It's a takeaway not a fine dining experience! What you see is what you get.......I love the service, the speed of service (always 10 minutes), the reasonable price and the size of portions. Only ever had 1 poor experience but had 1000's of good ones, which more than makes up for it.Recommended as a good place to buy takeaway from

Went there tonight and had the BEST chinese take out Ive had in a long time. Well done!

I really wanted Maido House to be good as it's the closest takeaway to my house. After three tries, the most recent being the worst, it's over! Spring rolls the size and texture of a toilet roll tube, stuffed with limp grey bean sprouts and wrapped in the worst batter I've ever seen. Inedible. Chicken Kung Pao like McNuggets in toffee apple coating with crushed peanuts and nothing else. Inedible. Vegetable Noodles like a hastily prepared student pot noodle. Inedible. This is a Chinese family making a living cooking chinese food in a chinese restaurant. How can it be so bad? I will always support the locals but to have NOTHING edible for £ 14.00 - sorry.

The food is always excellent from the Maido House and the service is speedy. Ordering on the phone is a breeze and the food can be collected in ten or so minutes. The food is nice and hot.

Always blunt and quiet but the food is the best in Cambridge by a mile. Tasty food although I have bean curd which they always overcook. Even though I got chicken noodles, I'd still go back

Having tried a few in Cambridge this is our Chinese Takeaway of choice, and we're really pleased with it. We've tried lots of the dishes - they're great and good value too. The staff are friendly, and service is fast if it's not too busy. Would recommend the crispy chilli beef.

Nice food with good portion size! Though quality between dishes vary.
