Mandarin Garden in Scottish Borders

Food was superb and the staff were lovely. Would defo recommend

Really Good service, very happy guy took our order and treated us very well

Amazing service, delicious food, attractive presentation. 10/10 would recommend

Was staying in area and really fancied a Chinese. Normally avoid due to the salt. I found this unassuming place and very basic seating area behind the take away counter. Food however came out piping hot and fresh - no overpowering salt and generous portion. I really enjoyed and would return if I'm area

Absolutely love this place! The staff are that friendly, pleasant and happy. You come here to be fed and you leave with a full belly and a smile. They all work so hard and the food is ready incredibly quickly, but the food is amazing. I always have the orange chicken and boiled rice. It's easily one of my favourite restaurants as far as quality of food and friendliness of staff. Honestly, they could show other businesses a thing or two about customer service and politeness. It's very popular with the locals and I always think that in itself is a good sign, as it was a local who recommended it to me in the first place. For me, this is 5 stars all day long. My Parents love the food here too and it is well worth the money. Two thumbs up and 5 stars. We really appreciate how hard the staff work and it shows in the quality of the food and service.

On entering the restaurant we were straight into the takeaway part , and even though it was early there was a good feel, it already being busy It is pretty basic none pretentious, we ordered the set menu for two, not only was it delicious there was enough to feed a small village! With drinks and food the price was very reasonable, highly recommended!

Our takeaway was amazing. Didn't eat in so couldn't rate the atmosphere. Will definitely be back. Great quality & value.

Well, what a wonderful time I had. The food was amazing - mixed vegetable soup followed by mixed vegetable rice and a side of beansprouts. The host made me feel so welcome and at ease, a great and friendly man! I love the food, the people and the restaurant! Thank you! Richard Purvey

Local Chinese restaurant and food is always fantastic. Very friendly staff. Small restaurant but cozy

The food is delicious and the service super friendly and nice! I recomend it 100%

Been coming here with my family since I was a wee girl… 22yrs! Meal ALWAYS hits the spot and the service is amazing, Coffee runs this place with such joy and happiness, I will always come back here whenever I visit Peebles, don’t sleep on the Mandarin Garden, you will not be disappointed😍

Food really good very cheerful servi ce dont expect luxury surroundings

The portions for all meals we ordered were LARGE. We definitely ordered too much, but it was all excellent. I have never had better service. The waitstaff was incredible.

This was our first visit here. We had a great time and the food was delicious. The staff were so friendly. It looks like a takeaway from the outside but they have some tables through the back. We will definitely go there again.

We were recommended this restaurant. Visiting Peebles for the weekend. Food was pleasant. Disappointed with decor and ambience of the place. Steady stream of teens coming in to use the toilet - which was not a great experience and certainly not a good look for the restaurant.

Such a kind lovely server and excellent food. 100% recommended

We really enjoyed our meal here. The restaurant is a simple affair just a few tables near to the takeaway counter. Service was quick and friendly. Food was generous and tasty.

Food was good, hosts were friendly. We were there pretty early so can't really rate the atmosphere accurately

Excellent food at a great price. Last minute booking for 6 people and all of us were super happy with our meals!

The food is always great, great service - fast and efficient friendly staff who are well informed and knowledgeable of allergy issues

As residents of Peebles, we like to have the odd takeaway now and again. Last weekend we decided to have a meal delivered to us from here. The food and service is excellent. Our delivery arrived 20 minutes after we ordered over the phone. Definitely value for money. We had rice, lemon chicken, crispy chilli beef, beef in black bean sauce, chicken with spicy salt and pepper and sweet and sour king prawns. All for £40. There was loads left over so we had the remainder the following day. Will definitely come back for more. We have been getting takeaways from here for at least 8 years and never found fault with anything.

In Peebles overnight. Called in for a takeaway. Great service and very friendly. The food was really really good.

What a brilliant place, the staff are fantastic, bright and cheery. The food is always so good and portion size is fantastic. Would deffo recommend.

Best Chinese Takeaway in town. Friendly and fast service

Good portion sizes, with very short waiting time, overall very good if i could give 6 stars i would

It’s been many years since I last visited but went with a group of friends recently. Handy location if you’re in Peebles, just off the High Street. Menu is pretty much what you’d expect, with something for almost everyone. We got a number of dishes to share, including a sharing platter of starters, shredded duck and a few mains and noodles. All were good and tasty. Fairly relaxed atmosphere with the staff team pretty chatty. That said, I’m not sure it’s ever really busy although they obviously do a lot of take aways. I do think the overall experience could made a lot better by smartening up the decor inside. Price is pretty good.

Really great chinese food in the middle of Peebles, super friendly staff and quick service on a quiet thursday :)

Delicious freshly prepared food made with quality produce. Veg Chow Mein was a delight packed with peppers onions mushrooms broccoli and pak choi. Plump juicy chicken in a tangy lemon sauce and delicious tasty duck with pancakes. Generous portions and no wait. Fast efficient service from lovely staff. Well done Mandarin Garden ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Absolutely delicious! it’s my second visit now, and it’s dangerously addictive! :)

What an amazing Chinese takeaway! The food is top quality, fresh and so tasty. It was so good we ate from here two nights in a row and the staff are friendly, helpful and accommodating. We will be popping in whenever we are in Peebles! We highly recommend you give Mandarin Garden a try, you won’t regret it!

Such a wonderful waiter. He is polite, attentive and efficient. The food was out of this world. Succulent meat, delicious chow mein, ridiculously tasty rice. We got a bottle of rosé wine to pair and it was so good for such a great price. 10/10 recommend this restaurant - easily the best Chinese food I’ve ever had!

Found this gem of a Chinese restaurant down a side street in Peebles and glad we did. The place was spotless and the meals we ordered came freshly made and piping hot. I had the Special Fried Rice and my wife the Chicken and beanshoot dish, both very tasty and the portions huge. We had a starter each and we couldn’t finish all the main courses. It’s a must try place if your looking for a quality Chinese restaurant. We will call in again, now we know where it is.

Came in for dinner and ordered the salt and pepper ribs for starters: easily the best I've had. Words cannot describe, you'd have to try them. Followed that with the salt and pepper chicken and, again, some of the tastiest I've had. There's some kind of addictive chilli oil thing going on that's super tasty. Other half got the honey chilli chicken which was equally as scrumptious. Highly recommend :)

Not bad but nothing special! Waiter is a bit stressed but attend politely.. nice treatement to customer.. food was good!

Lovely takeaway, we had curry king prawn and house survival curry with fried rice and chips, very tasty just way too much especially the chips, was like having two bags for cost of one! One thing to note is they use taxis for delivery service, we were quoted £6 but that dropped a couple of quid as we were near Peebles, just be aware of this, guy who took order very polite

Interior is dated. But the food was great.

Fantastic food and great with our daughter

Lovely food and very friendly, warm and attentive service. Our main course was steamed rice, char siew pork with broccoli, chicken with spring onions and ginger, and salt and pepper squid, all of which were excellent. It's very good value for money and definitely worth a visit.

Very tasty food indeed nice pleasant staff very friendly and welcoming would highly recommend 😀

food was absolutely delicious since i’m chinese i had duck and it was lovely xoxo

Excellent service, food was really tasty and hot, exceptional atmosphere, can't recommend enough 🙂

Normal selection, well cooked. Happy staff, nice experience all round.

Best Chinese restaurant and take away I've ever had. Food is delicious, well priced, fresh, and the service is super quick 😋

My husband and I had a fantastic sit in meal last night. Food delicious and great service. Will definitely return soon.

First visit for a takeaway at the Mandarin Garden, we weren't disappointed the food was amazing very hot and tasty, the duck with black pepper sauce was fantastic as was the chicken curry and noodles, very quick service staff were welcoming, warm, friendly and polite. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

So glad we chose to eat here. Service was great. Food absolutely delicious. Tasted very fresh and flavoursome. Decent portions. There were 5 of us and everyone enjoyed their food. Clean plates all round.

Bit of an Institution in Peebles Situated just off The High Street ar the foot of Schoolbrae next to Tweed Green. Wheelchair access on ground floor. Very fast turnaround on take-away and friendly and efficient table service. Extensive menu and very reasonable prices. Children welcome.

Nice food and friendly service. Restaurant was quiet but the takeaway and delivery side of the business was none stop. Good reason for this and that’s because the food was lovely. Will visit again.

Alway greeted with a friendly smile. Food is always hot and flavorful

We had such a fabulous evening here yesterday. Visiting with family from Edinburgh, all we really wanted was an adequate meal with some sweet and sour chicken for our grandson. What we got was an excellent variety of really tasty food (squid, duck, lamb - all delicious). On top of that, though, we received the most delightful service - such fun, entertaining and pleasant people. Any chance you could open in Edinburgh???

Delicious food that was exceptionally tasty! Staff were so friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

Fantastic meal at very reasonable cost, the service was superb . The staff were very friendly and the dishes came out so quickly even though they were very busy with takeaways. Off the main street but we'll worth finding 10/10

Lovely people and lovely food. Ate in and food was great, plentiful and hot. The music was good and the guys there couldn't have been nicer.

Fantastic food and very caring waiters

Excellent food, very friendly staff.

We had a set menu for 4 in the restaurant. It was delicious, fresh and very tasty. Service was excellent. We had a great night last night, thank you so much 😊

Very British style Chinese food, a pretty wide selection, the fried rice was good, the same for the wonton soup. Other dishes were a bit on the sweet and sticky side.

Delicious, had the lemon chicken and beef fried rice. May get the spicy chicken next time!

We booked to dine in on a Saturday evening. When we arrived there was a queue of customers waiting to pick up take away orders. Despite being rammed, and us the only dine in customers, we had a fantastic meal. They were attentive and apologised for the delays- even though the delays were not unreasonable. Chicken fried rice, chicken and cashew nut, crispy duck and crispy chilli beef were just some of the amazing dishes we had. Highly recommend.

Tasty food, fast, friendly service.

Always a decent takeaway, with fast service. As of 22/02/22, dining-in is still unavailable, due to the pandemic.

omg, if u ever pas through Scottish boarders, make sure you stop here...AMAZING. The owner was fun and welcoming. long way for a SFR but I will definitely be back. Thanks for an amazing scran ❤

I've never eaten here but its a clean and professional establishment..

lovely atmosphere and great food!

Lovely staff, best chinese in town, amazing chicken chow main and fried rice

Brilliant tremendous mouth-watering exquisite sensational masterpiece amazing nectar beautiful terrific wowaweewa

Nice food but a bit cold in the restaurant, friendly staff and so much food....👍

We walked a fair way to the restaurant only to find its takeaway only. Not difficult to remedy. All they had to do was note this on their website. Poor customer care.

Ordered a takeaway for delivery to hotel. £8 is a bit steep for delivery. Food was average but plentiful. Prawn crackers were soft and disappointing.

Large order for 8 people prepared in just 20 minutes, very good quality food which tasted great. Gluten free customer catered for.

Great service but can't make a curry sauce

The best take away I’ve ever used

My favourites are RPG chicken fried price and Singapore chow mien, both authentic and extremely tasty, in fact I take three of each to take home a freeze for future use.

This is the only place we didn't get free prawn crackers from after spending over £20 plus for 2 meals

Great Chinese food, amazing and quick service.

We felt like ordering Chinese food. It wasn’t great. Beef in Oyster sauce tasted fishy and bland. The rest of the food was only just ok.

Really nice Chinese food. COVID procedures in place. Delivery an option.

Yummy beef curry fried rice and chips

Very fast service, excellent food.

Still our go-to, great covid precautions now too

Best Chinese food in the area and the service is always perfect. Never had a bad experience in any way.

Best food ever, they cater to your every need and really good prices too, give them a try, you won't be disappointed, Mr Edge 😁

Love this place good for just a quick take away really fast and good service

Just ordered and devoured one of the best carry out meals we have had in a very long time. Excellent food, piping hot and very quick delivery. Highly recomend if you fancy a good Chineese at home or in their very intimate restaurant.

Excellent service, excellent food! We were very impressed with the menu, the staff were fantastic and attentive. Al round, very impressed!

Traditional style restaurant. Small and plainly decorated - don't be fooled by first impressions!The food is superbly cooked using excellent quality ingredients. The authentic tastes are still in each dish - something missing from a lot of Chinese places these days - no "Brown gravy on everything" here.We ordered House Chow Mein, Yung Chow Rice & King Prawn Foo Yung. All superb.Washed down with a couple of ice cold Chineses beers. £30 for two. Great friendly service.Highly recommended - You won't be disappointed!

Great fresh food, good portions and a really friendly family that own it. A real gem

Our regular Takeaway choice of food. Fantastic service from staff . Delicious starters with Salt & pepper specialities superb. Rich variety of mains which tickle the taste buds. Best place for Chinese food far and wide in the Borders 👏

Food that we got was very good but one of the meals was missing. Rather disappointing as I had been looking forward to it.

Great quality and reasonable price

Super friendly restaurant and great food

Great restaurant and take aways done as well, could do with a freshen up as decor so dated and could do with a lick of paint

Food was really nice n fulfilling

Visited last night just after 17:00 for dinner. Staff very friendly, service super quick and the food was really tasty! Only issue I had was the Diet Coke I was given was super flat despite there being can’s in the fridge. If you want fizzy juice specify you want a can

Our go to Chinese! The Mandarin Garden is a superb restaurant with delicious food and brilliant service. The staff never fail to make me smile and you can see they care about the food they are serving! I cannot express how much I love this restaurant and I recommend to all!!

Really enjoyed our takeout. Fast friendly service and generous portions. Called it in, picked up 10 minutes later, and enjoyed some great chow mein.

Visited this establishment this evening (22.10.2019) with my wife. Great welcome ,service was excellent. More importantly the food was excellent. I would definitely return

First time at the Mandarin Garden and it won’t be our last. Decor may be dated but the service was fast and friendly. The food was delicious and was presented beautifully. Unfortunately I couldn’t eat it all as the portions were huge. I would highly recommend folk to come here.

Good food, good service. Usually around 10 minutes for a single meal ordered in the shop. Food can sometimes be quite salty. Best Chinese in town.

On a recent short break to Peebles we decided that we should have a meal in this restaurant due to others being unavailable....it wasn't our first choice but it should've been. We were the only people dining although the takeaway business was booming, however the service from (chocolate?) was amazing. As was the food. Simply classic Chinese food as us westerners would expect. Ribs were awesome as we're our mains.We even heard a demonstration of the Raspberry Split song in the background. What a great little place. Thank you.
