Mandarin House in Bedford

AVOID!!!!!!! Never Delivered and Never updated me to say the order had been cancelled. I Pre ordered for a delivery at 20:45, the order was accepted, I got notification that the deliver was enroute at 20:40. At this point I understood my delivery would probably be 20 minutes late, I appreciate this being new years eve. By 21:30 my food hadn't arrived, by this time if it had I thought it would be cold so would. Try to call the restaurant who were avoiding all calls. Eventually get through at 21:49 asking for an update of order. To get 'all orders are cancelled and then they hung up. Not even an apology, I mean on new years eve where else do you get a new order for Indian food. Completely ruined my night!!!!! I would have re ordered from here again as the food is nice, if they would have just declined the order, or called my apologising earlier to say they can't keep to their commitment, that wouldn't have been a problem and I could have re ordered from elsewhere and for them not even to apologise. Please, if you want your food on time or even delivered dont order from here!!!!!!!!!!!

I’ve been coming to Poddington Garden Centre for over 25 years and remember it fondly as a family-run business with knowledgable staff and a massive range of high quality plants. It’s a bit of a drive to get there for me, but it used to be worth it, as Poddington stood out then, as the premier local garden centre. Sadly it has declined massively no longer deserves that title. The range and quality of the plants and other gardening items have reduced significantly. The inside section seems to have mostly been switched to selling budget items and loads of groceries. It was like a mini B & M homestore. The indoor plants section is a shadow of its former self, in terms of range of plants and quality. I guess it’s handy for the locals and does sell a lot of stuff, but I won’t be coming again.

Awful awful food. Cold. Stale. Late. Never again

Giving one star in itself is even too much for this restaurant. The staff was very horrible and not accommodating at all. When asked for ketchup very stingy with the sauces even tho we ordered two large meals, with cheese melts and chicken fries. They gave us two ketchup. When asked for more they refused and when asked for sauces for the chicken fries she rudely handled the situation by refusing. When asking for the manager, the manager made us wait 5 min because he was on call and when he came to talk he just looked angry no smile or no customer service. The buns were so stale and the fries were fried from old oil. When asking for a refund they refused save to say we will never come back. I recommend you all to stay as far away from this restaurant as possible and go dine somewhere else. We decided to take the food and eat somewhere else since we didn’t want to see such horrible people

3 different days tried to order food, and the restaurant never accepted took about 30 mins till I was told that they cancelled my order!!!
