Mayflower Chinese Takeaway in Amber Valley

always great service. was a bit gutted the hadn't got any crispy seaweed. but still a 10/10 from us

Food was terrible. Delivery man started shouting because I didn't understand what he wanted. Terrible service.

Words cannot describe how delightful it was to have a good meal tonight this restaurant has delivered to me on time polite at the door and the food was delicious recommend 10/10!!

Beef was fatty & chicken was slimy

Most of the food OK but the omelette was very runny, no-one likes snotty eggs, so disappointed

Disgusting. Hardly any meat, packed out with carrots & onions. Utter waste of money, will not be using again

Always a great experience. Top quality food, polite staff. 5/5

The food was very bland and tasteless, I am disappointed as I was looking forward to this.

Food was really hot and it was delicious, the pork dumplings were the best I’ve ever had and the deliverer was nice and polite. Customer service top notch.

They started delivering at 6:00 my food arrived at 5:30 excellent food really enjoyed it will order again

Always hot and delicious, highly recommend

Food was poor. Chichen was chewy and strandy. Never had chicken like it before in my life to be fair. Food was also very salty, not impressed at all, so i won't be looking at restaurant reviews in the future...

Food arrived on time so the service was good however, I was disappointed with the quality. The chicken and sweetcorn soup was disappointing and this ended up being a very expensive meal which I didn’t eat.

Really lovely food! Will definitely order from here again!

Really nice and lovely delivery person

food was cold and not cooked properly not happy concidering im pregnant £23 worth of food had to go in the bin because i physically couldn’t eat it

Decided to order here as they offer Thai red curry. Order arrived early but they got the order wrong. Delivered chicken satay skewers (peanuts) when I ordered salt and pepper chicken, they also delivered some generic chicken Chinese dish rathe than Thai red curry. Called them straight away and they sent the delivery driver back. She tried to tell me the Chinese chicken dish was Thai red curry but it most defiantly wasn’t. It didn’t smell, taste or look anything like a Thai curry, it hadn’t seen coconut milk in its life! She took both dishes back and then after 2 more phone calls they cooked and re-sent the salt and pepper chicken. They offered to put coconut milk into the thai dish and re-heat it…err no thanks, just refund it! Had to put res rod order in the oven whilst we waited for the lay dish to arrive which was about 45 mins after the initial order. As my partners thai curry was a disaster he had to drive out and get fish and chips! (More cost and time) So finally me and my mum got to eat the Chinese, it was so underwhelming! The pork dumplings had no taste and the pastry was gloopy and thick, I only ate half of one dumpling throwing the rest away. We ordered mushroom fried rice but only to go with the Thai curry so no one wanted that. My mums pork fried rice was so bland, literally boiled rice with a few pork bits and peas. The salt and pepper chicken was ok. We spent over £40 on takeaway and threw 80% of it in the bin. Never again will I order from here, don’t know how they got so many great reviews. Also as a side note, you can’t be sending people dishes with peanuts in it randomly, if one of us had a peanut allergy the whole order would of had to be returned! As it was trying to navigate the menu as a diabetic turned out to be difficult when dishes were sent not as described or passed of as other items.

I enjoy the food from the Mayflower and will keep ordering from there because it takes like proper food, not just fast food, it tastes home cooked - full of flavour and fresh ingredients.

Absolutely beautiful food and amazing delivery times.

Always delicious, great portions and a lovely delivery driver. Won't go anywhere else!

Very pleasant lady delivered our Beef Curry and Sweet n Sour King Prawns Balls. My curry was lovely and Pete said the King Prawn Balls were the best he's had! Not over cooked so nice and succulent. Very pleased, thank you May Flower!

The chicken balls where very soggy and the batter was too thick it was a little tasteless. The duck pancakes though were lovely.

One of the best takeaways I’ve had. Delivery was fast and food was tasty and hot

Last night's was superb, back how I remembered after a couple of hit and miss ones. Very nice 👌

The food has been a disaster. The noodles were too crispy and looked like somebody fried some cup noodles. Also the beef looked more like gum and wasn’t eateble at all. And more shrimps in the meal would good. And the dish needs more sauce. The duck in the Roast Duck Chow Mein was anything but roasted which was really a disappointment. The fried chicken sweet sour could have used more sauce. I hope you can fix this to make your meals better

The service quality already guaranteed a good review, but the food itself was so nice! Very tasty and hot, the king prawn curry had a lot of onions and not many prawns but it was very tasty, the samosas where so good but too spicy for me... I'll have the second one tomorrow with a glass of milk! Loved the crispy seaweed, not too salty like I found elsewhere. Thank you for everything, will definitely order again!

Food was bland and didn’t taste very nice

very nice hot food, generous portions and the delivery lady was lovely

Nice and hot and lovely delivery driver my only criticism would be the chicken wasn't great in the curry

Always delicious (especially the salt and pepper chips) thank you 😃

Best Chinese I have had around this area! 5* customer service, the restaurant called me to ask if I was vegetarian because the BBQ sauce contained meat and the lady was so so lovely on the phone and it was also the best delivery we have received as the lady who rang us also delivered our food and we have a very protective doberman dog who always barks and growls at people who come to the door but the lovely lady who came to our door was so softly spoken and happy that our dog didn't react aggressively but actually wanted to be fussed by her, I will be buying my Chinese from this restaurant from now on! Much love to the amazing lady who works here ❤️ also thank you for the freebies included they was very much appreciated xx

First time using may flower I was not disappointed really nice clean good will definitely recommend

Salt & pepper king prawns were awesome. Will be ordering again.

The rice was over cooked the beef was tough and the chicken was stringy.

Won ton’s burnt and unbelievably greasy, Chicken fried rice bland and tasteless, chicken tasted weird too, worst was the bbq ribs - the sauce wasn’t bbq, some weird very salty gravy stuff. Chips were alright though.

The food wasn’t great. Sugary soup with no flavour and watery sweet and sour

Always order from May Flower but tonight’s or was not very nice, the chips were over cooked and hard, the chicken in both the fried rice & chow mein tasted weird and didn’t look great. Always look forward to our Chinese food from here but really disappointed with tonight’s order.

The food was not fresh, never usually a problem

One of the best Chinese takeaways in the area

Love love love this Chinese 😍 they’ve always been amazing and they always outdo themselves!! Amazing customer service, always on time and the food is fresh and piping hot! 10/10 every time!

Food was amazing, piping hot full of flavour and there was loads there it was early delivery driver was lovely and polite I don’t have a single complaint

I phoned and asked for an item on the menu to be adapted for an elderly relative and they phoned me back to check exactly what I needed. I hadn't ordered from them before, but everything was well cared for, well presented, and the food was delicious. I often get a Szechwan dish for restaurants and May Flower did it properly. I had a cold and I could still taste it. No watery sauce, good flavour. Much appreciated. Will be ordering again.

Food was amazing as always. Thank you. See you again next week.

Always excellent food and service from May Flower

Very nice as usual our favorite Chinese now.

Every dish was delicious and hot. By far the best Chinese takeaway we have had in the area and we'll be sticking to The May Flower in the future!

No taste to the chow mein…..very bland Salt and peeper chicken and chilli chicken way too hot not edible

Lovely food, never had a bad order.

Ordered from May Flower for the first time last night, food came earlier than expected. Food was delicious! Tried different Chinese takeaways where we previously lived and I think this is our favourite so far! Food was very hot when it arrived, the delivery lady was lovely and friendly! Would definitely recommend and would order again from May Flower. Thank you for the yummy food!

this is the highest rated place on just eat in my area and i really would like to warn you away from it. i'm going to be as none bias as i can be considering i had a very bad customer experience over all. - the food was early at the door the lady was nice as she delivered - Singapore vermicelli tasted of coconut which was really far from right at all it was not edible - special fried rice (moist) was what it was supposed to be but it wasn't my thing maybe someone could like it. - Sweet and sour chicken in Cantonese style, the crunchy outside of the chicken was actually pretty good but the sauce was weak in flavour it was the most edible thing to me personally out of what was ordered. i would still say it was average at best. so I called to ask about my Singapore vermicelli, I didn't try to start an argument, i wanted to be as civil as possible, even though i really didn't enjoy my whole meal overall. all i wanted was a refund on the one item that was objectively not correct i didn't get childish and tell them the whole meal was bad and i didn't shout at them even though i'm the idiot wasting my money here. In response they told me it can't have touched coconut which there's no actual way it hadn't, all i could taste was coconut, she got angry with me and then she asked her chef who said he hadn't done it? i guess... but clearly he had. she just argued at me for about 5 minutes while i just calmly asked for a refund for the 1 item that was cooked wrong and once again i never told them the whole meal was bad or try and spark conflict even after that, then i had the phone put down on me with no answers. maybe i was unlucky, but if you've not been here before it's not worth the risk. I certainly will never order from this place again.

Great dishes and fantastic service

Dumplings stodgy and chewy, very poor. Garlic chips were good, curry sayce tasted weird. Ribs were so so. Very underwhelming.

It was way too Greasey, the salt and pepper king prawns especially; everything was soggy. S&S didn't taste right. The seaweed was mostly sugar. Will not return.

wow just wow! how could i describe the food terrible salty poor strange taste ......... goto mcdonalds

Fantastic food, delivery driver was lovely also.

Our first order, blown away. Everything was well cooked, highly flavoured, well presented, delicious. Really impressed, will use again and again.

Food looked good, piping hot, totally delicious, made with care and attention to detail. A cut above the other local takeaways. Awesome!

Some of the better quality Chinese and Thai food I've had, yummy 😋

Fantastic meal, really nice people too !

The meat was tough strange taste to chow mien curry was watery

Food arrived within half an hour of ordering bit of a RED FLAG on a Saturday night.It was greasey really fatty meat and tasteless.I rang to complain and apparently unless you have all the food to return they don't offer any refund.SHAMBOLIC SERVICE first time I've complained in 3years of using them

Food was near inedible, curry had a weird luminous green glow like it was radioactive, prawns were soggy and sparse and I'm currently waiting for a stomach collapse

Been to many of the local Chinese restaurants and non come close to the mayflower

Excellent food as always, piping hot and fresh.

Always on time and always super fresh. Last time we ordered they rang up to ask if I was vegetarian and to let me know the prawn crackers weren’t veggie and they added some extra wontons. Customer service is great here. And the food of course

Fantastic tasty food and still piping hot.

As always, outstanding food. Our Chinese of choice from now on.

The food from May Flower is so nice. The delivery driver is very polite and friendly. Highly recommend

Amazing service all the time, this is our go to Chinese and we will refuse to order from a different one. Everything we have is piping hot and fresh. Love it!

Spot on, everybody enjoyed their food.

Very good service and quality of food

Always a good meal from here :)

Honestly best Chinese Iv had ! Wish they delivered to Mansfield !!?

THE BEST CHINESE AROUND ALFRETON!! I will never order Chinese food anywhere else always outstanding, flavouring is beautiful, food is always piping hot. Always on time or even earlier and just amazing service in general, delivery driver is always very kind. Brilliant customer service! Thank you so much

Amazing as always. Our go to Chinese 🥰

10/10 Fantastic food. Beautiful flavours. Thank you. And a lovely delivery driver. Really happy and friendly. This is my go to Chinese now.

Brilliant meal as always. One of the best Chinese takeaways around. Great flavour to the sauces.

Great service, quick delivery. Will definitely be ordering again. Thankyou!!

Lovely freshly prepared food, hot when it arrived and they delivered way sooner than the suggested time. Will definitely order from them again.

Inhad special black bean, the pork was lovely but the beef and chicken was abit chewy, amazing delivery time though and all together good service

All dishes great, piping hot and not skimpy.

Slightly on the greasy side. Cantonese style sweet and sour chicken really nice with a tangy spicy sauce and large pieces of chicken. The rest of order average. Portions a decent size

Definitely use again top food and fresh

Having sampled Chinese takeaways in other parts of the country during a recent holiday, I can tell you that my local takeaway the Mayflower is one of the best. Very authentic flavours, good portions, reasonable prices and friendly staff. Never had a disappointing meal from them. Thoroughly recommend.

Absolutely amazing yet again! Lots of freebies too! Everything always tastes so fresh and very tasty! Thankyou May Flower!

Food ok not impressed with the spare ribs though not much meat on them.

Food was okay. Very very salty I couldn’t finish my meal but the meats and stuff were cooked lovely. Just way too much salt for my liking.

food great, Chloe is fit! boink..

Excellent food, service very good. Would definitely recommend & use again

Absolutely lovely and excellent service.

Lovely meal. Everyone enjoyed it.

Really great food! Came in a cardboard box which is better for the environment. Arrived quickly and would eat from here again 😁

The garlic and chilli chips tasted more like cinnamon than anything else

I am vegan so I specifically ordered the mixed vegetable vermicelli as I know from the listed ingredients that it doesn’t contain any animal products, however I found not only egg but MEAT in this dish 🤢 my partner ordered the Szechuan chicken which was heavily flavoured with star anise which ultimately ruined the dish, he probably ate about 3 mouthfuls. Never ordering from here again.

Great food yet again tasted lovely full of meat and veg and piping hot love this chinese

Always amazing food nobody else touches this place

Tasty food, generous servings, free items included.

The meal was very tasty, friendly delivery service .

Delicious food. Still hot when arrived. Freshly cooked. Friendly polite delivery lady. Definitely going to order from these again 👍🏼

Great food, hot and lots of it 👍👌
