Noodle Bar in Coventry

five starred this place . Editing my review The new place has been so difficult May be the rush of more people coming in I ordered the duck roast / char siu plate and it was not hot I told them that , they took it away and I did see them put in the microwave, well it was still the same ! tasted average the dumplings were nice ! but it's so disappointing and the old place was better , never going there often again

New location but food still the best as ever!

New location has opened @ 15 High St - CV1. Glad they've reopened, however they have reduced the menu items. Hopefully once they have a full team of staff they'll resume the old full menu item. 😉

Such a shame, drive all the way here and it’s close, but google map said open. Didn’t see signs if it’s permanent close or temporary

Compared to previous visits, the food was a bit disappointing. It seems that as the prices have gone up, the portion sizes have shrunk, and the quality of the fish and prawns has noticeably declined.

The atmosphere was lovely, with great music, and best of all, the Chinese food was both authentic and affordable. The portion size for the big bowl was impressive, and the taste did not disappoint. The staff were friendly, and I’m already looking forward to returning!

Been going here for more than 20 years Still say one of the best places to eat in Coventry

GET THE ROAST DUCK. It’s great. Dim sum probably frozen, so avoid that

I would live here if possible, truly the greatest place on earth

Fantastic food and incredible value for money.

Great food, classic retro decor

The best noodles in all of Coventry. Ambience is a tad lacking but cosy. Service was alright.

My friends and I could not believes what we have experienced.... A Chinese guy who served us was so rude and fierce . I brought 2 friends to try out the food . Food was ok but the service we have received were scary . We all felt frightened by this front of house guy who served us . Plus he was not friendly to his staffs at all . We were all wondering if he was hired from a mafia ..... He is definitely not the right guy for the job . I am very surprised that anyone would like to be working under or with him ...... Never recommend anyone and definitely will never be going back again .

A very authentic-tasting dim sum place, as a gal from Hong Kong. Missing the cuisine from back home, this really hit the spot. I ordered the classic dim sum options, har gao (shrimp dumpling), siu mai (pork and prawn dumpling), soup dumpling (xiu loong bao), some egg fried rice and a beef noodle dish. I went there with my friend and all the dishes were great, tasted good, took a reasonable amount of time to come out. It was my second time there, but my friends first, and it left a great impression on her too. Would highly recommend and this place is definitely my go to!

Me and a colleague of mine work nearby and go to Noodle Bar around 2 - 3 times per week. The food is absolutely delicious, portion sizes are big and the waiters are very nice. My favourite meal is the big bowl meal, Beef Brisket with Red Chilli Vegetables with fine noodles in soup. My colleague often goes for Mapo Tofu or the Triple Roast.

Been coming here for well over 10 years. Can't stay away. Best in the city.....

Decent food and plenty of it. Fast service and good prices too.

Very nice noodle bar at a reasonable price.

We love the food here. It is so delicious and tasty. 🙂😊

My fave chinese restaurant, the food is absolutely delicious with generous portions, I always go for the big bowl which is the best. The service is no-nonsense you just go in, have a quick look at the menu, order and the food comes quick. It's on my regular rotation of restaurants it's just so good.

I love going here always great staff food always comes quick and very hot I love the big bowl menu

Best Cantonese restaurant in Coventry with home foods and the prices are great and full of east people so you know it's good.

Disappointing. Food flavourless and brought out to the 3 of us separately. Chinese tea tasted of nothing (needed more than 1 tea bag). For the price, we've had much nicer food in Coventry. A shame because it uses to be a reliable and good value place. I wouldn't go again.

Just had the worse Chinese in my life. No taste to any of the dishes, absolutely shocking. Small portions, chicken dish £12 came with box full of Boiled noodle and 5 pieces of chicken tastless. Ordered at 20:00 and they close at 21:00 but is no excuse to send food like this out!! Mix veg Boiled no salt no seasoning no nothing, hospital food. All dishes just Boiled basically and no it's not about of their way of cooking because I had food from here before and was ok for a takeaway. Paid £54 and all went in the bin. I will order a indian now because I ve Benn working all day and I am starving!! What a joke. Never ever order from here or even eat in there, just robbing peoples money on Boiled noodles.

In my case, the classic question "where do you want to eat" is normally answered with "let's go to the Noodle Bar".

Big bowls of flavoursome Chinese food at a good price; arriving within ten minutes of ordering.

Very nice food, friendly and attentive staff, can recommend the beef brisket in black bean sauce with green pepper it was very tasty, my friends were also impressed with their food.

Decent food, decent prices, not as cheap as they were

Food is always good and portion sizes are fantastic. Service is quick and efficient. Definitely think it's one of the best, if not the best Chinese restaurant in Coventry. Salt and pepper chicken is fantastic.

I love this place usually but went for a meal and ended up with food poisoning from seafood curry

Such a shame to rate 1 star. We are regulars to this place but this evening, I ordered tempura fish and noodles for delivery. It was completely off- if I had eaten it I would have been extremely poorly. I don't know how they could have cooked it without realising it was off. Awful.

Service was very quick and efficient, the big bowl noodles were exactly that, and hot. A gentle buzz from other diners helped create some atmosphere. Left there absolutely stuffed.

Very lovely food hidden gem of a place went for the first time with a friend and it was lovely good portions and good service everything was all good will be visiting again for sure!

This place has one of my absolute favourite dishes. I go often with different family members. I eat in many different restaurants, from cheaper to Michelin starred. The staff are friendly, and provide take out boxes if you can't manage the whole meal (which I frequently can't).

Food below average. Order was wrong, although the waitress repeated it back to us. Pricy and bland. Cheap interior, poorly atmosphere. Save yourself, walk 3 more minutes, get brilliant service and atmosphere, delicious food, for same money or less. Plenty options from competition, brand names included. Would avoid.

Great, filling food for a really good price. Loads of options.

Not good. There was a clear language barrier and they dont really seem to be prepared for sit ins. Cash only whilst not illegal is a fair indication of the nature of this business. My chicken curry seemed to come from a tin and the 2 other family members were not impressed. Cheap tho. I would avoid I doubt the owners will mind.

Delicious food and reasonably priced. We had chicken, Chinese vegetables and noodle soup 🍲.

I've been coming to Noodle bar for over 8 years, easily one of the best Chinese food in the world. The service has improved greatly over the years too which is fantastic. Noodle bar is positioned upstairs in the center of Coventry, I always get sweet and sour chicken and egg fried rice. Worth visiting!

Always a great meal and good value for money

Delicious 5 stars **** as usual This is my treat when I come to Coventry. Highly recommended Try the tofu with kingpo sauce and ho fun noodles Yummy 😋

I have been going to Noodle Bar for nearly 20 years, and it still maintains the exceptionally high standards of traditional chinese cuisine for reasonable prices.

Great food and alot of it! The big bowl meal is where its at choose from met vege and base be it noodle or rice.

We were in the area and decided to try this place. The takeaway part is on the ground floor entrance and the restaurant area is upstairs. We were shown to a table straight away, the place was quite quiet. We ordered drinks and food. I had the 'Sunlik' beer which was nice. For food I had the sweet and sour chicken, this was good but not the best I have had. Overall the staff seemed friendly, the food was ok, place seemed relatively clean. Location is quite good.

Just ordered a house special...curried mushroom and vermicelli noodles-Soggy noodles...tastless...no seasoning ... disappointingly dull after a friend recommended us to you...sorry but not worth the money...misses had chicken satay and she wasn't impressed either...again tasteless-Like a soup rather then a main course meal. Dim sum starter-Dont want to be disrespectful but shocking guys-Watered down sweet chilli sauce...come on !! We ordered takeaway-£33

Unassuming venue but great food. Love the big bowls where you pick a meat, rice/noodle, sauce etc.

We went there after my brother's graduation. Tried a few dishes and not bad. The day was so hot, the staff were also nice and considerate.

I’ve tried a few of the noodle soups here, they’re all very tasty! Good sitting area and the staff are all lovely and attentive.

I usually order delivery, but when I HAVE eaten in it has been a friendly place with cheerful and helpful staff. Delicious and plentiful food too, with plenty to choose from and my gluten-free husband is easily catered for.

A Lot Of Different Menu Choices At Reasonable Prices. Great Service And Food.

Nice atmosphere, nice music, and above all, affordable, legit Chinese food. The portion size for the big bowl is no joke, and the taste is great. Nice staff too...can't wait to be back!

Been eating hear well over a decade. Always the best place to eat out with friends and solo. The menu is good and cater well for vegans. The chefs can make amendments to all dishes. Good seating and service always. My go to place on a frequent basis.

Very delicious food, well prepared, and the service was excellent.

Love this place, always come here with my family, food is great and the atmosphere is lovely, the members off staff are absolutely amazing Elaine & Kaffy, they are soft spoken and always go out there way for you to ensure you are comfortable and always make you feel welcomed. 🙏🏽🍜🍛

Few good chinese food in city centre that do roast

Food is okay, and female boss is kind and helpful. HOWEVER , I cannot believe a waiter is always RACIST with Asian ppl( weird right? he is Asain waiter and look down on asain ppl,) I don’t know WHY!! I have been there 3 times, but 2 times encounter that guy who is like I own him money and get very arrogant and disrespectful attitude !! BUT WITH other non-asain customer he is smiling with joy , I notice that guy do this to other asain ppl as well, AVOID!!!

Best noodle house I know. Spacious and a good bowl of delicious noodles, meat and sauce. Gets very busy as popular

Great place with delicious food. Big bowl meal deal is the best .

For years I come here and have the best food in town. The place is always very clean and food is delicious. Thank you guys for doing such a great job

Food excellent, staff professional, service very good,

What a hidden gem! Have been recommended this place for a while, but it's so unassuming when you walk past, that we never dared to walk in until now. Service is very quick and the atmosphere and food as authentic as could be. They have a vast variety of dishes to choose from.

Ordered for takeout like i usually do. I’ve never had a problem ever. I have been one of your loyal customers for years. But after today, will never go back to you guys ever again. I recieved one wrong item from my order, so decided to ring up to let them know, to then be told that i have to wait 15-20 minutes for a remake which was fine. Was called again by the same staff member to then be told that i have to give the wrong item that was sent to me back to the driver, which i said was fine. Asked to speak to the manager and the manager seemed to refuse to speak to me, making it seem like they wanted the staff member to sort out the problem because apparently it was his fault. As a manager of another establishment in town this is very poor customer service, making your staff member speak to the customer instead of your management, it sounded like this staff member was being bullied to be honest, he honestly sounded so uncomfortable to speak to me on the phone. I asked to speak to the manager again and he said one moment, for him to then hung up on me which im assuming the manager told him to do so. I was then told that they are unable to make the dish at all, so i replied to ask for a full refund and i also said i would return all the items to the driver, to then be told no. Why should i wait 30 more minutes for one dish when the rest of my dishes are going cold without any compensation whatsoevet for this inconvinence. We were trying to celebrate a birthday and you have ruined it. Is it a new management? New staff? If so they need retraining. I am appalled the way this situation was handled. Never will i ever be your customer again. Very very disappointing as i was a very loyal customer.

Honestly the best food you'll ever have!

When you going to noodle bar the food is fantastic but unfortunately when you order take away the food they delivery is very poor and bad . I ordered few times take away and always find something bad . Last time I had duck with noodles and noodles was not even cooked 🙄

Amazing noodles 🍜 especially curry with udon!

The attitude towards local people and Chinese people is completely different. I have been there many times, especially on the second floor, where a male waiter is very friendly towards local people and says goodbye when they leave; however, he basically ignores Chinese people. Ironically, he himself is also Chinese... What a shame.

I had a terrible experience at Noodle Bar. The waiter's attitude was extremely rude and unhelpful. and I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a pleasant dining experience

Yummy yummy noodle goodness! 😊🙃😉

The pork rice with plums and vegetables is of a good standard, a must-eat

Friendly staff, fast service, some of the best Chinese food in Coventry

Very nice, cosy spot, good food and prices

We were having high hopes. We had a large take out order for 6 of us. Nothing really stood out as all quite bland. All the main dishes came with rice or noodles in the same dish, which absorbed all of the sauce. The quantity of meat in the dishes was low. Dim Sum was good, and the triple roast was the saving grace. I don't think I will be making a specific trip back there again.

From the first bite to the last amazing definitely a regular customer now

Have been coming here for years - char siu pork is spot on.

It's a shame that they've increased in price but dropped in quality!!

My mixed vegetables and duck soup with udon was fantastic! Nothing else to say!

Compared to other visits the food could’ve been better. I feel since the prices have increased the portions have decreased with the fish and prawns becoming low in quality.

Good food, excellent service. Their noodle bowls will satisfy any appetite. Can be a little slow when they're very busy, but the staff are helpful and friendly.

Excellent noodles with eggplant and tofu. Price £10.80

Ordered a whole roast duck and belly pork, what a mistake!!!!!!!!!!! the duck was just full of off-cuts with lots of bones and not a lot of meat, as if they kept most of the breast meat and gave us the bony parts of ducks that they had to make up the order. it definitely came from 2 different ducks or more as the neck sections were different colours and sizes, what also gave it away was how they gave me two halves of the head but the same side of a ducks face!!!! The belly pork, wow, the portion size is did not even fill half of a medium size takeaway container, feel totally scammed, well never order/come to this restaurant again, please check your orders before leaving, you may not get what you've ordered.

Great little place. Recommended to us & really is worth a visit. Food lovely

Nice food and service but still non recyclable containers used for example for the crispy noodles.

Ordered the curry beef brisket, it was amazing so flavourful I could’ve eaten another one!!

Tastes great, big portions, quick service! My favourite place in the city centre!

It’s was absolutely amazing. Mouth watering, packed with flavour. It’s just a dream to eat. My order is szechwan with vegetables, king prawns and I get that with udon noodles alongside with steamed king prawn dumplings.

Bit cold, bit overpriced, but the food was delicious and service was great. Jasmine tea is a type of cold bubble tea not Jasmine flower tea as I thought.

Good char siu(barbecue pork), roster pork and roster duck. Also the spice oil is good. Dishes come with good quantity of char siu and other roster food. Advice to have the three roster rice, really tasty and good meal.

I ordered Shanghai Xiu Loong steamed buns for £4.80. I only got 4 very small (~4 cm diameter) buns. They tasted okay, but I felt it was too little for the price.

The ambience was really nice and cosy The food was really amazing A must try place

Very generous dishes. Meals on site (upstairs) or to take away

Great food. Always. Asahi goes down well too. Always tastes decent and the service is always prompt. Awesome spot.

Excellent food and the big meal bowl is the best option to try

Great HK milk tea, only £2.50 for a pint. Crispy belly pork was good, char siu above average but unfortunately the duck was a let down (dry and lacked flavour). Fast, efficient service. Prices are good.

Everything about this place is amazing.

Excellent Chinese food, probably the best Chinese restaurant I’ve been to. The Chinese food was amazing, the Shanghai noodles are great. The big bowl offer was good value for money. The portions are great.

Food still as delicious as ever but I do feel portions size is slightly on the smaller size and for the price I'd at least expect to fill full. I used to come here every week but now it's a rare occasion simply because of the price

The bowl of food that fill your tummy and your soul.

Great food and excellent service, very helpful staff

Been a number of times now and never disappointed. Quality food, exceptional value for money. Highly recommend.

Only Takeaway Ordered :- Lemon Chicken and Chicken Fried Rice Lemon Chicken :- 1/10 Chicken Fried Rice : 3/10 Service :- 8/10 Cleanliness:- 8/10 Ambience:- 2/10 Note : They have only takeaway. Payment mode is pathetic. They only take cash.
