There was plenty of food which was served quick but the restaurant was so so cold. I put my coat back on. There was also a very strong smell of Calor Gas? Which put me off my food . I have since spoke to friends who went last week and they said the same. I don't think we will be going back until weather is much warmer.

I don't like to leave bad reviews but this was laughable. I should mention that we have had takeaway from here and the food itself is fine but eating in is a different story. We came in to a drunken couple who were making toasts to the room, in a freezing cold restaurant (we both put our coats on) and ordered. Our mistake, we should have left but the owners are nice. Starter came quickly, then we were asked what we wanted for mains - we ordered it with our starter. 40 minutes later we were told they didn't have our main order, so we re ordered and it came quickly, minus the rice. We started eating the main regardless and then the rice came out as we finished the main. Left quickly after this! We should have said at the time, or simply not continued after the starter. A shame. The owners are nice but never again.

Ordered takeaway at 5:30, no mention of wait times or it being busy. Rang back at 6:30 told it’s busy and as our order was large it would take some time. Told our order should be out in 30mins. At 8pm rang back as 2hrs 30mins for a delivery order is a joke. Told them we are not accepting the order or paying for it, 10 minutes later driver tried delivering the order to the wrong address, he rang me and I told him to take it back. We have eaten in the restaurant several times and have enjoyed it, but cannot recommend the delivery service.

Ordered a takeaway as I was celebrating my birthday with friends at home. That took 10mins as I was dealing with a trainee. Food arrived 50mins later. I paid and tipped the driver. Then discovered a meal was missing. Rang the restaurant and they said they would deliver it and knock if off the bill. Put everything into the oven until we had all the meals. 30mins later the driver came with the missing meal but no cash. He was told that we could have the meal or our money back, not both as was promised. Eventually got to eat our meal at 8.45 having put the order in ay 6.45. Birthday meal memorable for all the wrong reasons. Customer care zero points. Paddyfields, you need to do better.

Slightly tired interior requiring a good spring clean. Buffet @£23.50 per cover. Ordered off a buffet menu like a Meze stylee. Order what you want as often as you like. ( This 'ordering & waiting for every dish' method does draw out the eating experience so leave at least 2-3 hours for a meal). Good portions, well cooked , fresh food. Staff- under a bit of pressure. Not performing at their best on a Saturday night.

We are fussy Chinese take away critics and believe that the take aways these days are nothing like when we were growing up, where a meal included, fresh vegetables, proper non gloopy sauces, decent portions and fluffy rice. But we have to say, we have had 4 take aways from Paddy Fields in the last 6 months or so and each one has been spot on. Not ten out of ten but a good 8!! Nothing ever missed all tasty and decent portions. We would definitely recommend.

The place is dated, dead plants in the window along with very dusty decorations and lots of "stuff" around the bar could be off putting but luckily the "eat as much as you like" buffet is lovely and a good price at £23.50.

7.50 for delivery is absolutely ridiculous never ordering delivery again. When ever we go in the restaurant to eat the food is always ok but I think they don't have as high of standards for the food they send out unfortunately. We also had to wait for over a hour for the food that was quite disappointing.

Despite the bad reviews on here, we where recommended a meal out at Paddyfields. So we made a booking and was very happy we did. The staff where very friendly and the gentleman who served us was amazing. The portions where great, and the duck course is part of the price unless you have a second round. Far enough, there was more that enough food. We really enjoyed the whole meal, and couldn’t fault any of it. Just had enough room for a banana fritter and ice which I have a soft spot for and that was great too.

We decided to give this restaurant a try despite the two recent poor reviews and we are so glad we did! The staff were very welcoming and explained how the buffet menu worked. Starter platter was very tasty, as was the second starter duck and pancakes for which there was NOT an extra charge, unless you wanted extra portions, above the one per head. We had a selection of main courses, which were lovely. Throughout the meal the staff were very attentive and checked in to see if we would like to order any extra dishes. We live 40 minutes away but we will definitely come back.

AVOID This was our first visit and will be our last. No Lager or beer on draught its out of cans from the fridge at £3.50 a can!!! Mixed platter starter was ok after this the food was a disaster, bland no flavour and rubbish portions place was roasting hot, old stale rice on our table so hadn't been sanitised before we arrived properly. The buffet is massively massively over priced at £23.50 each plus if you want Duck its another £3.50 each extra.

Avoid at all costs!!! We were here for over 2 1/2 hours and still didn’t even make it to get most of our main course. Noodles arrived to the table 15 mins before any other main courses and arrived burnt, they were then cold by the time the tiny main course portions arrived and at that not everything arrived. We didn’t ever get the rice we ordered. Tried to order more food but gave up waiting As our children needed to be in bed and were tired. Tried to resolve the situation with the owners son, who should have started work early but only showed up at 8pm and then was extremely sexist towards me. Laughing at me then looking to my Dad and Fiancé, not wanting to engage in calm and factual conversation with me. I tried to explain that their poor service prevented us from being able to fully enjoy the meal and with us having 2 young children with us by 8.30pm after sitting down at 6pm it had gone well past an acceptable amount of time to enable us to complete our meal. He kept laughing and being extremely rude and patronising, talking over me. We offered to pay towards the bill but though due to us not being able to complete our meal it was unfair to ask us to pay full price. The owners son was extremely rude and clearly thought it was funny, slow timing us trying to resolve the issue, answering the phone, greeting people behind us etc. The poor lady waitress had being doing all she could to run round and serve everyone but on her own she was doing all she could and was very apologetic (she was very helpful and lovely). The owner lady was clearly very busy and disappeared into the kitchen once her son had arrived. There was another table in at the same time as us and they had the exact same problem. I completely understand some places can be busy resulting in a wait but the table was booked in advance and it appeared as if take aways were being prioritised. The food was inedible in some instances or fundamentals just completely missing e.g. rice. This was my birthday meal completely ruined. The owners son should be absolutely ashamed by the way he treated us, his mother’s business is clearly some sort of joke to him. Please please please do not waste your hard earned money on this place. I’ve never felt so disappointed and had such a rude, sexist experience in all my days. A birthday meal well and truly ruined.

All you can eat food for a Friday nights, what more could you want. Staying in the area for the weekend and wanted a Chinese. Slightly sceptical given the reviews, but no idea why, loved it all! Ordered a range of starters between two, great choice came quickly, decent portions, even got a decent amount of duck, could have maybe done with some more pancakes between us. Before we had finished our starters the waiter came and asked what mains we wanted, we decided on 2 main dishes and 2 sides, all came out piping hot and delicious. We had then more main courses, think it’s great you can order as many as you like and they come out within 5 minutes tasting fresh and hot. The service was good, always checking back and attentive to if we wanted anymore. Even topped it off with a little ice cream. All over great experience and would recommend!

Came recommended but was below average on taste. Really bad portions of meat both in size and quality; the dishes are basically just vegetables, even the beansprouts outnumbered the noodles in the chow mein. The fried rice was brown and had pork in which suggests to me they’re not cleaning between each order so high risk of allergy issues. Stomach has been making noises all night and my partner feels ill. Definitely avoid!

Edit on 21/04/22 - Last couple of orders the curry sauce has been spot on. Now raised to 5* It would be 5 star, however the curry sauce was more like a pea flavoured soup and I had to resort to making my own packet curry sauce. Portions are large and the delivery of the food is always piping hot. I will keep ordering on the off chance they will make their curry sauce....a curry flavour sauce.

Very disappointing food. Ordered on three seperate occasions hoping it was a one off bad experience however the food portions are tiny compared to other takeaways, the salt and pepper chips are clearly not fresh nor are they “salt and pepper” chips more like they’ve been left and reheated multiple times. Nothing tastes edible. Won’t be ordering again and would recommend to travel to somewhere else.

So I left it that night as I was annoyed, we didn’t receive the item that was missed off that night. When I ring for a take away again I find out i am now blacklisted & they won’t take my order, when it was there mistake in the first place. I never even mentioned there mistake this time. I apparently can’t order from there now & again put the phone down on me. Your loss paddy fields I always enjoyed your Chinese but I’ll happily go to China Town now.

Best Chinese takeaway in Ollerton. I tend to order a takeaway from here on a Monday night because that's when the food is at it's best. Whether it's because they have a different chef on a Monday night or just because they not that busy an got more time to prepare the food an not rush it, I don't know. But it always seems to be the takeaway is at it's best on a Monday evening. 😁

Just a bit of background. I used to live near clay cross, Chesterfield. I used to have takeaways from a chinese in clay cross from 2007 to 2012 When i told the owner i was moving to Edwinstowe, he told me his wife owned Paddyfields. So from 2012 i have mostly used Paddyfields for takeaway. I have never had any complaints about it. On the phone they are usually polite, delivery is swift, food is tasty and hot. However, tonight we ordered delivery and told it would be 30 to 60 minutes. Not a problem as we are in no rush. But 90 minutes later it still had not arrived so we rang up to find out when it would be delivered. The person who took the call was fine. But we asked how long would it be and we wanted to make sure the food wouldn't be cold. We could hear a woman in the background rudely saying 'do they want it or not'. We explained we did want it but we wanted to know how long it would be and if it would be hot. Eventually we were told it would be 15 minutes. Food arrived. Food hot and tasted excellent. But i would suggest improving communication with customers, especially those that have been supporting the business for many years.

We have been going to this place for years.. The food has always been brilliant and portions ample. But tonight was a big disappointment. The portions were small. The staff very slow serving. Food took a while even though the place was empty. But to top it off my daughter dropped by whilst we were there to give her brother a birthday card. We had finished eating but she pulled a chair up for a quick chat before heading back to her home after her work and had approx 3 chips off her dad's plate. The guy in the restaurant came over and said there would be a £10 charge for this. Horrified came to. Mind. By all means charge us if she ate loads of food but a few chips that were going to be thrown away.. Anyway this ruined the night for my sons birthday due to the attitude of the guy. Hence we won't be going there again even after all these years. Bearing in mind we always have a huge bill. The money wasn't charged to us in the end after i basically said Do what you have to put the money on my bill but we won't be returning.My family and I really enjoyed going here on most birthdays and family occasions but this is now ruined.

Im a regular at this restaurant but after Saturday night will be giving it a miss in future. Arrived at 5pm when the doors opened, 6.30pm we just had our starter, the salt and pepper ribs were ridiculously salty and inedible, both lots of ribs were gristle and fat and tasted awful we asked for additional satay and seaweed as portion sizes not great for a table of 5, half hour later had not received them, reminded the waitress again, the chickent that came out was dry and tough. Ordered second course, the lettuce came out and the sauce/onion and cucumber for the Duck (no spoon for the sauce) half hour later the meat joined it! Then the mains, by then we had lost the will to live, the prawn dishes contained 4 x prawns and we asked for mussels for two people, we got 3 x mussels?? work that one out, cut one in half? The food wasnt worth the wait it didnt taste nice. The restaurant wasnt busy and it appeared every table was having to wait. There didnt seem to be a manager around and waste of time complaining to the waitress as she didnt have great English. The whole experience took over three and a half hours, its a shame as usually the food is good and we were going back there this week for a family Birthday but after Saturday have decided to go elsewhere. Oh yes and the toilets are awful.

The worst experience I’ve ever had in a restaurant! If you like getting screamed at in Chinese in front of all the customers this is the place to go! Waited 2hrs for food, when food came out didn’t get what we ordered asked twice for the correct food and still didn’t get it! Gave up in the end and went onto the next course food was cold as were the starters! Asked to see a manager was told didn’t want to see me as they was too busy cleaning spoons! I told the waiter wasn’t good enough and wanted to see a manager ASAP as the service was terrible! I was told if I want to see a manager I would have to leave my food and find them myself! When confronted the bar staff he told myself he was the manager and told me that they was too busy and that’s the way it is and to deal with it and food will be ready when it comes out. The restaurant was empty only 6 tables was in! The restaurant had 4 tablets of 2 and 1 table of 4 and 1 table of 6 so not busy seeing as though there was at least 16 tables free! They told me they would let me pay for what I had eaten which came to £39.50 when the all you can eat buffet was only £19.95 each so that’s £39.90 for a couple! All I had to eat was 2 ribs 2 prawn toast 2 won tons and 2 chicken skewers, so this equates to the 40p off the full price when hadn’t even had a 1 main course! When I refused to pay the full price they gave me the diary for the night and told me this is why there slow cause they’ve been busy they told me that the 10 glasses they had on the bar proves how busy they are and have been! When I asked to speak to the actual manager cause I wasn’t paying the full price of the bill, I was told that the police would be called because I’ve got to pay for what I’ve eaten otherwise I’ll be arrested (Amazing customer service) When the manager came out I was trying to discuss my complaint and the staff was laughing about the whole situation and speaking in Chinese to each other when the manager did speak she was shouting at me demanding payment. I asked her to stop shouting and talking to me like that and she refused and kept getting irate! This was in front of the whole restaurant. The manger told me that she would sort me a deal out and we wouldn’t pay the full amount after the altercation for 20mins and told me we could go if we paid £40 when what we had ordered didn’t even add up to £40 but £39.90 if we had had the full courses which we didn’t, so basically they was trying to over charge me at the end of it all! If all this company cares about is money over loyalty over a customer then there morals are wrong because they won’t get any more custom from me so they've lost out in the long run! As a long term customer I can honestly say I will never eat in that establishment or order a takeaway ever again! Vile customer service and cold food. So if you want to get over charged and shouted and screamed at in Chinese and willing to wait over 2hrs for food fill your boots but you might want to take a microwave with you to warm your food up.

I have been here in the past and enjoyed my meal however I was wanting to come tonight with a friend and bring along by fussy eating 2 year old. I called ahead to check how much he would be as the prices stand at £19.95 per person but he wouldn't eat anywhere near as much as an adult or older child. The man who I spoke with said "well it is at our decresion if we lower the price when we see how big he is"... Giving me no straight answer even after explaining he is 2 and would just pick eat. My friend then called and asked for further explanation on this and after the lady told her we couldn't have a table anyway because they were fully booked when my friend asked for an explanation on the child's price the lady then hung up the phone. Disgusting service.

The place had no atmosphere to say they struggled to get us a table the place read dead. The food was delicious mind the service was slow but it was New Year’s Eve. I was shocked that the price was the same considering it was New Year’s Eve good to see places going this. We was kicked out at 11:55pm which was quite frustrating considering we wanted to celebrate New Years together warm.

Food was tasteless, fatty and overall rubbish. Curry was so processed it congealed before we had finished eating. The rice was so old it was stuck together and so dry. The chicken chowmein didn’t have any noodles and was tasteless. The atmosphere was dead and the whole place was tired. Having just moved here and regular diners out they have lost out on our custom.

Visited last night for birthday meal. Glad we booked as place was really busy. They also do take away service. All you can eat buffet is excellent value for money. The food is delicious and you can re-order as much as you like. The place is very clean and the decor is nice too. There's parking outside the restaurant or on the road close by. Service is really good here and is a favourite place of ours to visit. Would definitely recommend

As Paddyfields is local we use it for special occasions or the odd take away. We went as group of 6 on Christmas Eve and enjoyed our evening, the restaurant was full which enabled us to have a bit of rest between courses as sometimes they are a bit too quick and you feel rushed. The food was great but the portion sizes have reduced however the waiters happy to bring more if requested. We had to keep asking for additional lettuce to have with our wraps as only a few bits bought out each time and there was 6 of us. I do think Paddyfields is overpriced now (every time we go there seems to be another £1 added to the set meal price) and the drinks are expensive, the restaurant could do with a bit of updating and the toilets are particularly bad. The staff and food are good though and we will continue to go.

The chicken is rubbery as with most takeaways nowadays but there is a good range of dishes to suit most pallets. Delivery time is long so best off picking it up!

I placed an order for delivery which arrived in 20 minutes which is a bit strange. Obviously nothing was freshly cooked as there just wasn’t enough time between ordering and arrival. Everything that was fried like the prawn toasts and spring rolls were quite greasy and the meal lacked a little flavour. Prawn crackers were also a little stale too. Sometimes you get a good meal sometimes you don’t, much better to go in and eat.
