Porth Palace exceeded all expectations! From the moment we stepped in, we were treated like royalty. The attention to detail in every aspect, from the decor to the menu selection, was impeccable. A truly memorable dining experience that I would highly recommend to anyone seeking a culinary delight.

Ordered food tonight. Tasted fresh and piping hot. Porth palace never fails to satisfy my hunger. Been ordering here since I was in school (2012) roughly 😅 I know new owners take over for nearly 2 years and I can honestly say everything still lives up to standards. Fast delivery, the gentleman behind the counter was polite and gave me many options to the meals I wanted. If I have any special requests more sauce more veg ect they will add it on. Brilliant service brilliant establishment. Cannot complain I recommend salt and pepper chicken. Special omelette and chips (fresh cut real chips not frozen) My favourite is the gravy sauce😛.

Ever since this takeaway has changed owners, I’ve had nothing but bad experiences with them. First of all, when the new owners had taken over the establishment we ordered a takeaway from them and when we ordered, they said it would take at most one hour. Come two and a half hours later we still hadn’t received our food. We then called Porth Palace and they told us it had left. Thirty minutes later the food finally arrived but lo and behold it was the complete wrong order. After phoning the takeaway, they said to come down and they would give the correct food (which is fair enough). Upon getting there, as soon as we entered the young man behind the counter was nothing short of obscenely rude to us, saying that it was not their fault that our order was wrong. At this point I was gobsmacked at his language and just decided to leave without and food. Cut to tonight where I had family from England coming down so we decided to order some food and they decided to try Porth Palace. I thought maybe they would have gotten better since the last few months and I decided to give it a go again. How much I regret doing so. We ordered about £26 worth of food and their menu stated that orders over £20 would come with free prawn crackers. So when the food came and we had no prawn crackers, I went on the phone to say they forgot our prawn crackers. What could be described as an onslaught of insults and vulgarities came spewing from the person on the phone. When I asked about the prawn crackers the person said that they do not give free prawn crackers. Then I asked why it was on their menu then they said that if I could read the menu I would see. Absolutely disgusting behaviour from them. A 40+ year successful business ruined by people who don’t know how to handle customers. I won’t ever be ordering from here again neither will my friends or family.

Ordered food for collection was told to collect in 20 minutes. My husband was first handed someone else's food before staff realised it was the wrong order. 45 minutes after initially ordering we were told our food was ready after my husband queried how long the food would be but they had forgotten to add a dish, we were informed that they would make that dish straight away and keep our food hot. 20 minutes later after asking a different staff member about the dish we were informed further that said dish had not been started and we would have to wait longer. Suffice to say after more than 60 minutes of waiting in the shop my husband requested a refund and left without the food. Ended up having a Chinese takeaway a few miles up the road from Golden house with no issues at all.

Having eaten here twice successfully, we thought we were on our way to having a new favourite local Chinese takeaway. Spent 45 minutes stood around waiting for my food only to be told they'd neglected to put noodles on my order. After speaking to the girl at the counter, and being told the noodles were coming, a further 20 minutes went by with no noodles. After speaking to another person at front of house, I'm then told the noodles weren't being made and that he'd have to put it through on the system. That'll be yet another wait. Suffice to say, asked for my money back, and won't be making the mistake of ordering from here again. Food's nice, but clearly unable to take or fulfil orders with any accuracy. Never mind. Back to Golden House for us.

For years and years only had Chinese from here especially loved the special gravy sauce haven't had one for a few months, there must be new owners because yuck! Watery tastless gravy, reheated solid cheap chips, beef chowmein tasteless, portion sizes halfed (not that it mattered as half was thrown out) spent over £40 even the prawn crackers was the rubbish bought stuff rather than made at the shop like before. Won't be ordering from there again

This is my local Chinese take away...and I am very happy. Very good and fresh quality, plenty of it. I love the crispy chicken, the best actually I have had in Porth area. The lovely lady always has a smile and she already knows what I want.... Jason Special. It is very popular in Porth .very busy on Saturdays though so I waited a bit long to get it. Salt and pepper chips are so delicious.

Been enjoying Porth Palace gravy for over 20 years. New owners take on a successful business and serves watery rubbish on cheap horrible chips. If it ain't broke don't fix it. Won't be going back in a hurry.

Wasted £35 on a horrible take away. Every dish reheated or over cooked. Rice mushy, chicken satay overcooked, chips reheated and like rubber. Sweet and sour sauce, yuk! Beef chow mein was plain chow mein. First and last time I'll eat from there. Most of it went in the bin, AVOID.

That's certainly going to change. Porth palace is definitely my go to Chinese takeaway from now on. Food was stunning! Best I've had in a very long time! 5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ from our house!

Been ordering here for about a 18 months as it's one of the only places that offer vegan options around here. My complaint isn't with quality of food itself but the consistant messing up of orders. Wrong sizes, sending meat when ordering vegan options. I know places make mistakes but it's has now become a problem everytime I order, and now they're saying "oh we'll give you extra next time" sorry there won't be a next time.

Hit or miss. Sometimes food is super greasy. It depends on the day like when the council go out to do there food hygeine rating. One day it could be filthy with rats running around then the next day may be there monthly cleaning day in the kitchen so it'll be super clean. It would be best to ask before you order when they last replaced the oil in there fryers. This will give you an idea of when they last cleaned and how good the food is going to taste. There are good parking facilities and prices are average for a Chinese meal. Best of luck with your visit.

Called here this morning for a quick coffee break whilst out walking (keeping our steps up) and just wanted to say we were served by the most lovely young man, I didn’t take his name but he was very tall with brown hair and a beard, he was really kind and so I wanted to leave a positive post for him, he deserves some recognition for being so helpful and pleasant.

We have visited this Costa on a number of occasions and have always enjoyed our hot drinks. We usually visit mid-afternoon on a weekday. There are usually plenty of parking spaces available outside, including a couple of dedicated disabled bays near the entrance. The coffee shop itself has usually been fairly quiet when we visit - possibly due to the time of day. Although inside has usually been quiet, the drive thru has usually been fairly busy. The prices are comparable with other similar coffee shops and the drinks were made fairly quickly and tasted delicious. Sometimes there is a bit of a wait to get served at the till. The staff are usually very friendly and apologise for any wait. We tend to order our usual decaf cappuccino and hot chocolate and have always been very happy with our drinks. Unlike some of the other chains, Costa doesn't charge extra for decaf coffee.

Omg....we had a meal here last week and it put me off going for an Indian for a long time. The chicken in the kebab starter felt slimy and awful. The chicken tikka massala main was even worse what with the sauce feeling and looking just like a tomatoe soup. The chicken in this was worse again. My partner had the same main and had to leave the chicken. It was disgusting and we'll never go there again. In fairness, my partner has been there many times whereas it was my first time, though my last and the same for her to. We both got back home and thought we were going to be sick. They must use the cheapest chicken they can buy. Gives me the shivers just writing this review.
