Rainbow Chinese in South Lakeland

Just had an amazing meal food was very tasty can’t fault it one of the best meals we have had for a long time might have to squeeze another in before we go home

One of the best Chinese takeaways I’ve ever had! Piping hot, very flavoursome and big portions and friendly staff. Will definitely be back ☺️

Always great food never had to complain

The best take away place in Ulverston (not just Chinese) it’s not cheap but you def get what you pay for in terms of quality and portion size. Fast, friendly service. The crispy chilli beef is delicious and their prawn toast is the best I’ve had

Whilst away for New year we ordered takeaway for 4 adults. The food was delicious, hot and lots of it. The portions are huge and really tasty. Fast and efficient, friendly service. Definitely recommend, shame it's so far from home.

If your looking for a Chinese in Ulverston Ima this is my go to. Quality food.

It’s reputation for being the best Chinese in the town is well earned

Expensive and not particularly nice. Pancake rolls are nicer from Aldi. Cash only.

We had a very tasty Chinese takeaway from here. Very friendly and surprisingly fast. We really enjoyed our meal - thank you.

Absolutely fabulous find whilst staying in Ulverston . Best I've tasted in ages . Wish you were in our area .

Honestly best Chinese I have ever had. Portions were amazing! Food was incredible. Value for money 10/10

The Rainbow is the greatest Chinese in Town! Excellent food and efficient service.

Good food, but ready in literally no time. From phone call to table in 15 minutes!

Yet again excellent, sweet and sour chicken and chicken fried rice, chips, curry sauce is to die for :)

Best Chinese in Ulverston. The dishes always come out lighting fast and taste fresh. The prices are not super cheap but not expensive either. They don't accept cards so have some cash handy.

Friendly man through hatch serving. Had chicken chow mein. Quite wet with sauce compared to the normal dry chow mein I'm used to at home.

We only had a simple, shared takeaway, and although the spring rolls were decidedly on the thin side, the special chow mein more than made up for it. The noodles were perfectly cooked, the sauce was pleasant and not overpowering, and the chicken, beef, prawns etc were all generous in quantity. We would certainly eat from here again.

Good food. Very friendly service

I’m a Chinese fanatic and this is by far the second best Chinese I’ve ever had! (1st place coming from my home town and I can’t be a traitor…) 100% recommend!! Staff and food where amazing 🤩

Good food at great price. Good size portions. Happily use again next time we're in the area

We waited on it opening, the food was ready quick. Everyone who ate said food was lovely.

This used to be my go to take away. Always had amazing food from here but sadly if I could give it 0 stars I would. Last night I got a takeaway to treat myself and ended up with very bad food poisoning. I’m very disappointed, the food tasted a little different thank usual I should have taken that as a warning sign. Do better rainbow

Nice good stuff it's what a Chinese should look and taste like

Food was ready within 10mins and was really tasty. Best Chinese I've had in ages

Best Chinese in Ulverston (in my not so humble opinion).

Nice food and reasonable price, quick service and I would use them again for a takeaway

Most consistent takeaway in Ulverston. Brilliant, family-run business.

Best takeaway in town, food is flavoursome and unlike other places in area the food doesn't taste salty. Highly recommended 👌

We had an excellent takeaway from Rainbow. Good sized portions at a reasonable price and ready when they said it would be.

Excellent service, food was superb. Cash only.

Tried all other Chinese takeaways in ulverston, and this is by far the best , for quality and flavour , unfortunately they don't deliver but your phone orders are always ready in 10 to 15 mins to collect

Don't be put off by the rather ramshackle reception area. Really delicious tofu in black bean sauce. The menu for vegetarians is limited but there was no problem with doing us something to order. The rice crackers straight from the bag were very crispy and not oily like some can be. Will definitely return.

Speedy service. Delicious food!

Gotta be the nicest chinese takeaway I have had,full of flavour,only wish this place was in my own town,highly recommend it.

Not our usual choice. Sweet and sour balls a little dry.

Lovely food. Very friendly staff. The spare ribs are first rate.

Not keen on the curry sauce and the rice and onions undercooked

By far the best chinese I've ever had the food is really good for the price you pay its restaurant quality food

Best Chinese in the area by a mile 100 percent recommend

Have been going here for 30+ years, a dependable takeaway, roast duck Cantonese style, chicken & King prawn fried rice & a side of curry sauce, bbq spare ribs (dry), salt & pepper chips, special curry, any/all will fill your boots, enjoy

Food was really tasty and fresh. Great servings. Cash only payment.

Always a good takeaway meal from here

Food here is really tasty, price is slightly higher than other Chinese takeaways but there is a difference and its worth it

What do you do when theres no where to eat out because of Rishi’ generosity?? Have a take-away from the best Chinese ever! We even had to drive 6miles back to our hotel room and it was still Piping hot - thats how freshly it had been cooked - one word - Amazing! The rice was cooked to Perfection (takeaways at home ‘Prep’ rice in advance for the evening) the Beef was stunning as were the Fresh Prawns in the curry, Even the Prawncrackers were freshly cooked, the Meal for 2 was great value at £21 and we added a curry and chips - like I said, Amazing!

So nice the salt and pepper chicken was amazing and so was everything else especially the noodles!!!

Delicious food. Gorgeous salt & pepper chicken & sweet and sour chicken Cantonese style. Wished I lived closer to this takeaway!

Food was great service was quick

Family meal for 2 adults and 2 kids. We’ve tried all the Chinese Takeaways in the area, and this is the best we’ve had. They delivered within 40 mins Ona busy Saturday night and the food was warm and delivered by a friendly woman. The food was really clean And fresh and packed with meat. Really impressed and will use again.

Excellent food highly recommended

Best value for money Chinese in Ulverston. But awful at answering the phone

We had the set meal for 2 and a king prawn curry plus salt and pepper chips, Will definitely be going back again when we next have a takeaway in Ulverston. Really nice food.

Top notch chow mein lots off beef and veg .

Only a short wait for a take away, very good food and large portions.

Very tasty meal very good quality

The takeaway was bland and overly laden with onion, it would seem to pack it out with cheaper ingredient. The curry sauce is exactly the same with all of the curried dishes they do, because it's the curry you get if you buy it as a separate portion. In brief, it seems that they simply make a big pot of curry sauce and pour this over whatever curried takeaway you buy. It all seems a bit lazy and on the cheap. Even the salt and pepper chicken wings have gone to boneless supermarket type pieces. Disappointing to say the least. Staff are friendly but this doesn't make up for the lazy food.

The meals are excellent and well worth a visit

Beautiful meal. The best meal we have had out for a long time. Great value for money, lovely staff and service. Highly recommended.

Good takeaway after day out to the lakes and tired to go out for dinner Big portions Steaming hot vegetarian chinese food at a economical price Veg chow mein n vegetables in hot sauce were stand outs

Best salt and pepper ribs in the north

Best Chinese takeaway in Ulverston period. Its busy every night of the week for a reason!

This place is the best in town. Got the food quickly and it smells great. Thanks guys

Very polite staff. Fast hot food. Very tasty, I had curry and other half had chow mein and we really enjoyed it.

Very quick service , huge portions but all meals look and taste the same. Staff are expressionless. Closes too early too.

I have never had a long wait for my food and all food is fresh and hot

By far the best Chinese take away in Ulverston, the lovely people who own the Rainbow have never let us down , always tasty and fresh food plus friendly and polite service xx we don't go anywhere else for Chinese food , they are hard to beat

Large freshly made portions. Whether its starters or mains. Never a bad meal. Huge portions, spend "20 get free prawn crackers

Love this takeaway. We do without Chinese food when this place is closed.

With exception to the spring rolls, our takeaway was extremely disappointing compared to other takeaways in this area of Cumbria. Had a vegetable Chow Mein, a chicken meal and my family didn't really enjoy it, won't be going again

Consistent service and quality at reasonable prices. Not the easiest place to visit if driving as parking close by is difficult.

I think the title just about covers the review. Absolutely first rate.I note from review by Steve H that he thought the prices were a little high for what you get.Sorry can't endorse this negative. Where on earth does he usually eat. True to say, if it was good and enjoyable, it's not too expensive.Review by Blossom says disappointingly bland. Our group tried several dishes and found all to be delicious.This was the first time we tried this takeaway and we would certainly return if again in the area.

Alojarse en un sitio local la familia quería caravana para llevar una china, no estoy seguro de a donde ir, le pregunté a la chica en el local de Tesco, ella muy recomendado Rainbow.Fue todo un lujo, mi esposo aún está entusiasmado sobre las bolas de pollo. Toda la comida que había era sabrosa, colorida y no grasienta.

Todos los platos donde muy bonito, pensamos que los precios eran un poco elevados por lo que, comparado con otros para llevar chino promedio alrededor de £5: 60 € por pollo dulce y agria, el Rainbow cobraron £7. Volvería, pero no sobre una base regular debido al precio de €€€€€

I was disappointed, although the service and order fulfillment were fast and accurate, Rainbow just doesn't deliver the complexity or flavor. The fried rice was so bland and lifeless, there were no onions, egg, carrot, or sesame, just rice, peas, and chicken (boring). Plus they didn't have take-away soy sauce, hot mustard or duck sauce packets (IMO an epic fail for Chinese taka-away). Try the others even its more expensive.

Best Chinese in the town by far

Generalmente es nuestra elección de repetir para llevar. Tiempo de espera de orden nunca es normalmente más de 20 minutos, por lo que su abrigo lista cuando usted llama por teléfono para realizar su pedido.

Now they do sweet n sour chicken balls they get there 5th star, they substitute onions n peas for extra bean sprouts yum yum, there's just 1 last hurdle Salt n Pepper Chips my bruvs n mrs' fave......

This one is takeaway only as opposed to the Jade and Lotus and whilst one of four in the local area it is one that we primarily use for its consistency and value

Definately the best in town, great curry,

El Arco iris no es sólo la mejor comida china llevar en Ulverston, es probablemente la mejor comida china que llevar que he estado (y he probado unos cuantos! ). La sopa caliente y amarga y las costillas (nuestra orden invariable) son inmejorables y los platos principales son excelentes. Hay unas cuantas opciones picantes y los platos con salsa de Tailandia (especialmente los langostinos son deliciosos si te gusta un poco de picante. El servicio es extraordinariamente rápido, incluso los sábados muy concurrido. Los precios son muy razonables. El orden suficiente comida y usted puede conseguir algunos gambas galletas saladas tirado.

Love everything about this take away. Excellent food, great staff.Have to try other take aways when these shut but keep going back to the Rainbow. Keep up the good work.

Quick service but they do tend to be closed quite regular
