Rainbow House in West Oxfordshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

First time for me there, wife placed the order over the phone so when I arrived for collection the Takeaway was ready when they said it would be and when I got home each portion was good size. Very tasty food,

The gentleman who served us was very sweet and patient, explaining the dishes to us. The food was piping hot and absolutely delicious. Excellent food and service. Please note cash only accepted.

Great cheap food. Fun family meal altogether enjoyed buying from this takeaway

Best Chinese around. Kong po is amazing!

The food taste so good, we love the beef noodles. The staff are always polite.

Somehow managed to mess up our order of 5 items and gave us chips instead of chow mein

Taste nice and fresh and the owner was nice. Could do with more chicken as it was mostly vegetables but other than that all good

Large portion so more expensive than it was when Yip was there. Didn't really need to increase size, as they are enough for 2 people now but I don't like what my husband has.

best chinese i’ve had by far. lovely staff

Not a recommended takeaway. Very disappointed with the food. The owners grandson is a bad influence. He got sacked when he worked for Argos. 😂

This was the first time we have been, I was impressed with how fast our order was made. When we got home and started to eat, I was surprised with the quality of the food and the size (garlic and chilli dri-fried prawns) of one of the portions. Why have I not been there before now!!!!.

The use of processed meat placed on top of the carton thick soggy batter on poorly prepared prawns and a counter person that does not listen to the order properly.Such a shame as this takeaway was excellent quality a few years ago. Not surprised that you get served straight away now before you had to wait ages.

Gave it a second go after awful food when they opened, wanted to give the benefit of the doubt because we are local. Well second time around was no better. The food is just awful. Ordered squid and satay chicken. The squid was just like dried up old rubber, salt and pepper seasoning was weak, just a load of garlic with normal peppers, no chilli. The satay chicken was not satay chicken at all, it had no peanut taste whatsoever, just chicken in gravy with some onions and peppers. Poor quality food with no taste at all.

Decent Chinese, was pleasantly impressed.

Good quality, both ingredients and flavour. Friendly service. Cooked quickly. Cash only (last time I went).

Food was good but had to wait almost an hour longer when I went to collect my order having been told it would be ready in 40 minutes. I think this was because it was New Year's Eve but sitting waiting for so long was unacceptable.

Always fresh, hot and nice food! Very friendly service and lots to choose from menu :) Shame that they don’t have deliveries, but it’s still worth to collect food as it’s really tasty :)

Best Chinese meal I've had in ages and good price!

Great take away with good friendly service

We've just had our first takeaway from here and wow we were very impressed. From the lovely friendly gentleman who took our order to the actual meal itself. Highly recommend. Everything was flavoursome and as you'd want it. Nice and crispy, prawn crackers, spring rolls and banana fritters. Main meals were very yummy. Will definitely order from here again! 5* The only thing I'd change is the ability to pay by card rather than cash as we try not to handle cash or keep it in the house.

Visited today and the food and service was excellent. Would definitely eat from there again. Excellent quality

3rd time I have had a poor meal from here..(will not risk another)..under new management ??.....this used to be the best Chinese Takeaway locally...always were good value & good quality....really gone downhill, even my cat turned his nose up at the left overs. What a shame

Very friendly staff and fast service Chinese takeaway, freshly cooked food, closed on Tuesdays

Stopped by this place on a whim, such a great find. The staff were lovely, funny and helpful. The food was delicious. Definitely recommend. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Very good food at a reasonable price. Good range.

After changing hands the staff have continued the excellent quality of the previous owners and even added new items to the menu, I would drive the 14 miles to recieve such quality any day!!

Fantastic first meal from the newly owned Rainbow House .To be fair anyone would have a tough act to follow following after Yip and his many years of service providing Eynsham and beyond with wonderful Chinese cuisine . We were pleasantly surprised by the great service and speed in which our order was taken and ready for pick up . The dishes were fantastic and we will definitely return for more . Good luck to the new owners and staff .

Me and my partner went to rainbow house for take away tonight what lovely polite people and the food was absolutely stunning house special chow mein melted in you're mouth meat veg and noodles were so tasty veggie mini spring rolls taste even home made were done fresh not even dry like before with last people even the chips were lovely and fresh I had sweet and sour hong Kong style the battered chicken was so soft and lovely and fresh we got home and our food was red hot when we put it on our plates absolutely lovely for anyone in the village pay a visit its well worth every penny

As it under new ownership, the service you get from this take away is the best in town. Food is very nice, proper Cantonese chef and Cantonese taste. As a Chinese myself, I', highly recommended.

They only take cash. In a pandemic! Incredibly arrogant person serving. If he is the owner, then he should really rethink how he behaves to customers as he is likely to lose them.

The best Chinese takeaway ever.

I have been going to Rainbow house for over 20 years and they have never disappointed. Clean and hygiene 5 star, always friendly, and the food tastes great. Those that say its awful is doing a dis service. The food itself is good, it may be not to your taste everyone has different tastes but the food itself is good and always hot. I would recommend this as the best place within 20 miles.

We always have a lovely meal from the rainbow house. You always get a cheerful welcome and the food is faultless. Best around

Isnt hard to see why this place has been opened for so long in a small village. Been coming for years, never had an issue with food. Sometimes hard to get through on the phone at weekend. Glad it's finally reopened.

Asked for a chilli beef chow Mein was dry and well not very nice chi’s very dry and salty when I ordered the food they looked at me as if I was asking for something strange so I’m guessing they don’t know what a chilli beef chow Mein is go to witney and get it from cogs a better food altogether very disappointed

Great food, best takeaway west of Oxford, but sometimes there are long queues and waits due to the takeaway being very popular.

Gone here for 11 years and never have I had a bad meal. Love the family run business! And the food is to die for, always hot always fresh always home made. Would highly highly suggest their chicken noodle soup! Beautiful.

Excellent reputation for well cooked takeaway food.

Having used Rainbow House for 16 years now we are never disappointed, we regularly make a 12 mile trip to pick up our favourite takeaway.

Most disgusting over priced Chinese I ever had I ordered chicken balls they weren’t completely burnt and dry Chicken chow mien no flavour and noodles were chopped up don’t ask me why?? They need to sort themselves out charging customers for burnt food

Was recommended by my partners dad. As he used to live near enysham and said it was the best Chinese food he’s had. So as we have moved we thought we would try it and wish we hadn’t. It was awful. All the dishes order were nearly inedible. The meat was extremely overcooked and dry. Hardly no sauce on the special chow mien. The chicken balls were burnt and all round unpleasant. Would not recommend at all. What a waste of money.

So happy they are open hurrah 🤩

RH is really good, freshly cooked and reasonably priced and produced at a great rate of knots, nice staff as well.

Chinese Popular for miles arround, TUESDAY'S is closed all day. it's entirely a Take Away. Rob NOW CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE, on Wed 12th Feb. Due to Unforeseen circumstances

one of the worst Chinese take aways I have ever been to. We ordered for 6 and none of the meals were edible. Chicken balls looked like that had been cooked several times, chicken and beef pieces tasted like rubber, and noodles were like elastic bands. Will never be going here again. I highly recommend that you stay away.

I have been going to this Chinese for over 30 years it’s absolutely the best. very fresh, quality is excellent. You will not be disappointed.

Excellent food at reasonable prices You will have to be patient as very popular but worth the wait Same family since it opened in the 1980s

Best Chinese take away I've been to. Top quality food, all cooked freshly and quickly and at reasonable prices.

Me and my mate bought from there we bought a chicken chowmain and a beef one the noodles where like elastic bands and the beef tasted like burnt rubber and the chicken balls tasted stale 😂

Simple... The best food, so tasty.

We haven’t used The Rainbow House for along time but as our usual restaurant was closed we decided to give it a go. Well, what a terrible decision. Out of four meals, not one was of good quality. We had three chicken dishes and aromatic duck. The duck was far too crispy. It was dry with no flavour but at least we managed to eat some of it. Whereas the chicken (if it is chicken?!) was horrendous. All three chicken dishes were inedible. I can only describe the texture as that of quorn. The sauce was murky water masquerading as satay sauce. It really was rank. It’s a shame, The Rainbow House always used to be a safe bet.

Chicken Curry was absolutely terrible far too spicy for a Chinese curry and the chicken was rubber squares of so called meat.

You always get a cheery welcome st Rainbow House, that amazing food! Always tasty, always hot, with a fantastic choice! It does get busy but it’s well worth the wait!

Absolutely delicious Chinese food 🍲

Very busy take away so expect a wait for food. Food is very good and lots of it. Crispy beef in chilli sauce is superb Good all-round take away

Popular for miles around, intirley a Take Away... See My other review, updates will be posted

couldn't get an answer on the phone so drove over to order and the phone was ringing right next to owner when I arrived wouldn't reccomend

First visit: OK food, pretty standard selection and flavours, order took longer than we were told, and service was cold at best, however the Shredded Chilli Beef saved a worse score!

Nice people nice food Fair prices!

Bloody awful. Chicken balls tasted a week old and everything else was so dry and salty it was inedible.

Great food, but I can never seem to order over the phone, even if its not busy.

My first visit on November 3.2018. I can truthfully say that it's the most disappointing Chinese takeaway I have ever had will not b going back?for sure. VERY.POOR

Excellent I've used rainbow house since it opened in the 1980s

Very nice takeaway however make sure to get there early as gets very busy...if you try to phone an order you will have a long wait...only open evenings and Saturday lunchtime.

Pretty dire, the guy working there was miserable as sin, 45 minute wait and then when we got back the order was incorrect and food quality poor, wouldn’t recommend wasting your time or money

HIGHLY RECOMMEND, It has been a family run Chinese take out for over 30 years and Every time we have had our take out from this place I can't fault it, can honestly say I don't think we ever would, I know they say never say never but their continuity speaks for itself, if you know they are open and you can't get through its more than likely they are rushed off their feet so don't just find another to get one take a trip and go place you're order, you may have to wait a little while but as they say all good things come to those that wait.

Always great, never had a bad meal from here. My favourite and the nearest to my home.

My friendly local Chinese takeaway - not the widest of menus, but always reliable and excellent value. An Eynsham institution.

Rainbow house is the best Chinese in this a okrea it is always first class. Steve Smith

Always hot fresh food great chinese

Yip's is the best Chinese in the country!wouldn't go anywhere else

Very tasty food. It can be busy at times, but that explains itself when you tasted the food. Pricing is good as well. Best Chinese take-away around.

A great restaurant and takeaway that would be even better if they accepted card payments and had online menu.

I was really looking forward to it but small Portions and everything tasted the same very spice hot!! I will never be back again

Great food, friendly service, very reasonable prices. There is quite a long wait but you can see why when it's so busy!

They are busy always for a reason!

Been using them for many years...never a problem. Only annoying thing they take holidays and shut the shop......very unfair !!!!!!

Never had a bad meal from there

Salt & pepper spare ribs must be tried. I love that they prioritise people in shop above phone calls. Service is quick and lots of local pubs to wait in.

Very busy takeaway shop and even still only had to wait 25 mins. The phone rings off the hook with orders. Some of the best Chinese food I've had takeaway style. Shame it's in oxford and not back home. Highly recommend if you're in the area.

Chinese takeaway, with usual selection of Chinese food.

Good take away Chinese. Always very busy which is a good sign but service is still quick nonetheless. Can definitely recommend.

The best Chinese in Oxfordshire

Fantastic food, best in the area by far.

A great local takeaway! Fresh, tasty food.

Rainbow House is very tasty, and really good quality. The staff are friendly, and the food just great. If only all were up to their standard. Would recommend every time.

Literally the best Chinese ever!!! 😍 My family and I go here all the time and they have done since before even I was born and the food has ALWAYS been delicious and we get given generous amounts and we've NEVER had any issues! Staff are lovely and very friendly and we're always greeted kindly :) We don't have to wait too long for our food either! Would DEFINITELY recommend Rainbow House to everyone!! :D
