Ruby Fish & Chip Shop in Cheshire West and Chester

Just had the most fabulous and efficient service from Andy and Staff. We had a huge order that was prepared effectively and on time. The variety of food was delicious and piping hot. We had a bonus of Large portion of Extra chips. Phenomenal Service. Many thanks from 40 very Happy Bowlers at Coalville Town Bowls Club.

This place used to be really nice when younger. I assumed it would still be the same. But how wrong was I. Asked for a large chips got a small. The spring rolls have been reheated and they were soggy. Fish was so small and not nice at all. And so was the whole meal in general was singing. Never again will I be going there.

Decided to write a review as the takeaway sweet & sour port was brilliant. Great taste, great value, great ingredients. The chips were also excellent, lovely taste but not too heavy and greasy. Service properly friendly. Well pleased!

Not only is the food here great, every time. But Ruby is always a little ray of sunshine, making everyone feel better with her delightful chuckles. Service with a smile every time! Full menu photos added to make sure more people can enjoy as well, especially the vegatarians.

A+++, excellent food, love going to Ruby's, would definitely recommend!

Some of the best Chinese takeaway food we have had, nicely cooked, flavourful and not too greasy - served with a warm welcome

Unfortunately my veggie spring roll had an odd taste to it, and my chips weren’t very good- a bit sad. Let’s just say the next day I didn’t feel too well in the morning for a few hours

Food quality very good, Food portions very small, not worth the price charged to be honest🤔🤔🤔🤔

I’d lived in Hoole for 17 years and not tried Ruby’s before. So I thought why not I’ll give it a try. I wasn’t disappointed, it was very nice as good as any other decent Chinese in Chester. I will be returning on the odd occasion I’m feeling in the mood for a Chinese takeaway.

Staying over in Chester fancied a takeaway. Always a bit of a jump in the dark. However we won this time great food nice staff. In fact and we travel a lot and this is the best takeaway we have had for a long time. Would recommend. We had delivery to our hotel. This was not a problem.

A very warm welcome received, have recently found this little gem where prices are amazingly reasonable and the food is fantastic! Would highly recommend especially the prawn toast!

Fantastic meal, would recommend the prawn toast and back bean chow mein. Chips are the best. And prices are amazing for the amount you get. My new regular takeaway spot. Really lovely family.

Wow i have not written a review for many years but after spending £56 on a takeaway Chinese food from Ruby Chinese I'm disgusted. I have eaten Chinese takeaway up and down the breadth of the uk and reviewed many. I can't believe people in Chester will actually spend money on the poor quality food we have just received and really can not be the norm. Rubys Special Curry - full of salt and inedible to all but one who spent years in the forces and can eat anything but damn disgusting. Young chow fried rice, cooked in dirty oil (That’s why the rice is brown and so greasy) ingredients of very poor quality and no shrimp, I’ve never seen chopped Gristly bacon as an ingredient before and again massively over salted. Chicken Balls - considerably over battered and fried to a hard crisp, full of grease and a very small amount of chicken inside. Even after removing the batter the chicken is tasteless (what there is of it that is). Prawn on toast - a very thin layer of prawn, the toast over cooked and greasy. Only positive was the chips were nice!! Can’t really get that wrong can you though. I can not believe as a business you survive serving this poor quality of food. People have to save for take away now a days and sadly to give this poor quality of food for peoples hard earn cash is disgusting.

Where to begin. Everything just dripping in oil, Noddles had more oil than noodles, soggy oily veg spring rolls . They don't know how to do salt and pepper dishes just terrible. Really unhappy with order as I remember when I was younger this was a good Chinese's it's far from that now. Worst Chinese's I've ever had let alone in Chester

Friendliest service and delicious food. thank you Ruby!

Found this while on holiday. Bit of a wait for food but it was so delicious we had to go back again the next week. Wish I lived closer, (but my trousers don't).

Great food with great prices very pleased to live locally to this Great takeaway best Chinese food in Chester without a doubt and very pleasant staff

Best place to get a take away - outstanding food every time. Run by a wonderful and friendly family. My favourite is the lemon chicken, and the chicken is always excellent quality and absolutely delicious. I won't go anywhere else after discovering Ruby's x

I was visiting a friend in Littleton and said I'd pick up a Chinese takeaway on the way to her. As I live in Edinburgh I had no idea where to go so looked up lots of reviews and decided on Ruby Fish and Chip Shop. Had a lovely chat with the owners son whilst I waited for my food. Then had a fabulous meal with my friend. The portions are huge, we couldn't eat it all and the food is very tasty. My friend will definitely be using you again.

Lovely food portion sizes are abit small for the price but will return

Great Food! Ruby is a lovely lady with great service

ruby was delightful and the food was fantastic!

Had the chicken chow mein,beef chow mein and a portion of chips. Very nice, great price and friendly atmosphere. It was our first visit.

Just discovered this takeaway! Love the spring rolls that are freshly cooked on site. It is difficult to find veggie options in Chester but Ruby's has plently of tasty options. Very friendly service and good value for money.

First of all I must say that I received the most lovely welcome when I arrived at Ruby’s, in fact I’ve never had such a warm welcome from any takeaway I’ve ever been to, Ruby & her daughter Denise are genuinely nice people and it was a pleasure speaking to them. The food was excellent and easily in the top 3 takeaways I’ve had and rest assured I have very high standards. I only eat quality food at home bought from Waitrose, Booths, M&S or my local butcher/farm shop. We had crispy chilli beef, chicken and cashew nuts with yung chow fried rice and chips. Far too often takeaways serve you pieces of batter with just a slither of beef in, not the case at Ruby’s, lovely pieces of beef in a nice sauce with plenty of onion and peppers. The chicken and cashew nuts had plenty of nuts, nice pieces of chicken, lots of mushrooms and a nice bonus was peas and courgette, something I’ve never seen before but thoroughly enjoyed. The rice was very tasty with the correct amount of soy added to give a lovely colour, plenty of char sui and chicken added which made this a lovely complement to the meal. And finally the chips, which are proper “chippy” chips hand cut from real potatoes, not the frozen rubbish inferior takeaways often serve. Free prawn crackers was a nice bonus, these were crispy and fresh, not like some of the stale ones other places often serve. My Mum & Sister both thoroughly enjoyed the meal as well so that’s a big thumbs up from all of us, these dishes easily served three adults for under £20. I will definitely back to try other things off the menu whenever I am visiting my family in Chester. Oh and they also deliver! What more could you want!?

We dined on a take-out from Ruby’s last Sunday after failing to secure a booking at a local carvery, whilst on a weekend away. A google search showed that Ruby’s was highly thought of and we were not disappointed. We just had starters, but they were all piping hot and very tasty. Definitely good value for money and if we ever back in Chester, we will definitely be back again!

superb tasty food, excellent service

Friendly, helpful and above all the food was plentiful and delicious 👍

Lovely owner, great food and good price. I have ordered a few times from here, all dishes are lovely but my favorite one is Fried Beef with Mushrooms. Will definitely come back again!

Don't be mislead by the name, although they do fish and chips, this is a first class Chinese takeaway. Ran by the lovely Ruby, her husband and beautiful daughter Denise, this family run business has been here for 35 years. The food is exceptional, and skilfully cooked or handmade by the owners. A warm welcome is guaranteed and you can ask which is the best dishes they recommend. The portions are very generous as is the pricing very fair. Not your average Chinese takeaway, more like you won't forget this place!!

Good food, nice flavours, friendly people - definitely recommended. The hot and sour soup was excellent. All well flavoured without being too salty. Good system for paying by card via a text link. Thanks!

Very good chicken fried rice soy sauce friendly

Absolutely fantastic Chinese the spring rolls are the best I've ever eaten!! I ordered sweet and sour chicken and it's delicious and full of flavour and a chicken in a black bean sauce and it's fresh and full of flavour. The owners are a really lovely welcoming and friendly family I've traveled up from London to stay and they really made me feel welcome and took time to conversation with me Thank you! 😊

Very good food and a lovely lady

Absolutely adorable little take away. We just grabbed a quick portion of chips each, but they were super and the lady who served was brilliant. Thank you soo much for being lovely.

We came here a lot when we used to live in Hoole. It’s my go to place for Chinese food. Tonight we went back again after haven’t been here for a while. We got rice crackers, Peking Square Ribs, Sweet and sour chicken, fried rice, hot&sour soup and beef chowmein. Food tasted lovely as always ! Portion is always huge. Price is cheap compared to what we got. These ribs are massive ! They do take card payment. Staffs are very lovely and friendly. The owner, the Chinese lady always remind me of my grandma. She smiles all the time and make me feel welcomed everytime I visit.

Lovely friendly staff and lovely Chinese dishes. Wasn't keen on their chips. I will visit again and order rice instead with my meal.

Been going to the ruby for 25 years love the family always remembers me when i go now my grown up kids go as well nowhere better

I am ashamed to say I have never fancied a takeaway from here. Last month and again tonight we had a takeaway. Little to no grease. Hot and soup soup is amazing (comparable to any I have had in Asia) delicious meaty salt and pepper ribs. Highly recommend.... Gutted I have said there isn't a decent takeaway for Chinese and here was on in Hoole where I live! Try it.

Best Chinese food in Chester by far. Unlike other takeaways and restaurants there is next to no grease and no cheap ingredients used. If you want a authentic Chinese meal get yourself to Rubys. I recommend the Salt and Pepper King Prawns. Thank me later ; )

Was it the way from the norm, but worth it. Good food, good prices, good service

Ordered from here last week, I ordered the chicken chow mein, salt and pepper chicken and the ribs. The food was absolutely amazing and staff are very friendly. I love how it is a family run business using old authentic recipes. Wouldn’t look to order Chinese food elsewhere :)

Ordered Chinese takeaway from here for the first time this weekend. The portions were larger than other Chinese takeaways which was a nice surprise. We were told half an hour for delivery on the phone but this turned out to be more like an hour, and some of the food could have had a bit more flavour (chicken chow mein) but it seemed like good quality food. Will order again from Ruby's

Hands down the best Chinese takeaway in Chester. We've lived in Chester for 20 years and this is the best we've had. The only downside is that we only found it this year... Top tip - try the sticky beef!

We love Ruby’s, the sweet and sour is restaurant standard, chips are like homemade, great value and nice staff A ***

We buy food from this takeaway all the time as it is one of our favourites in chester. Food is always tasty, lemon chickin dish is amazing

Just moved to the area from Manchester. Thought we'd give it a try. Absolutely delicious. Not greasy at all. Staff are really friendly. We'll be back 👍

Ever popular chinese takeaway to that sets the standard locally.

Delicious food, friendly service and value for money. Won’t be using anywhere else from now on, so glad we found this little gem!

Best chinese takeaway in Chester, Ruby and family are lovely! Great value and food is fab 👍

Excellent fantastic service and great food thanks Ruby

The Best Chinese ever, wonderful food freshly made absolutely amazing, surport are local takeaway... 😁🍽🍲

Helen is the loveliest, amazing chips and a great vegan and veggie selection! I come here whenever I visit home and I've never had a bad visit.

So friendly and really good food!

Great food with the most friendly service ever. Superb

Always friendly staff, nice food and good prices.

Very disappointing in the meals I bought from here. Luke warm and the chicken did not look or taste like chicken. Will not be using this chippy again, meals thrown in bin !!!

Food was nice, menu had wrong prices on so be careful as I payed 3 pound more than was quoted on the menu

Has to be the best fish and chip shop i have ever been in. Great food

Ruby makes great chips. Her husband out back is a proper Chinese chef. Great food consistently over years and years.

Excellent Friendly Local Chinese Food. Always room for improvement in everything We do. The only reason I gave 4 stars.

Always consistently good. Used them for >25 yrs.

Nice chips, nice lady, but fish was somehow cocked in wok and was disgusting!

Nicest authentic Chinese food there is! Eaten here many times and always without fail friendly service with a smile and amazing food! Recommended here to everyone and the feed back from those who go are all the same! 5*

Absolutely the best Chinese in Chester, order in advance and be looked after by this local family run business.

Not good I found a dead dragon fly in my chips

Absolutely the best Chinese takeaway in Chester, people travel for miles around for "A Ruby", and that isn't cockney for curry either! Great great Chinese meals

Amazing service always & the food is always fresh. In particular highly recommend the salt&pepper chicken balls, sweet and sour chicken is amazing tho

We've enjoyed Ruby's takeaways for many years. Friendliest service anywhere. Great food and wide choice. V popular with locals -always a good sign. Highly recommend.

Ruby is a Chinese treasure who produces the most outstanding food. Tonight's Singapore noodles were brilliant. Her fish and chips are good too. How she remembers all her customers is beyond me but you always get a warm welcome

I love this place! Low price. Good food. Great customer service. Could be a little more generous with chip portions.

Nunca he estado en éste llevar antes y no sabía dónde estaba.Sal y pimienta costillas para morirseLa mejor Chow mein en ChesterSerá volver a tratar este finEl personal es muy atento y generosoCocina de Kens no es un parche en este

De lejos el mejor chino he ordenado. grandes porciones, un montón de carne y el mejor servicio al cliente que he encontrado. La señora que lo dirige realmente hace que mi día cada vez que visito. Hemos comido desde aquí fácilmente 50 veces (quizás demasiado) y no lo puedo recomendar más.

Ruby's is our favourite Chinese takeaway in Chester. Always friendly, the owners make great food. The only downside is that it can sometimes take a little while to get ready even when you've ordered on the telephone.

Great chips but a little bit of a let down having no muffins

This place does nice fish and chips. Five minute wait, but it's worth it. It is just a fish and chips shop, so I give this "restaurant" a rating of fish and chips out of fish and chips.

Me trasladaron a la zona y pensé que le daría una oportunidad.La señora que sirve era muy simpático, sin embargo, el lugar parecía muy sucias.Pedí por teléfono y me dijeron que para venir a recoger en 40 minutos. Cuando fui allí, había unas cuantas personas esperando. Una mujer vino y pedimos unas patatas fritas - ella estaba esperando casi 15 minutos por una bolsa.mi pareja y yo esperamos otros 40 minutos! Parece que lo preparan todo fresco, que era una buena cosa pensé ... sin embargo, me decepcionó mucho!Pedí pollo dulce y amarga y mi compañero pedí un plato de chili. Tengo que decir que el dulce y amargo era muy agradable con el arroz frito. El chili pollo era pobre, y yo estaba molesto que me había esperado mucho tiempo.no volvería otra vez - pena, ya que está justo al final de la carretera de mí. siento mal diciendo esto como la señora era tan agradable.
