We have been staying in the area and decided to try Shun Fat out. On our 1st visit we had a Cinese....egg fried rice, lemon chicken and sweet and sour chicken balls. We had to wait about 15-20 minutes as the place was packed. Very reasonably priced and better than any other I've tasted. On the 2nd visit we had fishcake, chips and battered sausages. Again delicious. The staff are so friendly and happy. There was also good banter between the staff and the owner "Richie" (I think that is his name). I have no hesitation in recommending this place....A**

Rubbish never opens on time and closes early to suit himself. why advertise your opening hours if you are closed? Plus very dangerous parking

i have been coming here from KIDDERMINSTER especially for the shun fats chips and Chinese food. you cant fault it, its the best on the planet, and the people who run it are friendly and hard working. what more could you want. I am not a chip fan normally, but the shun fats chips are worth driving those extra miles for, as they are the only chips I like. well done.

Dont think I've ever had a bad takeaway from Shun Fat! I know the chips can sometimes be a bit greasy ... but when are chippy chips ever not? They've come from a frier what do you expect ? This place is always busy so the fish and chips is always freshly done and the bbq sauce is the best ever. Really good - you won't be disappointed.

Working in the area and this was the closest chinese takeaway. Menu looked great so I popped over to check it out Staff were great and knew the menu as I asked for mixed meat curry and they chose the Singapore Style curry with boiled rice. Prices were very reasonable and food was prepared quite quickly. I took it back to my guest house with a can of coca cola. Food was pipping hot as they use foiled containers. Portions slightly smaller than my usual chinese but didn't put me off as the quality of food was great! Good sized mixed meat in my curry including chicken, pork and king prawns, with onions but surprised no mushrooms. I had a portion of boiled rice to compliment my curry dish. The curry paste was nice a thick with a medium heat, just right for me. Thanks for a lovely dinner

The chill ribs are quite the best I’ve tasted as they are slow cooked then finally second cooked for serving so the meat just falls off the bone. No tearing at it caveman style. Next favourite is yeuong chow fried rice with a portion of the curry sauce which sets it off beautifully. For a snack go for chips and a curry sauce. All excellent.

Went there about 5 ish, was looking forward to the splendid food rated on this site. AARR...Total reheated, grease covered fish( may have been cod, couldn’t tell!) with equally rubber chips, a big, sticky mess of them. They ended up in the bin at home. I cannot remember worse. They show a five star rating on the window. I don’t think so. Will check with health department at the council.

Regularidad a chippy. Patatas fritas realmente encantadora, un poco pasada, pero eso es lo que me gusta de ellos, muchas patatas fritas, otros están demasiado seco, tratando de ser saludable en detrimento del chip humilde. La comida china que he probado también son preciosas, no buscar ahora thd para repetir bastante grande, pero las patatas fritas, especialmente frituras bien subido al día siguiente, no se hace nada desperdiciado.

We moved house and had had a very long day, with boxes of our belongings everywhere in our new abode. So we decided to get a chinese takeaway from our new local town (which is lovely btw). Someone had said that Shun Fat was good so we drove along and placed an order. The menu isn't hugely imaginative compared to previous Chinese menus that we'd been familiar with and the food when it arrived was disappointing, greasy and bland. We opted not to go back.

We love shun fat Chinese. Not to keen on there chips as they are often mushy or greasy but everything else is pretty good. The only thing if being picky would be sometimes it can be a bit greasy and there's no delivery which is a shame as the other two chineses offer a delivery service.

Ordered a meal of ribs for starters which were OK, mains were beef in black bean and chicken satay. The beef in black bean was tasteless but did get finished. The chicken satay was awful, the chicken pieces were not the best of quality, grisly and to top it off the large pieces were raw in the middle! When I saw this, it was binned immediately, not wanting to be ill on uncooked food. Very disappointed, won't be going back again for sure, not even for chips!

Richard at Shun Fat has consistently produced the finest salt and chilli ribs we have ever found. We try them elsewhere and have to tear the meat from the bone. Richard's fall off the bone like a well-cooked lamb shank does. His chips ( he is nominally a fish and chip shop) are also the best we find and better than many so-called award winning chip shops here in Bristol. His secret is a rigid adherence to quality and care in the cooking with frequent changes of oil and careful temperature control. We travel to Bromyard where we used to live to see friends, and we usually buy 2 or 3 lots of ribs to take back and eat hot or cold or freeze. Chips and a curry sauce as a starter. Yum Yum! The rest of his menu is as tasty and well-prepared as these two alternatives. Well worth the petrol for non-locals.

The only "chip shop" open on a monday and obviously they don't go fishing at weekends! Just had a "large" fish and chips as a last resort having used this place before and hated it.IT HAS NOT IMPROVED! The "fish" when the batter had been grinded through was not there,swam away possibly but deffinetily not in the batter,it was like a hollow tube.I was going to take the place to trading standards but what's the point when there's nothing to show them? How can a local beautiful rural place like this have such an awful chip shop? The locals love it only because there's no choice,don't be fooled by the other ratings,honestly don't go there!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been to no end of Chinese takeaways over the years, and I have yet to find one that beats my local. I have never, since coming to Bromyard in 1978, had a bad meal from this place.

Best Chinese in Bromyard - if only they would offer delivery service!Bromyard is a rural community and it can be a pain to get into car to drive 8 mile round trip for take-away. Fortunately the food makes up for the trip (As does the pint of real ale in the 'Rosie!).All in all - very good take-away.

I often come to this takeaway and I must say that the food is incredible! If you are thinking of getting a takeaway from Bromyard then Shun Fat over rules all of the other takeaways. There is such a wide variety of meals (not all of it is Chinese, so if you are not a fan, there is also fish & chips, pancake rolls etc) . The portions are quite large, so I would recommend getting smaller amounts of chips. It can be a little busy inside the takeaway, but that is only because it is so popular because it is so good. Ignore the bad reviews! The family who run this are friendly and helpful! :)

Bought a take away from this place, that once tried went straight in the bin, the chicken fried rice had what can only be described as pieces of blackened shoe leather in it.

Literally just eaten food from here for the first time so opinion is valid. Apparently this is the best chinese place? Come down to Essex then.. Smallest portion of rice ever, a joke for more then 2 people eating. Very average portion of chips, was led to believe it was going to be the largest portion I have ever seen.. The person saying that either works there or literally ordered the large portion in which case duh! You guys are missing out on roast pork chinese style so we ordered roast port with pineapple... it looks pale and disgusting, it smells horrible and you can guess what it tastes like.. Sorry to say but I also didn't have a eureka moment when I ate the chips.. they tasted fine but definitely not the best.

Finished my appointment early and the order was put in late on our end so had a little wait with a drink whilst it was being prepared as it was a bit too early for a full house of diners eating in. All staff were lovely and restaurant is pleasant enough. Takeaway arrived 15 mins earlier than quoted which is good but based on other reviews this might happen a lot and they might be guilty of "under promising over delivering" on wait times. Got home and unpacked our order, everything was correct. Tom Ka soup was lovely as were the main courses. Possibly wouldn't order the won tongs again as personal preference is steamed not fried. Both of us have travelled in Thailand before, it's clearly not as authentic as the real deal but as close as anyone is likely to get for Ledbury and all the key characteristics of Thai cooking is there, including lovely aromatic flavours which is a nice change from other stodgy options. Portion size was entirely in line with the price point as well; for context we had x2 starters x 2 mains and x2 sides of rice (plus a large glass of wine whilst I waited) and it was around the £45 mark. Would gladly order again if in the mood for a Thai.

Ordered food at 7:50pm. Estimated an 8:40pm delivery.. It came to 9pm and still no delivery. I phoned and the staff said "5 minutes away" Another 20 minutes I called again.. the woman blamed the driver.. claiming ‘ The driver couldn't read the satnav and had no credit to call me’ Given I live in the centre of Hereford on an old estate it's very hard to get lost.
