Yummy King Chinese Takeaway in Hinckley and Bosworth

Waited 1.5 hours for food just for it to arrive and half of it was missing. We called to tell them this and there was no apologise, the woman on the phone just said she would 'send it next time' ?!! When we said we wanted the food now as there was no point is us eating what they sent because it was just chips and rice. She said they were very busy and they'd try and send the remaining food out within 30 minutes. 1 hour later the food arrives and it was cold. 2.5 hours wasted waiting for food that all ended up in the bin. DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE!!!!!

Ordered food via just eat a few times now. Food is always hot and well cooked and tasty.well done chef

Worst Chinese I’ve had, was cold when arrived, no flavour, had to throw it

Chinese was hot and on time as usual! We have ordered from Yummy king multiple times, not sure why it is showing as new but it was nice thank you!

ordered at 21:55 delivered at 22:05 very hot and tasty.

Well impressed so tasty and flavourful

Our go to Chinese! Always happy with our food, great communication and service is always the best. We won’t use anywhere else!

Wrong dish delivered. Ordered chicken with green pepper and black bean sauce and got beef.

I order frequently and it's usually superb. Most of what was delivered was perfect but the satay skewers tasted odd. not the sauce but the chicken tasted off. It was sort of fishy tasting.

Ordered many times and never a bad experience. Food is lovely and always warm! Delivery also great.

Ordered a munch box for a silly price for what it came like chips was stone cold and hard the meat I was like it had had no meat on the bone ribs was the same basically everything was cold!!!

Mix Chow Mein had only one prawn in it. Chicken Chow mein was stone cold.

Great service and really nice food. The portions are great too. I've never had a bad dish from there.

Excellent food and brilliant delivery as always!

Food was very nice. Wait was very long.

I never write complaints or rate places but the food arrived after 1 hour 25 minutes +. The rice was basically cold and mushy. The other food was slightly warm (not hot) … everything in the munch box was sickeningly sweet!

tepid food, rice days old so was beef dish it tasted off was inedible with burnt cashew nuts, tofu tasteless and mega greasy. I'd say £32.00 worth of takeaway £25.00 worth went in the bin. gone down hill sadly won't be using again or recommending...

10/10 would would eat again. Put more filling in spring rolls please and more salt and pepper on chips.

Chicken balls were burnt and hardly any meat on the ribs I definitely won’t be using them again

Everything very salty and asked for no onions in any of the dishes as can’t eat them and I had more onions than chicken. Only good thing what food I could eat was hot

great food fast delivery and with lovely quality and quantity

Ignore the bad reviews, I've been living in the Leonardo hotel for 3 months for a large project 5 days a week and I've had tons of these, always the same quality, it's not top tier but it never lets you down when you need it.

Great food with quick delivery

lovely food always use them 😋 👍

Pleasant delivery driver. Great tasting food!

This food was delicious, the chicken was juicy the batter was perfect not weird dense and soggy or oil filled, the chow mein was delicious and well cooked and seasoned, and another thing the sweet and sour sauce was still a sauce which rarely happens.

Excellent service, Excellent food, Great choice of dishes, Delivery with a smile

Trying out for the first time in about three years and was good quality food, not a big Chinese food eater so couldn’t say if it’s better or worse than the other local takeaway

A little disappointed with the meat spring rolls, but absolutely enjoyed everything else!

the delivery was brilliant but the food was terrible. the pork balls were tough and greasy. the duck rice was dry and chewy. not enjoyable at all

Unfortunately food was disappointing

Hands down the best Chinese takeaway we've had in the last few years! Our order arrived earlier than expected- always welcomed in my house! food was still hot, tere was plenty of meat and prawns in both dishes, which were also packed with flavour. Our order was correct. We will absolutely order from here again!

Food arrived a little early but that was better for us. Food was very tasty and hot. Very happy and will be ordering again soon

Ordered from here numerous times, this order was for about 8 people so big order nothing missing all hot and fresh. Always give us free veg spring rolls and a couple free bags prawn crackers. My sons 18th birthday this was his choice of takeaway for himself and friends was lovely, thank you 😊

Once again it was packaged well, looked amazing, tasted delicious and the driver delivered it carefully and quickly. I recommend highly and I will continue to order again. All the best!

Great food and good sized portions. Will definitely use these again.

I ordered on Uber Eats, delivery was 35 mins later than the original 45 mins, the chow mein was cold but otherwise nice, the chicken in black bean sauce was horrible with fatty chunks of chicken so was inedible. Overall would avoid

Arrived in 20 minutes when estimated time was an hour. They forgot 1 of the fortune cookies, but food was good.

Delivery was early which was great but can’t say the same for the food. It was cold and very bland it felt like it was just reheated and I’ve never had a chow mein where the meat is on top of the noodles just not enjoyable at all. Thought we would give a different Chinese ago but back to our usual from now on.

Awesome shall be ordering again

love the food and the service is excellent as always 👌

the good was 50 mins early which isn't good when we were waiting for our friend to arrive I thought the good wasn't as good as all our previous orders

The food was delicious, the only thing I would change is to go a tiny bit lighter on the salt as certain parts were slightly too salty, regardless good value and a tasty dinner

Inedible, will not be ordering again

Absolutely delicious, thank you

worst food from here I've ever had!! used yummy king for a long time,chowmein tasted off and smelt disgusting...chilli chips!!! wow just chips with what looked like a pile of chilli seeds in some kind of goo all in one clump!!! looked awful,smelt awful,tasted awful!!!

We order from here quite often and tonight was oddly small portions. Not sure why. Only got 4 very thin and small spare ribs for £8, not much meat on them. The pancake rolls were about half the size of normal. Maybe they’ve reduced the portion sizes on purpose…

the food is excellent as is the delivery driver 10/10

Delivery time kept getting pushed back and eventually only the mains turned up. Tried calling the number provided multiple times and it will not go through - takes you to a voicemail which is full and won’t allow you to leave a message. Have had great experience ordering from here previously but this has left a very sour taste. Would leave the stars as zero but the app wouldn’t allow it.

didn't mind it being early was even surprised and driver was friendly

I have been charged twice on different cards for one order! One card told me it was for rejected but now it showing as paid, why would a restaurant deliver 2 orders to the same address, doesn’t make any sense! I want a refund, capital one are looking at how you took a payment without authorisation!!

Very very late! Food was average

Food was over an hour late and when it arrived it was cold most of the food had to go into the bin

really nice and here before time x👍

Perfect every time! Best Chinese food in the area.

excellent service food yummy thanks

the beef and black bean sauce is spicy and it doesn't say on the menu

I am shocked to see such bad reviews. I've eaten lots of Chinese food (the real one not the one cooked for British) and I actually really appreciate this takeaway. We always order everything "chili salt" and the squid, the prawns and the ribs are amazing

Lovely food. delivery driver pleasant. Would recommend thank you

Good but could have more salt and chill chicken

food was okay, not the best but definitely not the worst. When we ordered it said would arrive 9-9:30. however it turned up at 8:35 Which we were not ready for having only just got home

Really tasty, the Singapore chow mein was super spicy but it is a spicy dish. Only wish that there were half portions available for kids. 👍

Delicious food and super prompt delivery. Very happy.

We had the salt and chilli munch box and I was delicious! Our food came early, and was warm and tasted so good. We will definitely be having this again!!

Brilliant food as always just a shame the chips have gone half the size as there my favourite bit

Completely wrong order delivered but the right receipt was in the bag. Tried to call but they had closed. Paid cash so can't get refund via Just Eat. Had mushrooms in the rice. I have allergies!

delivered on time, nice delivery guy, delicious meal and def recommend, look forward to the next order, thanks guys :)

Everything was fine, I just think it's a shame how you get charged 10p for plastic bag, l have a choice when I go to the supermarket I can take my own, they charge me £20 for a meal so what's the point in bothering with 10p for a bag, might seem a bit pathetic I'm just a principal person and any excuse to get even an extra 10-pence out of you seems a bit sad, so tbh the next time I order a Chinese takeaway it won't be from here 🤷‍♂️🥴 ( I bet you're glad you charged me 10p for the bag now)

Excellent, delicious food,as always.

food very poor left overs from yesterday and reheated wont be back

Curry sauce tasted of powder mix and, I don't know what the meat was but it wasn't beef

Stone cold won’t be ordering here again

Having had to wait over nearly jne hour and 45 mins for my food... the food was not fresh and the chios looked like they had been reheated over and over.. by this time and after waiting so long I wasn't hungry anymore. The chow mein was barely warm nor was it fresh. Then was charged 2 pound for a small can of coke when I ordered 1.5 litre bottle. Will not take my costume there again, when u pay out for food u expect it to be fresh and edible.

Too much salt and why has my whole salt and chilli box meal covered in sugar? Also the ribs was the smallest ribs I’ve ever seen.

Delivery came rice was missing rang up said would send it straight away ended up ringing again 20mins later asked them to sent a new order out as other stuff was cold bought a new order out and took old one rice was missing again rang up again the lady on phone was calling me a lier more or less than in the end sent a rice everything was cold won't be ordering from them again.

excellent food and was earlier than said so even better. thankyou

Chow mein very dry tonight. I understand it is a dry dish, but tonight was an exception

food was a bit cold and the chips was soggy the sweet and sour sauce was really vineragy and to much batter on the mixed balls

Chips have been re heated, not happy at all

Taste was okay there are much better places- it was very late so may have impacted the flavour. Ordered at 7.40pm and it didn’t arrive until gone 10pm. Also I clicked to say it was late and ask for an update and didn’t receive one until 10.22m saying it was going to arrive at 10.40 but it had already arrived?

When food was 2 hours late we called. They seemed to have delivered the food to the wrong address but backtracked on this and said it would be 10 minutes. An hour later, they said they were in barford again and would re cook it. Food arrived 3 hours and 15 minutes late. Staff were rude.

No update from the restaurant that it would be late. Food was cold when it was finally delivered

Food is always hot and delivered on time. Friendly driver. My 1 year old loves the chicken chow mein. Would highly recommend this place

The food has always been great quality but this order was awful. The prawn toast had a strong beer taste, the chicken balls were tough and chewy, the chiw mein was bland and the crispy seaweed was soggy and bland. We've ordered all of these items before and they were amazing but this has really put a bad taste in our mouths

No other word than perfect to describe the whole experience!

Chicken soup was way too salty and really small portion for 4 £, chicken skewers - meat was really chewy and taste just not good, same for noodles. Will not order again.

Lovely food, I would order from again.

Said it was delivered but wasn’t

I've ordered from Yummy Kitchen a few times now and absolutely love it! The food is delivered within the hour and is always piping hot! Their cha siu bbq sauce is the most authentic I've had in a long time and I especially love their chicken dishes. The chicken is so soft and succulent and really delicious! I love that they have a website that you can order online from and they have a variety of dishes to choose from. I've been telling all my friends about this takeaway as think everyone should try it! They should call themselves Yummy Kitchen! 💕💕 I have ordered from Yummy King many times and there is no doubt that I love it! The takeaway was delivered within an hour and was still hot! Their BBQ sauce is the most authentic I've had in a long time. I especially love their chicken meal. The chicken inside is soft, juicy and very delicious! I like that they have a website where you can order online and they have a lot of dishes to choose from. I have been telling all my friends about this takeaway because I think everyone should give it a try! They should be called Yummy Kitchen! 💕💕

We ordered prawn toast and didn’t receive them. Crispy chicken was soggy and not very nice.

Absolutely disgusting the curry was OK the chips were over cooked, the Banana fritters well here we go, there were mouldy and off tasting to the extent of being unwell. Look at the photos. Food & Hygiene rating is wrong, so I will be contacting the council.

Best Chinese, love the chow mein

The chips weren’t good and the meat had skin on still.

came hot. kids really enjoyed it and bbq sauce was very nice. Will be ordering again deffo!

Great job, prompt delivery, pleasant bloke, lovely food :-)

Understandable due to new year’s eve, just would have liked a better approximate time! :)

food was over cooked, and although I order the salt and chilli box, it would have been nice if the food wasn't practically burnt and the salt content probably would be my yearly amount rather than a daily amount! honest worst meal ever. I have been a loyal customer for years but the food quality is awful, food tastes like its been cooked and then reheated in a frier. Gross 😝

My orders are always ready early. Always hot and delicious. Highly recommended

That was great choice in Chinese food, loved it

The Salt and chilli box had so much salt it wasn’t eatable (and I like salt!) and just half a chilli chopped up and thrown on top. The chilli crispy shredded beef was more sweet than chilli and far too much batter! Worst Chinese meal I have ever ordered.
