Reviews Overview

Customers rave about the half duck, which is generous enough to serve 4 to 6 people—perfect for family dinners. The crispy shredded chilli beef is another must-try; its flavors always hit just right, leaving patrons eagerly recommending it to friends. Many love the salt and pepper chicken wings, praised for their crunchiness and flavor balance. The chow mein variations receive high marks for freshness and generous portions, making it a staple choice among locals. Plus, the friendly, attentive staff that often goes the extra mile by adding a complimentary drink or snack to orders enhances the overall experience.
Most Disliked
Despite all the positives, the lack of delivery service is a consistent concern. Many customers express disappointment that they must collect their food, though they admit it's worth the trip. Cash-only payment options can also be inconvenient for some, especially given the growing trend of digital payments. A few patrons feel that during peak hours, the wait time can stretch a bit longer than desired, though this usually is a testament to the restaurant's popularity. However, for those who appreciate good food, these minor inconveniences don't detract significantly from the overall experience.

They don't do a delivery service.. but it's worth every penny to collect. The 1/2 duck is enough for 4-6 people well recommended. Chick chow is done perfectly. I can't say a bad thing about this place. I will take pictures on my next visit for you google reviewers

Great food from here and friendly helpful staff. I've tried salt and pepper chips, a hot box, beef in black bean and special chow mean. All fresh and good portions

What a find! We wouldn't go to any other Chinese now. The food always tastes fresh and delicious. The crispy shredded chilli beef is great! We have never had a dish that we didn't like. The owner and staff are all very nice. How kind of you to pop in some spring rolls to our order! And a bottle of drink. Keep enjoying the basketball 😊 I can't recommend enough trying this takeaway. They don't deliver but it is 100% worth a drive to pick up food from here. There is parking right outside.

Had a delicious king prawn curry, would definitely recommend this place to others. Only took 10 mins to collect. Quick fast and easy service.

We're new to Hereford area and my partner is quite fussy when it comes to a decent Chinese as he has a specific dish that he loves. After going to two other take aways that didn't do what he liked I tried here and they had it, and he said it was as good if not better than the place he first found his meal. The girls at the desk were lovely and really helpful as well as another customer already in there who also helped me find what I was trying to describe to the girls. It is safe to say we have found our new Chinese take out place for the future! 100% recommend. Great food and service! Thank you!

Visited the fantastic LUCKY 9 take away and were not disappointed! The food was delicious! This is possibly the BEST Chinese takeaway we've ever had. The shop was very clean and had excellent Covid security - screens and hand sanitizer stations in place. The take away is cash ONLY - so be prepared for this. It's such a shame that we're visiting the area on holiday as we'd definitely love to eat at Lucky 9 again... we've obviously got next year's holiday sorted out now! Thank you for a brilliant experience!
