Lovely fresh food, not greasy or overly salty and friendly service. Generous portion sizes too and plenty of vege options. Would recommend.

These people are scammers!!! £5.50 for a container of rice but they don’t fill it up at all. There are clearly gaps in the container, and when I asked them to fill it up they refused and gave me back my food hastily. They are so so rude!!! It is also quite difficult for they to get your order correct which I think is unfair for the customers.I will insert a picture of the container so you can see how much space they left in it.

The best food you can get in Canterbury.

We ordered a takeaway, and it took 2 hours to arrive.....unacceptably long. The food was OK, but the tofu with vegetables and cashews was very bland- considering it was described as 'spicy'. We prefer the food at Kudos, and won't be ordering from The Royal Inn again.
Tonight was our first time eating at Royal Inn and I’d go as far as to say it’s the best Chinese food I’ve eaten in the UK. Everything is cooked fresh, perfectly seasoned and not overly salty, not gloopy or full of MSG. I love trying lots of different Chinese dishes but often end up leaving so much but here we finished everything. Not to say the portions are too small, just a perfectly balanced amount. The team are super friendly, especially the owner who took great pride (rightly so!) in telling us how her husband was freshly preparing everything. The wait time between courses was also spot on. The restaurant was quiet when we were visiting in January but it’s nicely decorated and the food and warmth of service is the real star of the show. Cant wait for our next visit!

Ordered delivery on New Year's Eve, restaurant were happy to take the order but the food never turned up. Had a refund processed but nothing else was open by that point so rather pointlessA shame as the food is normally great from this restaurant

This restaurant has gone down hill with quality of food and prices. It took so long for us to be served. They charged us nearly £4 for a tiny hoisin sauce, as my husband liked to dip his prawn crackers in this expensive sauce, as it is usually free in any chinese restaurant. We will never ever go to Royall Inn again. They even did not give us the right bill. Always check the bill if you dont want to be ripped off.
This is a beautiful sit down restaurant, but they do take out too (which I got tonight for the first time of using this place)......the food is really, really good!, very impressed!

Food is delicious, the dining room is casual and intimate. The staff are efficient and prompt. 10/10 cannot recommend enough. Excellent for both takeaway (collection) and eat

It has been 4 years since we have been back to the UK and eaten at this restaurant which was always a favourite of ours. On the whole very happy with the experience again, and enjoyed almost all of the food. The only thing that was not as good was the chicken satay sauce for the starter. Other than that happy with the seaweed, crispy duck pancakes and prawns in sweet and sour sauce Hong Kong style.

Visited this restaurant, along with a friend, during a holiday in Canterbury. They offer an extensive menu including a number of vegetarian options. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone in the area. The staff were also friendly and efficient and mentioned that all sauces are homemade which was noticeable from the taste. ?
