Ordering from Happy Rice, takeaway is the quickest way to get your food. If you order delivery, you should expect to wait 45-90 minutes as orders can pile up quickly, especially during later hours. For collection, you should expect around 5 minutes per item you order if you order in person. Since it is a single-location business, slip-ups do occasionally occur during busy hours but overall you should expect well-packed and warm to eat food. There are great deals which do make Happy Rice stand out to its competitors (you should check the website or pick up a menu from the location to check for yourself). I have had Happy Rice to collect for dinner several times and I can say with confidence as of 2025, Happy Rice is great Chinese takeaway to consider.

Since moving to Edinburgh, I found it hard to trust a good Chinese place. But finally, thanks to my work, I got to know Happy Rice. I had a delivery today, and while it’s early to review since I only had one delivery, I just wanna say that I really appreciated their service. The lady who delivered the food to me was nice and friendly. She really recommended food that I needed to try next time and gave me an in-house voucher. I really appreciated the effort they put their soul into the business. It’s great to see. I hope I will get the same experience next time.
