THE RUBY Chinese Takeaway
If you’re in Birmingham and craving a Chinese fix that hits the spot without fuss or frills, THE RUBY Chinese Takeaway on 6 Beacon Road might just be your new go-to. Sitting comfortably in the B43 7BP area, this place brings forward all the things we love about classic Chinese takeaway-fast service, generous portions, and bold, familiar flavours that warm the soul, whether it's a solo dinner or a late-night snack run.
Now, what makes THE RUBY stand out isn’t just convenience-it’s how well they execute the basics. First off, their menu is packed with Chinese takeaway staples, perfect for when you just want your sweet and sour chicken done right or that comforting box of special fried rice that makes everything better. The kitchen doesn’t overcomplicate things. You’ll find the usual suspects like crispy aromatic duck, sizzling beef in black bean sauce, and chicken chow mein-each dish balanced in seasoning and texture. There’s something oddly satisfying about knowing you can order the classics and they actually taste how you hoped they would. That kind of consistency? Harder to find than you'd think.
And let’s talk about timing. THE RUBY Chinese Takeaway is designed for people who don’t want to wait around. Delivery and takeaway are both quick and easy-perfect for busy evenings or when the fridge is giving you the silent treatment. The vibe is casual, just the way you want it when your focus is the food, not fine dining. Whether you walk in to order, call ahead, or use an app, the process is streamlined. Plus, they accept credit cards and NFC mobile payments, so no scrambling for cash.
Another highlight is their late-night service. It's rare to find a Chinese takeaway in Birmingham that stays up as late as your cravings do. THE RUBY fills that gap with solid options even after regular dining hours, making it a favourite for night owls, shift workers, and partygoers winding down.
In terms of offerings, there’s a little extra sparkle here too-they serve alcohol and cocktails. That means you can upgrade your evening from simple takeaway to a chilled meal at home with a drink in hand. And yes, they do dine-in as well, so if you’re not in a rush or just want to eat it hot from the wok, there’s space for that too. The atmosphere stays casual, nothing too formal, just enough to enjoy your meal comfortably.
Accessibility matters, and while THE RUBY keeps it simple on that front, the essentials are covered-including restroom access for dine-in guests. It’s the kind of spot that doesn’t scream for attention but earns loyalty one satay skewer or pork dumpling at a time.
If you’re someone who juggles a tight schedule but still wants food that comforts and satisfies, or you're looking for that reliable Chinese takeaway in Birmingham that actually gets it right, THE RUBY Chinese Takeaway is worth checking out. It’s not trying to reinvent Chinese cuisine-it’s focusing on getting the fundamentals right and serving it hot, quick, and packed with flavour.
Food is out of ! Delivery on a weekend is slow as you could imagine but the service is great. Always so polite and lovely owners many chinese takeaways closer but the ruby is outstanding for food and I'm sorry I have to disagree with most of the negative comments as I have never had anything missing from an order and the food is so tasty!!!
