Delicious food, always been a favourite! Make sure to book a table if you don't want to wait in the queue at Yum Cha on the weekends. Maybe I'm wrong but it seems to be more expensive than their Chinatown branch. Still worth a visit if you want to enjoy authentic dim sum! read more

Excellent restaurant in Chinatown. Food - dumplings and duck - was fresh and very delicious. Servers were patient and really helpful, especially when we didn't know how to eat the duck! We were lucky to get a table at 5:30. Prices are reasonable. Bathrooms up a steep flight of stairs. read more

Great food! Good service and decent ambiance. I really enjoyed the food here. It's certainly some of the freshest and best ducks I've ever had. It was great! I also had the dim sum shrimp dumplings. Two dishes that were filling for one (and I eat a lot). The food was packed with flavor and it was a good experience. When in Chinatown, be sure to check them out and enjoy! read more

Originally I was going to meet family here for a meal (most likely Chinese food) but life happened and it wasn't logistically possible this trip. Before leaving London, I had to have Chinese food at least once. My relatives living here mentioned it was pretty good so I had to see for myself. I looked on Yelp and found Gold Mine. It wasn't too far away from us and the pics looked good. Reviews were mostly all good too so we decided to dine here as our last dinner in London. It'll also be a month before we get to eat rice again so we had to get our last fix in. The restaurant is spacious and a typical looking Chinese restaurant. Staff here all speak proficient English and Chinese. Most of the customers were Chinese so that was a good sign. Mink and I took a look at the menu and ordered Hot & Sour Soup (Chicken and Seafood), Half Roast Duck Cantonese Style with no bones, Salted Fish Fried Rice with Diced Chicken and Hot Tea. It didn't take long for our order to get to us because we ordered as the restaurant started filling up and beat the dinner rush. By the time our order got to us, the restaurant was full. The food overall was quite good so we can see why. We did add gratuity but felt a little pressured to do so when paying but overall, it was a good experience dining here. read more

With a large Cantonese population, there are many Chinese restaurants to choose throughout London. We decided to go to Chinatown to ensure authenticy and found this family-owned restaurant that specializes in Hong Kong style Chinese food. Gold Mine did not disappoint. Gold Mine specializes in BBQ roasted meats. So of course we had to try it and their BBQ roast duck is about the best as you can get. It was succulent and nicely seasoned for that perfect bite. We also ordered the traditional Cantonese style fresh steamed fish (sea bass) with ginger and green onions. Perfectly prepared and delicious. The place definitely gives me vibes of eating in a Chinese restaurant in Hong Kong. Service was attentive and good. Ambiance is as you would expect for a typical simple family owned Chinese restaurants, but the food is undoubtedly top notch. If you are looking for excellent Cantonese food at a reasonable price, Gold Mine is definitely the place to consider in London's Chinatown. read more

Try the 3 Cup Chicken!it is so flavorful and delicious! I'm craving it as I write this review. I've been a couple times now and each time their food quality and taste is just as good if not better than the last visit. This will become one of my regular spots and food quality is exceptional and it is well priced. read more

Food was average. We ordered 3 dim sum dishes, 1 entree (pork), & 1 bowl of rice. Service charge was added; but staff asked for tip. We ended up paying $81 USD. Way overpriced; we felt cheated. Would not recommend. read more

Awesome food!! Raining and this place was busy!! Great food!!! Ambience was nice take out bag was amazing!

I walked in and asked 有冇瀨粉？ they said no. Then I asked 河粉？they said yes, then I said 燒鴨河粉。 They have some fat meaty ducks here and it was the best I've had for a long time. I'm coming here every time I'm in London. read more

After a trip to Italy and Malta with full of pasta and pizza food, I was ready to enjoy a different style of food. My mom chose this restaurant's before it was a short walk from Piccadilly circles. We waited for 5 mins and we was called. The place is not big but we seat comfortably with a table of 3. Service was great and food delivery was quick. They did a great job to get turn around. We ordered won ton noodles soup; fired rice, beef chow fun and Sui Mai. All food came out hot and delicious. Tea was hot and all comfort food in our stomach. We will visit this restaurant again next time in London, we will order the roast duck and bbq Pork for sure. read more

Good roast duck. The skin was crispy. The Bbq pork was also decent. I would come here for the BBQ. Fried rice was nothing special.

From Hong Kong and SF, this place has the best roasted duck even better than HK! Must try!!!

Great food. Use real crab in their soup which was yummy! The Singapore noodles were disappointing- not spicy and were oily and lacked flavor...& not the place to go as a solo dinner. Service sucked...ignored me and rushed me (simultaneously achieving that feat is hard). Clean toilets can see I am scrapping the barrel here. My favourite three places in neighborhood were full and regret trying a new place instead of waiting...I did request extra beansprouts and they accommodated this request so hence the 3 stars read more

Looking for great tasting Asian food?!.. well, here's the spot. The duck and chicken tastes very good. Tofu sizing was very big. The food here is more Chinese found in London.

This is a great place if you are staying near Bayswater and in the mood for some good Cantonese food. The service is efficient and the menu is diverse and not overly complicated. I ordered the roast crispy pork belly over rice, with some stir fried Chinese broccoli. My daughter got the same dish and when she didn't finish it I polished hers off because it was so good! At the end of the meal we were treated with some delicious, sweet, juicy oranges . Goldmine is probably my favorite Chinese food restaurant in London! read more

Gold Mine - This is the roast pork over rice - Chinese Near Me - London, XGL

There is no queue number to take so you have to talk to the waiter and register with him. We went especially for the very tasty and juicy roast duck. The rest of the dishes are as tasty too for Cantonese style cuisine. If you are in a crowd of four to 6 people, it is more worth it to order "cabin crew set". It comprise a mixture of any five dishes. Strongly recommend to try it when you are in London. read more

Had dinner here on a Saturday night at 7pm and the place was JAMMIN'. Waited about 10 minutes for two of us but the entire time we were there, the dining room was FULL. Incredibly authentic (and crispy) duck seems to be the specialty here. Very reasonably priced in a great neighborhood. Also tried the beef and noodles (my personal favorite) and the vegetable spring rolls. Most dishes here are served family style, meant to be shared. Friendly staff always smiling and quick with a joke. Great joint, highly recommend! read more

Daughter and I loved the outside menu so we went in...were promptly seated with excellent service. The prices are reasonable and the establishment is clean and well organized. We felt like soup. Daughter had the roast duck with noodles soup and I had the shredded duck and vermicelli noodle soup. So much food...we couldn't finish. The soups were good, though slightly bland and greasy...but that's duck. We ended up trading soups. We'd love to come back and try one of the other many dishes offered. read more

So many reviews extolling the roast duck at Gold mine on Yelp, that I had bookmarked it eons ago. For some reason, I'd never eaten here though. (I have lunch in this area every 7-10 days and end up at My default picks for Thai or Spanish food most of the time) This time I set out determined to eat the roast duck at Gold Mine and check what the fuss was all about. Oh my! That duck was gorgeous! The fat melting in the mouth was like a beautiful piece of pork fat - I've never tasted duck fat like that & at the same time the skin was crispy too and the meat ever so tender. My favourite meat is pork, but the barbecued pork (also good) did not hold a candle to this roast duck! I chose the Singapore vermicelli noodles to go with my meal. They were just what I wanted - really thin fine noodles, fried up street food style and just perfect with the fat of that perfect duck. All 3 dishes for 22£. I've got to take the family here to try this duck. I was lucky to not have to brave a queue at 2:30pm, but the restaurant was quite full. However, I must say that standing in line would be worth it for this roast duck. Just the duck & a side of noodles or rice would be perfect. read more

Ah, its been a while since I've been to Gold Mine, and after my recent meal I kicked myself for not coming back earlier! They've now expanded to take over the next door restaurant, so they have loads of tables and space, so while you still have to wait without a reservation, the wait is much shorter. Some of the favourite dishes, that you have to order here: - Roast duck, of course - Pork belly with yam - three types of stuffed vegetables (from the chefs special menu at the back) Pricing is good, portions are big (get 3-4 dishes to share between 4-5 people), and the food arrives quick but hot and fresh. read more

Talking about famous Cantonese Roast Duck. This restaurant has also one of the best cantonese roast duck in London. Rumour has it that the chefs from Four Seasons actually worked here for some time before going back to Four Seasons again. Unsure the reason. Dispute?? Anyway, I have to say the tenderness of the duck here is equal to the one in Four Seasons. No difference. The difference lies in the ratio of the fat of the duck and the sauce that accompanies the duck. The duck fat here is less compared to Four Seasons and is more lean. So healthier. That said, who in the right mind would want to eat Cantonese Roast Duck and be healthy. So this is negligible. The sauce which accompanies the duck here however seems to be more to the savoury side compared to the one in Four Seasons. The one in Four Seasons is slightly sweeter. I prefer the Four Seasons slightly sweeter version. I do not see much difference in the duck to be honest. Both of them were cooked similarly. The other chinese food here I cannot comment much as I haven't really tried much. But probably a bit slightly better than Four Seasons. The staff here are also much nicer and more polite compared to the one in Four Seasons. You expect to be scolded and shouted at in Four Seasons. To those who cannot stand rude staff and long queues, I would probably recommend Gold Mine. read more

I went here with my GF's family who are Chinese. We had a big group of about 10-12. We ordered almost everything off the menu. It was fantastic. I got to try lots of things I would have never ordered myself. Somethings good, somethings not to my liking. But nonetheless, everyone I was with was very pleased with the food and service. Its a small place and it got very crowded, but I didn't mind, it's London. read more

A friend of mine took me there two weeks ago. He said they had really good duck, and I was like, oh, well, you know, I've had good duck before. My Vietnamese aunt actually makes the best duck in the workd. But sounds cool. But that duck is AMAZING (almost as good as my aunt's). The place is quite successful so you might have to wait a little bit but it is worth it (I don't say that very often, sadly for someone who lives in London I'm not a huge fan of queuing for food). We shared a £8.50 portion of duck (obviously), some garlic veggies that were just crunchy and savoury and perfect, and some salt and pepper squid - very good but I could never eat a whole plate of that by myself, it's not very light! It is very reasonably priced and even with beers it cost us under £40 for the two of us. I will definitely go back! read more

Roasted duck - Goldmine, Queensway Goldmine has been taking over Four Seasons for London's best roasted duck for the last few years. The ratio of fat and meat was very balanced.

I just don't like the fact that they deboned it read more

This place does excellent duck off the bone. The interior is clean and pleasant. Each dish is good for sharing. The spinach we ordered could have comfortably fed 4-5 people. The curried lamb was quite delicious too, lots of cinnamon and star anise in it. Soup was a simple chicken and sweetcorn and there was nothing wrong at all with it. In all, this place is special not because it does anything extremely well, but because it does almost everything right with little fuss. The limited dessert range was disappointing, but it's likely because they were about to close when we wanted to order this. We managed to order a red bean pastry dessert which was probably frozen and a little oily without the normally customary sago pudding dessert. In all, if you're looking for some decent Chinese around Bayswater and don't want to risk disappointment, then Gold Mine is the safe bet. There are a lot of cantonese people that eat here. A good sign. Otherwise there are plenty of Malaysian restaurants around due to the ex-pat community, and the nearby Malaysian hall, but the quality of these places aren't close to the cuisine you'd actually find in Malaysia. So again chinese here might be the safest bet. read more

You are either a Gold Mine duck fan or a Four Seasons one and I'm definitely a die hard Gold Mine fan. Gold Mine ducks are usually fattier than Four Season ducks which make them much juicier. I have transported their duck by hand via plane for family members who just love it so much - if you let the Gold Mine staff know, they will make the necessary arrangements for you so it still tastes good after 12 hours across oceans! Their other items that comes in the sizzling woks are really good too. Have been here multiple times and have never been disappointed. read more
