Advantages: Nice food, good prices

Disadvantages: Service with a smile is somewhat lacking

Noodle time is a chain noodle bar based on Nelson Road in Greenwich, its a 30 second walk from the main high street about 2 minutes walk from the waterfront and a further two minute walk from Greenwich Park. It is a prime location and is always busy with locals and tourists alike.

Noodle Time looks garish when you glare through the window, it has bright orange benches and plastic tables, it also has a huge turnover of customers as its a fast food noodle bar.


For Greenwich its pretty low rent, but for Greenwich its also really good value, I have eaten here on a number of occasions, the beer is Chinese and tastes great, the fruit juices are created at the bar and taste fantastic, the food menu is fairly decent with around 120 different options. You can have starters, a small selection of desserts and a wide array of Chinese meals.

I have read a few bad reviews on here questioning the food, but over the years i've never had any problems, I love the egg fried rice and a wide variety of noodle dishes have also hit the spot over the years, I find the menu unadventurous but filling and its cheap too, a meal and drinks for two should come to around a tenner, be aware you must spend over £10 to use a credit/debit card.

The atmosphere is rushed and staff are efficient in an unfriendly robotic way, although this is understandable as they never stop. This is not the place to come for the buzz it is the place to come for cheap food though.

For me I sometimes judge a place by how busy it is, and although i've read bad reports on here, the joint is always busy, people are happy to eat quick meals or longer banquets, its not comfortable seating or a particularly stylish venue, but the food is great value, filling and tasty. And for Greenwich its good to have the option to eat somewhere cheaply.
