This has been the best Chinese food we have had in the UK so far! It was a surprise to find it on our day trip to Cambridge yesterday! We knew we made the right decision when all the customers in the restaurant were speaking Chinese.
The order process is simple, scan the QR code, add the items, and send in the order. It was quick and easy, and our food came out fast!
We ordered the fish and sauerkraut soup with handpulled noodles, cold noodles, pork and cabbage dumplings, and pork and chive dumplings. Everything was absolutely delicious, the spice level and flavours were what we missed from back home!
I would definitely recommend this restaurant! Not sure if they take reservations or not as we just walked in for an earlier dinner. However, as we were leaving the place was packed!
I also just saw that there's a location in London!! I'm excited to try that one out!
Small hidden gem near Holborn, serving the most authentic rougamos in London as well as delicious noodles and juicy dumplings.
Loved the fact that it’s in a quiet neighbourhood and not packed like all the other restaurants in touristy areas; you can really be there to enjoy the food without feeling any rush to leave or being frustrated from not getting a table.
Flavours were amazing. The sichuan pepper noodle soup really hit the spot with the numbing mala broth.
I had the cold noodles. They were good, but nothing too special. Service was quite fast but very overpriced for what you get. Not much variety of food either.
Delicious! One of the best 肉夹馍. Hand made wide noodles were also very authentic. Highly recommended.
Simply delicious.
The Rougamo is crispy and juicy — well beyond average even by Chinese standard.
Lamb soup noodles (I swapped for thick ones) are delicious with or without extra chili (not spicy just a little bit more aroma).
The hand-pulled noodles are amazing, hitting the beautiful balance of chewiness.
The service is warm and gives a family feeling.
(I had ordered deliveries before but the food definitely tastes better fresh out of the kitchen :)

Bought one for a friend and she loves it. The lean ones are still juicy and tasty. Nice :D
The veggie one (bought in case that friend is vegetarian) also tastes good, to my surprise. The vinegar gives it a different character from the soy sauce based flavor of the meaty ones.
A bit chaotic and stressful at the till during the busy hours.
the pork rougamo was great (especially w/ the chilli oil),
and the pork + chive dumplings in hot and sour soup were alright too, 12 dumplings in a portion! good to share. the soup was fantastic but I felt the filling to skin ratio was off.
One of my favourite places in this country!
I used to comer here all the time before moving away for the best rougamo and authentic hand pull noodles! The pork in classic rougamo is super juicy and tender! They are my absolute favourite!
All the staffs are so welcoming and friendly!
All the hand pull noodles are amazing, my absolute favourite is the chilli oil one, the beef one and the soup ones are also delicious! The portions are big as well, plenty seating available!
Day visit to beautiful Cambridge made us very hungry. We decided to walk into this place without prior research. Omg, i'm glad we did. We had the most delicious beef noodles and dumplings soup.
Shame can't have this a local Chinese as were only visiting Cambridge.
Food is tasty. I ordered fish & tomato soup and added some of their Chilli oil and that just boosted the taste and the taste by heaps. The quantity is generous - lots of fish & the noodle is delicious! Fried dumplings are great too, do let it cool a little before you consume. It's served hot and the juice might burst out and scald your tongue if you're not careful. I have strong taste buds and I love my food hot, so this works for me.
Such a nice lovely spot with great food at very affordable prices.
The best Chinese food I’ve ever tried in the whole U.K.
Really enjoyed this meal. Have never even heard of rougamo before, but it was delicious. The hand pulled noodles were also excellent and nicely chewy. Will certainly be coming back to try out some other dishes.
Love this place!! It is our favourite place to go for soup or noodles. They do the best Tomato Soup ever, and their hand made spicy noodles are just on the point, delicious! Portions are massive. Highly recommend, food is great, fresh and waitress are helpful and kind.
Ordered through Deliveroo and the food did surprise me very pleasantly. I ordered the braised pork hand-made noodles and they were delicious. The Biang Biang Mian had the right amount of “al Dante” even though they were take away. Glad the noodles weren’t oily or salty. Only thing I’ll def have to do on my next order is to add chilli oil.
(Am a Chinese who’s lived a fair bit of his life in Asia and have a love for Chinese food)
This place is top notch. I ordered the veg rougamo and the sliced beef sichuan pepper soup. The rougamo was outstanding. It reminded me of a Vietnamese sandwich. The soup was very tasty. Spicy for sure but not uncomfortable; it made my mouth tingle. Would definitely recommend.
✓ Vegetarian & Vegan Options
* Overall review at Last paragraph below
One of my favourite spots for hot and cold Chinese noodles! They have a variety of noodles, dumplings and sides. They also have a selection of traditional breakfast foods – Congee (Porridge), soybean milk and deep-fried dough sticks! Their menu is of authentic Chinese food that you won’t typically find in other Chinese restaurants.
I have pretty much tried most of their vegan options now!
SEASONAL VEGETABLE ROUGAMO [£5.00] (Vegan)
Light and delicious – generous amounts of sliced vegetables, herbs, tofu skin and mushroom between a flaky bun. Add some chilli sauce for more flavour.
COLD NOODLE WITH SESAME [£7.80] (Vegan)
A refreshing and satisfying dish! Silky smooth and chewy cold noodle (Liang Pi) with strips of cucumber, carrots, tofu and coriander, topped with this peanuts, chilli and this fragrant sesame sauce. Perfect for a hot summer day!
OIL SPLASHING NOODLES [£8.80]
Beansprouts, Pak Choi, dried chilli paste on a bed of flat broad noodles topped with this spicy soy sauce. A tasty noodle dish that was fresh and spicy, with crunch from the veggies.
TOMATO SOUP NOODLE [£7.80] (Vegan without Meat and Egg)
A hearty bowl of noodles with the sweet & savoury tomato soup and slurp-able hand-pulled noodles with a bite. It would’ve been nice if they added some mushrooms or tofu to substitute the meat and egg for me. I can only image it being even better topped with an egg and runny yolk.
DUMPLING WITH SOUR SOUP [£8.80] (Vegan)
*Vegan dumplings but sour soup is made of meat broth
The vegan dumplings had mushroom and veg filling in a nice dough. I do think there could be more filling in the dumplings for a better dumpling skin to filling ratio. The SOUP was really tasty! Sour and fragrant with a hint of spice, it definitely whet my appetite!
TRADITIONAL XI-AN COLD NOODLE [£7.80] (Vegan)
Another simple and light cold noodle served with sliced cucumbers, carrots and tofu, topped with peanuts, chilli flakes and coriander. It was lightly dressed with this soy sauce and oil sauce. Again, silky and chewy noodles (Liang Pi) that is simply delicious!
Whether you’re in the mood for hot or cold noodles, a hearty and authentic Chinese breakfast or even a snack, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND 1+1 Rougamo for their selection of fresh and tasty traditional Chinese food that is different to the Chinese food you typically come across in UK!
Authentic, chewy noodles. Price is very reasonable. The cold noodles (liangpi) is very nice. Would not bother with the 拌面, the handmade noodle without soup (N003, N004) as it's not very flavourful.
I have been to many Asian restaurant around the world and I’m very happy to say this is one of the best I have been to! Fresh incredible flavours with great noodle and meat, excellent menu with many options to choose from suitable for anybody! If you are looking for a nice meal you have found it! Stop searching and go to 1+1 Rougamo! AMAZING!!!
