Soup Co | Malatang Hot Pot Noodles 麻辣烫

The food is good to the point where I’ve come here around 4 times. There’s a lot of options which is great and they offer a variety of flavours. It is more expensive than what you’d expect but you can always measure them before you checkout to make sure you’re not accidentally spending £30+ per portion. One thing I noticed first three times was no matter how little I put in I always couldn’t finish it - the portion sizes seemed so big but you can always ask to take it away. One nice thing you can do (which I did last visit) is fill up one bowl with different ingredients and ask for two or three smaller bowls which ends up amounting to 12£ per person and a portion size that’s perfect! I’d heavily recommend

The place is beautiful and service was great, everyone super polite.

The whole idea of adding what you prefer is amazing, the only problem is the food, so that’s a big problem :(

Duck was not good, the meat was too fatty, and the broth was just okay. I have to mention I am not really sure about the higiene in the way everything is stored tbh 😬

I feel like this place has a lot of potential but food standards need to be higher, the idea is great but taste is between bad and average.

The food was good, especially the soup flavor, which I really enjoyed. However, I’d like to share some constructive feedback: I found the environment to be a bit unclean, and I felt that the staff could be more trained.

During my visit, I noticed that the person who seemed to be in charge at the counter was vaping inside the restaurant, which is not appropriate for a dining space. Additionally, she appeared to be talking with family members at one of the tables (which I don’t mind), but the conversation was quite loud, which affected the overall atmosphere.

I truly believe that with a few adjustments in these areas, the restaurant has great potential to stand out even more.

We had such a fun time putting together our very own hot pot bowls! There’s a wide variety of ingredients available to choose from. There are scales to weigh your bowl as you go - I highly recommend doing this because it’s so easy to rack up the bill without realising!

Food was super tasty once cooked - I went with the signature spicy soup which I recommend!

I went here with my sister and I can say it was absolutely amazing!!! The lady owner was so sweet and kind, explained us in how it works! I honestly loved the experience, and so did my sister. We've never had hot pot before but with the wide range of halal options I can say it definitely didn't disappoint! Another thing, they were super attentive, restocked ingredients when they were low and cleaned tables as soon as customers left!  We will definitely be back again and I'll definitely capture the experience a lot more next time! Thank you!!
