Rate My Takeaway Kitchen: State-of-the-art street food hall opens in Yorkshire in ‘a first of its kind foodie haven’ 

A landmark food hall is set to open in West Yorkshire as UK’s top takeaway reviewer chooses his home county to launch his biggest venture yet. 

Viral social media sensation Rate My Takeaway’s Danny Malin who clocks up millions of views each month with two million followers is launching his own food hall in Huddersfield. 

Danny from Barnsley who now lives between Leeds and Wakefield, said: “It’s been years in the pipeline and finally we can announce that the very first Rate My Takeaway Kitchen will open this summer.

“Expect trending treats, meet and greets and a banging atmosphere. 

“Me, the cameraman and t’old editor have hand picked some of the best street food vendors to sell their grub, all tried and tested by us.” 

Not only will there be vendors on a rotation but Rate My Takeaway Kitchen will have five permanent vendors which will be announced soon. They will also launch a first of a kind purpose-built social media booth where people can film their own reviews and capture content to be posted @ratemytakeawaynow on tiktok. 

Danny said: “It’s been an honour to see how our reviews have helped so many independents. 

“Often by us doing a video on their food it has helped to save their business or tripled their profit. 

“It’s tough running a food business in this climate but there’s a real buzz about the creative street food scene.” 

Danny who was recently a guest judge on BBC’s Young MasterChef said: “We’ll also be hosting a range of special events with some celebrity meet and greets lined up.

There’ll be a licensed bar on site and of course takeaway and delivery will be available. 

Danny added: “We’re chuffed to have Just Eat taking care of our deliveries from our incredible vendors.” 

The first Rate My Takeaway Kitchen will launch at The Packhorse Shopping Centre with more to come.  

Danny said: “We chose Huddersfield because we see great potential in The Packhorse and the town centre as a foodie destination. 

“It’s a thriving town with students, entrepreneurs and a range of visitors passing through the town centre. 

“We want to ensure people from near and far head to Huddersfield.

“It’s an exciting but busy time and we couldn’t have done it without the solid ten team at The Packhorse.”

Danny was crowned YouTube’s Breakthrough Creator of the Year 2022, he shot to fame on Rate My Takeaway channel after building his own following during lockdown with his funny Yorkshire rants. He has since presented on TV, hosted events and interviewed the likes of Strongman Eddie Hall on his hit youtube channel. 

While his popularity has skyrocketed since the pandemic, his fame may be new but his career in food is not. 

Since going viral online, Danny has appeared regularly on Channel 4, BBC radio and he runs his own radio shows on LDC Radio 97.8fm as well as having had hit singles at Christmas. 

Danny’s fans include comedian Jack Whitehall, DJ Chris Moyles and England footballer Trent Alexander-Arnold. 

Rate My Takeaway Kitchen is set to open in September.
