About New Taste
New Taste is a Chinese takeaway at 84 Duke St in Barrow In Furness, with a menu built around boxed dishes for sharing. The munchbox is made to be split between several people, and the salt and pepper box sits alongside it for the same kind of order. The special curries come with king prawns and are served with rice and chips, so a single order covers the main and its sides. The takeaway works on a walk-in basis.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the boxes, with the munchbox described as great to share and the salt and pepper box praised for tender meat and lots of food. The special curry comes close behind. One traveller cites a good variety of meat and large king prawns alongside rice and chips, and another pairs it with a honey special likened to sweet and sour. The special fried rice and chop suey are also called delicious, and staff are described as nice. The main complaint comes from one reviewer who found the chicken watery, tasteless and not hot when the tub was opened. Another thought prices seemed a little pricey at first, then judged the portions very generous. One more wishes it stayed open later for those finishing work in the evening. Across the praise, the detail reviewers return to is generous portions, with the salt and pepper box arriving with lots of food.
