Quick info
About China Garden
China Garden is a takeaway in Kempshott, Basingstoke, set beside a Tesco Express at 5 Buckingham Ct. It runs a fish and chip menu and a Chinese menu under one roof, so a single order can cover both cuisines. Chicken chow mein is on the Chinese side, and chips with curry sauce are on the menu for anyone who wants a chip-shop order with a Chinese-takeaway sauce. Tofu dishes give vegetarian customers something to order.

Customer Review Summary
Chips draw the most comment, and reviewers split sharply on them. One calls the fish and chips really tasty and the only place they use, while several others describe chips that were freezing, two days old or thrown away, alongside a greasy pancake roll, a spring roll full of grease and curry sauce like glue. A long-time customer says the chips now taste a day or two old and remembers it as the best Chinese takeaway in town. On the Chinese side, happy reviewers praise generous portions, a wide choice of dishes and tofu dishes for vegetarians, with an online request for no mushrooms honoured. Others report beef in green pepper and black bean sauce that was far too salty and a chicken and mushroom pie cold on the bottom. A few note it gets busy, with all the seats sometimes taken, and one says the order was ready by the time they had finished a quick shop at the neighbouring Tesco.

“Had Chinese food from China garden since I went to school with Micheal’s kids in black dam, 40 odd years…..Past few times we have been chips taste a day or two old. It’s sad as it used to be the best Chinese takeaway in town. I hope it gets better.”
