About Woo’s Takeaway
On Kings Rd in South Ham, Basingstoke, Woo's Takeaway is a Chinese takeaway that also serves fish and chips. The menu pairs Chinese dishes with the chip shop order, and the fish comes with chips and sometimes a pea fritter. A mixed starter platter sits on the menu, and set menus are available for those who want a spread of dishes in one order. Orders are collection only, and the shop does not deliver, so every meal is picked up from 53 Kings Rd. The shop is open daily, with lunch and evening sessions on most days and Sunday evenings only.

Customer Review Summary
Fish and chips draw the most mentions, and opinions on them split. One reviewer calls them the best in the area, and another praises a decent portion of fish with nicely crispy chips. A third finds the chips good but the batter soft and seemingly undercooked on fish with a pea fritter. One reviewer describes the fish as yesterday's leftovers cooked again, mushy and thrown in the bin. Beyond the fish, several describe friendly, helpful staff, fast service, orders that were spot on and piping hot, and a busy shop they take as a good sign. One long-standing customer calls the set menus very good value. Service is not universal praise, though. One reviewer found the staff rude and lacking basic manners, and another says staff hung up when they called to say how good the food was. One reviewer found the rib in the mix starter overcooked and dry. A couple mention generous portions, including a group who ordered six dishes in store and still had enough left over for a proper breakfast.

“Great food, fast service. Would highly recommend. All 6 dishes we ordered (in store) were well prepped, well cooked and well liked. Can't ask for more than that. Even enough left over for a proper breakfast. Highly recommend giving this place a try if you're close by and have not used before. You won't be disappointed!!”

“They serve a decent portion of fish with nicely crispy chips—definitely one of the better options for that. I haven’t tried their Chinese dishes in about ten years, so I can’t really comment on that side of the menu. However, the service leaves a lot to be desired. The staff come across as quite rude and lacking basic manners, which really affects the overall experience. Customer service matters, and unfortunately that’s where they fall short for me. Overall, I’d give it 3 stars.”
