Quick info
About Winchcombe Chinese Takeaway
Winchcombe Chinese Takeaway serves the Chinese takeaway trade from 17 North St in Cheltenham, opening in the evenings and closing on Tuesdays. Orders are placed as walk-ins at the counter, and payment is cash only, so it is worth arriving prepared. The kitchen works through the familiar range, with chow mein and sweet and sour chicken balls among the regular orders, the latter often taken with a portion of chips. Rice dishes run from plain to a special fried rice, while the noodle side includes Singapore noodles made with vermicelli. Beef appears in several forms, including crispy chilli beef and beef in black pepper sauce. Portions come out large and filling. Weekend evenings bring the busiest trade and a wait before collection, with orders handed over at the time quoted.

Customer Review Summary
Sweet and sour chicken balls come up most, with reviewers praising the massive portion and consistency across repeat visits. Close behind are the chow mein, Singapore noodles, crispy chilli beef and beef in black pepper sauce, along with a large special fried rice and chips one reviewer calls the best around. Diners repeatedly describe fast service, food ready on time and low prices, and several call it a no-fuss takeaway with well-sized portions. The picture is not uniformly positive. One reviewer found the bamboo shoots strangely flavoured and the duck tasted old, another received a chow mein covered in all sorts and tasteless, and a third says they paid for chicken balls and chips but were given only the chicken balls, then were told at the counter that only chicken balls had been paid for. One reviewer also describes the outside as old and in need of a paint job. Another simply calls the food freshly cooked, with a twenty minute wait on a busy Saturday night.

“Food was average. Crispy chilli beef was very good, as well as the rice and noodles. The bamboo shoots had a very strange taste, and the duck tasted old. Very reasonably priced and order was ready bang on time”
