About Full House
Full House is a Chinese takeaway on South St in Cockermouth, at number 14A. The menu runs from salt and pepper ribs to Singapore chow mein, and a set meal for 2 people covers a shared order. Payment is cash only, with bank transfer also accepted, so customers should plan how they will pay before they order. Vegetarian options sit on the menu alongside the meat dishes, which gives mixed groups a way to order from one place.

Customer Review Summary
Beef dishes come up most, with reviewers singling out the crispy shredded beef, beef with black pepper and beef curry, alongside hot and sour soup, sweet and sour chicken, salt and pepper chips and salt and pepper ribs. Close behind are generous portions and fresh, hot food that several call reasonably priced. A few also mention the vegetarian options and home delivery, and positive reviewers describe friendly staff and quick collection. The complaints are specific, though. Two reviewers report long waits that ran well past what they were quoted, one says the order arrived with food missing, and another says the bill came out higher than the menu prices. One found the Singapore chow mein a thick, soggy mess, even though the ribs were excellent, while another praises the chow mein. One set meal for two, with beef curry and duck in orange sauce, was said to be enough for three or four people.

“Best Chinese takeaway in Cockermouth We’ve ordered from Full House several times and it’s consistently excellent. The food is always fresh, hot and full of flavour, with generous portions that offer great value for money. Favourites include the crispy shredded beef, sweet & sour chicken, salt & pepper chips and the chow mein – all highly recommended. Staff are friendly and efficient, and the turnaround time is quick even when it’s busy. A reliable local favourite for a proper Friday night takeaway. Highly recommended!”

“Excellent food, took about 20 minutes to prepare food. It only takes cash, or a bank transfer for payment!”

“Our go-to place for a takeaway whenever we visit Cockermouth. Tasty, quality and reasonably priced food with generous portions. Recommended.”

“Food was decent, but they charged us £12 extra than what was on their menu. 1 hour wait for food, but the food was hot. Cash only and rip you off on the food. Avoid until they fix their prices, go elsewhere.”
- David
“Salt n pepper ribs were excellent - Singapore chow mein was a thick soggy mess. I would not return here and therefore I do not recommend this establishment. This experience and review is 100% accurate and genuine.”
