Quick info
About Peking Garden
Peking Garden is a Chinese takeaway in Coleraine, at 3 Waterside, serving Cantonese-style food over the counter. The owner recognises regulars' orders as they walk in. The menu pairs curry with chips, and beef and chicken curry are both among the choices. Spring rolls sit alongside them, and the chop suey comes in a sauce with a strong vinegar taste. Orders can also be placed by phone, for anyone who would rather not wait at the counter.

Customer Review Summary
The curry is the most frequent draw. Several reviewers call it the best curry in town, and many name the shop the best Chinese locally, citing great value and quick delivery that arrived at the promised time. One describes the cooking as more Cantonese in style, and another says the chopsuey sauce has a strong vinegar taste and that anyone who dislikes that should avoid it. Staff on the phone, at the counter and on delivery are called polite and pleasant. Two reviewers are sharply critical. One calls the shop very dirty, with smelly walls and floors and decor unchanged since the 70s or 80s, and found the spring rolls bland, the chips soggy and tasteless, and the curry lacking flavour. The other found the beef and chicken curry heavy on five spice, with tough, small-diced beef, precooked chicken pieces and cheap frozen chips. Regulars add that the counter already knows their order the moment they walk in.

“Poor, not for me, could taste 5 spice on the Beef & Chicken curry. Beef was small dice and quite tough, chicken was precooked diced portions like you get out of Tesco. Service was very quick and the guy at the counter was very pleasant. Coleraine generally is very poor for Chinese. Chips were the cheapest frozen kind. Still looking hopefully for a decent Chinese meal. Have tried all by now, only Yoko to go.”
