Quick info
About Golden Star
Golden Star is a Chinese takeaway on Seventh Avenue in Gloucester that also runs an English chip-shop line from the same counter, so customers can order sweet and sour dishes alongside chippy-style chips, ribs and chips, and set meals built around egg fried rice or chicken fried rice. The kitchen serves during extended late hours, and delivery covers the surrounding streets in addition to collection. It operates as a walk-in, with orders placed at the counter. The menu brings together Chinese staples and chip-shop classics under one roof, giving the shop a dual identity that reflects the mixed takeout habits of the neighbourhood.

“If I could of given no stars I would. Had fish and chips last night ,absolutely horrible! The fish was soggy and the chips were hard and overcooked. How they have the cheek to charge £24 is disgraceful. Never again.”

“Convient, open good hours, tasty English or Chinese takeaway and very good value.”

“Always friendly service and excellent food. Update March 2025. The above comment was part of my previous 5 star review. However, although I offered to pay extra, I wasn't allowed to upgrade my egg fried rice in a set meal to a chicken fried rice. They were still happy to take full price though for the set meal (without the egg fried rice) and the chicken fried rice. Disappointing policy and unfortunately will no longer be my weekly regular I'm afraid.”
