About Ben and Sue Chinese
On Sinclair St in Greenock, Ben and Sue Chinese is a family-run Chinese takeaway that cooks dishes to order from traditional family recipes, with a nod to Hakka heritage in the kitchen's approach. The menu runs from salt and chilli chicken wings and foo yung to an extensive vegan selection that includes four different soups, alongside gluten-free options and the Big Noodle Bowls. Curry sauce comes with a spicy kick option for those who want it. Orders are placed on a walk-in basis, with the app also used for ordering ahead. Delivery reaches Greenock, Port Glasgow and parts of Gourock, so the counter and the app both feed the same kitchen. No seating is offered on site, keeping the operation focused on cooking food fresh for collection and delivery rather than for dining in.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers repeatedly single out the vegan menu as the standout, with several praising the range of dishes and one noting four different soups, plus a hope that even the chips could be made vegan. Close behind, the foo yung and the salt and chilli chicken wings draw specific praise, alongside a gluten free option that one parent was delighted to find. Multiple diners describe unexpected extras arriving with orders, including vegan prawn crackers, cake, and a tub of dairy free ice cream sent with a handwritten apology note when an item was missing, gestures several call out by name-checking the kindness rather than the food alone. Portions are repeatedly called generous and food consistently arrives hot. One first time customer reports a markedly different experience, waiting past a promised 8pm to 9pm delivery window, calling at 9:15pm to find no update, and ultimately receiving a refund instead of the order.

“First time customer. I made an order and was told it would be delivered between 8pm-9pm. Ended up calling them at 9:15pm and was told they didnt know when the delivery driver would be back. Got a refund instead and was told they didnt know when the food would be delivered.”

“The food is consistently fresh, full of flavour, and always piping hot on arrival. Portions are generous and great value for money. Delivery is fast and reliable, and staff are always friendly and welcoming. Every dish we’ve tried has been spot on — you can really tell they take pride in their food. Easily the best Chinese takeaway around, wouldn’t order from anywhere else. 10/10 every time!”

“Thank you sooooo much for a fantastic meal tonight. My daughter was delighted she found a gluten free Chinese and the food was simply delicious and even more excited to find she had ice cream for desert. We will definitely be ordering again 5 star service from start to.finish and recommend 2 all. Curry sauce was best we have had for a long time and had a kick as we ordered spicy. We will definitely be back for more very soon.”
