Quick info
About Golden Palace
Golden Palace is a Chinese takeaway on Clapgate Lane in Ipswich, working to a straightforward collection and evening service pattern. The kitchen cooks Chinese dishes to order, with food prepared for customers to carry out rather than eat in. Opening runs from Tuesday through to Sunday, with Mondays closed, so orders are placed in the evenings only. Payment is taken in cash, which is worth knowing before a visit, as no card is accepted at the counter. Orders are handled directly at the shop, without a reservation system, so customers arrive, order and wait for the food to be cooked.

Customer Review Summary
Generous portions are what reviewers raise most, described again and again as big, filling servings that several say beat what they had found elsewhere, including one visitor who compared a set meal for one favourably to takeaways in Felixstowe. Close behind is the cooking itself, repeatedly called flavoursome and, in two accounts, noticeably not greasy, with one diner singling out the satay as excellent. Several families describe working through a rotating list of dishes, one ordering around eleven at a time to keep trying something new, and multiple reviewers call it the best Chinese they have found in Ipswich or in the area. The counter staff draw warm mentions too: one customer with a shrimp allergy describes the person taking the order checking and double checking every dish. Several say outright that they would recommend it, and one notes only a wish that delivery were offered, alongside another who mentions free little treats handed over with the order.
