Customer Review Summary
Opinions split sharply here. Some call the chow mein flavourless and dry, one describing a small £5.80 portion after a long wait, while another found the chicken and black bean sauce watery and tasteless. Others disagree entirely, praising the fried rice and crispy duck and calling prices the best locally. Cash-only payment also draws complaint from one diner who prefers card.

- Peter Wainwright
“The worst Chinese ever. Tasteless chicken chow menu, watery and tasteless chicken and black bean sauce, tasteless special chow mein. One star for fried rice and one star for crispy duck.”
- Daniel Jeal
“Average Chinese, they also ONLY accept cash (which decade are we in?). I never carry cash and pay with everything on my phone. There are better Chinese locally that accept card or food apps so I can't imagine I will be back. On the plus side there is easy parking.”
