About Lucky Dragon
On Park Lane in Macclesfield, Lucky Dragon serves Chinese food for collection with no reservations needed, just walk in and order. Quarter duck pancakes come with the duck left on the bone rather than pre-shredded, a different approach to a familiar dish. The menu also runs to set meals for one and two, alongside egg fried rice and soft noodles. Vegan orders can be accommodated, with seaweed made without fish powder and fried rice prepared without egg. Portions are generous enough that leftovers are common after a meal.

Customer Review Summary
Diners repeatedly return for the set meal for one and meal for two, calling the portions generous and the food hot on arrival, with several naming duck pancakes, soft noodles, and starter selections as standouts. Close behind, reviewers highlight that the kitchen accommodates dietary needs, cooking fried rice without egg and seaweed without fish powder for a vegan diner, and catering to a nut allergy for another. But a recurring complaint centers on inconsistency: one reviewer's combination box arrived with overly salty seaweed and bland garlic and chilli beef, while chilli chips ordered mild came back too spicy and had to be thrown out. A separate reviewer's quarter duck came still on the bone despite being ordered shredded, and after a replacement was sent, they found a bone and described the meat as dry; that reviewer also said the exchange with staff felt rude. Despite these accounts, most describe the food as tasty and the service as accommodating, with staff swapping dishes or ingredients on request.

“I love this place, easily the best chinese takeaway in Macc! I particularly love how accommodating they are to make my food Vegan. They're happy to cook me Fried Rice without the Egg and Seaweed without the Fish powder. Not many places will do this and I really appreciate it! The Menu is huge and the food so tasty, bursting with flavour! I honestly don't think it can be beaten! Give it a try, you won't be disappointed. Huge portions too!”

“For price, quality and speed of service it has to be the best in Macc. Polite, friendly and accommodating staff. Every time I place an order it's literally bagged and ready to go as soon as I walk through the door and still been piping hot when I've got it home👌 Recently I've been trying the set meal for one, which the happily change the main dish for so I can explore different dishes and not once have I been disappointed, very filling, delicious and a bargain 😋 (*heads up they only accept cash) Definitely recommend 💯”

“Really disappointing ! Lucky dragon was one of the best takeaways in Macc but it’s gone down hill now, sadly. I ordered from here for a birthday treat for myself and a friend, we were super disappointed. We ordered the combination box for two which was lovely, apart from the seaweed was almost inedible my friend said it was very salty. I got an egg fried rice and soft noodles which was quite good but this shouldn’t have been the best dish’s out of the meal. This where it gets very disappointing, the salt and pepper chilli chips were asked to be not too spicy but they were far too spicy so we had to bin them. I got the beef in garlic and chilli, thinking that’s what they named their crispy chilli beef (a lot of places don’t call it by its actual name) and it wasn’t what I expected, I tried it and there was no flavour at all to the sauce, the beef was tender and that was the only good thing. The Chinese style sauce chicken dish wasn’t very nice at all, it was like a sweet and sour sauce but not the usual kind.”
