  “Very small place can sit around 12 at a squeeze. I think most get takeaway. They are famous for their fried pork chop with curry sauce. Its pretty good but probably not worth travelling for. If you get a large you get an extra slice of meat. I preferred their signature curry over the japanese style curry Update.. returned again recently, still really busy. Make sure you book a table, I feel the pork chop i had this time was not as good it was thinner and batter slightly thicker too. Hoping its just a blip and not the norm”

  “After a day at comic con, we wanted a nice restaurant nearby to get a quick bite, This was such an amazing surprise place, completely picked at random and we almost didn't go inside because we thought it was small and maybe it's only takeaway. Have I ever been so glad to be so wrong. This hole in the wall totally authentic curry house is the best curry I've ever had. The atmosphere there staff and the food portions, there is a reason the reviews are that high and it's honestly that good! Everything was good even the fair prices. I'll definitely be back for more. Thank you for an amazing meal!”

  “Popchop really captures that authentic Hong Kong cha chaan teng feel. The place is always busy and full of energy—you can tell it’s popular the moment you walk in. It’s not one of those fast-turnover spots though, so don’t expect a super quick in-and-out experience. The food stays true to Hong Kong style—simple, familiar, and done properly without trying to overcomplicate things. It feels genuine, which is hard to find. One thing to note: since it gets quite busy, you might need to wait a bit for your order to be ready. But honestly, that’s part of the experience—very much like Hong Kong, where good food is worth a little patience.”

  “My family and I came over for dinner last night. The signature curry was mouthwatering and nostalgic. My dad kept yapping about how he used to work near the HK 新景園 about 20 years ago, and he was exhilarated regarding how he could still taste the same curry here. Reasonable price and nice staff. The seating area is quite small here, so you might want to book your place beforehand to secure your place. Strongly recommend the egg waffle, esp the peanut butter one ;) And thank you for giving us a free waffle after meal, it was truly unexpected.🫶”

  “. As of 04/01/2026 (Lunch) Taste：7️⃣ Environment：6️⃣ Seating：6️⃣ Service：7️⃣ Portion size：5️⃣ Value of money：6️⃣ *on a scale of ten Overall Score：62 / 100 Average cost per person：£14.98 💖>👍🏻>🤙🏻>👌🏻>✋🏻>👎🏻 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ The signature curry pork chop rice stands out with its well-layered curry flavours and a gentle hint of spiciness, making it very appetising. The sweetcorn pork chop rice carries a slight Campbell’s soup-like note, but is still enjoyable overall. Paired with a cup of Hong Kong-style milk tea or lemon tea, the average spend is around £15 per person, offering excellent value for money and well worth a return visit. 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷 🤙🏻Sweet Corn Sauce Pork Chop with Rice 👍🏻Signature Curry Pork Chop with Rice 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜”

  “Curry Pork Chop Rice – The curry sauce is rich and flavorful. The pork chop is very crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Fried Egg and Scallion Oil Chicken Chop Rice – The scallion oil and soy sauce are wonderfully fragrant, with just the right balance of salty and sweet. The chicken chop is well-marinated and tasty without being overpowering. Egg Waffles (Gai Daan Jai) – Crispy on the outside and soft inside. Even after sitting for a while and cooling down, they still stay crispy. Hong Kong–Style Lemon Tea – It has that authentic Hong Kong café (cha chaan teng) taste. Extra notes: If you plan to go, remember to book a table—there aren’t many seats, but the staff are very nice. There’s free parking available in the open area opposite the shop.”

  “Crispy and juicy fried pork chop and fried chicken and Jasmine rice with Hong Kong Style curry sauce. Must try if you are in the city. Price reasonable and nice staff. If want to dine-in, better to make reservation. Plenty of parking lots opposite to the curry house.”

  “If you’re going to Manchester, you have to visit Popchop Curry House! They open at 5pm, but we only managed to get the last two plates of pork chop rice when we arrived at 7pm – everything sells out if you’re late, so intense! They mentioned you can call ahead to place an order if needed. The pork chops are pan-fried to a crispy perfection, and the curry is aromatic with a good spice kick. Tastes amazing! The quality is still as high as ever, with that classic Hong Kong curry flavor. Since we had kids with us who couldn’t handle the spicy curry, they kindly provided an extra bowl of curry sauce on the side. We also ordered a plate of scallion oil chicken with fried egg rice, and the chicken was just as delicious!”
