Quick info
About Parkway Chinese
Parkway Chinese is a Chinese takeaway at Unit 2 in Middlesbrough, taking orders by phone as well as in person. The menu runs through familiar takeaway staples, with lemon chicken, special chow mein, and salt and pepper chicken alongside sweet and sour chicken and beef in black bean sauce. Chicken balls in batter come with curry sauce, and prawn crackers and chips are common additions to an order. House special chow mein and house special curry sit among the more substantial plates, while chicken vermicelli noodles and bean sprouts chow mein round out the lighter options. Orders can be collected on a walk-in basis or brought out by a delivery driver. There is no seating on site, with the operation built around collection and delivery rather than dining in.

Customer Review Summary
Chips draw the most attention, with several reviewers calling them some of the best they've had from a Chinese takeaway, fresh rather than dry, while others describe the opposite experience, chips arriving rock hard and seemingly reheated from the day before. Chow mein comes up almost as often, praised for being seasoned right and light, alongside dishes like salt and pepper chicken and chicken vermicelli noodles that one repeat customer recommends, and beef in black bean sauce and sweet and sour chicken that arrived hot and generous with meat for another. Set against this is a recurring complaint about thin portions and mistakes: one diner counted only seven slices of chicken and sparse meat across a lemon chicken and special fried rice order, another received shredded beef in black bean sauce with no black bean sauce at all, and a third had an incorrect phone order met with no apology, just a swap after an hour's wait. One reviewer describes pork with curry arriving like leather and binned entirely.

“Ordered lemon chicken , special chow mein and special fried rice tonight costing £22 approx , staff pleasant but the food tasted nice except for lack of meat . The lemon chicken had 7 slices of chicken and over 14 pieces of diced pineapple , the chow mein had a couple of king prawns and a couple of pork slices and small I mean small pieces of slimy chicken again the special fried rice had a distinct lack of meat but the rice was nice . All in all I will not be using again as still hungry now , it is a shame because what was there tasted good .”

“Been starving all day so I ordered shredded beef in black been sauce with salt and pepper chips. When it came it was the beef in vegetables but no black bean sauce (which is the best bit). Ruined my day. Thanks alot.”

“Absolutely fuming!! That this takeaway hasn't got 5 star reviews. Never have i tasted a better chinese in the whole of England. With 30+ orders of the years, I've never been disappointed. The consistency of quality food, customer service, prices can't be matched. Don't think twice about ordering from here. My recommendation, salt and pepper chicken and chicken vermicelli noodles (no veg) cannot be beaten. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
