Quick info
About Kwong Tung Chinese Takeaway
On Garthway Arcade in Northallerton, Kwong Tung Chinese Takeaway serves the Chinese takeaway menu by phone order, with payment taken over the phone rather than at a counter. There is no walk-in ordering, so the process runs entirely by telephone from order to payment. The takeaway opens Tuesday to Sunday, evenings only, and stays closed on Mondays. Home delivery reaches customers who order this way, alongside collection for those nearby. The format keeps the operation focused on phone orders rather than in-person browsing, with the evening hours set around the pattern of a single service window each open day.

Customer Review Summary
Salt and pepper chips and curry sauce once drew praise alongside friendly staff and quick delivery, but recent reviewers describe a sharp decline: incorrect orders, missing rice, and one calling the food "worse" over time. Others report undercooked, bland chow mein and "beige slop" needing home seasoning, with one diner returning their meal entirely. One loyal customer still praises a six-dish order as delivered well.

“I don’t usually leave reviews, but my experience at Kwong Tung was genuinely awful. I ordered a chow mein and it was honestly under cooked most bland, flavourless meals I’ve ever had. No seasoning, no depth—just completely lifeless food. It was so bad that I actually took it back, which is something I never do. When you’re paying for a takeaway, you at least expect something edible, but this was seriously disappointing. I won’t be going back, and I definitely wouldn’t recommend it avoid at all cost”

“First and last time I will order from this chinese takeaway. Have lived, worked and eaten all over the world and I believe this is the worst chinese food I have ever had. Disgusting food. Oh and the tall white male delivering the food didnt even offer me my change. Just handed me the bag and walked away.”

“I’ve been a loyal customer of The Famous Kwong Tung Chinese Takeaway for quite some time now, and they never fail to impress. This evening, I placed a large order consisting of six individual dishes, and once again, they delivered amazing …”

“Blandest beige slop I've ever seen. Had to raid the spice cupboard at home to add some flavour”

“Great little take away, staff are very friendly, great food, salt and pepper chips are spot on. Lovely curry sauce. With Covid-19 restrictions they are doing a great service. Phone orders only, pay over the phone. Home delivery on a Saturday evening was an hour which considering it took me over 20 minutes to get through on the phone I thought was great. UPDATE 1: Had a bit of a run with incorrect orders lately, chips instead of rice, or missing portions of rice all together. Disappointing. One star off and I’m going to take a break from using them. UPDATE 2 : The quality of the food has changed, no longer the go to place in Northallerton. Staying away for a bit. UPDATE3 :after a long break from here, we gave it another go. This place is just getting worse. Stay clear.”
