About Yiu's Garden
On Birchfield Road East in the Abington area of Northampton, Yiu's Garden is a takeout restaurant working on a collection basis, with orders placed at the counter or called through by phone ahead of the pickup time. The menu runs to eleven dishes, among them Chicken Chow Mein, egg fried rice and sweet and sour king prawn battered balls, with bean sprouts, rice and prawn crackers on the side. Portions come out large, with pork balls counted by the dozen and prawn crackers by the bagful. There is no booking, so ordering happens on a walk-in footing, and calling first helps at the busier stretches of the evening. Card payment is accepted at collection. The kitchen opens daily.

Customer Review Summary
The complaints are specific. One longtime regular says the last order arrived reheated, as if from the night before. Another reports chicken that was not cooked properly on food that seemed rushed for a special occasion. A third says three phone calls went unanswered, with an answering machine once and the line put down twice. One reviewer found portions oversized, naming 12 pork balls and a bag of several dozen prawn crackers for a single person.

“Best chinese takeaway in Northampton, fresh food always cooked on time & ready for collection without having to wait ages cant get any better”
- Mark Dempsey
“Was struggling to find a decent Chinese takeaway in the Abington area of town. My search is over. Lovely food, couldn't fault any of the dishes we ordered and you can pay by card. Will definitely be back. Highly recommended.”
- Peter Marsh
“They should ask if the meal is just for one person. 12 pork balls for example is a bit much for one person. A bag containing several dozen prawn crackers is a lot for one - a dozen would be a lot. As for bean sprouts and rice, a container half the size would.”
- Andreevich
“Amazing place, excellent service, clean and tidy place, kind and respectful staff, delicious food and not much for waiting time . Totally recommend”
