About New Man Lung
On Beaconsfield St in Rossendale, New Man Lung serves as a fish and chips takeaway with a menu that also covers Chinese dishes alongside the chippy standards. Fish and chips sits next to sweet and sour, chow mein, and salt and pepper chips, with spring rolls, prawn crackers, and ribs rounding out the counter list. Recurring orders include the chicken omelette and chips, served as a large portion, and won tons, while number 249, a beansprout side, comes up as a popular choice. Payment is cash only, and the shop runs on a walk-in basis with no reservations taken. Orders can be collected or delivered, with delivery free above a certain spend.

Customer Review Summary
Salt and pepper chips draw the most consistent praise, described by reviewers as excellent even though they admit the dish does not look pretty, and several reviewers call the fish and chips side reliably good. Close behind, diners repeatedly single out the chow mein, sweet and sour, and won tons, with one longtime customer saying they travel from Wigan for the won tons and another noting the kitchen will vary dishes to suit a diner's taste and often throws in free spring rolls or prawn crackers. Portions are described as generous, food arriving fresh and piping hot even on delivery, and more than one reviewer calls it the best Chinese in the area. Against that, a recurring complaint from a handful of reviewers describes food as heavily battered with little meat, prawn crackers gone hard, and dishes tasting dry or tasteless, and one reviewer reports finding a black hair in their rice after spending money there and says they will not return. One diner also notes the shop is cash only, which proved awkward in a town without a cash machine.

“Went here as Lucky Panda was closed. Really disappointed, spent £30 - watery sauces, very little taste and to top it off we found a black hair in the rice! Won’t be returning!”

“horrible food, all deep fried but not advertised to be. tasteless, no meat on the ribs, which were so heavily battered that you had no idea where the meat was. Pulled several apart to find only grisle and batter. avoid as high priced rubbish food. it all went in the bin”
