Customer Review Summary
Diners consistently praise the generous portions and strong flavours, with the BBQ spare ribs, chips, and spring rolls singled out as standouts. One reviewer calls the chips the best they have had in ages, golden and crispy on the outside and fluffy within, while another says the food is packed full of flavour and the price fantastic for what you get. The staff come across as friendly and efficient, with several noting that the team works hard and makes a point of greeting or saying goodbye. A few long-time customers raise a recurring concern: one who has visited for 30 years says the food used to be very consistent and feels that post-lockdown the business is trying to recoup losses at customers' expense, and another orders chicken and mushroom that arrives with thin, slimy chicken slices, congealed rice, and a tasteless finish. Despite that, most return again and again, with one reviewer willing to drive 20 minutes just for the chips.

“Ordered chicken and mushroom it was awful the chicken was thin cut slices and had slimey texture the rice congealed overall it was tasteless and overpriced”

“Best portion of chips I've had in ages. Was working nearby and fancied something hot to eat saw this place and ordered some chips. Was served instantly, chips were beautiful, golden colour, crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, just perfect. I'd do the 20 minite drive to get them again!”
- Simon
“Great Chinese chippy in the village. Large variety of Chinese meals. Don't be going for fish with your chips though or a steak pie cos they don't do them but you can still get a sausage!”
- Caleb Ingham
