Customer Review Summary
The meal for one draws the most mentions, and the experience described splits sharply: one reviewer praises the crispy aromatic duck version as quick, arriving in fifteen minutes, and great value, while others report it incomplete or poor quality, missing king prawns from the salt and pepper box, or arriving with gristly beef and undercooked egg fried rice. Close behind, several reviewers note fast delivery to Stocksbridge in fifteen to twenty minutes with good portions, though one order over £40 reportedly took over two hours. A recurring complaint centers on counter interactions, with reviewers describing staff as rude or aggressive when questioned about missing prawns, card payment surcharges, or menu discrepancies, and one reviewer says a complaint about cold food that arrived in a pizza box, with the salt and pepper special dry and inedible, went without apology or refund. One reviewer also reports abdominal pain after eating there. Another reviewer's only request was more vegetarian options.

“We get takeaway from WSC regularly and it's exactly what you want from a chinese takaway. My only request would be more vegetarian options.”

“Ordered a couple of weeks ago in the takeaway as live close by. Asked if they do card payments and the miserable woman behind the counter grunted at me and threw a menu on the side, telling me to order online. Service was so poor, aggressive communication, if any, and the food was nothing special. Haven't been back since, and I'm surprised they still have enough customers to stay open.”
