Customer Review Summary
Sweet and sour chicken and the chippy side of the menu draw the most repeat praise, with long time regulars returning over years for both Chinese dishes and traditional chippy fare, and several describe fast service whether phoning in or walking in. Close behind, many single out the staff as friendly and the food as generously portioned and reasonably priced. But a real split runs through recent reviews: one describes scallops served undercooked and frozen in the middle after shrimp seemingly disappeared from dishes, another calls out salt and pepper chips so oversalted they were inedible, and a separate account reports fried rice looking days old with a bitter, salty curry sauce. One reviewer more seriously reports pink chicken, green pork and feeling unwell after eating, though chips from that same order were fine. A cash only complaint also surfaces alongside praise for competitive prices.

“Arguably the best chippy north of Liverpool. Family run for 15-20 years, all of which are Chinese who know how to cook traditional dishes some with an English twist. The only issue with this place is the staff who spend more time talking about literally anything than serving customers. You can expect to wait up to 5 minutes with no other customers in because they're busy talking about "skem gossip" Food is always banging, shame prices have to go up with inflation.”

“Sadly having to change what was a 5 star review held for a long time 😪 Shrimps have disappeared out of dishes they were always in previously, and the chippy side of things has declined rapidly. My scollops were no longer fresh battered potato, they're now more of a hash brown, taken out the freezer, not cooked for long enough so still frozen in the middle 😭 I've given them a few chances now but not any more....”
