About Peony

Peony is a Chinese takeaway on High St in Southampton, operating on a delivery model with orders placed by phone or through the restaurant's own website. The menu runs through familiar staples such as spring rolls, satay chicken, and sweet and sour chicken Hong Kong style, alongside chicken chow mein, egg fried rice, chicken curry, and Singapore noodles or vermicelli. Payment is cash only when ordering, whether by phone or online. The counter takes walk-ins rather than reservations. Delivery times shift with demand, running quicker on quieter nights and stretching longer during busy periods such as weekend evenings.

    “This is our go to Chinese takeaway. Food is always lovely. On a busy night, expect it to take longer 🤔 Review when ordered on valentine's night and it took longer, err, yes. Normally they deliver on a good time. The food has always been really good, and delivery sooner than predicted. Will always order out Chinese from here ❤️”

    “Have used The Peony on & off for a few years, but after tonight, never again. Ordered at 1735, arrived at 1926! Sadly a majority of tge food was very cool, the chicken chow mein was loaded with bean sprouts and onions, and only 7 tiny strips of chicken, but overrun with salt/msg. The prawn crackers tasted reheated from a previous service, a sad demise from a once good takeaway”

Customer Review Summary

Singapore noodles and satay chicken are the dishes reviewers name most warmly, one calling the noodles the best and another praising a very generous satay portion with perfect texture. Several describe Peony as their go-to Chinese takeaway, with food that is tasty and fresh and portions big enough for leftovers the next day. Chilli shredded crispy beef, sweet and sour chicken Hong Kong style and large spring rolls turn up in one order that arrived piping hot and still crispy. Delivery is often called quick and ahead of prediction, though busy nights such as Valentine's and Saturdays slow it down. The complaints are specific. One reviewer waited more than two hours and felt the restaurant saw that as acceptable. Another received mostly cool food, a chicken chow mein heavy on bean sprouts and onions with only a few strips of chicken, and prawn crackers that tasted reheated. A third found the chips reheated and the curry less hot than hoped, though the salt and chilli squid was spicy.
