About Peking City

On Covingham Drive in Swindon, Peking City is a Chinese takeaway with no seating, serving orders for collection or delivery. Alongside the Chinese menu it runs a standard chippy line, so salt and pepper chicken, crispy chilli beef, and chow mein sit next to spicy chips and jumbo sausages. Sweet and sour sauce, curry sauce, seaweed, and pancake rolls round out the list. Food is cooked to order, with preparation visible from the counter. Orders can be placed in-shop or through Just Eat and Deliveroo, and the shop takes walk-ins rather than reservations. In-shop waits for orders can run long at busier times.

    “Definitely gone down hill. Ordered Chinese watered down sweet and sour sauce hardly any chicken and the chicken looked like it was either reheated or very overcooked . Overall appearance wasn't at all good . Pancake rolls were hard. Let's just say i won't be going back.”

Customer Review Summary

Regulars praise the Chinese food as hot, tasty and cooked to order, with the curry sauce, sweet and sour sauce and spicy chips singled out, and the fish and chips also get good words. Staff are described as friendly and helpful, one reviewer likes watching the food being prepared, and another says the place needs a makeover. Against that, a few long-time customers say standards have slipped. They describe watered-down sweet and sour sauce with little chicken, salt and pepper chicken that is mostly onions, crispy chilli beef that arrives brown and without sauce, Hong Kong pork that is mostly pineapple and onion, and hard pancake rolls. Long waits in the shop are also reported, put down to a rush of delivery app orders. Orders sometimes go out wrong as well: one customer had to go back for two missing jumbo sausages, and a beef chow mein arrived cold with bean sprouts despite a request for none.
