Quick info
About Madeley Chinese takeaway
Madeley Chinese takeaway serves Chinese food from 35 High St in Telford, and every order is collected from the shop rather than delivered. Customers order at the counter and pay the cashier in cash, since cards and online payment are not accepted, so it helps to arrive with notes or coins. The kitchen cooks chicken chow mein among its Chinese dishes. The shop opens in the evenings only, from Tuesday to Sunday, and closes on Mondays.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers are split, but most praise the food and the friendly staff, with several describing it as tasty, hot and well cooked, and a few mentioning good portion sizes. Two long-standing customers say they have been coming for 30 years or more, and one calls it the best of the Chinese places tried around Telford. The most repeated complaint is accuracy and consistency. One reviewer says they have had to go back multiple times to correct orders with missing items, and cites a chicken chow mein with no noodles. Another reports a small, incomplete order and says staff implied the customer was lying when they called to complain. A third found the chicken chow mein dry, along with burnt onion rings and spring rolls that were not tasty. One reviewer calls the cashier rude. Paying is a second sticking point: two reviewers were caught out because it is cash only, and one says that keeps them from ordering, so they cross the road for an Indian instead. One returning customer still says the food is as expected and reasonable compared with other restaurants nearby.
