About Sun Chinese Food

On Cornmarket in Thame, Sun Chinese Food is a Chinese takeaway where the cooking happens in view of the counter, so customers can watch dishes being prepared before collection. The menu runs through familiar takeaway staples, with Fried Chicken in Spicy Sauce and Tasty Char Siu among the recurring names, and a set menu for two is offered as a take-away option. Orders are placed and paid for in person, cash only, with cash points nearby for anyone arriving without it. There is no delivery service, so all orders are collected on a walk-in basis rather than booked ahead.

    “If I could give this a 0/5, I would. Service was incredibly slow. They said it would take "45" minutes... ended up being 1hr 30. When we were waiting in the shop one of the women workers presented themself as incompetent and unprofessional. When we finally received our order, 3 items were missing when we opened it. We ended up calling the manager, "EVA" who was very impatient and unreasonable. As we were not local, we asked for a bank transfer refund. She said, "No I will not do that".”

    “Chow mein had stuck and tasted burnt, lemon chicken was tasteless. It was OK but will be trying others. Crackers weren't crunchy, Egg rice was stodgy. Seaweed was awful”

    “Don't usually buy from the sun. The first Chinese takeaway I ate in Thame was from the sun over 20 yrs ago and was very ill. But I have to say the food was really delicious and no sickness at all! Will be back”

    “Doesn't look the best from outside, but it's my favourite Chinese in Thame. Food just tastes natural and fresh compared to others which are just greasy and salty. Shame they don't deliver or take card but there are cash points near by.”

    “Always good, always good value, always very quick. You see the food being prepared and cooked. I find in take-a-way's the staff are what you make them. I don't understand what can go wrong! The staff (old and new) Sun have always been great for me. The food is great quality. Nuff said!”

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers split sharply on Sun. The praise centers on fresh, natural-tasting food that several call their favourite Chinese takeaway in Thame, set against greasier, saltier rivals. One fan singles out the Tasty Char Siu and Fried Chicken in Spicy Sauce, and others mention that the food is quick and cooked in view. Close behind is value, described as better than other Thame takeaways, though one reviewer finds some dishes greasy. Recent critics describe a decline after what they take to be a new owner and chef. The char siu arrived burnt and without sauce, the chow mein stuck and tasted burnt, the lemon chicken was tasteless, the egg rice stodgy, and the crackers not crunchy. One reviewer reports a worker without a hair cap, and that a vegetarian spring roll order came as a single roll. Another waited far longer than quoted, found three items missing, and was refused a bank transfer refund by the manager.
