Quick info
About Jak's Chinese
On Cleveland Gardens in Wallsend, Jak's Chinese is a Chinese takeaway serving the evening trade only. The kitchen works from the standard Chinese takeaway range, prepared to order for collection. There is no reservation system, and customers walk in to place orders at the counter. The shop runs evenings throughout the week but stays closed on Tuesdays, so the rest of the week covers the schedule. This pattern suits anyone planning a collection after work or in the evening, since there is no midday service to work around. The straightforward, walk-in setup keeps the format simple for regulars picking up food on their way home.

Weekly regulars return for the crispy chilly beef and describe the food as fantastic, with one calling the staff friendly. Others report inconsistency: one order arrived cold and needed reheating, another had stale chips and mushy rice, and one described an oily Thai sauce with too much garlic. A couple mention ordering via the website to save money.

“Food was absolutely delicious but had to heat it up as cold . Definitely need to do something about transporting food”

“Great food. Order on the website rather than just eat and you'll save a lot of money!”
- Louise McDonald
“We’ve ordered here many times and tonight was so disappointing. The Thai sauce which orders previously is delicious was overly oily and way too much garlic. No theme to the meal. Red sugary garlic sauce in boiled chicken. Sadly went in the bin.”
- Gillian Brown
“We order from Jaks once a week. Staff are always friendly and the food is fantastic. Sometimes I forget they're shut on a Tuesday, but I guess they need a day off - I'm just gutted if I'm hungry. 🤣 Recommended. …”

“First timer, probably my last as I'm not a regular. Chips were stale, rice was overcooked/mushy meanwhile the food came early and was hot. The Crispy chilly beef was nice. Thanks”
