Customer Review Summary

New China Cottage draws repeat praise for food described as fresh and delicious, with the duck curry and Special Fried Rice singled out as standout orders, and one large birthday order for more than ten people arriving piping hot. Staff get recurring mentions too, from the person who answers the phone to a counter server who recommended dishes. But a recurring complaint centers on inconsistency: one long-time customer found the chicken balls oddly small and the meal overly spicy under what they suspected was a new chef, while another reviewer received kung po chicken and chicken balls cold and undercooked, and a third got the wrong order entirely, chicken in sweet sauce instead of the sweet and sour Hong Kong prawns requested, with an overly salty curry sauce. Price also draws grumbling, with one reviewer calling a fifty pound order for two a rip off and another balking at the cost of rice compared to homemade portions.

    “Got the kung poo chicken, chicken balls, mixed vegetables and a portion of chips. Both the kung poo chicken and chicken balls cold and undercooked red on the inside the food took over 45 minutes to come me and the kids started to lose are …”

    “Five stars for owner’s responses. Haven’t laughed this hard in ages. The food is just fine. Get the Chicken Chinese Style (£6.80) but avoid buying rice. For £3.80 (!) you can make 20 servings at home. …”

  • Jacqui Pringle
    “I’ve been using china cottage since 1997 and today’s meal was not the usual delicious meal 😢? New people or ? New chef but the chicken balls were the size of nuggets, and everything was so spicy! Didn’t even enjoy the smoked chicken I normally rave about! And very expensive! I will probably use again in the future just in case it’s a one off! But dissatisfied tonight”
