About Silver River
Silver River is a family-run Chinese takeaway and fish-and-chip shop at 41 Eastham Village Rd in Wirral, so one counter covers both Chinese dishes and the chippy menu. The Chinese side includes a set meal for one, built around sweet and sour chicken balls, chicken fried rice and spring rolls, with the sweet and sour sauce packed in a separate container. On the chippy side, the fish dinner comes with peas and gravy. Orders are placed at the counter. The shop is open every day except Tuesday.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often describe Silver River as a family-run Chinese and chip shop in one, and the set meal for one draws the most praise, with sweet and sour chicken balls, chicken fried rice and spring rolls in a big portion. A fish dinner with peas and gravy is called excellent, and a few mention good value and returning several times in a few weeks. Consistency is the recurring complaint. Two reviewers found the sweet and sour sauce stone cold at home, one adding that it tasted of pure vinegar and that the king prawn batter was still raw inside. Another describes a great meal followed a week later by flavourless meat, and one reviewer reports hair in the food and burnt-tasting rice. The closing detail is the cold sweet and sour sauce, which one customer chose not to take back rather than drive again.

“Honestly i moved away from bromborough for 11 years i was so happy to see silver river still going strong and still in buisness. I got the set meal deal for 1 the food to me was that good it brought overwhelming g emotion and a little tear to my eye. Every little bit of the meal deal was fully enjoyed the portion sizes are great value and every dish they sell here is absolutely amazing. I carnt wait for my next visit”
