“ Currently on holiday and found this place by chance! Best Chinese I’ve had in a long time! Staff are amazing and so friendly and polite! Very honest with portion sizes too, me and my daughters were sharing, I ordered 2 of the same meal and they immediately said I’d just have one for now as it’s fairly big, we didn’t finish one portion because we had starters as well which are not little either! So glad we didn’t order the second! Hopefully will be able to fit a second visit in before we head back home the fact it’s in a boozer is just weird but it totally works brilliantly! ”
“ Amazing food great delivery time. Will order again. ”
“ Love this restaurant. Have only ever had take away but it's always excellent and dishes are varied and all taste different. One of the best Chinese takeaways we've had. ”
“ My partner I had been out for a lovely event close by and although not local stumbled across this restaurant almost describe it as an english pub with a Chinese twist. We on the later part of the night yet staff accommodated us well and welcoming. Allowed to eat our food there even though they were on the verge of closing for the night. They engaged in small talk and safety and wellbeing for the night when we left. Highly recommended ”
