Been ordering from here for 7 years and never had an issue. Portions really generous and massive menu choice. Always had tasty food. Staff are very friendly and happy to adjust items on the menu if you ask. I prefer to put my order through via phone to save on the wait time as it can get busy. Only negatives are that it's cash only and they don't deliver

I used to go to a chippy at this location many years ago and so it was more out of nostalgia than high expectations that I visited again. That and the fact that most chip shops in Droylsden seem to be closed, either permanently or because it was Tuesday night. To my delight the fish and chips were superb and the service (with a smile) was welcome too. I'll be back when I'm next around the area.

Without doubt, the best Chinese food in the area and they don’t just do Cantonese either. English? The Fish and Chips are great value and high quality - stay away! I don’t want to see big queues when I go.

Love the food, always freshly made and if you order it over the phone there's always only a 15 min pickup, not like most of them who tell you 30-45 mins. Lovely people.
