Didnt eat in the resturant i ordered Take Away,but wont ever do it again due to the service,i ordered my food for 6 people and was happy with price.But it took for ages over an hour and half and still no food.I rang to find out what was going on for to have a member of staff be very abrupt and no hint of an aplology.She was was quite happy to hear me cancel my order like it was nothing to her.I wont ever try to use this takeaway if it was the last chinese avaiable in town.Shocking service no...

Seriously wouldnt recommend anyone to order takeaway there (read more)
