Had a meal Friday evening with my daughter and her dad. The food was excellent and the sort of prices I would expect. For the minute we walked in until we left the staff were very friendly and gave great service. Would be more than happy to recommend this place. Thank you all of you.

Great Chinese resturant in Cockermouth. Food was excellent and staff very friendly. My only complaint is they only open at 5 o clock Wednesday to Sunday. Would love to go for a lunch during the week or the weekends. Otherwise well worth a visit. 👍 😋😋

Saturday night walk-in but was given a table, albeit with the caveat it was needed in an hour and a half. No problem. Service was excellent, very efficient. Order taken swiftly, we ordered the Chinese banquet for 2 - set in stone menu choices (I did ask if I could swap a dish out but it was a no); wasn't a big deal really, just meant 1 dish I couldn't eat. Food was absolutely delicious. Hot, tasty, filling, plenty of rice to accompany. Cannot fault the 2/3 dishes I could eat. T'other half enjoyed all 3! Thought it was very well priced for a sit down authentic Chinese meal. Have been a few times now and have never had a bad meal.

We ordered a takeaway after the restaurant was recommended to us. The food was lovely and well priced. They were very helpful on the phone. I would definitely recommend.

The service was absolutely amazing; we were served very quickly, and one kind waiter answered some of our questions about the food immediately! The food was amazing as well; we had three different types of chicken, but all of them were delicious. The sides are plenty big to share. I liked the cosy atmosphere and the decor inside.

The sixth restaurant I've visited in Cockermouth in the two weeks I have stayed here and so far this has been my favourite. The complimentary prawn crackers were unusually good. The Peeking Hot & Sour soup was excellent and the Thai Red Chicken Curry was amazing. Great meal!

Had a set menu for 3 people on Friday evening, very knowledgeable staff and very friendly and professional, the food was excellent, every dish had it's own distinct flavour and was top quality. Wonderful selection of Gins and vodkas with St.Miguel lager on draft.All in all an extremely enjoyable evening, Would highly recommend and we will be back next time we are in Cockermouth.

Beautiful restaurant and great service. We both had King Prawns in black bean sauce with mushrooms. We had noodles and rice and Chinese tea. Everything was 100%. I love authentic Chinese food and this was right up there. We cleared our plates. Very happy indeed.

Ordered a takeaway whilst visiting the Lake District with family for the weekend. For context we are from London and honestly haven’t had a nicer Chinese ever we have tried so many Chinese takeouts in London and none of these compare to this. We ordered the salt & pepper chicken, chicken chow mein, crispy chilli beef, egg fried rice, curry sauce, sweet n sour chicken balls & chips. Not greasy and just such good flavour and value for money came to £52 which is amazing value for money. Definitely worth a visit and if we came to the area again we would come again. Thankyou!!

We visited whilst on holiday locally. Lovely Chinese and Thai food., majoring more on the Chinese options but my Thai yellow curry was delicious. On the pricier side but the quality is good. Service was excellent despite there only being one waitress as she was working very hard …More reviews
We visited whilst on holiday locally. Lovely Chinese and Thai food., majoring more on the Chinese options but my Thai yellow curry was delicious. On the pricier side but the quality is good. Service was excellent despite there only being one waitress as she was working very hard to keep everyone happy, in addition to managing a busy take out service too. Would recommend if price isn't a concern. A sharer starter and 3 mains with rice and chips on top, with soft drinks, was just over £80.

Really enjoyed our spontaneous visit here, it was very quiet which was good for us, the service was lovely , the staff were super professional.... and friendly....the only way ☺️, we had Thai which was super , gluten-free for me and was better than I expected considering a spontaneous visit here where we've never been. Will definitely be back , love them.
