This is a fantastic Chinese restaurant.. it’s not changed much in the 25 years I’ve been coming here but the food and service is always excellent.. minced quail is a must!

Wanted a dine in Chinese and after a quick Google search I came across this one. The reviews were good so we thought we'd give it a try. The restaurant was very clean albeit a bit dated and we were greeted and seated promptly. Went for the set meal for 2 for £40 and it was very very nice! A nice chicken broth starter followed by sweet and sour chicken, beef in black bean, spicy pork and special rice. We both loved it and just the right size as it all went and both full. Definitely recommend

I ABSOLUTELY LIVE FOR CHUNGS!!! Whether it's mine, Mum's or Dad's birthday We Are Back EVERY SINGLE YEAR!!!!! Service is perfect. End of. You are greeted when you walk in, the staff are so polite and happy. They look like they want to be there, and that goes a long way. The food is always served fast and hot. Finger bowls are provided after starters with ribs, etc. There is a small car park literally over the road. I'm just glad I don't live closer, because I'd spent too much on takeaways looooool. We always dine in but if my parents go, I beg them to bring me a takeaway. LUSH FOOD!!!

Have to be honest i consider myself a connoisseur of the spare rib I’m going to throw it out there and say Chungs do the best I have tasted!! there I’ve said it !! They’re that good that the first time I tried them after a few beers I wasn’t sure so I went back a week later !! 10/10 Foods amazing, service is so fast it’s unbelievable. Can’t go wrong

I had a brilliant experience at Chungs, all the staff were very welcoming and attentive, the atmosphere was very peaceful and the food was absolutely delicious! The best Chinese/Cantonese food I’ve ever had! We had spring rolls, sizzling king prawns with satay sauce, special fried rice and two portions of sweet and sour chicken. All were very nice!
