Always had great food from the china palace BUT tonight the food arrived cold and absolutely tasteless in every way plus ordered duck in orange sauce and got duck in pineapple instead £30 down the drain will never order from them again.

Quality isn't consistent. Years ago was great then went downhill. New owners started off well, food was so good I knew there was a new chef and gave praise but sadly the standards have slipped with cold food & chilli beef was on the turn. Requested a replacement as it was my fav dish & they said they'd charge delivery. Won't be ordering again simply don't know what will be delivered. I always order fairly early on quiet days so no excuse. I can think of cheaper ways to be disappointed.

Made a large order for 8 family members consisting of 11 meals. Firstly order was delivered to wrong address. When order finally arrived we realised straight away that we were missing 1 meal and the dishes that did arrive were incorrect and cold. Contacted the takeaway and was ultimately called a liar by the telephone staff. Not willing to send out replacement. I was informed that I was the one who had got my order wrong. This is absolutely unacceptable and the manner in which I was spoken to was incredibly insulting. They were not willing to accept any responsibility for their errors. I would most definitely not recommend anyone to order from here. This was by far the worst customer service anyone could encounter and the food was most definitely not worth the wait. Extremely poor all round. If I could rate with zero stars I would.

First of all our delivery went to the wrong address by the time our food finally arrived it was stone cold. Upon dishing out our meals we found orders were wrong and dishes were missing. When I phoned the take away they basically called me a lair and they were very rude and refused to put thier wrongs right. I will not be recommending this Chinese to any family or friends. Stay clear of the China Palace.

Portion sizes were great and it was ready in five minutes of ordering on a saturday, but the dishes we ordered were pretty flavourless. The sweet and sour sauce wasn’t sweet at all and weirdly has stained my husbands hand where the carton had leaked, still trying to scrub it off his hand the next day 😕

Not 1 to complain over a single bad experience but after 3 I have decided to avoid. Agreed to a 1 hr delivery wait, arrived after 2 hrs, cold & sloppy. I've ordered on opening and food arrived within minutes, cold & half portions, probably left overs. Chilli beef mostly carrots had to hunt for meat. Sweet sour sauce bland with silly amount of red dye that stains skin. Chop suey watery mostly bean sprouts. Below food safety temp standards. Unable to deal with demand and deliver consistent good quality food.

Had a Chinese from here last Tuesday for the first time in years as my regular Chinese was closed. It was THE BEST Chinese I've had in ages. Kung pow chicken had a stunning flavour to it. Chips, egg fried rice and chowmain were spot on. Not greasy at all. Boiling hot, quick delivery. 10/10. This is now our new regular!

Ordered and really pleased when we were told 30-45 minutes, after ringing they called back to say it was 5 minutes away, after another 15 minutes it came, most of it cold, chips hard and cold, mushroom foo yeung, smelt terrible and it was cold, the curry sauce was nice but luke warm and all in all really disappointed, binned most of it, when I rang they did offer to re cook it, so that is to there credit, the lady who took th pe order and those I spoke to were lovely and the delivery guy was apologetic, but before you ask I couldn’t have it recooked as it’s had been over 2 hours at this point and I had to go out, so couldn’t wait incase it was a long time. Really sad as haven’t used them for a long time and sadly won’t be again.

We orderd a chinese as we only live up the road. We did not want to collect so decided to have it ordered. So we rang to find out where it was after an hour and the lady could not find our order. Then hour and half later it had turned up. We did not accept the meal . Sorry to the driver as she was very polite and explained that she was the only driver on. Feel sorry for her. Shame on china place though.

Friendly, helpful and fast service... But... Unfortunately the food was very disappointing! The egg fried rice tasted more like boiled rice, the onion rings didn't taste of onions at all and had a fishy taste and smell and had a rubbery texture! The cantonese chicken was very tasteless and was offputtingley red (it looked like blood) and the battered chicken in it was really soggy. My husband enjoyed his chicken curry but it was lacking in flavour from what we usually have. But on a more positive note there was a free portion of salt and pepper chicken which I enjoyed (and I normally find salt and pepper dishes too spicy for me). We won't be going there again but I wish them all the best 😁

Not for the first time they did not include a meal we ordered. Previously they said they would give us a free dish with our next order then surprise surprise they had no record of us complaining about a missed meal. This is the fourth time over about 10 orders this has happened. It spoils the meal for everyone. They really need to check all orders before leaving. Definitely will not be using them again, they have used up all their chances now!! Only the delivery man apologised for it, the staff taking the orders or the manager didn’t.

Please do not order from here. First of all the order was totally wrong. However was really hungry so decided to eat.... shouldn’t have bothered absolutely disgusting.... asked for sweet and sour king prawns not battered..... they come battered in the sauce, the texture was like bread dipped in gravy and left to soak for a day, absolutely vile... noodles we asked for plain no veg guess what came with veg.....rang to complain they did not want to know not even an apology or offer of a refund or even to replace the bits of it that were wrong. They even tried to say that we ordered it wrong wtf? How can you order it wrong I read it from your menu you moron.....Really rude owners I would never contemplate ordering from there again even if I was starving and they were the last resort for food on earth..... the worst ever!

The food here is nice. We usually have chicken chow mein, sweet and sour chicken balls, been sprouts, rice, curry sauce and chips. The chow mein could a some more bean sprouts in it to make it a bit crunchier. Also the chicken balls have a bit to much batter on them for my liking, this can make the batter a bit soggy. Other than that I would recommend it but only if China China was closed, they r the best.

One star is too much. Took nearly an hour to deliver, one portion of food had leaked everywhere and the manageress told me to come to the Chinese to replace it. I drove there, had the food replaced after waiting inside for 15 minutes. Food had not been replaced just re heated, tasted like crap and I received nothing back and when I asked for some money back for compensation she gave me only my delivery money back. They don't care about customers just pumping out crap food and ensuring they get their money. Avoid at all costs.
