DE BAO CHINESE TAKEAWAY in East Lindsey - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great selection of omnivorous foods. always being busy is a great sign. Best in skeggy

Best chinese in skegness. Lovely service, fast delivery, Lovely food A+++ Will definitely be using again when we are back on holiday.

On holiday here in Skegness. Ordered here due to good reviews for 5 people. All were happy. Good Chinese, can’t comment on delivery as we collected.

Absolutely outstanding food be a fool to let this one pass you by

No card payments,no online pay...

Lovely chinese. Tasty and clean.

Not often you get a good chinese when on holiday but this was beautiful ..

Great food at a cheaper price than our local area, only downside was couldn’t get through on the phone to order so had to drive to the shop and wait quite a long time but it was a Saturday so to be expected busy.

⭐⭐⭐ During our holiday visit to Skegness, we decided to try out De Bao Chinese takeaway and ended up spending over £60. Overall, we were impressed with the flavors and timely preparation of most dishes. However, the low point of the meal was the chips, which tasted like they had been kept warm for too long. Despite this, the rest of the food was enjoyable and well-cooked. One aspect that bothered me was the cash-only policy. In today's digital age, this seems outdated and raises concerns about tax avoidance. It would be more convenient for customers if they accepted card payments, as many people don't carry cash anymore. Additionally, the sign warning customers to check their change felt unwelcoming. Despite these issues, I'd still rate the experience as good, mainly due to the delicious food and efficient service.

Nice food But they never answer there Phone. You can ring at 5 and by 7 still dont answer.

Absolutely faultless ! Delicious food every time , very consistent. Best Chinese in Skegness without a doubt

Lovely Chinese the best we have found,it's a wait when you order.but you know everything is cooked from scratch .I just wish they answered there phones .just a little niggle .

Great tasting food and good portion sizes.

Delicious food but can hardly order from here as the phone is constantly busy.

We aren't from the area, we were staying in Skegness for the weekend and now I'm absolutely gutted we don't live here! The BEST Chinese takeaway we have ever had. The portions were HUGE, usually I demolish a takeaway but had anough for leftovers the next day. Didn't take too long, and food was piping hot on arrival (they delivered to our caravan park). Might have to book another cheeky weekend away just to have this food again 🤣

Great chinese food delicious and great staff

Just had a delicious takeaway 😋 it was so delicious 😋 a long wait 35 mins but certainly worth it for the piping hot food still red hot when I walked in with it this Chinese takeaway is on busy main road parking not always good its just on road parking 😋 delicious fresh and piping hot certainly would go again oh dear I went again wasn't very good this time I will leave the 4 stars because last time it was amazing salt and pepper chips very dry sweet and sour sauce very watery it's a shame 🫠 I didn't eat much of it if I go again I hope its as delicious as the first time if I go again that is

Bang average Chinese, chicken was dry, terrible chips, not enough sauce

Amazing food, very clean premises with friendly staff, I would definitely recommend it.

First time we have used this takeaway. Very rarely do I get an actual crispy shredded beef it’s always soggy, but this was very crispy. Beef chow mien was spot on very tasty and the special fried rice was full of little extras. And all was piping hot. Only lost a star because the prawn crackers were disgusting , tasted very oily. I wouldn’t complain if they were free like other takeaways, but I paid for these and put them in the bin. Decor could do with a little tidying but I’m rating the food here

Very poor from start to finish. They know you are holiday makers and just gove you whatever they can. Our portion sizes were all In small containers and a local arrived ordered a dish same has our order and got a bigger container. Also when we got home order was wrong. Definitely don't recommend this take away.

Fantastic Food with fantastic prices, first time visit and won't be my last. Now my go to Chinese Takeaway, everything tasted fantastic and nothing was bland. Cash only but they do deliver if needed

Lovely little find!! Brilliant food. Wait was only as long as the order! Fantastic value for money

Stayed in Skegness for a week for a holiday with family and searched google for a chinese near me. De Bao came up with a great rating, great images of food and decent prices. Rang up, ordered, and got it delivered right to the sight. Came fast and hot within the time frame provided. Will be ordering again tonight and can’t wait! Would recommend to everybody.

Ordered a Takeaway from this place while on holiday in Skegness this past week, Wednesday evening, delivered to our Holiday Haven Site ( Used to be Richmond) No doubt it was the nicest Chinese Takeaway we have ever had , even better than from our favourite Takeaway in our home town we have on a regular basis. Best everything! And delivery and price was spot on. Delicious! A highlight of our week 😁👍

Wow amazing food the portion sizes are big and it comes piping hot what more could you want. Best Chinese I've had in my adult life!!

I have tried many Chinese takeaways and there is always that little something missing that stops me giving a full 5 stars. I have finally found my 5 star in the De Bao and its right on my doorstep. My phone was on constant speed dial for over half hour before my phone was answered an it had only just opened up; that's always a good sign. My order, from left to right was Sweet n Sour Spare Ribs, Honey & Chilli King Prawn in batter and Singapore Style Chow Mein. The obligatory bag of chips with curry sauce dip complete the meal. Don't be fooled by those dark ribs; they are slightly crispy on the outer edge but beautifully soft iside. The sweet n sour sauce has to be home made. Its not that thick orangey-red stuff you usually get, this sauce is light, delicately spiced and slightly more sour than sweet, but its difficult to tell because the flavour changes then changes back again. Its a merry-go-round on the taste buds. The chow mein comprised of perfectly cooked noodles, veg, various meats and prawns and was deliciously flavoured. And finally those prawns. Wow! They are very different. Cooked in a thin batter and bathed in a honey and hot spicy sauce. This was my perfect meal and believe me, I am very fussy. I love the heat from this meal. Not too much, but may be a little too warm for some. If you aren't keen on heat or spices choose from the menu carefully. I have marked 'Atmosphere' as a 5 because I couldn't remove it. As I used a delivery service so used the mark for the guy that delivered. He was very friendly and helpful.

Good tasty takeaway. Deliveries also. Order early

It only the best Chinese in this area but beats my hometown favourite would definitely recommend. 10/10 empty plates all round

I would recommend this takeaway as an option for any of my friends who are in the area. Sadly I won't be returning any time soon as I live three and a half hours away, but should I find myself in Skegness again, I'll be popping in again.

Probably in the top two Chinese takeaways in Skegness.

We got a takeaway here a week or so ago. It wasn't a great experience, and we definitely won't be returning. The place is dismal, a large open shop area that's plain and soulless, a counter hemmed in with covid screens (still), and a tiny window where a dour, disinterested girl reached out to take our money. Once you've paid, you hang around in a plain unheated area until your food is passed to you through the little window. The food wasn't awful. Wasn't that great either. We'll try somewhere else next time.

Just been to this takeaway , first of all the lady which was in recption was so rude , and second just had chicken fried rice and chciken wings which was not even cleaned all were having hairs on it didn't even ate alll thrown to bin and the rice it was all smelly

Bland food, looked like frozen food from Iceland,

This is by far the best Chinese food we have had! We had to hunt for a Chinese that was actually open and I have to admit my expectations were not very high. The food tasted amazing and was still hot by the time we got back to our caravan. Delicious!!

Absolutely wonderful chow main, hot on arrival & best Chinese we’ve had & believe me it’s took a year to find after trying a lot more. Recommend highly

Always have a good meal from here. The staff could learn some bedside manners but overall a great chinese.

Sooo good, especially their ribs and shredded beef. Yummy yummy!

Always beautiful food- love the boxed noodles- owner was helpful as I have an allergy and adjusted a dish to accommodate this... ❤

Great food. Very busy phone line so ended up going down and ordering.

Top quality, good variety and absolutely delicious. Price spot on. Also do delivery.

Excellent food. Quick service. Competitive prices.

Just had a lovely meal delivered from DE BAO CHINESE TAKEAWAY and so quick at a very reasonable price cheers mo

Best Chinese in town. Bar none.

Always a well cooked tasty Chinese meal never had any cause to complain

The only photos I could show would be empty plates. Absolutely beautiful food and pretty quick delivery. We’re staying at Richmond Park and food was here in an hour, piping hot. Salt and pepper ribs, seaweed, veg curry and they made my interpretation of salt and pepper mushrooms. If I ever come back to Skegness I will definitely be ordering again.

Very good food, almost half the price of any other Chinese takeaway

Real good food. Good service and polite staff

Lovely food, was piping hot even when we got back to our caravan!

Food was good lots of it delivered quickly. Recommend

wow what can I say but amazing food piping hot and we live in ingoldmells deffo worth the money and big portions couldnt eat it all neither could mypartner we will deffo be ordering again for sure thank you for such nice food

Salt'n'pepper spare ribs, house special chow mein, yum

I have been waiting for 2 hours for my food, tried to get through to cancel but no answer or engaged. Will not be ordering from here again as this happens every time

Best chinese in skegness, be it chow mein, ribs, sweet and sour, rice dishes, foo young.... all meals are excellent.

Great Chinese, the best in Skegness for sure. It is very clean, food is fresh and is cooked on show and kitchens are immaculate.

Had the Beef in black bean sauce with crispy vermicelli noodles, and a portion of chips... It came to £6.50p, and it could have fed 2 people ,easily.....😋😋😋 It was extremely tasty meal, chips were lush. .... But, had to leave some as too much food for me...... Very nice tasty dish though......👍👍👍👍😋😋

First time, didn't regret one bit. Lovely meal. Highly recommended.

Never had a bad meal from here been going for years the quality and quantity is the best around would highly recommend this place for food

Excellent food, phoned order and it was waiting for us. I have never had beef so tender from a Chinese before.

Used this establishment recently and never again had to be the some of the worst food that I've consumed in my opinion stay well clear

Just had a wonderful meal from De Bao. Everything hot, meal for three, would recommend :)

Always lovely, never had a bad one and been having these delivered for years.

it ok but I will never touch prawns from there again as dont take spines out of the prawns they live them in and there supposed to be poisonous

Never had a bad meal in all the time it’s been open. And the Salt and pepper chips are second to none

Such good food, not great customer service but its the best Chinese food in Skegness 100%

Def recommend. Chose this after lady at dragon house was very rude . Seems like she is like this all the time. Lady who took my order at de bao was very polite. We chose to collect order ourselves as delivery would be a while as they were very busy. Glad we did , as the food was beautiful. All my family commented how nice it was. Recommend this takeaway

Wouldn't recommend another Chinese

Very tasty food! Took around 30 minutes to cook but I expect we went at a busy time. Tried to phone through our order but the line was busy. Would definitely recommend!

Unsure of which to visit we ended up picking this one. It looks a bit shabby from the outside if you go to collect but do not let this put you off! This is now one of our favourite Chinese places anywhere!! Really nice food and I thought a great price too (£25–£30) for 4 adults is not to be knocked.

Great Chinese down Drummond road Skegness, freshly cooked and food stays red hot I even drive from there to Wainfleet and the food was still boiling :) great chinese

Lived in Skegness for 6 months, finally found a decent Chinese take away, not going to go anywhere else now.

The best Chinese in skeg in our opinion. It does get really busy so sometimes a long wait but we've only ever had 1 bad meal from here in the last 8 years of using it.

When they wont even answer the phone and just pick up then hang up they dont deserve any business!!! Atleast answer and say your not taking any more orders. 🤬

Nice fresh cuisine always on time

One of my favourite chinese takeaways not only in Skegness but better than the ones in my hometown local to me. Can be busy with a long wait (20min) on occasions but worth the wait. A semi open kitchen so you can get a partial view of the food being prepared. Very large choice menu and were willing to knock up chicken with bean sprouts in oyster sauce that's not on the menu.

Lovely food thoroughly enjoyed my meal

A good Chinese but gets ultra busy and 2nd time I've had food from which is delicious but was a lil cold this time..

Very nice food and good service from an excellent Chinese takeaway

First time that I tried it, food was excellent. Will use again.

Normally a great place but we had sweet and sour chicken Cantonese style and not alot of chicken and just generally tuff

Best Chinese in skegness food always good quality and very tasty

Love this Chinese Delivery service too is always pretty fast Use regular

Possibly the best Chinese I've had and very quick service. Chicken balls and chow mein were perfect. Would definitely recommend. I will be returning.

I've had better they only deliver to us in the week at weekends they say they are to busy, what a cheek, deliver or don't I say

Absolutely perfect food. Cooked beautifully

Honestly the best Chinese I've ever had! Nomnomnom. Great value and big portions too. Would 100% recommend.

Had a great Chinese, very greasy though. The lemon chicken was delicious and had so much flavour. The price was decent too. They will only accept cash not card.

Currently rated (by me) as the best Chinese takeaway in Skegness. Since the quality of food at Dragon House plummeted like a lead balloon tied to a grand piano with an anvil inside it, there's nowhere else I'd go.

Just had Sweet & Sour king prawn Cantonese style,chow mein noodles,prawn cracker,s.Less than £10 SUPERB.A reeyt platefull.!!! I swear by um

Normally food comes quicker than a virgin! But literally been waiting over an hour and a half and its still not arrived! Bearing in mind i live 0.2miles away! Disgusting!

Hot food at a reasonable price.

Brilliant food best in skegness

Nice Chinese good food very tasty would strongly recomend for its mixed meat curry

curry sauce tasted like soap...

service quick,food good and portions big would definitely recommend

Nice meal with good size portions Quick delivery on a Saturday Night

dont have the Crispy Chicken with Salt and Pepper and expect it to be crispy. I expected thin strips of crispy chicken instead my chicken was like chicken nuggets. If I wanted chicken nuggets I would have gone to KFC. phoned and was told there was nothing they could do about it. When you only have half an hour for your break and your food is not right, it spoils it a bit.

Best Chinese in Skegness..and they deliver as far as Wainfleet👍🏻👍🏻👌🏻

Best chinese in skeg never fail to impress wud recomend highly 5*
