Years ago there was best Chinese in Armagh, but after today I'm definitely won't be back here. The only spices I could taste was salt. Absolutely disgusting.

Got food for a birthday tea. The food we got was over cooked apart from the rice and chips. Not happy considering it cost over £50. This place has gone down hill.

Chinese wasn't great. Prawn crackers were Duck spring rolls were so greasy, and had no flavour. I asked for Kong po chicken and it was more like sweet n sour chicken Cantonese style. My husband wouldn't even eat the prawn crackers 😒

Had a return visit for a meal at East Chinese restaurant on Saturday night last ( after the Georgian Market day in Armagh City.) Had a nice surprise to see that the restaurant has been refurbished and was very stylish and comfortable and lively. Great service. Food was excellent as always and good value. Definitely recommend.

The takeaway is always better than sitting in. Very quick food coming out and tend to get the feeling that staff and Mansger want you to finish your food asap. Chicken curry etc for a takeaway though is top class.

East Chinese use to be a half decent spot for eating. Seems now that they're the only Chinese restaurant in Armagh, their service and quality has suffered as a result. Wrong food brought to the wrong tables or sending customers home with the wrong orders, or food under cooked or too salty! I'll not be back, nor will most people I know. Not until they maybe try to sell out again and let someone else take over. Shame too.

Cant really complain, out of the options in Armagh for Chinese dining, this is the best hands down. The service is friendly, the food is very good, really long extensive menu which can be a bit complicated, but we eat here quite frequently and always enjoy it.

Fuimos a cenar un grupo de nosotros. El servicio es bueno y el personal es amable. La comida, por otro lado, está bien. Tuve la sopa dulce y agria, que era bueno. También teníamos el plato, que no era genial y el dim sum incluso peor. Tuvimos una gran variedad de platos principales. Salados chili pollo estaba bien, el sizzling estilo cantonés carne era buena, la miel chili pollo era buena y la salada chili calamar. El calamar fue correoso y el bateador era empalagoso.

Comimos allí la última noche como despedida para nuestro hijo que se va a China a trabajar. Había 5 de nosotros y nos pusimos de acuerdo en el menú de 5 platos en 15.95. Compartimos un plato de bonito oriental, muy variada y muy sabrosa. Este fue seguido por pollo y sopa de maíz dulce, elección de plato principal pollo al curry individual, crujiente pollo en miel chili, estilo dulce y agria Pollo cantonés y Pollo pekín - luego helado y banana buñuelos y té y café. Bebidas incluidas botella de merlot - preciosa nos pidió un segundo. China cerveza strawberry daiquiri y unas cuantas botellas de coca cola. Toda la comida bien preparada y bien presentada. Servicio excelente. Muy amable, eficiente y oportuna. Izquierda totalmente llenos y preparados para tumbarse. En resumen, una gran noche. Un precio razonable por debajo de 130 por 5. Sin duda lo recomiendo.

This restaurant speaks volumes about Irish expectations when it comes to Chinese food. After all, this is the first Asian restaurant where they will substitute chips for rice. My Kung Po chicken was identical to my sweet n sour pork.... See picture. Come on!.... You can fool some of the customers some of the time but not all of the customers all of the time b

Booked east for saturday evening for fathers day treat for dad. Allocated nice table with good view of whole restaurant. Busy night with a few large parties in attendance and a steady flow of customers which is always a good sign. Salted chilli chicken&spring roll starters were delicious,(dad saved himself for his main!).Salted chilli chicken especially tasty and a generous sized portion for a starter. Singapore chow mein, sczechuan beef and sirloin steak were our mains. Dad extremely fussy about his steak however he raved about how tasty it was & cooked to perfection! Served up with chips,peas,onions,mushrooms and sauce of choice. Food was excellent,great selection to choose from and good range of drinks including a cocktail menu! Prompt service and friendly attentive staff. Lovely evening,look forward to returning.

Four of us ordered a takeaway to bring back to our rented cottage in nearby Caledon and, while the service was friendly, I can honestly say it was the worst Chinese meal I've ever had in my life.Utterly tasteless trays of gloop, with very little to distinguish between dishes other than the colour of said gloop: orange, beige or brown.In fact, after chatting about it with my wife on the flight home, I've decided it's the worst meal of ANY KIND I've had in at least the last decade. The only thing that comes close is a bland plate of Fish and Brewis in a cafe on a sodden evening in Newfoundland in 2005.Avoid.

I hadnt had the occasion to eat in East Chinese Restaurant for about a year. My last experience being one in which the food was nice but on the bland side. I went with friends recently. The restaurant was very busy, food was really good and the service frendly and efficient. However two things may put me off from going back for a while.Firstly, the cold. The restaurant was cold. People in our company didnt take their coats off. At the table next to us two women had their jackets draped over their shoulder throughout their meal. I noticed a couple of heaters in the middle of the restaurant but this wasnt enough to heat the area,Secondly, the strength of the odour and fumes from sizzling dishes being served at the tables was extremely over powering. It caught the back of my throat every time a sizzling dish was served near our table and distored the taste of my meal.That said, in the summer, when the weather is warmer and the restaurant can be better ventilated I will probably go back.

It was my first time visiting Armagh, and i was so pleasantly surprised. I don't know what I was expecting, but arriving at the hotel was a great way to start it. I was warmly received, checkin was easy, and my room was modern, comfortable (a little warm for my taste, but easy to turn off the radiator). I stayed three nights, while in town for a music festival. Breakfast was fairly standard (the self-serve fried kind), but fine. The hotel has an attached conference center, and in addition to concerts for the music festival, there appeared to be other events happening there at the same time, though the only way you'd know was when you passed the open doors - there was no bleed-through of sound from one to the other, and plenty of room for everyone. Booking my room was easy online, but changing it was a little odd: they wouldn't do it over the phone, they said I had to email them. But that said, they did exactly what I asked (dropped a fourth night, close to the 48hour cancellation window), and changed my booking from two guests to one (which made a difference in the bed-and-breakfast rate), got it right first time, and sent me a confirmation by email within a couple of hours. All-in-all, 10/10 would recommend.

It was pouring rain on a Monday morning when we arrived here In Poyntzpass on a recommendation. We didn’t know this independent place existed. This is a small village about 8 miles from Newry and this cafe is almost adjacent to the old canal towpath, which is part of the Ulster Way so hikers, bikers and walkers are a mainstay of their business. Like many places they currently offer the current government eat out to help out deal that ends at the end of August 2020. It’s about the only popular thing this lousy government has done in its first year in power. So we sat in and it was really cosy and homely. We were captivated by the sophisticated and shiny coffee machine - apparently it was only installed yesterday. The owner explained the inner workings of this contraption and I was impressed with the technology behind our coffee. We ordered large cappuccinos, one toasted chicken & pineapple toastie with side salad and one poached eggs (2) with avocado mash on sourdough with chilli flakes. All in all £8.5 for two. The service was ace and it’s really worth a visit or several.
