Golden Lake in Manchester

Great Chinese chippy. Open everyday except Sunday. Great food. Lady at the counter very nice, polite, good understanding and good communication

Found a black long hair in my noodles.

Left items out of your our order rang to ask where they are and they tried charging us for the items again

Lovely staff, the food is good and decently priced and they absolutely stuff the chicken fried rice to the brim of the container. Would recommend 👍

Thought I’d give it a chance since it’s been taken over and I spent £5 on salt and pepper chips and a small curry sauce and it was the worst salt and pepper chips I’ve ever had from anywhere

The food is absolutely disgusting ended up in hospital with food poisoning after having salt and pepper spare ribs nasty and fatty.WOULDNT EAT FROM HERE AGAIN IF IT WAS FREE AND TGE STAFF ARE RUDE AND JUST LAUGH IF YOU RING UP NEEDS CLOSING DOWN.

The place has really gone downhill.. Used to go here all the time when it's was Maggie.. you can honestly tell she has gone!! The food was inedible and just went straight to the bin, the staff are just so rude and disrespectful and have a can't be bothered attitude. It just doesn't have the same vibe when you used to go in and Maggie would say hello and be friendly. Really disappointed and such a shame but I will definitely be looking for a new chippy even if I have to drive out the area Wish I could give a 0 star rating I left very un happy

The food has definitely gone downhill ...since changing hand the food isn't the same at all carnt eat from here anymore sorry

I ring your shop u not pick well pick up the phone pick up your phone when pepo are ri ng u want orden food of u

Excellent food and came so quick and hot special curry best yet

Absolutely lovely. Piping hot delicious beef curry for me. Pudding, chips and gravy for him indoors and a child's meal for our granddaughter. All meals finished despite generous portions. We definitely recommend and will be back, soon.

Always happy with the food from here. Sometime it's better than other times, but tastes good and excellent value for money. Recommended the crispy shredded chillie chicken dishes.

used to be amazing but now it taste disgusting, they really need to change the chefs.

Do not order from here ,visit was the most inedible food I've ever had from a chippy ,,when I complained they weren't interested, £22,down the drain ,the chips were raw ,the fish non existent, and a dreadful taste no idea what there frying them in ,please dont waste your hard earned money!

The best Chinese takeaway I've had in a long time been twice now on separate occasions excellent food excellent delivery service will be going again and spreading the word 👌

I am always very honest with my reviews...it was very hard to stay honest with this one! The food was terrible I was charged over 20 pound and did not receive my full order, (curry on one rice and a separate large curry pot) when calling to discuss my order I was shouted at immediately saying I did not order said items, this telling me she knew her mistake and was anticipating my call and I was hung up on. All I wanted was the sauce to be able to eat my food as it would have been some what dry without it. I had to drive to an alternative chippy to get curry sauce and drinks. And forcing me to eat cold food. I will never use here again and a refund would definitely be appropriate in this situation as my order and the charged amount do not equate with online prices. Avoid these thieves.

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE. It is not Maggie anymore. They’re food is absolutely disgusting. I have ordered from here for years. I knew as soon as Maggie had left in October. I rang to complain about the food and they spent the whole time laughing between the conversation and passing the phone between two people. Absolutely awfully handled. £40 worth of food has practically gone in the bin. Asked for a partial refund on the food that was inedible due to being undercooked etc and was told no. We cannot do that. This isn’t the first time I have had a problem since October but the first major problem where I have felt the need to complain. Apparently I am the first the person to complain since Maggie has left, I highly doubt that due to the sudden change in flavours and quality of food. Absolutely awful customer service and food quality.

lovely fresh food well cooked 🍳 😋

Great quality Chinese takeaway. Will definitely return.

Love this place!! New to the area and tried other Chinese takeaways,this one way ahead!

I like going here, as thay will leave out. eny ingredients that you don't like. If you ask for onion free. Thats what you get.

I have been meaning to write a review for years, I love golden lake and Maggie herself so warm and friendly, she works tirelessly with her partner and produces the best food in the area and what’s more impressive is her English range is better than any other too, I usually go for the salt & pepper chicken, crispy chilli beef, noodles, rice and curry sauce, can get 4 plates for a little over £15 with prawn crackers, see you tonight Maggie.

Very good Chinese food place and the best value for your money of the Chinese places in the withington/didsbury area. Amazing chicken chow mein, chicken balls, and tasty English food as well. Definitely worth trying.

Finally found a decent Chinese take away! Gorgeous food & fast delivery. Large portions & good prices. Spent a year in Manchester & this is the best Chinese I've had since being here. Will be my first choice from now on.

Good service and great food. Really glad to have a good take away local to where I live.

Great take away, upset it is currently closed due to covid-19

Nice little chinese, one of the better ones in the area. The chicken is really good, the chips are decent too.

Good Chinese chippy food excellent staff very friendly

the chicken balls are legit the bomb when it comes to battered meat, chicken balls everytime for the win, good service, quality chinese & chippy

Fantastic Chinese food never had bad meal. Staff very friendly. Fish and chips amazing fish always cooked fresh

great Chinese food and the English is good too..friendly staff

Mejor comida china para llevar en withington Chow mein perfecto. Muy buen pescado y patatas fritas, todo fresco. Personal amable Muy limpio muy recomendable

Visitamos Golden Lake regularmente y la comida es perfecta. . desde la sencilla cena "chippy" hasta los extensos platos orientales, algo para todos, bien cocinados por un personal animado ya un precio razonable. . muy recomendable.

Fish £3 is cooked fresh while you wait plus large portions of chips highly recommended

Always lovely food and super friendly.

Best Chinese chippy takeaway in Manchester. We always order from here and when we can't (because they're closed on Sundays) no other places are as good or as cheap. The portions are also a better size than other places we've tried. They do both Chinese and English very very well.

rápido, amigable, confiable, los platos chinos son excelentes, al igual que los favoritos en inglés, muy limpios, el personal es muy agradable en general, es un gran lugar y me encanta. .

Fast friendly service and great value for money have been using them for a very long time and they are very nice people

Great food and wonderful people. Always hot and quick made to order. Orders are always correct from a huge variety of dishes.

I am a regular and always ask for specific cooking method with less oil and spicy perfect every time

The best in the area will back to your taste, less oil, spicy etc

great food generous portions reasonably priced friendly staff...ideal local chippy..

Best Chinese takeaway around Lovely hot fresh food all the time Always taste great never had to complain once!

The best Chinese Takeaway in Manchester

The best chinese chippy in withington!

Lovely people, good food and great prices.... Unfortunately they forgot to batter my sausage! I had just got home from my holidays visiting Fort Ruxton and Khairas corner in wales. I was so down at having to return to England that I just needed a battered sausage to cheer me up. They forgot to do this!!!!! Now I am depressed and feel like crying. I will forgive them though because everything else was nice. Also the chairs were nice to sit on, very comfy on my bum. They also have a lucky cat that waves at you from behind the counter. I like cats, especially gold ones that wave... I also like fluffy ones and battered sausages. If only I got my battered sausage I would be awarding 5 stars here. :,(

Fantastic, first time to golden lake and would 100% order again SCRUMPTIOUS!!!

Fantastic, first time to golden lake and would 100% order again SCRUMPTIOUS!!!

Best fish tasted in a long time

I love the salt and pepper chicken here.. They also do really good salt and pepper fish

First time trying salt and pepper chips and well banging as a bang ting , got them about 500 times since 👌🏽

Food was not to the standard that usual at, salt & pepper chicken over cooked, spare ribs sauce was really thick&lumpy. Not happy with it this time.

Hot & sour soup had a really weird taste and was basically inedible. Singapore vermicelli not particularly fresh-tasting. Salt & pepper wings were the only appetising item to be honest. Won't be ordering from here again.

Had to wait a tad later than quoted, but when the food arrived it was worth it! Steaming hot and absolutely delicious! Will deffo be ordering from here again!

Best Chinese ever would recommend always buy from here

Delicious, healthy, had sea food I wanted, spicy full of vegetable. Simply yummi. Desert fruit also delicious, but serving bananas made me laugh :D maybe should consider cutting in pieces O:-) got complimentary crisps it was nice

A short review is not long enough.ordered bcue ribs,no bcue.ordered meat spring rolls, no meat just veggy rolls.tasted of nothingness

the food was lovely till we put on the curry sauce there was no flavour in the curry sauce at all and it was like water so the food was wasted as we couldent really eat it

Lovely Food and delivery right on time

Both chippy food and Chinese food were great. Solid on price and delivery

The only fault was that the pork was too tough to eat but everything else was great, thanks!

Quality food, speedy delivery, lovely staff, food arrived nice and warm.

Food came earlier than estimated which is all was a bonus and everything was hot and fresh

Nice food however wasn't really keen on chips, seemed to be re cooked but fish, noodles and prawn toast was really nice.

Great quality and taste delivered within 30 mins fresh hot excellent

Decent food for decent price. Can't really complain but the delivery time was ridiculous.

Food it's self was amazing how ever the delivery was awfull was 40 mins late and the driver just said I'm just driver not my fault never get Delivery always collect but again food however is amazing

Lovely food as usual many thanks

Good. Would definitely go back again

First order & wasn't disappointed. Just brilliant all round

Food was 40 minutes late. When it finally arrived the delivery guy said it's not my fault blame the shop and walked off. Chips were cold, starter was overcooked. Won't be ordering from here again which is a shame because I have ordered from here a few times.

Food was amazing! Didn't take aslong as it said, however still long wait

Food was awesome and delivered really quickly! Will definitely be ordering from here again.

Yet again another awesome meal. Highly recommend

Delivered ahead of time, food was hot and smelled delicious. Upon opening you could tell it had not sat on a hot plate for half an hour before being sent out. The steamed dumplings were fantastic.

Delivery was right on time, and the driver even bought it up to my flat which never happens. Food was piping hot and very tasty. Will definitely be ordering from here again
