KW Chinese Takeaway in Purbeck

First time we have tried this one in all the years we have been visiting and now living. What a mistake..... it was absolutely amazing! The staff were really lovely and the food had a great taste. This will now be my go to Chinese

Food was hot & tasty. We collected it at the time arranged & didn’t have have a long wait before the food was ready for collection which is unusual for most takeaways. Good value for the money & staff pleasant. If I’m the area again we would happily use it again.

Great food. Very reasonably priced. Salt and chilli chips are to die for!! The staff are always friendly. So what if it’s cash only! Cash point is only a short walk away at Sainsburys 👍🏼

I went to visit a friend in the area so thought I’d give it a go. I ordered roughly £30 worth of food and we enjoyed it a lot! The staff were lovely although the young English girl accidentally charged extra which I didn’t realise but they came out and told me, refunded me the extra straight away and apologised sincerely which I appreciated.

Very unsatisfactory, no card machine , cash only , please avoid food awful too , need to modernise and actually accept card as the world does !

I don’t know why I do it to myself - second meal here and this time as bad as the one before. Only went here as the other Chinese in town was shut. Shredded chili beef was rock hard and fairly bland, the spring rolls just as bland. Service from the girl taking orders was poor - had to drag herself away from her phone to serve me. Go to the other place in town, or better still get an Indian takeaway as all three locals are better.

We were looking for a Chinese whilst visiting friends and chose this place, ordered several items from the menu for collect, which wasn’t ready on time. The Kung Po chicken was bland and lacking spice, crispy shredded beef was swimming in oil, that was a first! Overall it was very disappointing, being relatively local we certainly won’t be returning here anytime soon.

Had a take away whilst on holiday at Sandford May 2021. Ordered 7 dishes which were all well cooked, great size & very tasty. This rivalled our preferred Chinese in London so we were very impressed & wanted to leave an up to date review to encourage others go give it a go. It's a difficult decision when you are away in an area you don't know & have to decide where to choose from.

While on holiday nearby we noticed this takeaway while visiting Wareham earlier in the day. Our only problem was trying to park at night nearby and finally ended up in a carpark. We ordered several dishes and all were very good. I always order deep fried crispy beef and am usually disappointed, Not this time. This was the best I've had for many years. We enjoyed everything, it was hot, fresh and very tasty. I would certainly recommend KW.

We’ve been using KW for 15 years and have always had great food - in our view it’s easily the best Chinese takeaway in Wareham

Just one of our many takeaways from KW. We always find the food is freshly cooked and of good quality.

Had difficulty making the perfectly spoken English girl understand my order.Drove from Swanage to collect the order.Back home found the portions large but very bland.We ordered chicken and beef but both dishes were chicken,too far to return.The soup was nice but the rest of the meal was tasteless,the chicken was tender however.

Really wish and looked at reviews, Never used this takeaway before and won’t be again. More oil than food it was awful we couldn’t eat it the food was over cooked and expensive.

I just phoned up to order a Chinese very nice young lady answer the phone who spoke perfect English, I asked do you deliver she said I don't think so, I said I take it your first day so she said yes. There was a long pause whilst I assumed she was going to find out if they deliver only to get the same reply again of I still don't think we deliver goodbye!!!!

I have visited KW for years since I was a child. I hadn't been for a few years as I've moved away but on a visit back home I treated myself and I'm so glad I did. They really do make the best Chinese food and no other Chinese compares in my opinion! They're also the only Chinese I've found that do lemon chicken covered in sauce which I absolutely love and I've never found anywhere else that does crispy chicken like they do! It really is the best Chinese!

This is quite possibly the worst chinese takeaway I have had the misfortune to use. I called to order takeaway for my mother and I, mid-evening on a Friday. I ordered a chicken curry and a prawn curry with 2 fried rice and a fried noodles and a bottle of soy sauce. I had travelled 3 miles to collect it. Having returned home, there were 2 fried rice, fried noodles and a chicken curry The prawn curry and the soy sauce were both missing. I drove back to the restaurant to complain and saw the English girl that I had collected the food from. She called the chef/owner from the kitchen. Whilst conciliatory, both seemed to find something amusing about the situation. I did not find it funny at all. Having returned home and opened the food, I increasingly realised that they had probably done us a favour by missing food from the order. It was absolutely inedible. The rice was greasy, the noodles tasteless and in the curries consisted of a few barely-cooked ingredients in a semi-transparent, watery slop. If I had actually been tasked to prepare a dish which was truly pathetic and unappetising, I could not have done as badly as KW Chinese did. I cannot stress just how bad it was. Even my mum who is renowned both for her terrible cooking for her forgiveness of ineptitude could not eat this fare. Avoid at all costs.

Bought chow mein takeaway and had to throw it away as it wasn’t edible.Smelt off and chicken tasted disgusting.Phoned to complain only to be told they have fresh chicken everyday and then put phone down on me.Would certainly not recommend.Would rate 0

had to return the dish as was completely uneatable - saving grace they did give me a refund but wont go back again in a hurry

Cooked to order normal waiting time 15 minutes. Wide range of authentic Chinese food. Appearance outside not impressive but food makes up for it

Gave up on both take away in ware ham years ago, the pandada is probably the best but the reception girl is very miserable, and I mean MISERABLE!

We got a takeaway from here and wished we didn't. They got the order wrong, chicken chowmein had no chicken or any other meat for that matter. Also there was plain chow main noodle at the bottom and a layer of beansprout on the top. The chicken fried rice had pieces of unflavoured roast chicken mixed after fried rice was made! Wished I knew how crap it was. Never eaten such tasteless Chinese before. Never order from here.

Called in for a takeaway. Ordered a special curry with fried rice. It was inedible. Never seen a curry like it. Full of carrots in every shape, hardly any meat. Funny red colour. It went in bin.

Had a take-away from their varied menu. It was hot but maybe we picked the wrong foods as we found all the dishes greasy. I suppose we get used to our local chinese at home and this didn't hit the spot. Friendly staff but perhaps we'll try again if visiting the area again and make different choices - or ask for advice.

Sue had beef chop suey I had sweet and sour king prawn! Both were delicious!!The prices were ok but lots dearer than were used to at home! The kids came to have a look over the counter to see the funny English man!! The young lady who takes the orders is beautiful!!

Decent Chinese near where we stayed and the meals were fantastic! This place deserved 5 stars on tripadvisor. The noodles and rice and cashew and sweet and sour and dumpling dishes were yummy! I suggest you drop in! The lads behind the counter did a good job in customer service!

We had a take-away from here at the weekend. We watched as the girl who had taken our orders took money from another customer and then scooped her unwashed hands into the seaweed & cashew nuts before transferring them to take-away containers. She then wiped her hands on her jeans before serving the next customer. We decided to take the risk of eating the rest of the meal - it was ok at best. One chicken dish tasted rather odd. We wouldn't use them again.

Good Chinese take away. Just as you expect off the menu. No complaints. Quite slow but at least you know cooked to order.

what to do when you get unexpected visitors have menu in home everyone chooses, phone in order ready 15 to 20 mins dash out only 2mins away. met by friendly staff food piping hot. seats and papers to read if you have to wait, premises very clean.

We tried kw for the first time given them the benefit of the doubt as we had heard picked reviews needless to say we found our chicken chow very bland and the egg fried rice horrid lotus up the road is much better sorry kw

When we placed our order, we could not understand the person on the phone and there was such loud background noise, we really found it extremely difficult to place our order.

We holiday in Wareham about 5 or 6 times a year and most times we visit we have a takeaway from KW. The food is always really tasty, fresh and is good value. So we would strongly recommend it. But the one downside is that unless you order by phone and just turn up, you have to wait a long time. Sometimes, like Saturdays, the wait can be 45 minutes. And often the place does not seem that busy. Other Chinese restaurants seem to have the speed of cooking a bit more sorted out. If KW did this, they would definitely get 5 stars.

Food was gross. Kung Po Chicken was a strange red colour. King Prawn balls in batter were good to be fair though the sweet and sour sauce was just sour. Curry was sweet. Fried rice was not freshly cooked. Would never eat here again.
