We have used Lee's Cottage ever since we moved to the Towcester area and can honestly say that we have never had a bad meal from them. Food smells great and is mouth wateringly tasty and normally we can't get it home quick enough! Efficient service and always willing to provide the extra little bit. It's just a shame they don't deliver. We wouldn't go anywhere else out of loyalty now.

Best Chinese take-away in the area. Phone in your order and c. 20-25 mins its ready to collect. Plenty of food; you'll never go hungry. Dishes are well cooked.

Always amazing customer service and always tasty food! Can’t speak highly enough of this place. Their duck pancakes, sweet and sour chicken, crispy beef, chicken satay. Prawn toast, egg fried rice, all faultless. But best of all is their special curry. I ask for no mushrooms in it (because mushrooms are evil) and it’s spectacular. Big thumbs up from me! Oh and it’s cash only and collection only.

It’s such a. Shame that we are relocating again. This is the best Chinese I have ever had …. And we have moved around uk a lot due to my husband job. Good portions and plenty of meat in each dish. Delicious. Highly recommended

I ordered a couple of dishes in the takeaway. Lovely lady running the front of house, very patient and helpful and true to her word the meal was cooked quickly. It was nice and I would be keen to try other things from the menu.

We were shocked to see how the lady out front was running around, answer phones, taking payments and dealing with collections on her own with a smile such dedication. The food is hands down the best Chinese we have tried and we would recommend everyone to eat here as it's the best Chinese around.

The food's great - fresh and no grease or gloopy sauces. Definitely our favourite. The crispy beef is crispy. Wandering Dragon is huge and recommended, as are salt & chili king prawns. During the pandemic, they are giving you a timed slot to collect your food so there aren't too many people there at one time.

Fresh ingredients, full of flavour, not at all greasy. We had an absolute feast and was still some left over for the next day! I recommend the salt and pepper prawns, and the chicken satay skewers! Yum!!

Salt n Chilli prawns with every meal. This is not a suggestion but an instruction. Think of it as step one to a happy stomach. I dream of these juicy, crunchy, tasty treats. The staff are lovely - friendly and personable. Especially when you've bought half a ton of prawns from them over the years... nom nom nom...

Lees cottage delivers consistently on quality and value. We have used Lees many times and it is our Chinese of choice in towcester. Our favourite dishes include the crispy chilli beef, wandering dragon along with all dishes on the the set menu for 3 people, (we usually add couple of additional dishes for variety which makes a great meal for four people). They are always accommodating and happy to make adjustments (extra chilli etc)We have also tried the other options in Towcester but they don’t live up to the standard set by LC

Another regular takeaway for our household, but if its Chinese there really is only one to visit in Towcester, and that's Lee's Cottage. We have been to other locals, but for price and quality LC is great. Always 20 minute order time which is fine

Lee's Cottage has to be the best Chinese Takeaway I've ever had. We used to live in Towcester and would go here every time we wanted a takeaway. We now live in Northampton and still travel Towcester to get our chinese from here. The lady on the front desk is very polite and friendly. Would 100% recommend, nothing to fault.

I have already reviewed this takeaway a while ago giving a very good review as I was a regular customer and wondered why later newer reviews complained . I never thought any more but I had not been for a while, I went a couple of days ago what a difference , yes it's clean and friendly but they must have a different chief I ordered chilli and salt chicken wings and special fried rice I got home really looking forward to my long awaited treat .

Regular here for many years clean friendly average price but good well made food love the special fried rice it's not like others where it's plain rice with a curry sauce with a few veg they do the works mixed flavours all meat pork chicken and prawn chopped with veg and on top sliced chicken and pork with a fried egg and special sauce . Nothing is to greasy verty very busy so I tend to ring ahead . They have the best reputation never had an orde wrong or complaint that's over a 15 year period tried other place but this is the best . Thoughnindomwish they'd do the Chinese steamed dumpling they only thing they miss .

This is a take away not a restaurant. We use it regular. Once a month maybe more. The dishes are freshly cooked and high quality. We like ours hot and they put extra chilli's in. Service is prompt and with a smile. I'd recommend booking Fridays & Saturday nite.

I have been using Lee's Cottage for Chinese Take Away for many years. I have only had cause to complain on TWO occasions , and each time it was sorted without any trouble. The staff are very helpful, and the Menu is excellent. If there is anything not on the menu that you require, they will do their best to supply it.

Ordered food and the card machine in big foodie was down? So asked if I could pay in card on arrival or when machine was working as I am a regular customer but the owner took the food back and refused to take payment with a photo of my card! Ok well I’m not hungry as four seasons is beautiful but that must be abit annoying for the delivery driver what a joke 😂😂 never order from here again

If you want authentic Chinese food don't buy from them. Don't waste you money. If you like good quality of food don't buy from them . But if you don't care about quality and quantity then buy from them.

its amazing that you can make food as bland as that, sure there would be more taste in the tubs it was delivered in..and talking about the delivery well if i didnt see the drivers car i would have assumed it came on the back of an iceland van (frozen) they also charge you £1.80 for a can of drink that turns up with 75p on the can.. sure that's a bit naughty.. pop a mail to trading standards one feels.
