Ordered from here once before and it was average but we decided to give it another go and then the food took nearly 2 hours to arrive, it was cold and wet and the delivery driver gave no apology. They also marked it as delivered 45 minutes before it actually came which i’m assuming is too avoid looking like a restraunt with bad service on just eat. Very disappointed and won’t be ordering from here again!

This was our second choice as our first order at another Chinese got cancelled and aren’t we glad! This was the best Chinese we’ve had, all fresh and piping hot even after being delivered 15 minutes away. High quality food and really tasty. We don’t normally order a takeaway due to being disappointed the majority of the time. This will be our new favourite!! Thank you

I recently ordered from Sweet and Sour, and I have to say, it was an absolute delight! I opted for their munchie box, and it exceeded all my expectations. Lovely lady behind the counter told me it could serve two people, however it could fill up me and my partner as well as the two kids! Very pleasantly surprised! Packed with a variety of delicious treats like crispy spring rolls, succulent chicken wings, savory ribs, and crunchy chips, it was a feast for the senses. Each item was cooked to perfection, and the portions were incredibly generous. The flavors were spot-on, and everything tasted incredibly fresh. Free prawn crackers were amazing as well. Plus, the delivery was prompt, and the packaging kept everything hot and crispy. Lots of vegetarian options as well, and they cater for many needs! If you're looking for a tasty and satisfying meal, I highly recommend trying the munchie box from Sweet and Sour!

This is our favourite Chinese takeaway! 4th time ordering from here tonight, again it didn’t disappoint!!! I rang up at one point to see how long the delivery would be, where I was met by such a sweet lady. She even called the delivery driver to check :). So glad I found this little goldmine. Fantastic food and fantastic staff :) Thanks for the free prawn crackers :)

I would like to warn you from ordering from this place, the sweetcorn soup had a can of sugar thrown into it, the chow mein was dry and tasteless, fried rice were reheated in the microwave and it’s the worst I’ve ever eaten, i am embarrassed to even mention the thai curry as it tasted like poison, we ended up throwing everything away and just ate a few bites from the chow mein and now we regret it🥲, gonna get some frozen food from Asda The food quality is overall very poor, the restaurant need to work on improving literally everything!!!

This is the reason God invented garbage bags. Soup - no salt, pepper, garlic or actually anything in it, (it was supposed to be "spicy") but was just some veggie leftovers with one lonely shrimp in it. My main I didn't even touch, just binned after tasting shrimp - one I got, probably died of natural causes, so I didn't risk to try the second one. If you order a main, be ready for some fun - vegetables look like they've been cut by a hatchet in arms of a drunk, pieces about 3cm wide. 20 quid and a romantic evening down the drain, cheers, guys. Anyway, if you plan to order from here, I have a suggestion - get some raw tomato, raw mushroom, raw onion, throw them under a lawnmower, whatever flies out - throw some MSG and soy with starch on it, and heat up 2 min 800w in microwave - trust me, it will be better.

It was the tastiest chinese I’ve ever had, I’m really picky but this has totally blown me away.The chips were cooked to perfection,the staff were lovely, the food was delicious and perfect, prices reasonable and I will definitely will be coming back very soon. I wish I could have this every day. I’ve tried lots of authentic Chinese dishes but this one is by no competition the best.

Been going to this chinese for about 2 months now. Food is outstanding and every dish we try seems to get better and better. Would highly recommend this place, and say it is comparable to a chinese restaurant. Try if you haven’t already!

Oh dear - what a disappointment - rice was inedible (re heated and put in a tray) and the king prawn dish was bland and ......simply can't word it. Is this because Fridays are busy?Nonetheless I simply cannot recommend this place. And you pay an extra £3.50 for delivery (wouldn't mind if I hadn't have had to put it in the food recycling box!) Ah well one off the list.

If this is the best Chinese in town then I'm getting an Indian , bland tasteless food, I think they need to change the chef!, The far East at its worst was better than these at their best I'm afraid.

Tried the new Sweet N Sour and the Delivery came really quickly, (about 20 mins) but when it came we were very disappointed. The food was bland, salt and pepper chips might as well have just been chips, I had noodles which smelled burned but they weren't, again very bland and tasteless, OH had OK chicken and he didn't rate it either again very bland and tasteless. Kids chicken nuggets were alright (you can't really mess them up!) but the kids sausage very overdone to the point it had a crust. Always worth trying new places but think we'll be sticking to The Village from now on.

Place open last week the decorations look very nice and clean, and better than Far East by a mile. And after order the munchie box and a few more dishes it taste fantastic and will definitely go back👌

Got to be the worst Chinese I’ve ever had the displeasure of ordering. Absolutely no taste and tiniest of portions ever. £30 without a free prawn cracker in sight. Gave it a go then binned it and then had to order from Wok Wok and bite the bullet. Disgusting.

The food was disgusting. Had to order twice. Would not recomend this place to anyone interested in a meal they can eat fully. Disgusting is an understatement. I feel like cleanliness and cooking lessons should be given to each worker. Appauling!

Disgusting.... Hard chicken, possibly not defrosted properly. Deformed reconstructed meat not worthy to be called chicken. We have ordered from here on a number of occasions when our normal takeaway closed. A number of times disappointed but this time was the last time

The Far East takeaway is one of the best and oldest takeaways in Newton. The staff inside know people by name and will happily engage in conversation. The food is fantastic and it's a treat to buy, we've been coming here for decades and nowhere else locally compares to them. They are not however on Just Eat (but do deliver) so it's best getting a menu from then as you pass and keeping it safe.

My go to Chinese, food is always good,not too expensive, and you're never waiting too long. Special noodle boxes are fab, great value too.

Possibly the worst Chinese ever. No duck in the duck spring rolls. The peking ribs had to have the meat ripped off as it wouldn't come away from the bone. Utter rubbish.
