Yi Pin in Hastings

We were recommended this place by a friend who gave it glowing reviews, so we thought we would try it. We ordered a delivery, which took longer than stated, then to our complete and utter disappointment the food was well below the standard expected. The sesame prawn toast was rubbery and very chewy, the duck spring rolls tasted stale, as did the rice. The Szechuan chicken was ok, the sweet and sour chicken had bone and cartilage in it and the person who ate it left the room to be sick, and unfortunately after that did not want to eat anymore; the chicken was also very grainy and had a strange texture and was also very chewy. The duck chow mien was below standard, the duck was overcooked and the noodles were very bland. It all seemed to have been frozen or left over from lunch time, reheated/nuked and delivered to us. All in all, we were very disappointed with the whole experience. It wasn't cheap either, although we did get a free bag of prawn crackers!

This is by far the best Chinese takeaway in hastings. Always fresh hot and delicious. We have had many a takeaway from here, and never disappointed. Good service and food . Thank you yi pin.

Good quality food. We've ordered a delivery quite a few times from them and always happy with the quality. More expensive for us than ordering from our favourite Chinese Takeaway in Kensington (London) - one of Britain's most expensive areas, so not the best value, but good food all the same.

After being 45 minutes late - chased them up. Fobbed off with it's out for delivery. It will be cold now I said. No it won't they said. If it is - ring us. Turned up eventually. Sure enough - stone cold. Rang them. Nothing we can do. Why did you tell us to ring up then? We'd like a refund. Can't give you a refund because you ordered through Deliveroo. Very rude and abrupt. Best part of 50 quid - threw most of it out. Never again. Avoid. Not worth 1 star but it's the least I could give.

I've ordered some bad Chinese meals in my time. In many cities, many times. It's in my experience the most hit and miss cuisine to order. So I ordered from Yi Pin with misgivings and quite low expectations... and I hit the jackpot. I've since ordered four times in the last month, and heres why: (1) Genuinely tasty food. EVERY TIME. Every dish has been good. Some have been amazing. Nothing has been sub par, not once. (2) Huge portions, EVERY TIME. And at really fair prices too, this is not an expensive place. This is real value for money. (3) Fast, hot delivery. EVERY TIME. No missing items, hot food, friendly delivery. I really can't fault this place, its honest, tasty, affordable, reliable... its a solid five stars. So much so that I wrote this review, and I'm never motivated to do stuff like this. The only downside to this place is they are going to make me fat, I'm getting addicted...

Have a dine in, small place but comfy, foods is good and big portions. Staffs is helpful and good service. First time here but is my father favourite spot. Will be coming back again

Fresh Food. Great taste , great service , time and time again, never lets us down, I love the food from here, they provide fresh food at a good price all round

The food was good but I'll be honest, when we went in there to collect our order, the prawn/chicken/pork balls were under a tea towel on the counter and the rice and noodles were stored in washing up bowls on the floor... Probs not going to order from there again.

The one thing I missed about London was a decent Chinese in Hastings - now found one in Yi Pin! Absolutely delicious food, delivered early, really fresh and tasty. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Always fresh and delicious!!! Best duck on orange sauce, dim sum that I’ve ever tasted before. Also very cheap!!!

Just had yet another delicious take away from yi pin. Can not recommend this restaurant enough, the food always arrives fresh, hot and tasty. I thoroughly recommend, and I wouldn't use any other Chinese, its by far the best in hastings. Thank you yi pin. Mrs ryles. Mount pleasant road.

Had a takeaway Dim Sum. Food arrived on time but it was devoid of any flavour. Totally tasteless. Won’t be ordering from here again.

I picked up box meal and chicken and mushroom meal and was throwing up for 2 days meal had been reheated and gave myself and my husband and a friend food poisoning, these people need reporting !!!!!

Stunning food, extensive menu and delicious. Ordered twice now and delivery both time in just under 35mins. I am so happy I found this amazing Gem of a Chinese. Finally just what our town has been waiting for!!

Had an excellent takeaway this evening from Yi Pin. Very tasty and lovely and hot. Very good value. Would highly recommend. Thank you Yi Pin.

Came highly recommended , lesson learnt we won't be trusting a friend again ! Ordered starters, came in a pizza box, all thrown together, over cooked some inedible, see photos. The egg fried rice was peculiar, looked like the whole bottle of soya sauce was...

Absolutely banging!! Everything was so fresh and tasty,best Chinese I think I’ve ever had! The salt and pepper chips are the one. Thank you so much

We had a takeaway this evening, I really wanted some dim sum and wasn’t disappointed it was all delicious we also had pineapple rice which I highly recommend!

Over a £100 on Chinese food and not one prawn cracker, not even a fortune cookie 😄 and the the food was just ok, be going elsewhere next time.

Yesterday evening on the recommendation of a friend we ordered a take away for delivery from Yi Pin of Queens Road in Hastings. We were at our son's house around a mile from the restaurant. The order was placed at 7.10pm and we were told...

After 2 phone calls and 21/2 hours late and the delivery man sitting in the car with my food for ages before coming to the door the food we received was shockingly bad which is such a shame as previously I have been pleased with...

In these uncertain times I prefer to take away if possible although I do eat in places occasionally. Ordered on just eat, £1 delivery. Very nice food, hot and arrived within 5 minutes of advised delivery time. The second time we have eaten here we...

Yi Pin doesn't look like much from the outside, but it's no Chinese greasy spoon. The food is actually cooked to a high standard and on par with Chinatown. Nothing tasted bad or disappoint. There's little or no msg (I know Westerners hate msg, but...

Had another great tasty takeaway tonight. Arrived fresh and hot. Would totally recommend. Thanks to yi pin, keep up the good work.

Introduced to this shop by a friend we have since had 3 takeaways every one absolutely delicious, lovely and hot, fast delivery and huge portions Def recommend

Moved to St Leonard's on Sea and ordered takeaway through Just Eat. It was hands down the best Chinese food I have ever eaten - and I've eaten a lot over the past 65 years, both in North and South America, France and Spain !!...

Had the nicest Chinese takeaway that I have had in ages! Such good value for money, the small box was absolutely amazing and I’d definitely order from here again! I love that you can chose the type of noodles in your chow mien too! Excellent...

Great food! I have been using the same Chinese for 17 years since moving to Hastings. But I use Yi Pin now, Great fresh food at cheaper the price! A1+.

This place is hands down the best Chinese in Hastings and probably the best we have ever tried elsewhere. The food is incredible, even the simple things like stir fried vegetables (which I would never order normally, but they hooked me the first time with...

Ordered for three people on Sunday. Arrived 95 minutes after placing the order although it was supposed to be 1 hour. I ordered Thai dish. I received a king prawn in batter bathed in golden syrup with few veg pieces. What was Thai about it?...

I hope that any of you looking for first class, delicious Chinese food, will scroll past this initial comment published by Tripadvisor....we ordered for the first time tonight, as 'lockdown' has seriously impacted on local restaurants. I am now a total devotee of Yi Pin...

Me and my partner order from here frequently and they never fail to disappoint. always arrives fresh and hot. Very friendly staff and quick with delivery

I use to go to a different Chinese take away until my father-in-law gave me a menu and now I don’t go to any other. I have now become a regular customer with them. They server great food, fast delivery and the staff are very...

Had a takeaway from Yi Pin last night..2/05/20. Just had to write a review as it was so nice. My neighbour recommended this place and ordered for herself and us, it defiantly didn't disappoint. Arrived freshly cooked and hot. Will definitely order again. By far...

Of all the Chinese restaurants in Hastings this one wins hands down great food . I have had food from this restaurant several times and it has never disappointing yet

The best Chinese take away for delivery! Since a leaflet came through our door we have always used Yi Pin Excellent value, always hot and delicious

Have been using Yi Pin for more than a year after trying out some pretty atrocious local alternatives. They haven’t let us down since - the food is always hot, delicious, and delivery is very quick. Don’t be put off by the psychedelic shopfront or...

If you're looking for a really tasty chinese similar to great london restaurants and takeaways then look no further! We had the most delicious salt and spare ribs, braised roast duck, ginger and spring onion roast duck and dim sum 😋 extremely tasty.

Couldn't be bothered to cook today,,,, so treated ourselves to a take away,, went right off of Chinese style take aways into we discivered Yi Pin, Asian take away in Queens Road, Hastings Have now had 3 in recent weeks,,, all of them really fresh...

We’ve used the Double D for years and tried Yi Pin when we had a flier through the door. Having used it ever since we’ve never had a bad takeaway yet! Husband loves the Salt and Pepper ribs, crispy duck is always good, and the...

Having previously had reasonable take- aways from here I was really dissapointed by my last meal. The soup was good as usual, thai rice was more like cous cous, very dry and very few ingredients in it certainly not value for money, braised pork was...

Ordered combo box and it arrived in a pizza box! When we opened we were shocked!! It’s just thrown together... hopes it would taste better than it looked but it didn’t! All of it was very dry and far too salty...

Have now ordered over 4 takeaway meals from here and never been disappointed. Good service and good food all freshly prepared.

Thought I’d give them a try as my usual Chinese was shut. Absolutely spot on. Big portions quality food. Will definitely be back.

We have been ordering a takeaway here for a few months and never had a bad takeaway- the crispy duck is lush, beef ho fun is so tasty - we have had lots of dishes and would not order from another restaurant (thank you Yi-Pin...
