2 hours for fish and chips to get delivered. I won't be ordering from here again. When I rang up to enquire after my 1hr and half wait I was told " we running late what you want me to do? Just wait few more mins." 30 mins later my food still hasn't arrived. Then when it does get here it's cold.

We just had a family meal delivered for a birthday celebration, One of the issues was something that was delivered that was not ordered and something that was ordered was not delivered, So we phoned up and they arranged to send another one out within 20 minutes, But they wanted the incorrect food sent back.( I wonder who would’ve got that?) After serving up what we did have my husband and I had chicken green peppers and black bean sauce, It was tasteless and disgusting. No flavour whatsoever and the chicken just did not taste like chicken., So I phoned up and asked to speak to the manager, And I found her quite RUDE to be honest. I was just given an opinion on the flavour of the food. I certainly will not be ordering from there again, and I would highly recommend that they concentrate on improving the food quality, but more importantly, the customer service

After ordering a £50 order for a birthday celebration, we received our meal. One item was incorrect, which we called up about and the item was replaced. We then served up the rest of the food and proceeded to eat. The chicken in black bean sauce was one of the worst meals I have ever eaten. The meat was rubbery and didn’t taste like chicken, and the flavour was non existent. I phoned up again as a courtesy to let them know that the dish wasn’t tasting correct, and I was met with the rudest person with 0 customer service ability. I order from here frequently, and this is the last time I shall be ordering.

Went and spent £50 pound at this place, and the whole family had a bad stomach afterwards, I usually enjoy the food from here but it’s definitely gone down hill, feel like the food has just been left out and not fresh which has obviously gathered bacteria. Otherwise everyone would have been fine and not felt stomach cramps all night. Clean your cooking surfaces properly before you serve food Making people ill isn’t acceptable. Will never return. Even if you paid me

Shocking service tonight. Placed a phone order for delivery directly with shop as we had been let down previously with online orders not arriving. After an hour and a half wait a phone call was made to the shop to ask about our delivery we were told its in the car. We waited another 30 mins (more fool us!! )and have come to the conclusion we have been lied to about status of the delivery. We have rung and cancelled!!!! Really disappointed as we have used this shop since they opened and have received excellent service in the past. Will NOT be using again.

We order mainly English food from here because we love their chips! They are always so fresh and just the right thickness and softness! My friend usually has fish and she says that’s delicious. I have roe which has just the right amount of batter and I love their curry sauce because it’s not too spicy. They also deliver if you’re within a reasonable distance which is great and they are always on time. I’m sure their Chinese food is just as good because it is always a very busy shop and I highly recommend it.

Very rare we use these as Thorplands Chip Shop is loads better but went the other night and asked for something that shows on the online menu plus on their menu in the shop and got a rude response, awkward waiting for the food ordered, wasn't offered salt and vinegar which is a standard thing that is offered. Definitely won't use them again and will just travel else where, gone down hill from years ago as used to be the best but now it's not worth going too.

Never order from here. Keep changing the prices of the meals. When I questioned the woman, she didn’t have a good enough excuse. They change the prices, however, they feel suits them. My advice is order from somewhere else. Do not waste your time or money. This is the last time I’m ordering from here. Not good enough.

I will never order food from YING WA Chinese Takeaway again. This is the 3rd time they have served us rubbish food. Ordered munchie box and it was filled with mainly chips. chicken wings and two spring rolls missing from the box from the listed items. Another day ordered over £45 worth of food and barely any sea food/chicken were added in the food (They just packed rice and thought they will fool us because we ordered many plates) Then yesterday ordered 2x fried rice and history repeated itself, rice was very oily and very salty. part of the rice was just white rice meaning it wasn't even stared well and only few see foods added. Their food used to be good but now the whole family has noticed their poor quality food and complaining bitterly. The lady on the phone is very rude also. She lacks professionalism.

Update 13/01/22: raising my review from 2 stars to 4 because the past order we have had from you has come quite quickly and within 30 mins of ordering. My family have been customers with ying wa for 20+ years. Each time we have ordered recently, using your website, we are beyond appalled at how late the food is. Today 24/12/21 we ordered at 18:20 and order was confirmed at 18:43 for delivery at 20:00. It is now 21:42, we have not received food. First time we rang you said our order wasnt made yet. 2nd time we rang you said its on its way. If its an issue with the amount of drivers available then employ more. I do believe that this is the last time we are ordering from you.l due to the recent service we have endured.

This cash-only takeaway is still well worth a visit. Asked for two small pieces of cod and a medium portion of chips to share, because we know from past experience that the portion sizes are very generous here. £10.60 for two pieces of battered fish and some chips. Anyway, their 'small' pieces of cod were both big enough to fill our dinner plates, with a small amount of room left at the side to pile up the chips! We were there shortly after they opened, wondered if we would be served reheated leftovers but they cooked it from fresh while we waited. The fish was absolutely gorgeous, batter was light and crispy. This place is famous throughout Northampton for their awesome chips with gravy but we didn't have gravy on our chips on this occasion. Definitely worthy of five stars. We took their takeaway menu away with us, so we might try their chinese food next time. It's a takeaway, so they don't have any tables. Recommended.

No trip to Northampton would be complete for me with a feed at the Ying Wa. Situated in the picturesque Ling's local centre shopping precient, nestled between the green rolling hills of the Eastern Northampton housing estates of Ling's and Lumbertubs, this busy Chinese Takeaway and chippy combo caters for both tastes - Eastern and European. The menu is an eclectic mix of Prime and factorable numbers with nos 7 and 20 standing out. I had the 64 and my date had the 16 & 77. Both were great. This is a cash only eatery which helps keep trouble making hipsters from bothering the clientele. The staff are super friendly and the segregated counter ordering arrangement (Chinese cuisine & Chippy) helps keep rival fans apart. All in all good eats. We always stop on our way to our country house in Rectory Farm.

i give ying wa a solid 5 star review they probably have the best chips in northampton and i can walk there in a reasonable time i recommend you buy the small £1.30 chips if you want the best value for a snack but there curries are also peng. Also the regulars who use ying wa's take away are also polite and well-spoken never seen a bad soul there in my life.They are also usually very efficient at making food i rarely spend longer than 10 minute in the shop even during peak hours. I would definitely recommend this chip shop take away if you live local however the delivery service is also quite good if you live a bit far.

Can only assume this has changed ownership recently. Used this place for many years as a favourite. Not using anymore as yet again this evening have had to call after an hour to find out where food is, only to find yet again they have delivered the wrong food which we are now waiting to be replaced, because despite repeating the order back to my husband, went and wrote down something else instead. Sad to see a respected local business go downhill in this way

I ordered special fried rice, two portions of vegetable spring rolls, and mixed vegetable side. It took 18 minutes which I think is excessive - but possibly because the food was brought out and left on the side. The veggies were bland and boring, beige and oily. The spring rolls were pretty much dough with the odd pea and cube of carrot. For the privilege, I paid £13. I feel like I paid way too much for what I got, and I won't go back unless it's for chips and I'm already there.

Booked an 8 o’clock table, at 9 o’clock we were told the chef was going home. Some of the food didn’t arrive, had to re order then the bill came which included a 10% service charge which included 10% on the drinks.
