The best restaurants serving Chinese food in Windermere Applethwaite and Troutbeck South Lakeland North West

A fairly small, simple and quaint restaurant, but excellent value and delicious Chinese food. The chicken and sweetcorn soup is some of the best I have ever tasted. Well seasoned and the texture is perfect, as often some places make it way too gloopy. The prawn toast had more prawn in it than virtually every other place i have been, furthermore you can tell its homemade rather than the oh so common freezer to fryer ones made with a prawn and chicken mix. The hot garlic beef steak was absolutely divine, so tender and spicy, a standout dish. Only downside, the sweet and sour wasn’t great, I have much better elsewhere, but the rest of the food is so good it doesn’t bother me, I just don’t order it anymore! If you have somewhere to eat at home, there isn’t much advantage to eating out at the restaurant compared to as a takeaway as its a simple setting, but regardless the staff have always been very friendly and catered to our needs well. The best Chinese in Bowness/Windermere and it’s not even close! (And trust me, at the time of writing we have been to them all!)

Good food, excellent awareness and care with an allergy order. Great service with accurate timings when placing order for when order would be ready. Pricing and portions good.

The westview restaurant itself is a well-appointed small bijou Oriental restaurant. However, on this occasion we attended to buy a carryout meal of Chinese food. Although the food in itself was reasonable, we had once sweet and sour chicken with rice and one salt and pepper chicken with thin noodles. Total price £41 and yes they did charges for the prawn crackers too I believe. Probably the most expensive Chinese carryout I've ever had in my life. Japanese and Korean also available. Food was tasty but nothing that blows your mind and at that price sorry but we wouldn't be back for take out. Maybe to eat in the restaurant that might be okay. You'd expect to believe those prices in a restaurant but not for a carryout, but we knew the prices when we went in and as it is the only one in town, we never had much choice. Perhaps that's why they charge such extortionate prices for takeout food.
