Quality dining in Newton-le-willows

“Spectacular food! My favourite restaurant to go too. Iv been plenty of times and had different meals and it's always been excellent. Staff are very helpful”

“We ordered a take away from their website while on the way home from work. We'd had a busy day and just needed a chilled night. I'm ridiculously fussy, and my partner and I run a restaurant so are picky. The food arrived early. We had salt and pepper chips; chicken fried rice; crispy beef and sweet and sour chicken. Oh my. I've literally never had Chinese food like it. It was clean, you could taste every individual flavour; it was delicious. The delivery driver was really lovely too. My other half suggested it as he's been once before for a collection, and he noted how clean their business is. Absolutely gorgeous food, excellent service and highly recommended. Thank you xx”

“We got cod and chips, sausage and cheesy chips. Fish was very soft and tasty, peas were nice, nice melty cheese and saudagr was warm and crunchy. Nice lunch”

“I don’t understand the negative reviews, my chicken and donner kebab was perfect and the chaps at the shop were lovely, will definitely order again”

“Excellent experience tonight with my wife and 2 daughters. Food is excellent as well as the service. Not our local so was apprehensive, found Panchi via tastecard. Made the 30 min journey and have to say will be back. What stands out is they control the heat of their dishes. I've had 2 stars spice in other places and it's blew the head of me. Tonight the spice level was controlled really well. Decent prices as well even better with a tastecard. Parking can be a pain but there is a big car park about 4 minute walk just around the corner and it's free.”

“Best chippy around for miles. Never visit the chippy but this one is a real treat and we use it often. The fish served is huge and fresh and you just can’t fault it, the chips are cooked to perfection and the gravy is delicious. The proprietor is serving a tremendous treat.”

“Absolutely LOVE this place! We have just discovered this little gem and couldn’t be happier. The drinks, the food, the attention to detail and the finest ingredients help make this place one of Newtons best. Lovely owners and lovely staff. Well worth a visit.”

“Visited this restaurant for a meal with the family. It was a beautiful cush setting, rather cosy if you will and felt very homely. All the staff were very friendly and attentive. Their generosity knows no bounds. The food was fresh and mouthwateringly delicious, the selections they have were absolutely divine. I, for one, will highly recommend locals to visit this brilliant establishment. If you love an old school curry made with heart and Bengal devotion, then this is the only place to be.”

“Was my first visit today the food was spot on and the staff are very friendly I would highly recommend”

“Extremely small place, very cramped! 4 small tables with limited seating. Very clean, bright and modern. Quickly fills as it seems very popular. Staff went above and beyond to help me order, being super friendly and helpful. Portion sizes are very generous and steaming hot when served or packed for takeaway. Signature Satay Squid Skewer: the sauce was spicy and nutty, and the squid was chewy and smooth. Pork in Cantonese Sauce with rice: the large portion of pork was cooked well; not too tough, but with some bite, and smothered in the Cantonese Sauce with a sufficient amount of sticky rice to soak it up with. The sauce was sweet, sticky and plentiful. Overall, very satisfying food and a generous amount of it.”

“Just had an incredible experience with the XO fried rice from my go-to Chinese restaurant. The aroma that filled the room when I opened the container was mouthwatering. The rice itself was perfectly cooked—not too dry and not too sticky. The XO sauce, with its rich umami flavor, was distributed evenly, giving each bite a bold, savory kick. Generous chunks of shrimp, char siu pork, and vegetables added wonderful texture and flavor. The balance of ingredients was spot-on, making every mouthful a delightful mix of tastes and textures. A truly satisfying dish that hits all the right notes. Highly recommend!”

“We were looking for a Chinese and found Hong Liang. Just note they ONLY TAKE CASH, so take some. They are very reasonable and the food was amazing and big portions.....the ladies were absolutely lovely too. Absolutely go here as you won’t be disappointed. We had mixed curry with salt & pepper chips, salt & pepper chicken, special chop suey and sweet and sour chicken. Stunning! Absolute recommend it”

“The victoria is the place to be in all weathers, with a warm welcome from all staff they always have a smile on their faces. Pints, shots, spirits and mixers are amazing and presented outstandingly. Thank you to Maria”

“Great clean nutritious food. Owner is a top bloke too. Nice place”

“Love this chippy best in newton staff are friendly food is delicious”

“I have the chicken and shish and its very very nice,always comes with lovely fresh salad,this is the best kebab shop i have found in the area”

“We tried The Dragon for the first time last Friday 5 April, having been let down by our regular supplier. The food was beautiful, the duck was both crispy and tender and the chicken in the curry and sweet and sour was far superior to what we have been used to. Plenty of home made chips added to a fantastic meal. Will certainly use you from now on.”

“Go for a breakfast here now and again and I'll keep going back because it's one of the best breakfasts iv had. Big portions and quality food. Staff are friendly and polite. If your looking for decent food, at a good price, look no further.”

“Always fresh hot food, great salt n pepper really spicy. Great tasting food, smaller portions but quality brilliant. Nice staff too.”

“Good takeaway! It's our go to place for fish and chips. Quick and easy ordering and collection, good tasting fish, well cooked chips and nice peas. We even treated ourselves to a sausage, which was nice.”

“Kerry has exceeded my expectations with the outcome of my dining room table, so pleased with it! Can’t wait for her to do my other items to match my table!”

“I stopped going here just before COVID due to the change in the quality of the fish and chips and the portions, I however called in last week on passing and I was very surprised, the fish was cooked while I waited and the chips also and they were the best I have had from anywhere in the area. Thought it might be a one off so called again yesterday 26/ 7/21 and they were delicious again . Portions are better to and I will be going again.”

“Ordered a couple of times now the food has been great every time, piping hot when it arrives and speedy delivery”

“The food is fresh and delicious. The pickup time is short and there’s no waiting.”

“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”

“Ordered what we thought would be two meals for delivery, but the portion sizes received were very generous. We were happy with the quality of the food, the prices, and the delivery time.”

“Both takeout and deliveries are always quick and with good service. Food is good and they have a big selection of options: kebabs, burgers and fish & chips. Good pricing as well compared to other places in the area”

“Brilliant, absolutely brilliant Pizza and Garlic Bread, strongly recommend.”

“Best Chinese takeaway in town by far. They're really nice too.”

“The pizza was absolutely amazing—perfectly cooked, with fresh ingredients and incredible flavor! The service was just as impressive: quick, efficient, and super friendly. They really know how to make you feel welcome. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving top-notch pizza and excellent service!”
