"I am writing this review on behalf of my Grandparents, who ordered a meal to accommodate 4 people from this establishment for their 2020 Christmas dinner. When trying to complain, the Manager was abrupt, dismissive, rude and only expressed an interest in the complaint when my Grandmother mentioned that she had taken photos of the food in question. This is a very lengthy review, but I would urge people to read to the end , as my Grandparents have experienced appalling service from the manager of this establishment, and people need to know about this. They ordered paid for 4 meals and starters over the phone. Upon collection of the order, it was clear that the order was incorrect and not up to a satisfactory standard for example the rice orders were wrong (3 fried rice instead of boiled rice some kind of congealed pineapple chicken dish was supplied instead of lemon chicken, the chicken omelette was salty and soggy as it had so much oil in the container, and the chips were very dry and salty. Not worth a penny paid, or worth the trouble my Grandfather took to drive to collect the order . As mentioned above, the manager was very abrupt and dismissive of my Grandmother 's complaint (his initial response being what do you want me to do about that .......Even though he could see this had ruined their Christmas meal (this was supposed to be a rest for my Grandmother who cooks the other 364 days of the year . He was very keen for my Grandmother to throw the food away, she offered numerous times to return it to his establishment, but his reply each time was to throw the food away. When my Grandmother mentioned that she had taken photos, and then went onto mention that she could post the photos on the internet, the manager suddenly changed his tune. After a lengthy phone call, it was agreed that another order could be placed, free of charge for 1st January 2021. My grandmother checked again to see if the manager wanted to see the food as proof he said that he didn 't want to see it, and they agreed that my Grandfather would collect at an agreed time. On 1st January my Grandfather arrived at the agreed time, and nobody answered the door. Eventually somebody answered, and the manager was summoned. He asked to see proof of the original order, and so my Grandfather (bear in mind we are talking about a couple who are in their 70 's went back to his car, got his phone and took it back to show to the manager the photos. The manager 's response being nice photos no food and sent my Grandfather away. In the freezing cold, on New Year 's Day. Utterly disgusting treatment of a formally loyal customer. On the upside, my Grandfather happened to notice that another establishment nearby was open Wok Wok. Even though he hadn 't placed an order with them in advance they very kindly offered to cook his food to order if he didn 't mind waiting. Their food was perfect, their service was second to none and my grandparents are delighted to have found a new Chinese take away that respects and appreciates their custom. So, in the words of my Grandmother goodbye Golden Crown and hello Wok Wok."

"Not the best experience. Joined for lunch and what we wanted to order was unavailable. We order a chicken toasted sandwich and ham, egg and chips. It took about 45 mins to an hour to come out. The sandwich come out first and it looked as if it had been thrown together and didn't look appetising. Had to wait another 10 minutes for the ham egg and chips to come. I still hadn't eaten the toasted hot sandwich as I wasn't given any cutlery or sauces (it was meant to come with mayo in the sandwich but it didn't and was dry I had to call another waitress over to ask for them and the other dish to come out. 5 minutes later the cutlery and sauces came, and so did the ham egg and chipa and the salt was in packets (ok fine! but then they were all empty (people had used them and put the empty pockets back in the tray . Couldn't be bothered to ask for more again. Ketchup was in a heinz bottle and as well as hellmans mayo... the ketchup defo wasn't heinz as it was watery and vinegary. I don't mind cheaper ketchup but it was more the principle of stating it was the premium stuff when it wasn't- this wouldn't be any good for people with potential allergies. Not sure if the mayo was actually hellmans (again more of allergy purposes . The waitress didnt ask if we had any allergies which i believe is now a legal requirement. A lot of other people also weren't getting the food they were wanting as it wasn't available and the waitresses didn't know what table was what and asking people what they had ordered. I still paid for the meals as I can see they are trying to run it as best as possible and I mentioned at the till this wasn't a good experience but before I return this does need to be rectified."
