"Visited for a meal with family, my partner has been before for the creative menu offer but this is the first time visiting on a ‘regular’ night. Although it appears it’s not changed in many years the restaurant is clean and tidy, hosts are welcoming and the service is good, if a little slow at times. Food wise we all decided to go with the personal set menu. Hors d’Oeuvres, duck pancakes and 5 dishes from the main menu. The starters were decent, hot and fresh but aside from the ribs everything was a bit dry. Spring rolls, prawn toast, chicken and the seaweed were all dry with no sauces to go with them. Ribs were banging though and the crispy duck was also enjoyable. The mains were a bit hit and miss if I’m honest. The crispy chilli beef was neither crispy or chilli and bit bland really. The chicken curry was alright but nothing spectacular, as was the sweet and sour chicken. We had a chicken schezwan which was decent, nice bit of spice and the kung pao chicken was very enjoyable. None of it was wow though. Now if I’d had this meal for the £22 on the creative menu night then I think I’d have said it was reasonable value, not the best Chinese meal I’ve ever had but not too bad. The problem was, this meal cost over £200, nearly £45 a head which was a bit much for the quality of the food. A couple of beers aside it was all soft drinks. It’s known locally as a decent Chinese restaurant but I suspect this is manly for the all you can eat nights offering decent value rather than it being a high quality place to eat. By all means, if you want a decent fill of Chinese food try the all you can it ‘creative menu’ nights but I don’t think it’s worth a visit outside of these nights."

"My husband and I used to live near San Francisco, which has a large Chinese population. Some of the best Chinese food we ever had was in Chinatown S.F. We were lucky to have delicious and authentic Chinese cuisine right next door. However, since moving to the U.K. 10 years ago, we hadn't found a Chinese restaurant that lived up to our expectations until we discovered Spring Deer. We are thrilled to have found this place, as the food is absolutely fantastic. The menu is extensive and the restaurant boasts a traditional Chinese decor. The dishes are fresh and delicious, unlike many other Chinese restaurants we've tried in the U.K. The beef dishes, in particular, are incredibly tender and flavorful. We highly recommend the Beef In Black Bean Sauce. Spring Deer has been in business for over 30 years, and it's clear they are doing something right. Every dish we've tried during our five visits in the past few months has been fresh, flavorful, and aromatic. The family-owned and operated restaurant provides friendly and welcoming service, showing how much they care about their customers. Spring Deer is a popular spot, so be sure to make a reservation for the weekends. Walk-ins are welcome on Tue-Thur, but weekend tables fill up quickly. In addition to the Beef In Black Bean Sauce, we also enjoyed the kung pao chicken, sweet and sour pork, and chef's specials. The restaurant offers vegan and vegetarian options as well. If you're in the area and craving quality Chinese cuisine, Spring Deer is the place to go. Highly recommend for the food, atmosphere, and service."
