    Viewed the menu, lots of choice, called and placed order. It was Friday evening and never expected there to be so many people waiting. Bit of a chat with locals then called. Beef chow main, chicken, rice and sweet and sour dish. We had a chat with my partner and both enjoyed the meal. There good helpings, no bad taste and empty plate. My first time there and would surely return again. Been again, crispy duck with plum sauce, beef with fresh ginger, onion, crispy duck chow mein.

    My family loves the food, well cooked and delicious can never fault the chefs. Whatever you order best believe it will be delicious 😋 😉. The guys who take orders could be more friendly,however nomatter the rude cashier that never stops me from ordering. I drive all the way from Bell Green like a 25 minutes drive and it is worth it. Keep it up chef's

    Been to lots of Chinese takeaways in Cov, but this one is the best! Consistently good, no matter what dish you order, and the curry is the best out there. Goodness knows why these sort of places don't take card payment though!

    It had been a very long time since I visited the Allesley House take away. Having been a local and a regular many years ago, now I am local once again I wanted to see if it was still any good. The reviews were good, the 5 star hygiene status also reassured me it was in good hands. We ordered similar food to what we would normally have to compare plus some nice things. We were very impressed with the potion sizes, the price and the flavours were beautiful. Their curry sauce was much nicer than normal, it wasn't the same flavour as a easily available shop bought sauce. 1 item that we did love was the szechuan chips, they were new to us but we really liked them, spicy with green chillies and other spices. Great service, it is cash on collection. They don't offer a delivery service. Nice to know it is the same family running it from when I used to go there some 20 plus years ago.

    Ordered a takeaway and when we got home 15mins away they had forgot to put sweet & sour source in with the chicken , phoned them and had a very rude staff member answer with an really bad attitude he eventually said he would give me a free source next time, I said how’s it free when we have already paid for it. I asked for a replacement sweet & sour chicken next time and they said no chance. He put the manager on who started shouting at me and was extremely rude!!! The food was over £21 and what a waste of money, terrible. Never will we use this take away again!! Disgusting behaviour!!!!

    Absolutely love this for a Chinese. Very good food and quality xx. But we ordered cheesecake deserts today for a special celebration and for £4 each were awful. Poor size. Poor quality and an absolute rip off! Thankfully I didn’t buy 4. I assumed from the description that we could share 2. How wrong were we! The portions were so small and very expensive! Stay away from the pudding menu!!! Awful xxx

    Really nice food, looked very appetising and fresh and not overcooked. Portion size was good. Take away was hot when I arrived to pick up the order. Would of been 5 stars but the vegetable spring roll was mainly beansprouts and not much else. Lots of vegetarian choices. Was good value for money.

    Asked for specific vegetables to be put in in the veg curry which has not been an issue in the past but on this occasion the order note was not followed. It was strange to find cucumber in the veg curry as I have never seen this before. Asked for free prawn crackers as the order was above £30.00 but was told this would be extra. Two girls came in to pick up their order and asked for free crackers and were initally told the same thing as me but they then told the lad at the till they used to work there so the flustered young lad said fair enough and gave them the crackers right in front of me. I got a call on the way home to say that they had forgot to put one of the currys in my bag so ended up getting free crackers anyway lol.

    ordered via phone, was told it was £28 on the phone so took £30 with me as they only take cash. when i got there they asked for £31.80 i proceeded to tell them that’s not what was told and i was told that it was only £1.60 and to go get the right money. the tone and attitude of the person talking to me and told me to take food off my order when it was there mistake in the first place. wouldn’t recommend as the attitude from staff is poor

    Never been here before so thought we would give it ago. Few things to point out... collection only, cash only, no freebies (e.g. prawn crackers). Cost £40 which was quite expensive for 3 people. Salt and pepper chips were terrible, literally just soggy chips with some salt and pepper sprinkled over them. Salt and pepper chicken, was dry and had no flavour. Chow mein was extremely greasy and again not much flavour. Will not be attending here ever again.

    Always had fabulous tasting food - never had any problems in the many years we have been buying from here. Service always been great - polite and very efficient and fast. Even my mum who is 93 loves the food so we regularly get the family together for a take away feast, Daughter came to visit from abroad for a few weeks and first day back today and she wanted Allesley House take away . It was delicious. Never disappoints.

    Crispy duck contains very little duck, tin foil dish full of some type of greasy coating that is used to bulk the dish out

  • 4/5 Kerri R. 1 year ago on Google
    Love the food only things could improve is if the started delivery and taking card payments

  • 2/5 nikita b. 1 year ago on Google
    Flavours fell flat, we ordered kung pao and it tasted horrible, just a salty sauce and nothing else. The prawns and black bean were ok, fried rice wasn’t great. Order was incorrect first time around and we had to drive back to pick up the corrected order… would have been best to just get a refund. Would look elsewhere.

    Lovely food from here!! Always beautiful 👌🏻

    A good local Chinese, always busy but offer quick and friendly service. The food is good and the flavour of their curries are so much better than the generic curries you get in lot of of Chinese takeaways nowadays. The rating would have been 5 stars but the chips were over cooked on both occasions I visited. I will be going back. 👍

    Been using here for 18 years and don’t anymore because the attitude of the obnoxious specky guy not caring after you have phoned a order and still waited 20 mins.

    Visited recently during the lockdown, can now collect at the door which is really handy. Food was very tasty, large portions. Best in Coventry by far! Thanks all 😊

  • 5/5 Chloe L. 2 years ago on Google
    We always have a good experience and delicious dinner when we go to Allesley House! We love ordering online qnd receiving a fairly accurate collection time estimated. Just remember it's cash only!

    Never had a bad takeaway from this place, one of the best in Coventry. I would definitely recommend. Only down side is they don't deliver.
