Sunrise

Sunrise Chinese Takeaway on Clifford Street is one of Chester-le-Street's most enduring Cantonese-British takeaways — TripAdvisor reviews describe a 40-year-plus continuity under owner-operator Ken, with the shop scoring 4.5/5 across roughly 21 reviews and one reviewer calling it "the best by far in Chester le Street". Salt-and-pepper king prawns, salt-and-pepper chicken and the chicken curry come up repeatedly as the most-praised dishes.

The shop runs collection-only — there is no advertised delivery service — and trades evening-only on a typical Cantonese carry-out pattern. Clifford Street is a quiet residential side street off the main Front Street takeaway run. Collection from Clifford Street.
