Golden Gate Takeaway

Golden Gate is a Chinese takeaway on Kilbourne Road in Belper, on the residential parade east of the town centre. The Derbyshire Times named it as one of seven of the very best Chinese takeaways in Derbyshire — a regional shout that puts it well above the average neighbourhood Chinese, and the takeaway aggregators back this up with around 520 customer ratings averaging four stars.

The menu runs broader than the standard Cantonese list — Thai red and green curries sit alongside chow mein, sweet and sour, chop suey, salt-and-pepper dishes, ribs and a crispy aromatic duck section. Reviewers single out the not-too-greasy cooking and the timely delivery as the consistent strengths; less-warm reviews flag occasional bland sauces and dry rice on quieter nights.

The shop is set up for online ordering through Just Eat and its own site and trades evenings only, with later closing through the weekend. Pricing is in line with the rest of the Belper Chinese takeaway range. A useful go-to for households across Belper East, Heage and the lanes towards Crich.
