Four Seasons

Four Seasons is the second Chinese takeaway on the Victoria Avenue parade in Borrowash, sharing the small strip with Chinese Express and the village fish bar. It is a small kitchen aimed straight at the village evening trade — collection and short-radius delivery into Borrowash and Ockbrook.

The board runs the standard British-Cantonese list with chicken curry, sweet-and-sour chicken, chow mein and a soups-and-starters section. The shop has a vegetarian section broader than the village-takeaway norm, which the Find Me Gluten Free listing picks up as a useful detail. Trading is the standard evening shift, opening at five and running to eleven. Reviews online are mixed — regulars who praise the sweet-and-sour chicken balls and egg fried rice sit alongside a smaller pocket of less-satisfied customers, a pattern common to two-Chinese-on-one-parade villages where loyalties divide between near neighbours. The shop trades on Just Eat and Uber Eats alongside the website and phone orders. The Borrowash village shape — two Chinese, one fish, one pizza, one Indian — means each operation runs lean on a fixed share of the evening trade.
