Lakeside Takeaway

Lakeside Takeaway on Main Street in Alexandria takes its name from the Vale of Leven's proximity to Loch Lomond, whose southern shore at Balloch sits just north of the town. The menu covers the full Cantonese range — Kung Po dishes, Szechuan options, spare ribs, sweet and sour, chow mein and a comprehensive rice selection — with deep-fried wun tun and rib selections popular as starters. Regular customers describe the food as piping hot, great value and consistently well-portioned. The kitchen runs into the late evening daily, making it one of several Chinese takeaways on Alexandria's Main Street competing for the town's substantial residential and Vale of Leven catchment. A dependable local Chinese with a well-established following.
