May Oriental

May Oriental is a Chinese takeaway on Kingsholm Road, serving the residential district that takes its name from Kingsholm Stadium — home of Gloucester Rugby's "Cherry and Whites" — just around the corner. The kitchen covers the standard British-Cantonese repertoire: chow mein, fried rice, sweet and sour, black bean and oyster sauce dishes, with a delivery service that extends across the surrounding residential streets. Customer feedback online is divided between strong regulars who describe the food as fantastic and consistently high quality, and some frustrated customers who have experienced communication difficulties when orders go wrong. The shop offers a 10% discount through its own online ordering site. A neighbourhood Chinese takeaway that works best for those who have established their preferred dishes.
