Tasty House

Tasty House is a small Chinese takeaway tucked onto Granville Road in the Pelham residential area south of central Gravesend, a short walk from the busier Pelham Road shops. The shop has traded under a couple of names over the years — locals will still refer to it as Golden Palace or the New Tasty Cuisine — but it has run continuously as a Chinese counter-service takeaway for delivery and collection.

The menu is the standard British-Chinese list — set meals and standalone mains across the usual sweet and sour, black bean, curry sauce and Cantonese-style stir-fry sections — and the shop runs primarily on delivery to the surrounding Pelham, Christianfields and Riverview Park residential streets. It is the kind of neighbourhood Chinese that picks up on quiet weeknight orders and family takeaway nights at weekends rather than going head-to-head with the central Gravesend dining-room operators. Reviews across Tripadvisor and the delivery platforms run mixed in the way most volume British-Chinese takeaways do — some calling out the pricing as cheaper than the central competition, others less convinced — but the shop has held its trade on this stretch of Granville Road through several rebrands, which is its own evidence that the local order book is steady.
