Golden Star

Golden Star is one of the most decorated Chinese takeaways in the east of Glasgow, winning the Best Takeaway award at the Scottish Business Awards in 2024. The kitchen at Barrachnie Road has been trading for over 40 years, accumulating a loyal following for its Cantonese cooking with a Glasgow accent. Salt and chilli dishes — chicken, beef and chips — are the standout sellers, and the panko chicken and honey chilli chicken draw particular praise from reviewers and food bloggers. Korean Singapore noodles and the Golden Star special fried rice are frequently cited as must-order dishes. A dedicated gluten-free section means coeliac diners can order with confidence. Consistently high standards justify the drive from across the city.
