Broughton Chinese

Broughton Chinese — the High Street takeaway also known under the family name as Yau's Broughton Chinese Takeaway — sits in the parade by Anchorage House in central Broughton, the village on the western edge of the Brigg parish that runs along the High Street up to the green. The operation is a long-running family business that has been part of Broughton's evening rota for years and trades across the village and into the western side of Brigg town. Reviewers on Tripadvisor and Yelp pick out the sweet-and-sour Hong Kong-style chicken and the salt-and-pepper chips as the standout dishes, with the salt-and-pepper offer particularly popular among regulars; portions are repeatedly flagged as large and ingredients as visibly fresh. Vegetarian sections are clearly marked on the menu, which is unusual for a small village Chinese of this size. The shop runs as a takeaway and a local delivery service rather than an eat-in restaurant, and serves a residential Broughton catchment that doesn't have many alternatives — the village is small enough that the only other obvious evening food shop is the chippy a few doors up.
