Carr Lane Chop Suey House

Carr Lane Chop Suey House is a long-running Chinese-and-Thai takeaway on Carr Lane, the residential street that runs back from the Grimsby Road corridor into the central Cleethorpes pocket between the High Street and the Boating Lake. The shop is firmly a takeaway with no dine-in option, and notably cash-only — a detail worth knowing before turning up.

The kitchen runs a wider board than the average parade Chinese: alongside the standard Anglo-Cantonese chow mein, sweet and sour, satay, salt and chilli and curry range, there is a serious Thai sauce section across beef, chicken and king prawn dishes, and a noticeably extended roasted duck list with lemon, orange and Peking sauces. That Thai-roast-duck angle gives the shop a different profile from the more strictly takeaway-Cantonese kitchens on the surrounding parades.

Reviewers on TripAdvisor and Wanderlog consistently call out the speed of service and the depth of flavour in the dishes, with the roasted duck specials picking out as the items reviewers come back to. Trade is collection-and-delivery only, with the kitchen running evening-only opening through to roughly 11pm.
