Magic Wok

Magic Wok is the Chinese takeaway at the King Street corner in Keelby, the small village west of Grimsby on the A18 corridor and one of the original Viking-settlement villages of the Wolds edge — the name comes from the Old Norse for "keel ridge farmstead", and Keelby was already a sizeable settlement at the time of Domesday. The takeaway sits at the heart of the modern village centre.

The menu is the traditional British-Chinese spread: set meals, chow mein, foo yung, sweet and sour, Cantonese-style curry, satay, and a starter list of spare ribs, pancake rolls, sesame prawn toast and crispy seaweed. Like most of the small-village takeaways in this corner of West Lindsey, the shop trades evening only and relies on a steady village clientele rather than passing footfall — the A18 is the main road, but most through-traffic does not stop. Reviews are practical rather than glowing, focusing on the consistency of the kitchen and the friendliness of the counter staff. Delivery covers Keelby itself and the closer hamlets, with collection from the King Street shopfront the simpler option for villagers.
