Forum Fast Food Chinese Takeaway

Forum is the Cantonese carry-out at the lower end of the Ashby High Street parade — the same long suburban street running parallel to central Scunthorpe. The kitchen runs the standard Cantonese-takeaway menu with the sweet-and-sour chicken and the salt-and-pepper chips picked out most often in reviewer notes, alongside the chicken curry, the special fried rice and the chow-mein variations the surrounding Ashby estates expect.

The shop holds a Google rating just above 4 out of 5 and is one of several Chinese operators trading the same Ashby strip — Forum sits at the south end with Double Dragon, Sandor and Cherry Blossom further along, so the parade carries an unusually dense cluster of competing Cantonese kitchens. The operation is delivery-and-collection only with no dine-in seating, opening evenings and trading through to late close. Reviewer notes also pick out the speed of the pickup — the small unit means most orders are ready within ten minutes of phoning in, which has helped Forum hold its corner through the years.
