Moon Palace

Moon Palace is the long-standing Chinese takeaway on the Scotter Road run, set away from the Doncaster Road and Frodingham Road clusters in the residential band east of central Scunthorpe — the Old Brumby and Berkeley side of the town that historically supported its own neighbourhood Chinese rather than relying on the central parades. The shop has traded for decades and is the local default Chinese for the surrounding streets — reviewers consistently describe it as the best in the area on portion-for-price, with a busy weekend trade that needs phone-ahead ordering to avoid the queue. The menu is the Cantonese-British standard local takeaways are built on: salt-and-pepper chicken, ribs and king prawns; sweet-and-sour and curry sauces; chow mein, foo yung and Singapore noodles; plus the chip-shop crossover sides that round out a Scunthorpe family order. It is collection-only and cash, which keeps the format simple. The shop holds a 5/5 Food Hygiene rating from North Lincolnshire Council.
