Sandor Takeaway

Sandor — also seen on directory listings as Sando — is a small Chinese carry-out near the northern end of the long Ashby High Street parade, the suburban shopping street running parallel to the main Scunthorpe town centre. The shop runs as a five-evening operation, with Monday and Tuesday as its standing closed days, and trades collection-only rather than offering delivery.

Across TripAdvisor, Restaurantji, Sluurpy and Yelp the reviews settle in the four-out-of-five band with the salt-and-pepper chips, the BBQ dishes and the kung-pao chicken consistently picked out as the strongest items on the card. Several reviewers note the friendliness of the staff and the speed of the pickup — the small unit means orders are typically handed across the counter shortly after arrival rather than the longer Friday wait common at the busier Ashby Chinese kitchens. The menu sits squarely in the Cantonese repertoire — set meals, chow-mein and curry, sweet-and-sour and Singapore variations — with no Thai or regional Sichuan dishes listed.
