Wok Hey

Newcastle Upon Tyne has a new favourite for Chinese takeaway, and it’s called Wok Hey. This spot has quickly become known for its straightforward, satisfying approach to classic dishes—think generous portions of chow mein and perfectly steamed rice. Whether you’re after a quick lunch or a hearty dinner, the kitchen here turns out food that’s consistently fresh and full of flavour, without any unnecessary fuss.

The chow mein is a standout: noodles wok-fried until they’ve got that slight char, tossed with your choice of meat or veg in a savoury sauce. The rice dishes are equally reliable, fluffy and studded with ingredients that don’t skimp on taste. It’s the kind of cooking that feels both familiar and exciting, made with care and speed. Order online for delivery or collection, and you’ll see why locals keep coming back.
