Reviews Overview
Most Liked
Diners rave about the quick service typical of Platform 8; many meals are ready just 20 minutes after ordering. The Katsu Curry Rice Bowl stands out as a fan favorite, celebrated for its vibrant flavors and generous portions. Customers also appreciate the fresh quality of dishes, with reviews frequently noting the non-greasy and healthy aspects of the food. The Korean Fried Chicken garners significant praise, often cited for its crispy texture and savory taste. The welcoming staff contribute to a positive experience, always ready with a friendly smile.
Most Disliked
While most reviews are glowing, some customers mention the lack of a delivery option as a downside, preferring the convenience of home delivery. A few diners express the desire for a wider range of vegetarian options, although there are vegetarian dishes available. Additionally, as a cash-only establishment, some customers find it challenging if they come without cash on hand. Lastly, the compact space can lead to a limited dining experience for those who prefer to eat in rather than take away.

Surprised to see any negative reviews! We always choose Platform 8 when we fancy a Chinese takeaway. All the taste and quality you'd find in a restaurant but at a fraction of the price. Furthermore, we have always been very particular about hygiene and wouldn't go anywhere else because of this, not worth the risk! Have loved their food since they owned Little China up in Stowupland. So glad they moved back to Stow! Staff always lovely and polite. Thanks!

I run my own food business, I appreciate how platform 8 serve their food . the chefs special curry is absolute full of flavour and really tasty. some dishes are a little too overpowering but some may like this. I would recommend people trying this Chinese, especially the rice bowls which are huge, tasty and value for money

We had a very tasty meal from here last week. Very friendly staff. Very reasonable prices. They’ve really made an effort with the decor as well, it’s lovely. The chicken balls were nice and crispy and the sweet and sour sauce was just right. I would definitely recommend and I will definitely be returning soon😊
