It's great having seating up & down stairs, but a lot of the time the upstairs is closed to customers. If you order something that needs making, they will bring your meal to you once it's ready. The store is also now franchised.

Since it's refurbishment, McDonalds is presented in an array of splash dash bright new colours and furniture - in line with the crazy Ronald himself. The service counter is still located at the rear of the restaurant, adorned by reasonably trained serving staff who generally greet customers with a smile. Like most restaurants changes can be made to the menu - i.e, try request a Chicken McSandwich with Big Mac Sauceand the majority of time your requests will be honoured. Prices are cheap and cheerful, exactly like the food.

Only time there was a problem was a few weeks ago when the popcorn chicken was recalled, although you just got extra 'mini fillets(crispy strips). I have no idea why KFC ever changed crispy strips to mini fillets when they are exactly the same. I went in tonight and didn't have to queue, went straight up and ordered with my order completed in just a couple of minutes. Although the coating on the chicken wasn't as much as I'd like it to be.

As this is my local takeaway, I've visited many times…read more It's... alright. It's not the best place in the world but it's not terrible either. Here's a list of good and bad factors about it - I'll leave you to decide which are which. - They are open seven days a week. Unlike most other chip shops, this means Sundays. - The portions from the fish counter are huge. We will often buy a medium bag of chips and find that it feeds two quite adequately. - The Chinese side is very quick to prepare the food, but tends to be quite greasy. - Similarly, anything cooked in batter on the fish counter will be dripping with grease... - ...and the chips tend to be cut thick, so there's rarely many crunchy ones in a bag. It tends to be busy, but people are generally served very quickly. It's well worth telephoning to place an order if you're going during peak times (5:30-7pm most nights, especially Fridays). Newbury has many other good Chinese takeaways which are worth investigating. I've struggled to find a truly outstanding chip shop in town though; although the two branches of The Plaice are alright, local consensus is that the Howan is better. Don't make an effort to go out of your way to get here, but if you're close by it'll hit the spot.

I felt like it was exactly the same type of fast food Chinese that was get back home in America. We had the pork balls, fried rice and a mixed veggie dish. All of it was very good.
