China Brasserie is situated at the far end of Haywards heath just across from the main high street. They are a fairly large restaurant that also offers a take away service. Their main pull is an eat as much as like menu that costs £10 per person. Rather than a buffet, there is a set menu with a selection of starters you can choose from and also a range of main dishes. I went there with a friend and we tucked into 2 plates of starters (always the best bit of Chinese food in my opinion) and then a round of mains. The selection is not quite as broad ranging as some of the other restaurants in town offering a similar deal, but the food is well cooked and the staff are extremely polite and helpful. I would have liked to have seen some seafood main dishes and perhaps the option for crispy duck for a slight extra charge. The wine list is passable and reasonably priced at standard restaurant rates. The decor is a little strange though and they have elected to hang a number of paintings of Oriental women in various attire that look a little like the work of an impressionist on a bad day. On a plus side, there is also a massive fish tank stocked with a number of interesting tropical fish. All in all, a good place to come and get a nice amount of food for a reasonable price, but I would warn that you shouldn't order more than you can handle, as they will charge on any uneaten dishes. read more

Not a good experience. Service really bad too busy answering phone for takeaways, cant get rid of you quick enough despite no customers and no smiles what so ever. Lighting is not very subdued with bright light and with the bags of stacking takeaway building up on a spare table you feel like your sitting the kitchen. Food was ok but very overpriced. read more
