Great quality sweet and sour chicken. They made it Hong Kong style the way that I love it. If you're looking for THAT sweet and sour chicken (iykyk), order from here.

We spent ages looking for a place to have dinner in Ambleside and could not find space so ended up getting takeaway. The food from this place was fantastic! We have quite a few Chinese meals and they are usually pretty rough but this place puts them all to shame. I will definitely go back! Keep up the good work lucky dragon.

Exactly what you’re looking for in a Chinese takeaway- really tasty food, 5* hygiene rating, quick service and good price! We ordered food for 2 people for tea which came to just less than £10pp. Food was ready within 10 minutes of ordering on a busy Saturday night in the middle of summer! Do note there isn’t much space inside to wait so on a rainy day we would recommend preordering or bring an umbrella to wait outside! Also remember it’s cash only!- Service

For a chinese for 5 people, under £60, and to be as tasty as it was is a rare find. Staff were lovely, and gave us a free bag of prawn crackers. Dishes were yummy and were still fairly hot despite the walk up the big hill. Food was very non-greasy also, and the chowmein was bursting with lovely fresh veggies. Beautiful meal, thank you!

I’m from London so I hate to say this, but this is one of the best Chinese takeaways I’ve ever had. I had sweet-and-sour chicken and salt and pepper wings and it was hot and crunchy after collecting it. Took no more than 10 minutes total. 10/10 would recommend. God bless Chinese people.

Banging food as always (got the Singapore vermicelli + salt & pepper chips). This is my go-to takeaway when visiting Ambleside. Food tastes great, generous portion sizes, and very good prices.

Our third time in Ambleside and our third takeaway from Lucky Dragon. Superb as always. Placed order by phone, ready on time when I arrived to collect. Delicious food. Reasonable pricing. Strongly recommend stir fry pork with ginger and pineapple. We'll be back.

I ordered a couple of portions of salt and pepper chips here and they were great. Very generous portions and the chips were nice and crispy with lots of flavor. Will definitely call in here again. Please note that they only accept cash, so come prepared.

Good food, balanced out but prices are Pretty steep. The food tastes good with a balance of flavours. I will visit again but the prices are my main concern, we bought 2 mains with 2 egg fried rice and it was £18. Anyway it’s good food and I recommend having dinner from here.

Tried this place as staying round the corner and thought I would get an average Chinese takeaway. Boy was I wrong! The food was delicious!! Had a bit of a wait to order and collect but definitely worth the wait. Chicken King Bo was amazing. Staff friendly. Would definitely go back. Possibly one of nicest Chinese take aways I have ever had.
Really good Chinese to feed 5 people with different dishes, could order ahead, and a very reasonable price
