I must say this place is great. I visited with my family on sunny day and this place was fresh with a lot of air inside, well ventilated - very nice friendly, almost family like atmosphere. Good food, portions big enough for a grown up man to chase away hunger unlike in few other restaurants in York. Reasonable prices. I enjoyed this place a lot. Very friendly staff, not just pretending to be friendly. Also very clean and tidy place.
I wish you guys all the best for you and your families. I do not live in York so cannot visit as often as I would like to.
Only one suggestion, it would be great to be able to order some desserts like ice cream or something sweet for children.
Great place I totally recommend.

I lived in HK for many years and came back to York recently. This is a real taste of Hong Kong and even brought a tear to my eyes. Excellent in every way. Thank you so much 🙏

I ordered stir fried hor fun with beef and a hot milk tea. The food was great! It tasted just like what they serve in Hong Kong cha chaan teng. Tbh it was even better than some chain restaurants like Cafe 100%. Usually I can't finish a whole dish of stir fried hor fun with beef because of its oily taste, and I always leave the onions and bean sprouts on the side. However this time I finished the whole dish ngl!!!
The ppl were very nice too, and the siu yuk shown in the photo was on the house! I will definitely come again xx

This shop serves original recipe of Hong Kong Style Cantonese food in 70s. It's authentic and has some differences in what Hong Kong food are being served right now. If you want to try the wonderful Hong Kong style dishes, this will be the perfect place in York.

The famous Hong Kong restaurant in York. Situated next to the York minster for about 3minutes, it’s in a good location when you finish off touring York city and looking for food afterwards.
Very friendly staff, cozy atmosphere, food are amazing. Hong Kong Barbecues are the highlights but there are more to try.

Authentic hong kong style restaurant. Loved the beef chow fun and milk tea here. A must-go spot in York!

One of the best and authentic cha chaan teng in the U.K.! Stir fry beef udon (as rice noodle sold out), fried tofu with salt and pepper, sweet and sour chicken rice are really nice. However the French toast is only made by one slice of bread and no peanut butter inside, would be much better if they put too slices of bread with peanut butter as it’s what it should be in Hong Kong! Milk tea is good but I prefer a stronger tea flavour. Recommended this restaurant!
