We first ranked Eastleigh's Chinese takeaways earlier in 2026 — this is the refreshed 2026 ranking, re-pulled from a fresh Google Maps scrape across the whole borough (not just the town centre), so a few names have moved.
The Eastleigh Chinese Takeaway Rankings
1. Lily Garden — 34 Burns Rd. 4.6★ from 198 Google reviews; reviewers repeatedly mention cash only, polite staff.
2. Lotus House — 39 Summerlands Rd. 4.5★ from 123 Google reviews; reviewers repeatedly mention portions, prawn crackers.
3. Dragons Wok Takeaway — 441 Fair Oak Rd. 4.5★ from 113 Google reviews; reviewers repeatedly mention korean fried chicken, bento boxes.
4. Water-Margin (Southampton) — 72 Botley Rd. 4.4★ from 734 Google reviews; reviewers repeatedly mention buffet, birthday celebration.
5. China Town — 9A Lower Northam Rd. 4.3★ from 166 Google reviews; reviewers repeatedly mention gluten free options, pancake roll.
6. Woks Hot — 1b Lower Northam Rd. 4.3★ from 162 Google reviews; reviewers repeatedly mention flavourful food, portion sizes.
The short version: the names at the top of the table are still the safest bet, but a couple of newcomers and boundary-area spots (Fair Oak, Chandler's Ford, Hedge End) have joined the list this time round — worth trying if you've never ventured past the town centre.
