Reviews Overview
Most Liked
The standout feature at Peters is undoubtedly the quality of the food. Regulars rave about the crispy spring rolls and the crispy aromatic duck, which consistently impress with their flavors. Many appreciate the generous portion sizes, often leading to leftovers for later.
Another point of praise is the affordability of the menu, allowing patrons to indulge without breaking the bank. The weekly surprises, like complimentary dishes, delight visitors and keep them coming back. Add to that the casual vibe, perfect for unwinding after a long day, and you have a recipe for success that embodies the spirit of Wigan.
Most Disliked
One common frustration is the lack of delivery options. Many fans express disappointment as they wish they could enjoy Peters' renowned dishes in the comfort of their homes. Instead, most visits require a trip to the takeaway or a reservation for dine-in service. Furthermore, the peak hours, especially on Saturday evenings, lead to noticeable queues and longer wait times, which can be inconvenient for hungry diners.
While the takeaway is wheelchair accessible, some customers note that the layout can feel cozy, making navigation a bit tight during busy periods. Customers often suggest timing visits outside of peak hours or utilizing their phone ordering system to alleviate wait times.

My favourite Chinese EVER (and I've tried plenty!) - I grew up in Wigan and used to have Peter's regularly, it's literally iconic and everyone knows about it and loves it. The food is amazing, it's a family run business and it feels good to support it. I have moved away from Wigan many years ago but still have family there and getting food from here is literally a highlight any time I go back to visit. My partner who's not from Wigan loves it more than me now and always asks to go when we get the chance.
