Most Disliked
While many customers are thrilled with their experiences, a few have voiced concerns over occasionally longer wait times during peak hours. Some reviews mention that certain dishes may vary in quality, but these instances seem to be exceptions rather than the norm. A minority of diners might find it less appealing if they prefer more traditional sit-down dining experiences, as the casual vibe leans towards fast-casual cuisine. Lastly, some patrons have hoped for a broader selection of vegetarian options, as the menu primarily features meat dishes.

Always nice food from Canton. The best chicken balls in Daventry. Nice and crispy and not soggy and too much batter on the inside like other places. Curry is good too. Never disappoints us and we are regulars. Really nice owners and good prices.

Love the canton House. It is cash only on delivery but at least the food makes up for that small inconvenience. Favourite is the Singapore rice and Crispy shredded chilli beef. Recommend to anyone looking for some good takeout in Dav

I really like it. Tasty, Competitive prices and can deliver but I think at a cost, I always collect. Normally pretty good on timings so your not hanging around waiting and when you spend certain amounts the add in prawn crackers and a bottle of drink
