On Wimborne Road in Winton, on Bournemouth's northern edge, Lee's Dynasty is a long-established Chinese takeaway. Rather than offering table service, it runs purely on collection and delivery, and its menu ranges unusually widely, stretching from standard Chinese takeaway staples into Thai and Malaysian cooking as well.
The menu
An extensive set of categories organises the dishes: starters, dim sum, soups, then separate sections for beef, chicken, duck, pork and seafood, alongside curries, noodles and rice. Crispy aromatic duck is the order most people come back for, offered in three sizes so it works equally well for a solo dinner or a group of friends, and Lee's house special crispy noodles are another regular pick. Sitting alongside the more familiar Cantonese-style dishes, the Thai and Malaysian options give regulars more choice than a typical neighbourhood takeaway provides. For groups who'd rather not order individually, set meals are priced per person.
Good to know
Vegetarian (V), gluten-free (GF), nut-containing (N) and wheat-containing (W) dishes are clearly flagged throughout the menu, and sensibly, given how wide-ranging the offering is, anyone with allergies is asked to phone ahead before ordering rather than depend solely on the online menu. Tiger and Tsingtao beers, plus a short wine list, are available to accompany your order. You can order via the restaurant's own website or by phone, with both collection and delivery on offer; checking that your postcode is covered is worth doing before committing to delivery.
Mondays are a closed day at Lee's Dynasty, with evening service running the rest of the week. For more takeaway and restaurant choices nearby, browse our food & drink guide, or check our wider things to do guide for the rest of Bournemouth.
