This was a rare occasion for us to have a meal out since it’s expensive to eat out as a family these days. We decided to travel half an hours drive to visit Sans, which made it even more disappointing.The atmosphere was underwhelming as was the welcome. The staff aren’t unpleasant, but just quiet and not very warm.We decided to potentially spend a bit more money and treat ourselves to a special buffet menu to share between us, so that our children could try some other dishes. However, both the waitress and the manager were un-accommodating in changing just one of the five dishes to a beef chow mein, since one of the dishes was very spicy and not ideal for the children. After explaining that we were prepared to spend over £90 for a meal, we didn’t even think that such a minor change would be such a big problem. It really put a dampener on the mood and we were baffled why such a small request could not be accommodated.After being forced to order separately from the menu, two of the dishes were nice, however the remaining ones were underwhelming.We’d saved up to have a special meal out and were left feeling upset and disappointed. Such a small request could’ve dramatically changed the course of the evening. It’s a shame the management couldn’t see this.Many other restaurants would go above and beyond to help and appreciate their diners. Please respect your customers wishes - remember it could be a special occasion for them.

Fantastic first visit to Sans. The restaurant was buzzing with happy diners. Alfie served us beautifully. Dennis is a consummate host. The food was delicious. I tried a new noodle dish to me. ‘YoungChow’ noodles. Pork, beef and shrimp noodles with lots of veg. Not greasy at all. My husband chose his usual, ‘beef with ginger and spring onion’ and rice. He declared it to be, ‘absolutely lovely’. Well done Sans ?

This is the third time we have eaten at Sans restaurant, and each time the food has been faultless. The best lemon chicken I've ever tasted on our first visit , and tonight was the sweet and sour pork, which was lovely . The service is always good, and welcoming. My only small criticism is the restaurant is a bit cold, but would still definitely recommend.

I like it. Nice Chinese restaurant.

A lovely lunch, you could tell everything was fresh and each dish tasty. The service by Dennis was exemplary! Will definitely return and very happy to find a local Chinese restaurant that's open to eat in at lunchtime.

This was beautiful. There were a lot of bones that look like they didn’t belong to people, and some even looked blue, so that was weird. The atmosphere of the place was beautiful and there was a similar shop outside and when I asked what it was they said it was an ‘AU’. Anyway, the food was weird because I got served a ‘Gaster blaster’ and a ‘blue attack’ and a ‘bad time special.’ The service was spectacular, some skeleton guy came over and told a bunch of puns and served these ‘special attacks’. His brother, ‘Papyrus’ was the chef, the food was kind of burnt. However, overall, I would say 4/5. Thank you. Would come again and this time I’ll bring a friend.Wheelchair accessibility: My friend, Jevil, who can’t do anything, can’t go inside the door because he is in a wheelchair. He used to be able to do anything, but i am disappointed with this service. He started sobbing. He loves Sans.
Food was amazing, lovely owner, service was great. We will be

The cost of the evening was just far too expensive and having used the restaurant before we have decided this will be our last visit. We were 4 adults and 3 kids under 11 The costs can be summed as follows: 4 pints of singha lager £19.80 1 glass of house white £7 3.5 pints of blackcurrant cordial £21 We paid £48 for one round of drinks Each bowl of prawn crackers containing approx 20 crackers were £3.80. That is ridiculous The meals were just too small simply as We ordered no starters, 6 mains ( the two youngest kids shared a meal) we had 2 bowls of rice costing £22 with the meals and no sweets We were there just over one hour Total cost £170 It was good basic food but just not good value at all The drinks costs are outrageous

Just passing through but glad we visited Sans Chinese. We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. The owner was very welcoming & helpful. Would visit again if we lived nearer.

Portions way too small and food way over priced. Quality of food is excellent (I’d say five star) but you are forced to too many dishes due to portion size and each dish costs loads!
