5 /5 Ashley Byron: I’ve tried a lot of local takeaways in South London, but Cherry Takeaway House on Perry Hill is easily one of the best! Every time I order, the food is hot, fresh, and full of flavour. You can really tell everything is cooked to order — nothing tastes like it’s been sitting around.
The tofu is perfectly balanced (crispy outside, tender inside), and the shrimp fried rice is always packed with generous portions of prawns. Their chow mein is another must-try — not greasy, just deliciously seasoned and full of fresh noodles.
What makes Cherry stand out even more is the friendly service. The staff are always warm and welcoming, whether you’re calling in an order or picking it up in person. They remember regular customers and genuinely seem to care that you enjoy your food.
Prices are very reasonable, portions are generous, and the quality is consistently high. You get proper value for money here — great food without the fuss.
If you’re in Catford or the Perry Hill area, skip the big chains and give Cherry Takeaway House a try. It’s a true neighbourhood favourite that never disappoints.
