About Wan Choi - Renowned Reading Chinese & Thai Takeaway
Wan Choi was created to bring the care, warmth and attention to detail of true Asian hospitality and catering to Reading. With years of experience working across hotels and restaurants, we knew how much effort goes into a great dining experience. We wanted to offer that same standard through every order, every dish, and every customer interaction.
Our Story
Wan Choi was founded with a simple goal: to bring the warmth and precision of hospitality into the world of Chinese and Thai takeaway. With years of experience in hotels and restaurants, I saw how much care goes into a great dining experience — and wanted to offer that same standard through every order. Our kitchen is fully halal, sourcing certified ingredients and honouring authentic cooking methods, from wok-fired classics to bold Thai additions. With over 100 dishes, our menu balances tradition and variety, guided by customer feedback and crafted in-house sauces.
We treat every order with care — from packaging and timing to customer service — and our location on Oxford Road in West Reading keeps us rooted in a vibrant, diverse community. Investing in our own app and online ordering system lets us offer better value and build direct relationships. If Wan Choi were a person, it would be warm, reliable, and quietly ambitious — with a vision to grow while staying true to its values. Whether it’s a customer sharing a memory sparked by our food or a milestone behind the scenes, every moment reminds us why we do this. We source responsibly, explore sustainable packaging, and aim to give back as we grow — one meal at a time.
Our Ingrained Ethos
Our mission is to serve high-quality Halal Asian cuisine with honesty, passion, and consistency. We believe that great food starts with respect for ingredients, so we source certified Halal meats and fresh vegetables daily. Every dish, from wok-fired Chinese classics to vibrant Thai curries, is cooked using authentic methods and carefully crafted house-made sauces.
Our values guide everything we do.
Quality, we take pride in taste, freshness, and presentation.

Our Kitchen & Craft
Our kitchen is fully Halal, and our menu now offers more than 100 dishes. We balance traditional recipes with customer favourites, keeping flavours bold and consistent. Our chefs prepare bases and sauces in-house, giving our dishes a depth of flavour that reflects years of learning and refinement.
We also understand that convenience matters. Our investment in our own online ordering system and app helps us offer better value, faster service, and direct relationships without third-party fees. This allows customers to enjoy the full Wan Choi experience with ease.
