Pings Takeaway

Pings sits on Exeter Road in Exmouth, a straightforward Chinese takeaway that does collection and delivery only - there is no dining room here. Food is prepared fresh each day, and the kitchen leans on a handful of signature dishes: aromatic duck, roast spare ribs and a solid range of seafood, alongside the usual chow mein, chicken and beef dishes, king prawn options and Thai-style curries. Vegetarian dishes run through most of the menu categories too.

Ordering is set up for convenience, through the website or the Eatzy app, with meal deals aimed at feeding a family without much fuss. It is open every evening except Monday, running from 5pm to 10pm through the week and half past ten on Fridays and Saturdays. Among the dishes that come up most in reviews are the crispy beef and the shrimp curry, with chicken balls and prawn crackers as the default order for anyone eating with kids. It is a no-frills neighbourhood takeaway built around a fixed, familiar menu rather than anything seasonal or experimental, the kind of place locals order from on a Friday night without needing to check the menu first.
