Lee's

About

Lee's is a Chinese takeaway at 131 Castle Road, Bedford, open 5pm to 10pm Wednesday to Monday and closed on Tuesdays, hygiene rating 5 of 5. The postcode is MK40 3RF and the shop sits in the middle of the Castle Road shopping parade. Those hours come from a survey on 15 April 2026, and that Tuesday closure is the detail most listings for this shop get wrong, so it is worth checking before setting off. The number to ring is 01234 212538, and the kitchen is Cantonese, for collection and delivery. If you are searching for it by street, note that Bedford has two businesses called Lee's and they are not the same place: this one is registered with the Food Standards Agency as Lee's Takeaway at Castle Road, and Lee's Kitchen is a separate takeaway on Duckmill Lane, MK42 0AX, about a mile away across the river. The Castle Road shop holds a food hygiene rating of 5, the top score, from an inspection by Bedford Borough Council on 26 January 2026, which makes it one of the more recently inspected takeaways in the town, and its penalty scores were zero for hygienic food handling, 5 for the condition of the premises and zero for confidence in management. Lee's Kitchen also holds a 5, but from an older inspection on 28 August 2024. Third-party menu sites carry opening times for the Castle Road address that are plainly wrong, including a 5am start, so the surveyed evening hours above are the ones to work from.
