This place does not look very clean and it was cold inside and steamy with a greasy smell from cooking. Bathrooms are filthy, and the place appears dingy and seems they rarely ever clean the floors or windows, China House is in overall disrepair. If Hawley had a department of health I think this place would be closed for cleaning. In the corner by the front window I found what looked like mouse droppings The owners attempt to punish those who wrote bad checks by displaying them on the wall. They only accept cash most likely to avoid paying taxes by who am I to judge. They have old dirty soda cans on display so you can see what flavors they offer. If you just want tea they make a face at you. All they really care about want is collecting your money. I would bet money that they eith gamle it away hide it in their shrine to Budda. The woman who takes the orders and loves to take your money does not seem very happy, she barely looks at you when you walk in. She will even charge you extra if you want noodles for dipping, (these were traditionally free in the past), maybe the 65 cents they charge for noodles will help them pay for their childrens college. The food is just average for chinese food, quickly thrown together and can be a lot better, the employees clearly do not care and the best thing for this place would be for it to change ownership. The China house is quite expensive for a take out restaurant and with all the cash money they make I would really hope to see much better. Sorry China House I hope you can turn your business around before it is too late. Maybe this review will help you to get your act together. Down Town Hawley is such a small place wouldnt it be a beautiful place if everyone gave it their best effort. If will try again in a few months. If things are better I will certainly report it. Thank you for reading!

A bit pricey, doesnt accept any payment other than cash. Conveniently enough, they have an ATM machine at the take out counter, where they are more than happy to charge a $2.25 ATM fee, in addition to the pricey food. The food I ordered was disgusting and the chicken in my chicken & broccoli meal contained mostly fat and skin and barely looked fully cooked through. I threw it out. The sweet & sour chicken was edible, however, the sweet & sour sauce was already congealed into a jello like consistency even before having the chance to eat that meal. Its out of the way, but drive to Panda in Lords Valley. I have been a customer for 15 years and have never been disappointed.

What happens when you dont have competition--the owners dont appreciate your business. Although I get food there on at least a monthly basis, and I give their kids a tip each time they are there, the owner doesnt seem to see fit to give me a calendar because I didnt spend $25 on food. I wouldnt dare say anything as they could contaminate my future orders. I do like the food, but the lack of appreciation is disappointing.

Absolutely the worst Chinese food. Very greasy and the staff is very rude. Ordered over $40 in food and they wouldnt provide any extra napkins or soy sauce. The food tasted like it had just came out of a microwave. Id rather drive to Hawley or Dickson City where the food is much better and FRESH.

For a take out place this is my go to. Eating in isnt the best considering the place isnt well kept, but dont be fooled by that. The food always comes out the same so you never have to worry about bad food coming with you out the door. Prices are fair, food is great.

Food is good and so are the prices. Food is better here then in most NYC Chinese places. Beef with oyster sauce is great, general tsos chicken has no spice to it, tastes like sweet and sour chicken.

Dont eat here. My husband was so sick after eating their chicken and Brocolli. Spent the next day throwing it up.
