Yan Som

Yan Som on Stramongate is a Chinese takeaway that has served the Kendal community from this historically significant street for a number of years. Stramongate runs alongside the River Kent as it curves east of the town centre, and the cluster of independent takeaways in this stretch — including Yan Som and its neighbours — serve the residential streets between the town centre and the eastern suburbs. Online reviews specific to Yan Som are limited, suggesting a business that operates primarily on local regulars and telephone orders rather than delivery platform trade. The Cantonese menu covers the familiar range of starters, noodle dishes, rice combinations, and set meals that characterise Chinese takeaways across Cumbria, serving the straightforward appetite of the Kendal community in this part of the town.
