May Sum focuses on everyday UK takeaway and dine-in favourites. The menu is organised so you can move from signature menu favourites into sides, drinks, and deals.
What are the usual opening hours?
Most UK branches of May Sum trade through lunch and evening service, but exact opening times vary by location - check your nearest store before you visit.
Do they offer delivery?
Many May Sum locations support delivery through their own channels or major UK apps. Coverage and fees depend on your postcode and the branch.

Vegetarian-friendly menu favourites appear across the menu. Vegan suitability depends on cheese, sauces, and kitchen practice, so confirm with staff if you need a strict plant-based meal.
Is May Sum halal?
This listing does not mark May Sum as fully halal. If that matters to you, ask the branch directly about meat sourcing.
Are meal deals available?
Yes - look for meal deal or combo sections on the May Sum menu. Bundles are typically cheaper than ordering every item alone.

Start with Monday - Sunday (12:00pm-5:30pm) if you want a clear house favourite, then decide whether a meal deal saves more than separate sides.
