Empire
About
On Orkney, Empire is a Chinese restaurant at 51 Junction Rd in Kirkwall KW15 1AR, and it trades under the name Empire Chinese Restaurant.
A rating of 4.2 out of 5 from 363 reviews gives Empire a well-established reputation in Kirkwall. First-time visitors should expect a busy, well-reviewed Chinese restaurant rather than a quiet back-street spot. Stromness, St Margaret's Hope, Finstown, Hoy, South Ronaldsay and Westray are all reachable from Kirkwall by road or ferry.
Summer brings long daylight hours and crowded ferries, while winter sailings are often cancelled by weather, so travel timing matters for anyone coming from the outer islands. Rain falls throughout the year on British islands, and Atlantic gales are common in autumn and winter, which is worth packing for.
With 363 reviews at 4.2 out of 5, Empire draws a substantial and settled following in Kirkwall. Kirkwall is the practical reference point for finding the restaurant, and the other Orkney settlements lie within reach for anyone travelling in from elsewhere on the islands.
