Food Quality and Taste
Pros:
"The food arrived quickly and was super tasty. I had the Massaman curry and the potatoes were just as tasty as the chicken and sauce."
"Generous amount of chicken and the duck noodles have a coconut taste with lemongrass, duck is also very generous."
"All the food is delicious, you can't go wrong choosing from the menu."
"Som tam is super flavourful with fresh ingredients."
"The chicken and pumpkin curry was amazing and I would highly recommend it!"
"The green curry reminded me a lot of the original curry, you would eat in Thailand."
"The chefs were amazing because everything had a genuine Thai taste."
"Some of the best Massaman Curry I’ve ever had."
Cons:
"Tom yum is on the sweeter side, wish it was less sweet and more sour."
"Everything (including curry and Tom Yum soup) is super sweet and terrible to eat."
"Pad thai was overly sweet and the chicken had a strange aftertaste."
"The spicy dishes are not as spicy as I'd wish."
"Taste toooooo strong. Sour and spicy like the seasoning is free."
"The curry was bland, not a hint of chilli anywhere."
"The main course of Bangkok Pad Thai was completely devoid of any flavour."
"The dis was very greasy and sweet and it looked like some of the vegetables weren’t fresh."
Service and Staff
Pros:
"The staff is very nice and the Thai milk tea is also very nice."
"Everyone who works there is so lovely, especially Katie who knows our favourite orders."
"The service is impeccable – attentive and knowledgeable staff elevate the overall experience."
"Received a very warm welcome from our Waitress Katie who was great the whole time we were there."
"The food was really lovely and the customer service was so extraordinary."
"Immediately felt welcomed and friendly."
"Really friendly staff and lovely atmosphere for dining."
"The waitress I had was nothing but pleasant."
Cons:
"Only issue was the food comes out as and when rather than in courses so a bit rushed."
"I would have enjoyed my dinner more had the waitress not been entertaining the four men openly doing poppers and disrupting other guests."
"The tomyam was too much on the sweet side... served by this particular waitress who was very impatient, rude, aggressive and confrontational."
"The waitress was rude. Its okay not to have the service mind but just don’t be unmannerly."
"The big draw back however is the staff are actually quite rude, pulling their faces when asking questions and dismissing us by flapping their hand at us."
"The staff members are very noisy and inappropriate especially the Polish female."
"The waitress said 'You can not eat here' when informed of dietary restrictions."
"After the waiter racially profiled two black men, the chef and other staff members did not aid the situation but just ignored what was going on."
Ambiance and Location
Pros:
"Cute place with pretty authentic Thai food."
"It’s independent, cozy, the food is no-nonsense amazing Thai food. Relaxed and casual vibe."

"The atmosphere of the restaurant make you feel like you’ve travelled to Thailand."
"Great little place in the Northern Quarter right in front of the car park."
"This is a super little place serving tasty Thai food at a great price."
"Lovely atmosphere, just the right side of quiet for my liking, and a great selection of food."
Cons:
"The restaurant is quite dark and feels a bit cave-like."
"Looks trendy but was sick for 4 days after. Probably salmonella."
"The place is nice, the staff are lovely but the restaurant was too cold inside and this made our dinner a little uncomfortable."
"The surroundings are very basic, so paying nearly £100 for a quick light lunch without starters I thought was excessive."
"There was a bit of a draught and the loud rattle of poor quality heaters around the main area."
"The restaurant is too cold to sit in."
"Website says you are open straight through until 21:00 - needs updating. Very disappointed."
"Quaint, quirky, grungy Thai-ish cafe serving Thai fusion food. A bit pricey unless you are used to paying city centre prices."
