Quite possibly the worst Thai I’ve ever eaten. The Thai crackers tasted like they’d been fried in old oil and were very greasy. We had prawn tempura which again was greasy with the prawns having been over cooked and rubbery. We both had Thai curries, the mussaman curry again tasted old particularly the potatoes… but most shocking of all was the sticky rice we ordered… it was clear this rice was just reheated as it was hard and solid, but worse still it had been cooked in blue freezer bags! I wish we had sent it back because consuming micro plastics is not healthy for anyone these bags should not be used for cooking and had virtually melted. I asked for chilli as my mussaman curry was inedible and the bill showed that £1 had been added for this. All in all AVOID save your money and eat at the Acorn pub if you are after greasy food that would actually be more palatable!

The staff are so kind and genuine makes a difference to big chains. They are always grateful, and it makes the experience so nice when the staff see you eat a plate of food they have a huge smile. One of the best dining in experiences I’ve ever had. Not too expensive, and flavourful food. Updated: We have not long got home and we ordered the duck as a takeaway. We have just opened the pots and for £15.90 there’s hardly any. Maybe the same amount as a chicken leg in total. This is very disappointing.

Cons: We were snapped at by the staff for not ordering fast enough because the kitchen was closing (which no one had mentioned until that point). We ordered a selection of starters under pressure from the staff and after hearing the microwave ping a few times we were presented by a selection of iceland party food where the only flavouring came from 3 pots of sweet chilli dip. Then it cost £45 for the privilege

Friendly and helpful staff. Quick service and food to die for. Lovely atmosphere. My sister was here for the first time and she loved it read more Friendly and helpful staff. Quick service and food to die for. Lovely atmosphere. My sister was here for the first time and she loved it

Soup (Tom Yum) was just full of thick pieces of chicken and mushrooms, tasted ok but not quite your authentic Tom yum! Than we ordered the sharing platter of starter but we were never told that it will cost us £30+vat for starters!!! Than the prawn panaang came with 6 king prawns with the smallest amount of gravy no vegetables on it or sauce which was £9.50. Egg friend rice great Jasmine and sticky rice great Phadthai great Thai red curry again smelly chicken in light red sauce it didn’t feel authentic to me. Krapkrow basic not hot just served warm. VAT was added than another £12 for service which was shocking and everything was rushed at 8:30pm. Avoid avoid avoid. Never going there again. If a waiter tricks you into ordering starters platter which is clearly priced at £15 and doubles the order to make it £30+vat you know they are struggling, but just be honest and let the customers decide.
