Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The shared starter @ ÂŁ18.50 was disappointing in that it looked like it was from Iceland! The sticky rice was in a plastic bag so had to try and open the bag without getting scolded. The food was ok but overpriced for what it is. It was soo hot in the restaurant, it was stifling -there was no aircon or air circulation.
Service was good and staff smiley and friendly

Hey Numbnuts, every item on our starter menu, in fact all our dishes, are made from scratch. Have you ever thought that Iceland is trying to sell quality authentic food? I can't really comment any further on this because I don't shop there. The sticky rice is served in a bag, as it is across most of Thailand and... they are imported from Thailand for extra authenticity. As for air conditioning, we have air conditioning but it is kept at a low level so people don't complain that it is to cold. We set it to a comfortable level for the masses. It is interesting that we had no other complaints about the room temperature that evening, did you think about asking a member of staff if it were possible to turn the air conditioning up or even move you next to a window? Just a thought.

Asked for water and receive bottled water at £3.95 a bottle! Food was bland. Won’t be going back. When ordering the lunch menu check what is included as they don’t tell you if something is not included in the 3 courses and will charge you extra.

I have used this restaurant over the past few years, I took my wife there last night (Valentines Day) for a 8pm booking. We receiver our main meal at 9pm and at 9:30 tried to order a dessert only to be told the kitchen had closed at 9pm and any prepared dish would not be available. There were three other couples around us who complained vocally when they received the same message from the waitress.
The food was as usual, excellent! But I would question the decision to close the kitchen this early, especially on a special day when the effort could have been made. Even at the weekend the kitchen closes at 9:30.

Big car park, restaurant nicely decorated, staff attentive and friendly, food quite good. But the costs add up, not least of which there is a hefty service charge sneaked in at the end. For all the good points this restaurant has, the food was not worth that amount of money. I'll go elsewhere in the future.

Hey Freddy (or is it Mike Smith from your identical Google review), thanks for the feedback. The service charge isn't mandatory, more suggested, you can always request that it be adjusted.
Unfortunately, without knowing how many dishes you had or what drinks you had alongside your curry I can't comment on the rest but, the prices are on our menus so there shouldn't have been any surprises.
You can get 2 courses and a drink for under ÂŁ20, which, I think is reasonable for food prepared and served in a restaurant!

We visited to celebrate a special anniversary. It was as though they wanted us out as soon as possible, they removed the plate of starters as my husband was putting his last fork full into his mouth. The wine was dribbled on the table. Our main course was thrown down rather than put down and when we asked for the bill, the waitress brought the bill and stuck the card machine under my nose immediately without allowing me time to peruse the bill. Also, they overcharged us. Food was nice but service was shabby. We won't go back.

Ordered a takeaway and food was so disappointing.
Bland, inedible rice and stone cold dishes.
Thai Green curry was bland , beef in paneang was tough and seafood soup consisted of one muscle two prawns and 6 mushrooms??
Spent over ÂŁ100 pounds to enjoy on a Friday night which was totally spoilt after feeling so let down.
Won’t use again !!!!!
Customer service was absolutely useless also when complained.

I'm sorry if this was your experience with us, Friday nights are extremely busy but that shouldn't affect how your food is delivered and the quality. I can't find whether you ordered directly or through one of our delivery partners. If it were direct, then the food should be hot when you pick it up, but how long it takes you to get home can of course have a factor in whether it still is when you arrive there.
All of our food is prepared freshly to order, so I am somewhat surprised by your comments about the food itself, however, we continually strive to be better and I have raised your concerns with the kitchen.

This restaurant never disapoints. Set just five minutes outside the centre of town with its own car park. The standards of maintenance are high and the interior design very pleasing to the eye. The staff are all very friendly and helpful and the service remained attentive throughout our two hour visit. The menu is varied but not overwhelming and presentation of food is high. All our dishes were served hot and tasted excellent.

Spent nearly ÂŁ20 on a very small tupper-wear size portion , which was extremely disappointing. The prices have gone up quite a bit and seemingly portion-size reduced. Won't be returning anytime soon.

On food quality would have given 4.5 stars BUT their Web site states restaurant closes at 10pm and at 915 when we went to order desserts we were told that the restaurant and kitchen was closed and we couldn't have anything at all. No coffee, no dessert nothing.
I had spent over ÂŁ100 for two of us and they included a 10% service charge which I had no problem with up until that point.
Had the web site down a 9pm close then just maybe they had a point but although this is a converted pub it is totally a restaurant and in these post pandemic times I would have thought that they would at least be able to serve dessert until their clouding time.
This actually really spoiled what had been a good meal

I'm sorry that you were upset by this Gary. The website clearly states 'last orders 1hr before close' but I appreciate that the staff should have also made you aware of this, but if this were not the case then I can only apologise. I will bring this up in our next team meeting to ensure that we can learn from our mistakes...

Ate here on a Sunday evening as very few places around here served food after 6pm and very pleased we did.
Food very tasty staff friendly and made sure everything was OK without hovering around you or constantly asking.
Wasn't expensive for the quality of food and the portions you got.

Ordered a grilled chicken dish and sticky rice as a delivery, but was extremely disappointed with the food I received. The chicken was described in the menu as being marinated in coconut milk, chilli etc then grilled, but what I got appeared to be boiled or possibly previously grilled but then reheated chicken in a tray of broth, with carrots, mushrooms etc. The whole point of ordering a grilled dish is to get dry, grilled meat that looks and tastes as though it’s been cooked over charcoal - this was soggy! The rice was one huge congealed lump - you expect sticky rice to clump, but this came out of the tray as a single compressed rectangular portion. In the interests of balance (I’m trying really hard to be fair here, but it’s a struggle) the portion sizes were decent, and my order would have served two easily, plus the photos on various review sites suggest the in house dining is of a high standard, but I cannot recommend the takeaway/delivery options on the basis of my experience.

I'm sorry that your take-away wasn't as you had hoped. If you're not entirely happy with a dish we would always willingly replace it but I get that when you have ordered a take-away that's a faf. Our garden is open for eat-in from the 16th April, I hope that you would be able to visit us and have a better experience.

Wanted to get out of London ahead of a lengthy journey home north up the M11 and we were looking for somewhere not too far off the motorway.
Arrived just after 8pm on a busy Friday night but the very friendly and helpful staff found us a table and we were so impressed with both the food and the service!
It was a delight to dine there and we were out and on our way home for 9.15pm
Many thanks to all involved.

This was a family celebration for a birthday. We had Golden Treasure starters and Set Menus A and C. It was all well presented and delicious. Service was spot on and not rushed. A complimentary ice cream for the birthday guest was a lovely surprise and much appreciated. Thai food at its best.

The food is delicious and always is. However we ordered our food to be collected for 7:30pm and an hour later we were still waiting. The restaurant heavily priorities Deliveroo, go getters and Uber eats and dismisses those who phone you to order. So either order through Deliveroo or order it for an hour before you intend to collect it, should do the trick. We were dismissed and effectively ignored when we asked for an update and only told they were short staffed, not that it affected Deliveroo’s orders

What a fab Friday night with friends. Food and service was very good. I chose something very different, crispy fish with sweet and sour vegetables. It made for a delicious change from curry.
There is always a very good buzz to the place but be warned it's early birds. We went at 7pm and it was packed, fairly sparse by 9pm.
The outside tables are now open.

Thank you so much for the 5* rating, I'm really pleased that you considered your visit to the restaurant a 'perfect Friday night' and that you tried something new on the menu. It is so easy to stick with what you're comfortable with but there are so many wonderfully flavoured dishes to try, so I am pleased that you did... and you liked it.
