"we were at the Cafe Thai tonight. when we were there, it seemed that we were booked twice. we were asked to sit on the bar and we immediately thought it would be a bad experience. within about two minutes they had set us, so if they had booked twice, they managed to correct the situation very quickly and professionally. eating was absolutely amazing. I am a massive spice freak and very rare I go to the restaurant where they say something is spicy and something is actually (the taste was still beautiful and was not replaced by the flavor) the decor and the atmosphere were brilliant. thanks to the waitress who found out where the dining chairs were from. I'll probably buy my own set! we were on a rare date night without children. we sat next to a group of men who were lovely arrogant. at the beginning I felt really sorry for the lady she serves. they were quite inconspicuous and sometimes very rude (because they could make suggestive comments and talk about the said waitress on a very stupid wise.) they were very professional, went on the table smiling and better than anything polite to the point that it was put to shame! they were not trouble for us, but it was very interesting to hear them in all, a pretty amusing night, because, as professionally all beautiful ladies who serve on the circumvent with people. I haven't taken a doggy bag home for over ten years. I have tonight!"

"Really unfortunate our last experience was so poor compared to when we visited in the summer. Visited as a family on a Sunday and was surprised there was seating for us, we were grateful. Lovely atmosphere and nicely decorated. No staff members to be found but sign said to help ourselves to a table. Don’t like the ordering at the bar thing but that’s personal preference; however makes it feel very much like a Wetherspoons. After ordering, we asked where our food was as we were waiting more than 40 minutes. It came a few minutes later. Kids chicken and chips, absolutely fine. My partner’s steak was beautifully cooked to his preference and seasoned well. I ordered a burger which stayed it was “smothered in melted cheese”. Two slices of cold cheese on top, with a burnt to a crisp burger bun underneath. How they thought it was okay to serve this is beyond me. I took it to the bar, got an apology muttered at me. Two minutes later it came back with a fresh bun, but everything else plonked on top, clearly microwaved as was overly hot and the cheese shrivelled up and dry. Undercooked soggy bacon on top, way too salty. One of the worst burgers I’ve ever had (which after having a quick scan through the reviews, I’m not the only one). Ordered desserts, which were very good. Christmas pudding stayed it came with a brandy sauce, my partner asked if it was a creamy sauce. The woman behind the counter had no idea at all. What turned up was custard? Which was unusual. But the actual Christmas pudding was lovely. Think we will try again but hope the mounting negative reviews are listened to. It’s such a good spot, especially in summer so would be a waste if the quality didn’t match."

"I first contacted Casa back in February to discuss a large booking request I had for 26 people. I was planning a celebratory meal and asked if I could have a set menu for ease, everyone could pre order and it would make it easier as I was going to be paying for the entire meal I was told no problem and I would have a set menu after the weekend. I waited and waited and never received it so I chased it up. I was then told I would have it in a week as the chef was on leave. Again I receieved nothing. I sent more emails asking for a response and no on answered the telephone when I tried. I was becoming more dissapointed. I then sent a message on social media asking the owner to contact me as I wanted someone to take ownership. The owner did not contact me but someone else emailed me back saying I will have the menu by the next day. this is now April and I'd been asking since February) The menu I recieved was 4 starters and 4 main courses from the main menu and told £27 for two courses! Not one ounce of thought went into it. Every dish offered was a pasta dish and a pizza and if I had combined the starters and mains off the al la carte menu they would only at the most come to £22... and I was being asked for £27!! These figures were plucked out of thin air and a random 4 dishes picked just to pacify me! I was incredibly disappointed. I had asked in my original request for a steak option to be added as a supplement and it was but the supplement was £13, so again more than the ala carte price for a starter and steak. I emailed back advising I was incredibly dissapointed. I had waited 5 month now in total, being ignored numerous times and then to recieve this rubbish. When I emailed back to say how dissapointed i was with this and that I am shocked they are not trying to keep hold of a booking that including drinks and deserts and sides everyone would be ordering, would be a booking worth over £1000! They clearly arnt interested in my business and I can only hope that anyone else trying to organise anything here has a better experience. I wouldn't want to be organising a wedding that is for sure, when you get treat like this, they are obviously in a good position and do not need the custom I am unaware if the owner knows about how his staff have handled this but I'd like to think if he did then he would be training them to value custom as he has lost a large booking. Not to mention losing us as a regular customers. I chose Casa because I have always enjoyed it in the past but after this, we won't return."
