"A Mix of Delightful Cuisine and Unfortunate Service I recently dined at your Thai restaurant with my parents and partner, and while the food was generally good, there are some aspects of the service that I hope you consider seriously. Starters: The calamari was fresh and crispy, although the platter for 2 felt a bit sparse with only two of each item. Mains: The steamed sea bass was exceptional. The green, red and massaman curries we sampled were good and packed quite a punch, especially the green curry. The fried rice and the late-delivered coconut rice were satisfactory, but what truly stood out was the sincere apology from the chef, who went out of his way to address the oversight. The ambiance of the restaurant was charming, seamlessly blending Thai-inspired decor with the rustic setting of an old English building. The gold bamboo-esque cutlery added a unique touch. However, the dining experience was marred by one particular staff member, presumably in a managerial role. His aggressive and hostile behaviour towards the staff was unsettling. While the wait staff were friendly and professional, this individual's conduct overshadowed the positive aspects of our visit. His actions, including snatching plates out of their hands and hissing at them, created an uncomfortable atmosphere for both patrons and staff. Constructively, I urge a thorough review of this staff member's behaviour, as it significantly impacted an otherwise decent dining experience. Encouraging and supporting the team, rather than undermining them, would undoubtedly contribute to a more enjoyable and harmonious dining atmosphere. In conclusion, we enjoyed the culinary offerings of your establishment, and the sea bass alone is worthy of a return visit. However, addressing the issues with the aggressive staff member is crucial for sustaining a positive reputation and ensuring a pleasant dining experience for all patrons."

A lovely greeting followed by a wonderful tasty meal. Freshly cooked and beautifully presented. Attentive service. Couldn’t ask for more. Highly recommend and a welcome alternative to a traditional Sunday lunch.

Used to be amazing and favourite venue to eat here but the standard of food, decor, furniture and everything else has pretty much dropped in quality. After the last meal we had I won't be bothering to go back sadly.

The thing is, when somewhere you eat seems grubby and tired, it kind of puts you off your food. Which wasn't that bad, all things considered, but c'mon, what do you expect your customers to imagine your kitchens are like when you crunch your way up the stairs to the toilets? View menu

We had an amazing dinner at this restaurant. The vegetarian set menu for two was a real delight! The deep-fried aubergine was particularly delicious. There was plenty of food, and the staff kindly boxed up the leftovers for us to take home. We would definitely come back again.

We have eaten at quite a few Thai restaurants but this was nowhere near as good. We didn't think it was authentic Thai food. The place itself is in need of updating, waiting staff were good and working hard. The person who took our order didn't greet us or engage in conversation, he just wanted the order and then on to another table. We won't be returning.
