Most Disliked

Some diners mention that peak times can result in a bustling, crowded environment, especially on Fridays. While many appreciate the energy, others prefer a quieter setting. Wait times can increase during busy dinner hours, so planning ahead is wise. A few patrons also express that while the Thai dishes are exemplary, they would love to see more variety in traditional English fare. Lastly, street parking, while generally available, can occasionally be a challenge on busier days.

Absolutely outstanding food.. I've traveled around Thailand and this is the most authentic Thai food I've had here in the UK since returning! If you want 'proper' Thai food at amazing quality for a good price, then definitely eat here! The chef is also super friendly making sure in person everything was okay. The pub overall has a lovely atmosphere. Just moved to the area and this will be my local without a doubt!
