Update: been back. Just as good. Photos of starters only. Thai fish cakes & Tempura prawns. Lovely.
UPDATE Sept '24. Returned as a party of 8. The outside has been painted and looks more welcoming. The food inside has remained a high standard. We all had different meals and were even advised one of the choices was VERY hot before accepting the order. The meals and staff were lovely. One of the best restaurants around. Photo is mixed starter for 2.
Our little cousin tried Thai Food for the first time and even though she's usually a (very) picky eater, she liked it!
The place has parking, it’s super cosy and the staff is lovely. I wish I lived close-by to visit every week. Well worth the drive in future.
I would highly recommend the chef specials! I’ve been raving on since my visit and cannot wait to be back. Getting hungry while writing this review.
