"Had a really lovely lunch here with my friend who has never been to a giggling squid before. She was very impressed. We shared a variety of dishes and all were delicious. Also a lot of options that were gluten free"

"A quick light lunch on a wonderfully sunny day. The outdoor seating was minimal but enough to get the sunshine. Ordered the Zingy Prawns plus the Salt & Pepper Squid for starters from the sharing plate which both were amazing. For mains we went with the Prawn Pad Thai which also was great. I really liked the idea of having the peanuts on the side to allow for me to add the quantity I wanted. Overall a great meal. Would come definitely come back."

"I had a great time catching up with a friend. Our meals were delicious and the service was great. There was a good atmosphere, not too noisy so we were able to make conversation. I did feel a bit to close to the tables either side of us which felt a bit intrusive into other peoples dining experiences."

"I was invited to lunch by my son and granddaughter. It was a weekend close to my birthday and it was an opportunity to catch up . I was offered a choice of two tables when I arrived a little early . We had a delicious meal in very pleasant surroundings and were attended to in a most professional manner ."

"Went for lunch with no reservation. The staff was friendly and there was plenty of space in the restaurant. We ordered a few starters which came quickly and the food was outstanding. We then ordered mains and were a bit disappointed with the red thai curry flavour. It has lost its touch from when I visited a few years ago. But if you are looking for authentic Thai food, you must give this place a try !!"
