Up and down reports this year among loyal local fans of this busy Thai, which will have been a mainstay of dining in the area for 50 years in 2025. One worried regular feels it’s “sad to see this old favourite going downhill”. For the most part, though, diners still say “there’s always a nice meal out here”.

This “reliable and busy Thai” has been a highlight of the local dining scene for over 45 years. The comfortable ‘Khan Tok’ dining room has been revamped, its cushions replaced by lounge seating – and is very popular.

“Always reliable and hard to beat” for its “wonderful food”, this “bustling and enjoyable” Thai has been a local hotspot for four decades. “If you’re looking for a different experience, sit on cushions at the low-level table in the separate ‘Khan Tok’ dining room”.

This “fantastic local Thai restaurant” has built a large local fan base over four decades, with its “ultra-consistent good food – nothing too exciting, but you’ll see lots of families and Asian diners here”. For the full atmospheric experience, eat from northern Thai-style low tables while sitting on cushions in the ‘khan tok’ room. Top Tip: “the amazing ‘ped yang’ duck!”.

For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
