  “Good Thai food. Good atmosphere. Busy restaurant. The milk tea is a bit too sweet and watery.”

  “A really cute and unfussy spot serving fresh and authentic eats. The fish cake starter was a real highlight along with the garlic and pepper king prawns main with rice and a fried egg. Quick and friendly service with lovely views of the park. Good prices too for central Cambridge.”

  “Lovely little Thai restaurant, very reasonably priced with awfully friendly service!😊The staff were very welcoming and happy to help with answering any questions, as I struggled to choose with all the delicious options! The food came quickly and hot. My portion of the prawn stir fry was slightly smaller than expected but my partners pork dish was piled pretty high, so you likely get more of the other meats. Both were full of flavour. We sat by the window overlooking the green outside, it was a nice chilled vibe and got quite busy in to the evening. Highly recommend!!”

  “Disappointing experience overall We were quite disappointed with our visit. The food took a long time to arrive, and unfortunately the quality did not match our expectations. The chicken satay looked quite different from the restaurant’s photos and tasted very dry, almost like plain chicken breast. The rice was also disappointing. For a Thai restaurant, rice is a basic element, but ours was clumped together, sticky, and some parts were still hard and undercooked. The service timing was also very poor. After we had waited a long time for the main dishes, the desserts and ice cream were brought out less than ten minutes later without anyone asking whether we were ready. This meant we had to rush our main course before the ice cream melted. Overall, the experience felt poorly managed and not very considerate of customers. I hope the restaurant can improve its food preparation and service timing.”

  “Great spot just behind our hotel during the Easter bank holiday weekend. The restaurant seems to be a converted cricket pavilion, with nice views over the park which adds to the experience. Food was really good with decent portion sizes and strong flavours. Good value for money and handy that they offer both dine in and takeaway options. Service was quick and staff were attentive even though it was busy when we arrived around 6:30 pm. Nice mix of people dining there including locals, tourists, couples, and groups, which created a good atmosphere. Menu is simple but has enough choice for most people. Would definitely recommend and would come back if visiting Cambridge again. Great location, good value, Quality food, good options and very good service.”

  “Friendly staff, and excellent, authentic Thai food. The prices are very good for Cambridge: we had a three course meal with drinks for just over £30 a head.”

  “I was craving Thai food and found Baan Thai on Google Maps. With such high ratings, I had high expectations—and it did not disappoint! We visited during a busy Saturday lunch. I’d highly recommend booking a reservation in advance to secure a spot. We only waited five minutes and were seated by the window, which offered a lovely view. We ordered a variety of mains, including Pad Thai Chicken, Kao Kai Yang, and Kang Kiew Wan. The standout for me was definitely the Pad Ki Mao Pork (K3). It tasted just as authentic as the versions I’ve had in Asia—flavorful, aromatic with basil, and the pork slices were perfectly tender and well-marinated. Total spend for five people was £90 (including a 10% service charge). While the flavors were spot on, the portions could have been a bit more generous. Overall, a great find in Cambridge!”

  “The Fish cake starter , the texture is soft, thin and taste ok. Papaya salad was tasty,fresh and spicy as normal Thai spices. But the dssert (Kluay Khaek) the banana breadcrumbs too thick,and taste not nice, also size of banana and ice cream are small. Its a bit over the price for the menu. I do not recommend. Staff are friendly and keep asking for food allergy. 👍”

  “Baan Thai Street Food is a lovely and authentic spot in Cambridge. The restaurant has a calm, relaxed atmosphere with fresh air and a cozy setting—perfect for enjoying a peaceful meal. The spicy soup was absolutely amazing—rich in flavor and perfectly balanced with heat. The salad was fresh and delicious as well. A great highlight for anyone who enjoys bold Thai flavors! They also offer a milder, contemporary soup that’s perfect for children or anyone who prefers non-spicy dishes, which is a thoughtful touch. Overall, a great experience with tasty food, a pleasant environment, and thoughtful menu options for everyone. Highly recommended!”
