About Giggling Squid - Leamington Spa
Giggling Squid on Royal Priors is a Thai restaurant with a seafood-leaning menu and chicken dishes prepared halal. The kitchen turns out Thai staples such as the Fishermen's Basket, Red Hot Prawn, and Drunken Noodles alongside curries like prawn Penang and chicken massaman, with Pandan Tres Leches and Thai milk tea to finish. Allergy requirements are accommodated on request. Table service runs from the moment a host greets arrivals, and groups of around a dozen can be seated together, with dishes brought out at the same time. An outdoor seating area is used for lunch. Dogs are welcome throughout. A Blue Light discount applies for eligible cardholders.

Customer Review Summary
The Fishermen’s Basket draws the most praise, described as crisp and fresh, with the Drunken Noodles, Red Hot Prawn, prawn Penang, and Pad Thai also singled out as flavourful, and the Pandan Tres Leches and remade Thai milk tea noted among desserts and drinks. Servers, including two named by reviewers, are repeatedly called attentive and friendly, with allergies handled with attention and one large group's food arriving together despite a slow start taking orders. One reviewer mentions a member of their party being charged for a cracker bowl she hadn't wanted, despite objecting. Otherwise, the decor and ambience draw consistent compliments, and reviewers close on details like a remade drink after it tasted watery and a BlueLight Discount being applied.

“This is a beautifully presented Thai restaurant that feels both elegant and welcoming. The menu is thoughtfully curated rather than extensive - every dish we ordered was visually stunning and wonderfully flavoursome. The Pad Thai tasted just as good as the ones we had in Thailand. Service was attentive, friendly and perfectly paced; and our children were left full and happy. Overall, It was an exception experience from start to finish.”

“We went as large party of around 12. All food came out at the same time and they were very vigilant about allergies. It took a long time for the servers to come over and take our order however I can see how getting a group of 12 women cooperating can be difficult. I ordered the prawn Penang which was lovely, very flavoursome and just the right amount of prawns. There was one member of our group that wasn't eating so the server got a bowl of crackers for her however he didn't tell her that this is charged. She was very adamant she didn't want to eat but he insisted.”
