  “A rather unique dining experience in a train carriage. Very comfortable, lovely decor, really lovely service from everyone. This was the best Thai food we have had in years! We did used to live in Australasia so ate authentic Asian food often, and this was comparable to that. We had a duck masaman curry, a green curry and a highland beef sirloin Pa-nang curry. All dishes were extremely flavoursome and the meats were so succulent. We would definitely recommend this restaurant. It is a little higher in price than most, particularly desserts but we felt the quality was high.”

  “Wowza! We were lucky enough to find this hidden treasure in Pitlochry! Seriously the best Thai food we’ve ever had. Prepared to order with care and delivered with a smile. Family owned, you are greeted by the friendly owner. His wife is in the kitchen, preparing extraordinary food, and his daughter is front of house. Also, it is fun and fantastic to be eating in this famous railway car! The interiors have been reimagined as a First Class Train Dining experience from the menus to the interior decor. Apparently it’s an old Norwegian RAIL car that was redesigned as a French railway car for the movie Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning. Great attention to detail every step of the way! If we lived here, we would eat here often. Bravo to them! Definitely visionary. They have knocked it out of the park!”

  “Seriously how is this only a 4.7 ⭐ The food was breathtaking. Every bite we savoured. We want to return to try the rest of the menu. Good: We ordered thai tea, cocktails, satay & spring roll, duck massaman and the salmon. Beautiful and all cooked to perfection. I personally think the price is fair for the quality and the freshness of the ingredients. The fact the restuarant is on a train (even a mission impossible one) just made the experience that little more unique. The service was also so kind and genuine, i got a balloon for my birthday and they kindly offered us a lift home as it was raining. Bad: ordered the satay and spring roll, we were 'sharing' but you only get 1 of each. I think 2 would be more reasonable. We were not informed the kitchen was closing so didnt have time to order another dish/dessert - we wanted to because it tasted so good 😂 . This is not a negative by any means...I truly think this restuarant will be up there with the best in a few years ❤️ thank you again ❤️”

  “Service was excellent,they were busy but the staff were polite and attentive. The owner came to speak to me a few times which added to the friendly welcoming atmosphere. Food was delicious,it wasn’t rushed out the kitchen which shows it’s made fresh to order. I’ve been once before and will definitely visit again.”

  “Honestly. Amazing. Aesthetic on the train was unique and fun. The food was sooo flavourful. Loved every part of it. We had the spring roll and satay starter. Followed by the duck leg massaman curry and the wee choo choo (salmon) curry. Beautifully presented. The staff and owner were super friendly. The chef is the owners wife and daughter. Clearly passionate about their restaurant. Espresso martini was well made. They've only been open for 18 months, but I feel they will be in the running for some food awards in the near future. Only qualm, is that some items were overpriced. £9.50 for 1 spring roll and 1 satay stick. £8.95 for a thai tea. Note: Although restaurant says close at 10pm, last dinner sitting is around 7pm as kitchen closes at 8pm. Not sure if this is an off peak thing or a Sunday thing.”

  “The Wee Choo Choo feels less like walking into a restaurant ans more like boarding a luxurious train. The atmosphere is relaxed but still has a sense of occasion. Service is warm and personal. The mango sticky rice was a real hightlight. Sweet, fragrant and creamy, just like you would find in Thailand. The only downside was the wait for food. The dishes were very good when they arrived. The food make it worth the wait. August 2025”

  “I recently dined at Wee Choo Choo Thai in Pitlochry and had such a lovely experience. The staff and owner were so welcoming and friendly and the whole atmosphere felt relaxed and unhurried. We were able to properly enjoy our evening without feeling rushed at any point. The food was absolutely delicious. I visited Thailand last year and the flavours here were just as good. Fresh vibrant and full of depth. It’s such a refreshing change for Pitlochry where many restaurants tend to offer very similar menus. I’d definitely recommend booking ahead as it’s clearly popular and I would absolutely return.”

  “We came all the way from Glasgow just to try The Wee Choo Choo after seeing it on TikTok — and wow, it was worth every mile! From the moment we arrived, the experience was incredible. Mia the mixologist is hands down the best cocktail maker I’ve ever had. The attention to detail in every drink was amazing, and you could taste the care and creativity in every sip. The presentation perfectly matched the flavour — absolutely outstanding. And Isara the chef… wow. The best Thai food I have ever had, without question. Every dish was packed with authentic flavour and cooked to perfection. You can truly taste the passion in the food. The service from all the staff was exceptional. Such warmth and friendliness, especially from Fergus, who made us feel so welcome from start to finish. Their website says they’re passionate about ensuring you enjoy impeccable service and a wonderful dining experience — and they absolutely deliver on that promise. If you haven’t been yet, what are you waiting for? 100% we’ll be back again soon. What a fantastic experience! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

  “We came for the famous Mission Impossible train, and was delighted by the food here as it was one of the best Thai food we’ve ever had! The staff kindly introduced every dish to us to accommodate our tastes. We ordered Green Curry with chicken and Mussaman Curry with pork ribs. I was surprised by the pork ribs, they were very well slow-cooked to fall-apart tenderness. The curry was authentic with medium spicy. All the dishes had beautiful plating with side vegetables and fruits. The dessert was impressive with fresh fruits and smooth coconut milk and coconut ice cream. Every dish met and went beyond our expectations! The staff were very friendly and we felt very welcomed. The restaurant has rich, festive decor, and was nestled behind the main street, offering a quiet and nice atmosphere :) We highly recommend and would come again next time!”
