“Avoid at all cost. Probably the worst pad Thai I’ve ever had. It had an off putting fish like smell when my meat choice was beef. Couldn’t have more than a bite, I had to throw it away. Just horrible and a waste of money. The spring rolls did not taste freshly or in in house made, it had a frozen food taste. Crust was strong like a brick. I’d avoid this place tbh”

“TERRIBLE! Ordered via uber eats. Tofu & veg dish had no TOFU whatsoever! Papaya Salad no papaya at all (substituted with cabbage which is much cheaper - bait and switch)! Chicken dishes inedible as it could not even be chewed! £50 wasted and all thrown in the bin! Avoid!”

““Our time at Tamarind Thai Cafe was absolutely wonderful! This place truly has the warmth of a family-run business; I genuinely love boutique spots with wooden tables like this, as you can feel the owners doing what they love, and that …”

“Fantastic restaurant! From the moment we walked in, the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made us feel right at home. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and it really added to the overall experience. The food was absolutely amazing – full of flavor, fresh, and beautifully prepared. A standout dish for me was the Pad Khing; the balance of ginger, spices, and freshness made it unforgettable. Every bite was delicious, and you can tell a lot of care goes into the cooking. I would happily recommend this place to anyone and will definitely be returning soon.”

Customer Review Summary
Reviews split sharply. Praise centers on the Pad Khing, with its ginger, spices and freshness, plus friendly, welcoming staff and a family-run feel. Another diner mentions quick food and drinks. Two reviewers complain instead: a pad Thai they could not finish, spring rolls with a frozen taste and brick-hard crust, and a delivery order with no tofu, cabbage in the papaya salad, and chicken too tough to chew.
