  “This place is the best Thai restaurant I have ever been at! The staff was friendly, the decor was fun and the food was fantastic!! We had the set menu and it was amazing, we recommend the prawns which were absolutely delicious! 🍤😋Where we were seated there was a nice little fountain and fake animals like a leopard, a few parrots and a monkey. 🐵🐆🦜It all brought up the atmosphere in the restaurant. 😃Overall a 5/5 for me!!”

  “What-A-Lovely-Place! Skipton you sure are lucky to have this place. As soon as you walk in you’re greeted by a tiger (not a real one) They’ve gone for jungle exotic decor which I love!! The service is warm and friendly. The food was fresh and tasty. The calamari was to die for ( I could eat that everyday!) With the dishes we got, I don’t think you could go wrong with anything on the menu. Just a heads up, they do charge a 10% service fee on your total bill. That being said we enjoyed our meal and dining experience there immensely. Didn’t feel rushed, wasn’t too crowded, and quite relaxing. Do yourself a favour and dine at this spot. If i’m ever in this area again I will visit.”

  “This was a late booking for a Friday evening, so was pleasantly surprised to actually manage to book a table. As mentioned by others, the decor is quirky, but I like a place with character. The food and drinks were literally on the table less than ten minutes after ordering (both ordered stir fry) and both dishes were well presented and delicious! Would definitely be back if I'm back in Skipton again!”

  “Thai Basil never fails to impress! The flavors are authentic, perfectly balanced, and full of freshness. Every dish feels thoughtfully prepared, and the service is just as wonderful—friendly, attentive, and welcoming. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to come back again and again”

  “We really enjoyed our experience here, nice to find some good Thai food here in Skipton. The decor is amazing, kind of a maximalist jungle of color and foliage with lots of orchids and animals, very fun. The place is clearly a local favorite, I'd recommend you give it a try if you're looking for something Asian, fresh and flavorful. As diners with a lot of experience with Thai cuisine, we were somewhat less than fully impressed with the food. A bit too sweet, not enough fish sauce, seemed a bit toned-down to our palate. When the food came, we got loads of tasty vegetables: tried the full vegetable starter, standouts were the corn fritters and the deep-fried veggies. The Yum Pak salad was fresh and tasty. With that we had the Tom Kha Gai soup, very nice, with lots of aromatics, although a touch more fish sauce would have helped bring the flavor up. I'd certainly recommend this restaurant, it's one of the best places we've eaten in Skipton, and the kitschy decor has to be experienced! Service was excellent, very attentive and pleasant to interact with.”
