Chaophraya

The Townhouse, Nelson Mandela Place, Glasgow, G1 2LL

Chaophraya sits proudly on the corner of Nelson Mandela Place, holding the title of Europe’s largest Thai restaurant. Climbing the small stairway outside, opulence and grandeur awaits in this A-listed building. Enjoy a cocktail on the first floor before…

Chaophraya

33 Castle Street, Edinburgh, EH2 3DN

Taking over the prestigious former premises of Oloroso, up above George Street, high-end Thai chain Chaopraya is a masterclass in studied swankiness. The large space is broken up into intimate booths and softlit corners eyed by solemn Buddhas, with…

Leven's

30-32 Leven Street, Edinburgh, EH3 9LJ

A marriage of Scottish and Thai cuisine might seem a doomed alliance, and some of the menu options sound more like a drunken scramble around the kitchen than haute cuisine (lasagne chicken curry, anybody?), but don’t be fooled – this contemporary outfit…

Thai Pad

20 Leopold Place, London Road, Edinburgh, EH7 5LB

Quicker than you can say 'tablet computer', there's a grimly punning new restaurant, Thai Pad, on the scene. It is, in fact, a new incarnation of the fairly short-lived Love You Long Thai restaurant in the basement of the Richmond House Hotel on London…

Chang Thai Restaurant

29 Cockburn Street, 1 Craig's Close, Edinburgh, EH1 1BN

Just down a narrow close off Cockburn Street, Chang Thai is a hidden city centre gem. Providing a splash of sun in a subterranean space, the decor has a definite beachfront feel, complete with tiki-style bar and shell decorated tabletops. The menu isn't…

Thai Lemongrass

40–41 Bruntsfield Place, Edinburgh, EH10 4HJ

Perched atop the rise of Bruntsfield Place, Thai Lemongrass is a solid bet for those who like Far Eastern fare dispensed with a liberal spoon. The large glass-fronted space is rather draughty and could feel lacking in privacy if you’re after a venue for…

Bluerapa Thai

6 Torphichen Place, Edinburgh, EH3 8DU

Small, sparse and brightly lit, Bluerapa has been plying its trade in the unprepossessing Haymarket byway of Torphichen Place for just under two years. Punters in search of fine dining might consider venturing furthering into town – the food here is…

Songkran II

8 Gloucester Street, Edinburgh, EH3 6EG

Spirit of Thai

44 Grindlay Street, Edinburgh, EH3 9AP

Sandwiched as it is between two of the capital’s foremost arts venues, the Usher Hall and the Lyceum Theatre, this smallish concern will never lack for footfall. Pleasant and unobtrusive staff, gold-accented décor and soft lighting on small tables…

Thai Lemongrass

24 Renfrew Street, Glasgow, G2 3BW

Worth seeking out at the top of Renfrew Street, Thai Lemongrass offers an oasis of calm from the hustle and bustle of City Centre life. Dark wood and warming gold dominate the intimate space with luxury red-upholstered booths, canopied with heavy…

Passorn

23–23a Brougham Place, Edinburgh, EH3 9JU

Nahm Jim

60–62 Market Street, St Andrews, Fife, KY16 9NT

Tang's

44 Candlemaker Row, Edinburgh, EH1 2QE

Absolute Thai

22 Valleyfield Street, Edinburgh, EH3 9LR

Absolute Thai is an unassuming treasure. On stepping through the curtained doorway, diners feel sequestered from the outside world. The restaurant may be small, but the limited space makes for a feeling of cosy intimacy with small touches of kitsch…

BKK Thai

946 Argyle Street, Glasgow, G3 8YJ

Takeaway review It seems fitting that the 'BKK' in BKK Thai stands for Bangkok – a very Thai city with a Western influence – as the food from this small Finnieston takeaway is similar to that served in the better tourist joints in the hot, bustling…

Chaobaby Meadowhall in Sheffield has carefully crafted a menu of the finest Thai specialities, and serves them in a setting that combines traditional Thailand imagery and atmosphere with modern chic design. As well as serving dishes offering bold…

Wok and Wine

57a Frederick Street, Edinburgh, EH2 1LH
