The food was great. I ordered the KowPad fried rice with medium+ and shrimp. The heat was just right. This Bangkok I go to,

It has been years since I have been here at Bangkok Cafe. I had a craving for some good Thai food so I drove right over for takeout. The dining area is showing wear and tear for many years and could use some dining room renovations. I ordered the Chicken Pad Prik minus the mushrooms plus broccoli and (2) fried spring rolls for lunch. The portions was plentiful and definitely enough for lunch and dinner. I requested my entrée mild spice and it was not spicy at all. The spring rolls were good. It was literally ready in 5 minutes and some of my rice was cold. The food preparation area was full with about five gentleman shoulder to shoulder in a small area. I was happy to see them wearing head coverings. read more

Have been coming here for more than 20 years the best in Michigan. The portions are solid. The staff is friendly service is quick.

Very good restaurant! Good food, huge portion and very reasonable pricing. Not the best Thai food, but for the price, really can't ask for more. Also no dine in service, but can order take out and eat there. Important to know their spicy level is outrageously spicy! For someone who loves spicy food, the medium level was intolerable. I actually asked for my Pad See wew to be remade to mild and they kindly accommodated! read more

Love this restaurant .have been going here for years. I used to own a Curves two doors down for 4 years. They're the best.

Got the green curry and the chili curry. Let me warn you first and foremost how spicy this place was. The chili curry, beef, with no added spice, is INEDIBLY spicy. Beef tastes like spicy beef Jerky which I was not anticipating. Had one bite and knew it was not for me. UNPLEASANTLY spicy and I consider myself able to take spice. Had this replaced with green curry with shrimp. Not too creamy. Not too flavorful. Not too unique. It was made WITHIN 5 minutes of taking back the previous dish. So speed was good but there is something about a dish made in 5 minutes that makes you question things. It's thai. It's spicy. It meets minimum standards. Ambiance is self serve (bc understaffed). Don't think I'll return. Just not special. read more

This place used to be our absolute favorite for decades ! But they have gotten so cheap and unconcerned with customer service that the dining room looks like a storage closet and you can't even have someone serve you anymore. We saw the state of the place and walked out. Very disappointing. it seems like people in the city have given up on human interactions and concern with cleanliness what customer service, otherwise a place like this couldn't exist. read more

Food is always great! Portions are large and prices are small. Their vegetable delight is my favorite in metro detroit!

10/10. I'd give 100 stars if I could!! The best Thai around Ferndale. Always so quick and perfect every time. Portions are huge, great for dinner plus leftovers. read more

My family has been eating here almost weekly (but at least twice a month) for more than a decade now and it is always fantastic. The Pad Ped is to die for and something I used to think about constantly when I briefly moved away. I've tried to order similar dishes elsewhere just to see what's up and none are even close to as tasty! There are a lot of complaints on here about the service but if you've been there more than once you'll see that it is incredibly busy. Everyone who works here is clearly moving as fast as they can to get everyone food as fast as they can... cut them a bit of slack people! Sorry they don't have time to ask you how your day was when there are clearly a thousand other things going on at the same time! read more

9-18-2024 I went and the young lady in the front attitude was nasty. She wouldn't speak up and on top of that was shaking her head when I said what I didn't want in my second dinner which was shrimp fried rice. I get the food home and eat it was throwing up in 15 minutes do not eat here. Food was disgusting ! read more

Bangkok cafe has some delicious food. I have never had a bad meal here. But their bathroom is too disgusting for me. I can't go there ever since I saw the restroom. read more

Opened up my food "chicken & shrimp fried rice....they don't clean the shrimp...I would've never thought that a well established business wouldn't clean out of the shrimp ‍ read more

Not quite like bangkok96 by my house, but yhe coconut soup is amazing. Love ordering here when I'm at the cigar lounge next door.

The food is excellent and budget friendly and everything is always made to perfection whenever I order my food extra spicy. The atmosphere is very peaceful. read more

Bangkok Cafe - Chicken fried rice add broccoli and mushrooms extra spicy - Thai Near Me - Ferndale, Michigan

Bangkok Cafe runs like a well-oiled machine. First of all...shrimps chips...love em! They are available pre-made at the counter along with a few other snacks. I get the same thing each time I stop in for a carryout, so I can only speak to the Pad See Ew. I've had this dish at many restaurants and theirs makes my "top 5". The dish is always consistent. I add shrimp and extra broccoli. Yes the see ew here comes with broccoli. I've not had broccoli in the dish at other restaurants. Anyway, you can order your dish with a range of spiciness. I'm a wimp, so I always order mild. The noodles are usually cooked on par, the shrimp are fresh and plump and the broccoli is cooked medium with a little crunch. I love the bean sprouts and egg, they definitely top the dish perfectly. I also order the spring rolls which are good. The ladies working the cash register are definitely about their business. Don't go in there unsure about why you're there and CALL AHEAD...the place is busy with a steady flow of customers from open to close. There are a scant few dining tables, however they're currently only open for carryout. Oh, and parking is paid on the street and lot. read more

I decided to give this place a try the other day after a long week of work with no motivation to cook food for myself. First, I think the pricing is quite fair for the amount of food that you get. I placed a phone order and my food was ready in the actual amount of time given so great service. Overall the noodles were excellent! They were saucy and had all the right flavors. Warning: this can get very spicy! Think of fire ramen as the marker for medium level of spicy. I enjoy it but I know some people may not. Overall, great experience! read more

Absolutely loved the food and it was well priced, fresh and delicious. I had never tried tom kha gai and loved it- not spicy as I worried. The restaurant has several spacious and clean tables to eat at, it was very uncrowded and we recieved our food quickly; however it is small so on more busy evenings I wouldn't count on a table. The girl at the counter was nice and friendly as well. Overall loved it, may go back during the week I'm in town. read more

Bangkok Cafe - Tom Kha Gai soup and fresh spring rolls - Thai Near Me - Ferndale, Michigan

My how things have changed here. The was really good at one time. Worst customer service ever. I said hello three times and the cashier never responded. The Tom Yum soup was too salty to eat. The pad Thai had no flavor. The inside looks like it has not been cleaned or remodeled in years. I will never return. So sad. read more

This place has Great food and Great service. We ordered this yesterday and finished it all the sad part is that I'll be bk again today. read more

Bangkok Cafe - Shrimp Fried Rice so good - Thai Near Me - Ferndale, Michigan

Food is great but don't come here if you expect friendly service. They are NOT friendly at all. Order your food and go!

Great Food .VERY BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!!! Basically this restaurant is primarily a carry out restaurant. The phone is always busy or it constantly ring and the we they pick up they are rude. read more

Good food overall, though I've only tried one specific thing from there, which is the shrimp fried rice.

WONDERFUL food! This restaurant is a Ferndale institution. I've visited them over decades and the food is fresh, fast and flavorful. Great portion size for the price. The fresh rolls are exceptional and their fried spring rolls load in the vegetables and filling. I always get the chicken curry, the pad Thai is great and their menu offers a plethora of vegetarian choices. One note, they give you a choice of your "spice" level - mild medium or hot. Their spice is intense....I love a strong kick to my food but here I always order MILD (fyi) I have to give props to their staff, they are ALWAYS busy and they deliver your meal in record time. STRONG recommendation for this business. read more

Takeout place is "busy"! I'll be taking them back as I always do! I suggest you call ahead, but the wait isn't very long. read more

Bangkok Cafe - Sweet and sour chicken. My children this place! - Thai Near Me - Ferndale, Michigan

Unfortunately I always forget to take pictures of the food -- when the Tom Yum soup arrives with its multitude of fresh veggies and pieces of chicken, I grab a spoon and dig in. Then I think... "I forgot to take a picture for yelp." So enjoy the basically devoured soup picture. This soup is Incredible. Next -- KISS Me. I'm not asking you to kiss me, especially after I eat this dish (appropriately named) -- chicken with fresh garlic. Oh my. I add some broccoli which goes perfect. I did remember to take a picture this time. But not until I scooped it onto my plate. Oops. Anyway - this is one of the best Thai dishes I've ever had. And did I mention for three of us - two entrees with rice, an appetizer and two soups - $25. So affordable too. You'll love it! read more

I have been a long time fan of Bangkok Cafe. Pad Thai chicken with Shrimp medium spice is perfect EVERY.Dang. TIME. I have no negative remarks. LOVE THIS SPOT. Even to fight Ferndale traffic, construction and parking is worth it. For COVID-19, they are limiting carry-out to call ahead only. Then entry into the foyer one person at a time. Kudos! They have hand sanitizer and notices posted. read more

Bangkok Cafe - Entrance marked call in orders only. Masks must be worn. One customer inside at a time. - Thai Near Me - Ferndale, Michigan

It's very difficult to find a good Thai place, but Bangkok is it for Ferndale! I work in Detroit, but near Ferndale, and was craving Thai. I tried Bangkok due to the reviews, and it did not disappoint! Indoor dining is closed for now, but carry-out is available. I ordered a spring roll and Pad Prik (#13). I also had a hard time dining an updated menu, so I grabbed one of those too. The food was delicious! Their spring rolls are a decent size and filled with a ton of cellophane noodles & veggies. If you have the opportunity, check this place out! read more

Literally so delicious! The portions are huge and everything is what you'd expect of a fresh Thai takeout experience. I really like how they use big pieces of veggies in their dishes. The chicken satay is also huge and the best I've had in the Royal Oak / Ferndale area. read more

Definitely a great option for Thai food! This low key, hole in the wall restaurant has a bit of charm to it despite looking like it has seen better days. The pad see ewe with chicken I had was so delicious! The noodles were a bit smaller than the flat and wide noodles I'm used to but it tasted great which is all that matters. I got it medium plus in terms of spiciness and it was perfect for me. The noodles were perfectly coated in the delicious sauce making each bite a joy! Would have preferred Chinese broccoli with it but not a deal breaker. Portions were huge and I had left overs as a pretty big lunch the next day! I was really impressed and happy with the customer service. The woman who served us was was very friendly and sweet! read more

This is my favorite Thai restaurant. Their Fried rice is the best. I get chicken fried rice or chicken and shrimp fried rice. They have the best spring rolls. Pre-covid you could dine in with wait staff, now you can only do carry-outs. They will allow you to sit at a table with your carryout but no refills for drinks. You will have to pay for another drink which sucks. read more

Generational family ran and operated, this Thai place will get you whatever you want in just 5 minutes. No joke, the food quality is not anything special but to be able to knock out any flavor on their menu in 300 seconds, pipping hot and large portions...that's 5 stars in my book read more

I used to love this place until my son attempted to get carry out twice and they harassed him for having a handicap. He has gotten food from there every week for the past 5 yrs and when he asks if they can bring food out to his car because he's on crutches and can barely walk and carry food they ridicule and make fun of him. WTF this community supports you through co-vid and has supported you for many many years and this is how your going to treat someone when their down? We will never be back to your restaurant again. SHAME ON YOU!! read more

Always delicious and great customer service. Wish they were open more................................they are one of my favorites I just don't go often much anymore because of their weird hours and closed during random days read more

The food here has always been my favorite. I live in Canton now but anytime I'm in the area, it's a must have. For over 20 years this was our go to place for Thai food. Always. We've never been disappointed with the quality or portions. When we could go inside to order or eat, the staff was always friendly courteous and very pleasant. I was so glad to be able to enjoy their great food again even in these difficult Covid times. read more

I love the food here, but they hardly answer the phone. I have to call about 10 times to get a answer or I'll just show up in person to place a order cause I want to avoid calling all together. With that being said, having to put up with all that, the food, it's worth it. If I can give them 1 piece of advice, FIX THE PHONE SYSTEM!! read more

Came here the other day for an early dinner and I have to say the pad Thai was probably the largest portion I've ever received from a Thai restaurant. The sauce was on the lighter side and didn't have crazy depth of flavor but it was palatable. They were also generous on the shrimp and they weren't small either which was a big plus! The drunken noodles here had basil in it which made the dish overly floral and changed the flavor profile of the standard dish for my unadventurous dining partner. The noodles were the same as the pad Thai when we've order this dish anywhere else it's always the wide flat noodles (the kind you get in pad seew). We also tried the chicken fried rice which was hella bland. Almost zero flavor going on in that dish so after one bite we didn't touch it again. Overall decent- the pad Thai was the best out of the three dishes ordered but there's much better out there in my opinion! read more

The best takeout Thai food in the area bar none. They have been excellent for decades.

I'm here often and the food and service is consistent and fast. No frills but shareable portions at a fair price. I miss the pre Covid experience, but I still give it 5 stars. read more

One of the best Thai restaurants in the area. I would have preferred my curry veggies with shrimp in a separate container than the rice. I will request next time. Great tasting and quality. Thanks read more
