This place is tasty, and maybe the best Thai food I've had in Vancouver. No complaints here. Prices are fine, food is delicious and ample, and they haven't screwed up my order. Will eat at again. read more

So. - first time here. Food, atmosphere is good. Service WAS good when we first got here.....until our waitress decided to have a 15 minute, loud conversation with the couple at the table next to us ( good lord that guy likes the sound of his own voice!) I finally just got up to ask another employee to check if our food was ready - it was. For how long - who knows. So be aware the service is spotty. Be ready to be your own waitress. ( the funny part - she was talking to the guy about people who don't tip, etc. .....oh honey.....). OMG - she's back and talking AGAIN to the couple. And they talk so loud we can't even have our own conversation. Weird outing to say the least. read more

Inexpensive. Fast service. Allergy-friendly and accommodating in general. Family-friendly restrooms that are clean and spacious. Local beer selection. Quiet, open, great atmosphere. read more

See all

This was my first visit to ginger pop, and it was pleasant enough for me to be interested in exploring their menu more. The location is very nice looking and we were greeted by friendly staff and seated immediately. They weren't busy but they weren't dead either, and I was able to see into the kitchen when they would open the doors and it seemed very clean. They served what I believe was infused water, and had a very good specialty root beer and chai Thai. They had a good selection of local beers and a variety of cocktails, though we didn't try any. My boyfriend and I decided to split the chicken pad Thai from the happy hour menu and it came out promptly. There was a good spice to the dish, and it was definitely one of the better peanut sauces I've had. I prefer the wider rice noodles, but these were very good and held their texture well. I wish it had come with more chicken, but the chicken that was there was juicy and well flavored, something most Thai places in the area lack on. The prices are also on par with other Thai places in the area, though from what I can tell their portions are on the smaller side. I can't complain with feeding two people for $20 after tip though! If their menu was more extensive they would definitely have my attention. Overall, they are in my top 5 of Vancouver Thai restaurants, and we have a lot of them. (definitely check out Thai Terrace and Thai Little Home as well!) read more

Love this place. The food can be a little greasy but it's super tasty. The sausage fried rice is pretty delicious and so are the salad rolls. I usually grab my order to go and it is ready pretty quickly. I've eaten in a few times and service seems good. There were even a few decent beers on tap. The interior is cool. It has a good vibe and I haven't ever seen it crowded to the point of having a line. read more

First time coming here. I hate writing bad reviews about places but I left very disappointed. The Pad Thai we got didn't really have any flavor and the noodles were thin like spaghetti. We also got Tom Kha soup and the mushrooms were dark and old, it just kind of tasted like salty broth. The only thing that we enjoyed where the chicken wings which were fried and drenched in chili sauce so how can you not like that. I hope this reaches the owners because I come from a family who is in the restaurant business and feedback is always necessary. Wishing them the best. read more

Great service, amazing food. This place never fails! Great curry, everything I've tried is delicious! Whenever I visit my sister I have to go to this little gem! read more

Quick service and quick food. Slightly bland. Very large portions. Good wine and spirit selection.

Unbelievable!!! We are DONE with these guys (ARAWANs). I thought my first review were bad about the employee (s) kept the changes. It gets even better.....Their employee tipped $5.00 for themselves on our credit card. This is a fraudulent and my bank can't even disputed cuz the amount are small. No f*****g big deal. My wife clearly left a blank on the receipt for her take-out order, and somehow someone decided to put the $5 amount on them...Just F@&$@! unreal. Wow!! btw, owner-please don't reply. Don't waste your time. There're plenty of Thai restaurants in town. I differently share on my Facebook... read more

I go here on my lunch break when I have time, the takeout boxes are always packaged so neatly and the food is absolutely amazing

My wife and I had dinner here tonight she has been here before with her sisters and couldn't wait to bring me. Food was very good! The waitress was excellent. Definitely recommend Ginger Pop. We had the wings and the salad rolls before dinner. Very very good and I'd recommend them both. read more

Pleasant environment, nice waitstaff. The ginger chicken with basil was ok but the chicken was very overcooked. My partner's chicken dish (chicken chili jam- which was a substitute for the beef) was much better. The price is fair, and we've had better food there before. Maybe it was just an off night. read more

The food is okay, but it's priced like any of several superior restaurants with similar fare in Vancouver. Bolder choices and commitment are needed in the kitchen. The service is normally acceptable-ish, but tonight's experience prompted me to write a review. I just want the truth, ya know? Don't tell my that my take-out is going to be ready in 15-20 minutes if it's really going to take an hour. Don't call me by name when I walk in the door and tell me that they're bagging up my order "right now" and then make me wait 25 minutes for it. Calm down, don't be nervous and give it to me straight. read more

The tofu fries are a great starter, and the Thai iced tea is a solid drink choice. I have a hard time finding Thai in Vancouver that is spicy enough. My husband and I are on opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to spice preferences, and we both get the right mix when eating here. Beware when filling growlers - always ask for the price before they fill you up. Every brew is charged a different rate, and some of them are outrageously expensive. read more

Okay if you have family or friends visiting or EVEN if you're all by yourself...Ginger Pop is the BOMB and you gotta come here for its healthy and delicious thai food. I didn't know I liked Thai food until I came here. Their Thai Tea is a MUST, as well as the Thai chopped salad and the Kao Pra Ram. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. However you should probably bring a jacket because I'm always freezing anytime I sit inside. I think they have the AC pretty high. I have met the owner and she's jusr as amazing as the food is. GO TO GINGER POP. Its also under the same ownership as Arawan Thai. read more

Ginger Pop - Thai Near Me - Vancouver, Washington

Spur of the moment dinner that turned out to be some of the better Thai-fusion food I've ever had. The hibiscus tea is terrific, and all of the other drinks we tried (alcoholic and non-) were refreshing and inspired. Really nice servers and staff. They did not flinch when we showed up with two young children, both of whom really enjoyed dinner too! read more

Adequate food and helpful service. If you want the atmosphere of an American restaurant with Thai cuisine. This is a good pick. Food came fast and they provided a variety of spice choices. read more

Amazing customer service i made a mistake when ordering my food and they fixed no problem really made me feel like they care about customer service read more

Super bomb ass dank ass, definitely gonna come back to here again. So good, Monie was such great help and super funny

I don't know if they were having an off day but both dishes I ordered tasted the same and neither tasted good. This is the second time I've had sub-par food here. This is this first time it was so bad I couldn't eat it. The bell peppers in the pad see ew were bitter and the drunken noodles were over cooked. The only thing I was able to eat were the fresh salad rolls. If I had eaten in the restaurant I would have sent it back. I was so disappointed as I was really looking forward to a good Thai dinner at home after a long day. The person that helped me when I picked up the food was very nice. read more

Their food is really good. Everytime we go, my family is happy. Those "Priking...-named" in the menu are . Will always recommend it to friends who come to the area to visit. read more

Got the basil chicken sub chicken for veggies. The flavor was great and the portion size was overwhelming. I was very satisfied with the lunch. I would head back. read more

I ordered the chicken pad thai to go and was very disappointed. It didn't taste like pad thai at all ... more like an instant cup of noodles with no seasoning. It just tasted like grease to me. I couldn't even eat it. My sisters were with me and tried it as well and they both felt the same way. I took it home and tried to add sauce and ingredients to make it edible and it still wasn't. I'm not a very picky eater and don't usually even leave reviews but this was bad ... Sorry. Had to give folks a heads up. read more

Service was great and the food came fast! We also ordered the thai teas and both the teas and the food presentation was beautiful. You can tell they put in extra time to make the plating look professional. This is by far my favorite Thai restaurant in the area. It is definitely worth driving from Washougal to eat at! read more

My first visit to Ginger Pop. I enjoyed the atmosphere: pleasant music, wall colors and lighting nice. I will return as the food was quite good. Nicely presented and very tasty. I shall return to try other dishes. Happy hour menu looked tasty, too. Thanks Ginger Pop, glad to see you at this location. NanC read more

Nice that they had some gluten free beers, but food quality was lacking. Not an authentic Thai taste on the dishes we ordered.

Customers beware!! I am disappointed in the management, at Ginger Pop! I believe in shopping local and supporting small businesses, but will no longer support Ginger Pop after being lied to about a dangerous situation. On Monday, June 22, while walking to my car, I was cut by a cable/wire sticking out of Ginger Pop's outdoor seating area fence. I immediately went into the restaurant to report the cable so it could be fixed. The cable was sticking out of the fence without a cover on the end. The employee at Ginger Pop apologized and asked if I needed a bandaid. She then came back with a napkin and two small round bandaids and said that was all they had. My first thought was, don't all restaurants have to have a first aid kit? I left the restaurant and went across the street to Cotton Babies, where I was able to use their first aid kit to properly clean and cover my cut. Upon leaving the shopping center the cable had not been addressed and was still exposed at the perfect hight to damage a child's face. The next day, Tuesday, I called as soon as they opened and asked a manager if the cable had been taken care of. I was told that it had, and was satisfied that no one else would be injured. Today, Monday, June 29, I went to Ginger Pop with a friend, for lunch. To my astonishment, the cable was still sticking out of the fence uncovered. I immediately informed the manager, again, and her response was that she was unclear as to what I was talking about before. (And Yes, I still paid my entire $50 bill) I am disappointed, upset, and mad that this remained unaddressed for an entire week after being reported, and that I was lied to about it being remedied. I am one week out from being cut on my forearm and still have a huge scab and bruise. (picture below if from today, one week after being cut) I will NEVER be a customer at Ginger Pop again, a restaurant that I used to visit at least once a month, if not more. Please let Ginger Pop know that this behavior and negligence is not acceptable! read more

You know what they say about bad first impressions. They are hard to recover from. From the minute I walked through the door with my mother, we had a rude encounter. We parked kind of on the far right edge of the building...we saw people sitting on the patios but didn't see the front door, so we walked around to the side and saw a door and opened it. The first waiter we encountered was sitting at the bar counting his money, and he rudely informed us that that door should have been locked and were not supposed to come in that way. There was no signage about that at all. Next we looked at a menu while waiting for someone on the clock to come and seat us, since the other guy clearly was not. The guy who came to seat us took our menus from our hands and set them down. My mom said "we're still looking at those" and the guy snapped at her "I know that". He just had an attitude. I could maybe attribute this to cultural difference, except this place is not really culturally Thai. It's just Thai food. No cute little old snarky Thai ladies, just rude white boys. Ok, so on to the food. It was decent. Bt just that. I ordered medium, and there WA literally NO spice on it. It was a boring meal, and my pad see ew had maybe 2 pieces of broccoli in it. I'm just so unimpressed by this place. I'll stick to my pad Thai kitchen on Belmont! read more

The food here is wonderful and I enjoy myself when I come. Each time I come however, I get the same waiter. He is a tall white male named Mitchell who doesn't know how to do his job. He takes forever, and is really awkward when he does come around. Love the food, but hate this main waiter. read more

Second star because the servers were nice and accommodating. I don't understand why this place has decent reviews. My $4 iced coffee was mostly ice. Their crab wontons (a house special) were served with the inside still cold. The servers did remake them which was nice. The pad sew ew was overcooked and lacked flavor. I was surprised I wasn't served jasmine rice. I think this restaurant is for people who don't love Thai food. read more

We tried Ginger Pop because I had heard they had good vegan options, which are hard to find in Vancouver. It was very disappointing. The Pad Thai could be made without the eggs, but not without fish sauce. The peanut dipping sauce that comes with the salad rolls contains fish sauce. The tofu sticks are deep fried in the same oil as the meat. I ordered the veggie stir fry, and it was mediocre. For a $10 dish, I expected better quality. I wouldn't recommend this place for vegans or vegetarians. read more

When Ginger Pop first opened, it had a wonderful new look but I figured it would ultimately fail due to it's very small menu. Ginger Pop has arrived! I have eaten here many times and the food is excellent but NOW the menu is complete and I just returned from the best LARB I have had in the Couve/Portland area! This place rocks. I am so glad for the nice new menu and the finished look. It is great to have the best Thai restaurant within walking distance! Keep up the good work! read more

Stopped in for lunch, had the Yakasoba and noodles, best Thai I have had in a long time. Clean, great service. Excellent pot stickers, highly recommend this place for lunch or dinner. read more

We recently went back to Ginger Pop after having a bad experience, and i have to say there was a huge difference. The service was great and on time. As soon as we sat down we were waied on. The food was great. The server was very helpful when we had questions about the food items. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone.The only complaint i have is it took about 5 min. to even get seated and we were the only ones waiting to get seated :( read more

Great Thai food at an excellent price. Staff is always friendly. Our waitress took the time to give us suggestions and her favorite picks. Dessert selection looked awesome. However, we were too full to eat dessert. read more

Whoever wrote the review that speaks to the free advice he gave was actually spot on. I eat here almost every week for the food and atmosphere, but there are things that kept me from giving 4 stars, namely the service. I can't tell you how many times I've ordered a beer (great local flavors btw) only to see that it has been poured and sitting on the counter while 1-2 servers are stocking the ice or some other thing that appears it could wait. This just bothers me because I usually have to ask AGAIN for them to bring me my drink. Also, there are usually longer than normal wait times for food. We have found that as we sit down to put in an order of pork salad rolls which are to die for. This will hold us over until we get our long wait food. But ya' know, it is all made from scratch and you can tell the difference, so they got that going for them. read more

I love their water! Its infused with cucumber. I had garden curry, and tofu fries. Both tasted great, and I loved the sauces that came with the fries. The restaurant is outfitted with Ikea like items, is cute, open, and doesn't feel like a Thai restaurant, very Americanized. I'll be back. read more

I've been here probably 5+ times now. There are problems that almost made me give this 3 stars, but there's enough good to off-set that. I hope they take this to heart because they could be one of the coolest things in Vancouver if they did. The Best Stuff: 1. Food. The food here is great. The portions are nice and the price is not outrageous. Everything does seem very fresh and colorful. 2. The hot sauce service tray. I love this. Home-made (I think) sriracha, chili paste, pickled peppers, and garlic pepper spread. Try it if you like heat. 3. The environment. It's a good location. It's clean. One of the better, more thoughtful interiors anywhere (yes, including you, Portland). High ceilings, great custom chandelier, a diner style bar, and a big roll up door with outdoor seating too. Things are a little over-designed in some aspects, but it's nice to go to a place that is at least thought out. The Decent Stuff: 1. Good coffee and beer and tea available. If you want a coffee, try the Thai Iced Coffee. Or get something more traditional. It's all as good as anywhere. 2. Happy Hour is a good value and there are some great, almost entree-sized items on that menu. 3. The lunch menu pricing is fantastic. You nearly get as much as dinner and it's all good. 4. Cleanliness. The place always seems clean. Except last night - see below. The Sucky Stuff: 1. Staff attitudes. It's not that they're rude or anything, they just don't seem very accommodating. Maybe a better way to describe it is that they are mostly on the younger side (college - late 20's) and almost too-cool-for-school in the way that hipsters don't get along with people. This place would be amazing if the attitudes were brightened up. I guarantee a 20% increase in revenue just with this one adjustment. This place should be PACKED and it's not. 2. Attentiveness. Unfortunately, last night was not a good night. Some regulars (maybe even the owner's family?) came in, sat at the bar and got 5-star treatment while we waited for our food, they're came out in 5 minutes. I kid you not. We waited 40 minutes for our food - and there were only 5 other tables seated at the time. I almost wanted to walk out, and say something, but I was just too polite, tired, and hungry. I guarantee you this happens a lot because the attitude of the cool chick behind the counter and the even cooler dude serving was completely adjusted when they came in. 3. Random little things. It's usually a little darker in here - which doesn't help the dark attitudes of the staff. It's also, therefore, a little colder than maybe it should be. I consistently see the ladies dining with their jackets on still. The bathrooms...it's like the avoid going in there so that they don't have to see that they need attention. I can't speak for the ladies' room, but the men's room needs more attention every hour or so. Just do it. Here's the really sucky thing: I was waiting for my turn, the door unlocks and out comes a guy who then walks straight to the kitchen. I thought...I didn't hear the water running at the end...hmmm. But maybe you can't. Anyway, I go in and he must have really wrecked that thing because there was a nasty toilet, paper towels on the floor and a flooded sink with what appeared to be dark green items floating in it (like someone threw up or a kid was hiding his veggies and tried to put them down there? I don't know. It made it very challenging to wash my hands. This was very frustrating considering how long I was already waiting for my food and getting skipped over already. The Summary: I'll chalk up last night to an off-night. They are usually better, but there are things that are consistent that just really piss me off as a customer service guy. When you're sitting on something so good and you don't execute at the point of service and experience, you are failing. This place should have a waiting list. People come down to this area and pack it out...especially on Saturday night! To wit: McMenamins - 40 minute wait. Beaches - 30 minute wait. The Rock - 20 minute wait. Lapellah - 25 minute wait. Panda Express - long line. Red Robin - packed. Fred Meyer parking lot - super busy. This place is arguably better than most of those...people just want the experience those provide. Listen here, Ginger Pop. I just gave you $100,000/year in free advice. I know, I do this for a living. read more

Gave this place a try when Lapella was full. Disappointing. The service was friendly but the decor was distracting and ill fitting. The food was also probably the worst Thai I have ever had. Sad...but I will not be returning. I'll wait the 30 minutes to get a table @ Lapella next time. read more

I judge Thai places on their Pad Thai. Ginger Pop easily takes the best Pad Thai I've had in Vancouver. I love the quality, freshness, and cleanliness of the food. The Pot Stickers are a really good thing to start with as well. It's not cheap Thai food but the quality and quantity makes sense. Aside from that, it's just nice inside which is always a plus. I highly recommend. read more
