I can't believe I've lived in London since like 2007 and I only found out about Thai Cafe this…read moreyear. I feel like an absolute fucking bellend tbh, spending all my time in fucking yumyums (which has the world's stupidest name and is only fun coz they have those tables that sink into the floor but half the time they don't let you sit in them anyway) when this absolute solid gold TREASURE is one minute round the corner. Anyway, the window seat is right next to some cute fairy lights and flowers and shit. As per usual I embarrassed my dining partner - 2015 Elite Yelper, Luke Y - by announcing that if this was a tinder date he would definitely be getting laid. BE WARNED THOUGH - romantic as it is, that table is draughty as fuck whenever anyone goes out for a cigarette. The food is the most authentic Thai I've had outside of actual Thailand. We ordered like the fat fucks that we are, and had fish cakes, chicken satay, squid and some kind of stir fried pork. I also rate their masaman curry and kanom jeeb dumplings more highly than I can express in words, and their homemade ice creams are fleek af too plus they do cool flavours like coconut and pandan. Your whole experience here is going to be heightened immeasurably by the cuteness of the tiny Thai grandma that serves the food. I just want to kiss her all over her jolly little face. She brings you these little spearmint chewy sweets with your bill that instantly take on the exact texture of pre-chewed chewing gum when you eat them. Maybe they are chewing gum? Either way, I swallow, but that's enough about my personal life LOL. All in all, it's an A+ experience every time. Big up Thai Cafe, I love you.

Easily one of the best and most authentic Thai places I've eaten at in the UK…read more They serve all the classic Thai dishes, but each one is perfectly balanced with spice, sweetness and the prevalent flavours of fish sauce and coconut cream. Was even more thrilled to see them serve pad thai without peanuts, letting customers put their own on if wanted! The service here was brilliant too, with the waiter talking us through the menu and the way they eat it in Thailand compared to most Thai places here in the UK. I could just sit and eat their coconut rice all day long! They do a lunch set menu that's really good value, which is on my hit list for my next day off! You can also get takeaway here, stop thinking and just go!

I've had alot of good Thai food in London, but this was memorable…read more I tried every single dish from the small plates menu, and none of them disappointed. Such authentic flavours, but with a unique or interesting twist. Be aware that if you can't take spice, some dishesdo come quite spicy by default... So let your server know when ordering. Ambiance wise, this is quite casual. Almost canteen style vibes, with the hard wood tables, that are rather small too (those for two). Prices are casual too. Without alcohol, we had a very full meal for two for £70 including service charge.

Seaweed can sometimes be hit and miss, not always the same nice texture. Duck and noodles are amazing, decent amount of both. Total usually 18 quid with delivery and they give prawn crackers with the order. I went to order the same thing today, excited for my usual order, and laughed out loud at the price jump. Seaweed for over a fiver? The two big spring rolls were usually a bargain but now not worth it. A tenner if I ordered the duck and noodles again. I'm gutted as I did order fairly often despite it already being a bit dear, but there is no chance at those prices.

They are on Hungry House as well if you are feeling super lazy or live a significant way away. Very cheap prices, with like 3.50 for pad thai and around 5 for red thai duck curry. I was not a huge fan of the Pad Thai as is seemed very stuck together and almost re-heated in texture. Also it was not a very big portion. However, the Shredded Chilli Beef on rice and the King Prawn Sweet and Sour box meal were both quite good. And I can't speak highly enough about the roasted duck in black bean sauce on chow mein. Fabulous and a generous portion! Also, I have had the pho bo (beef) soup which was very good as well, with a good side portion of noodles, bean sprouts, and extra beef. The broth was very flavorful and rich as well.

I can't believe no one's reviewed Tara yet - it's our favourite local restaurant. Definitely worth…read morea visit. Several things separate this one from the pack. Most restaurants on this stretch of Green Lane are Turkish or Turkish Kurd. Tara's owners are Kurds from northern Iraq, and the restaurant decor, influences and music reflect this. Although the food is similar to those of neighbouring restaurants - same mix of Middle Eastern starters, grilled meat mains - it's very well seasoned and subtly spiced. Special mention for Tara's bread - it used to come piping hot from a tandoor oven in the window. When we went back recently, the tandoor had vanished following a makeover. We were perturbed. But not to worry - when our bread emerged from the kitchen, it was exactly the same: hot, crispy, delicious. The best bread on Green Lanes. There are also a few specials - slow-cooked lamb shanks and other cuts of lamb served on flatbreads. Factor in the smiling, nothing-too-much-trouble service, the reasonable prices, and the complementary cardamom-spiced black tea to finish, and Tara really is a hidden gem.

The staff were all very professional, helpful and friendly. At the same time it was not stuffy and didn't make you feel uneasy. We tried the sampler platter for appetizer which was delicious. It was a good array of the their wonderful cuisine. The fried appetizers were not greasy and cooked just right. Loved the chicken/nuts dumpling, very unique and full of flavor and spices. For entree we tried the Lamb curry, sea bass curry, meat curry and pad Thai. They were all a hit, but the sea bass was the winner as far as we were concerned. The sauce and flavor was the perfect combination. Since it was a birthday celebration, we had the molten chocolate cake and the mango cheesecake, an amazing experience trying both (served with vanilla ice cream). This is a great place for any celebration

In addition to the eclectic and very creative menu, the sheer delight, taste, and presentation of the wonderfully prepared food is an experience in itself. Without a doubt, this restaurant has great ambiance, fist class service and is amongst the best in Hampstead.
