April 24th 2025, we were walking along the strand in the middle of the afternoon I came across a sign posting lunch specials for less than 10 GBP or $15. Could not pass up a deal like that as the price includes tax and tip in London. The decorations inside the restaurant we're incredible. Great ambiance. We ended up ordering two of the higher price lunch and combos at 17 GBP each. Wife had the green curry chicken and I had the pad Thai chicken. Each entree included an appetizer in this case I dumplings and chicken satay. Presentation was incredible with bright colors amend a luxurious setting. We ended up paying 38 GBP or almost $50 with a optional tip of 12.5%. quite a bit more than the 10 GBP advertised. Turned out to be a chain restaurant with over 20 locations in central London alone. read more

This spot is beautiful inside. It's very cozy and intimate. The staff is welcoming and friendly. The food had great flavors with plenty of options. My only feedback is that the prices felt a bit high for the quality; some items were hit or miss. I had the Chu Chi Jumbo Prawns, which were tasty. We also tried the chicken soup, which might be more of an acquired taste. The mixed starters had some solid choices as well. read more

The food was delicious, with generous portion sizes and great value for money, especially given the fact that it's such a touristy area. The service was also fantastic. 10/10 would recommend! read more

Unfortunately, this restaurant does not live up to all the awards plastered on the doors and windows. The interior is nice, for sure, the service is pretty good, but the food was definitely on the lower rungs of my Thai-food-eating ladder. The menu offers pretty much all the basics, from curries, to soups, noodle dishes, and rice. However, after taking the recommendation to heart that the Pad Thai was the best thing on the menu, I regretted my decision instantly after taking the first bite. I'm not a seafood eater and ordered mine with chicken and tofu, yet the dish tasted mostly of pungent fish. For what may be the first time ever, I'm glad the portions were so small. Given that the restrooms and the kitchen are practically next to each other, I had to pass the kitchen on my way there, and was not impressed with the smell of either one. Given that, I wouldn't put too much faith in the rest of the food. Of course, I could have just been having an off day. read more

Food was hot, fresh and authentic. The staff were friendly and helpful. Beautiful ambiance.

As good as it gets without actually flying to Thailand. We arrived 30 mins before kitchen closing and they still where nice enough to give us a table and let us order both starter and main meal. I had red curry prawns, it was was just as my grandma would have made it was she Thai. The liquorish fresh basil with the perfect chili heat formed a perfect creamy coconut dish that I just could not leave one drop off. Salt and pepper squids were excellent! Someone at my table ordered spring roles with glass noodles, which I thought was boring but hey, it wasn't my dish... This was super yummy and if you like your Thai you will love this place. read more

This location of a chain of Thai restaurants welcomes people into its bright and airy surrounds. Although not being as busy as I would've expected a place so central for a Saturday night, small parties of people continued to constantly arrive throughout our stay. The menu offers a very standard selection of Thai dishes, everything from the classic fried starters, soups, salads to the noodle, rice and curry dishes. We tried the mixed starters and for £9.95 it offers very good value with enough to actually be probably satisfy a light meal. The other dishes aren't too expensive with most of the curries between £6-£8. Where they do get you though is the small bowl of rice at £1.80 per person. Personally I was disappointed with the Pad Kee Mao (Thai drunken noodle) that, while typically spicy, seemed to have a bit of an off flavour from other places I've had it. Fortunately we had the Penang curry to offset it. Most of the attendants gave us reasonable service - nothing too in your face, although we did have to ask for more water and the bill. Thai Square is a reasonable place to go out and dine with a large group of people, though it's probably not the best Thai I've had around town. read more

I really like this chain. I've been to a few of them in London and the food and service quality are always top notch. Their fried selections are never greasy and they do not go overboard on the sauces. Do not let the chain aura frighten you. read more

I stumbled out of the Chesire Cheese and really, really needed some food. I was led here by a member of the party. A Victorian-looking opening leads to a modern, clean interior with a relaxed feel. It's quirky and it works. The food was very tasty and the service was great. They were patient, efficient and served us with a smile. My Pad Thai looked a little on the small side when it arrived, but I left feeling full, so the portions were just right. The bill was very reasonable, certainly for the part of town (I think it came to about £15 per head but I might be wrong!). Definitely a good option if you're in that part of town and don't want fast food or pub grub. read more

Nothing special. This chain restaurant has quite smart decor (if a teensy bit seventies hotel) and perfectly alright food on a stretch of the Strand where there's not much beyond sandwiches and pasties on sale at lunchtime, and only a couple of pubs at night. If you are in the area and fancy Thai food, go for it. If you're in the area and can be persuaded to have Indian food instead, go next door: http://www.yelp.co.uk/biz/india-club-restaurant-london#query:indian%20strand read more

I've only gotten take-away from here, but so far so good. I have bought from them several times, especially since they are close to King's College London's Strand campus. The food can be very spicy, but their non-spicy food is fairly good. The staff are friendly, as well. Also, my Thai friend says that their green curry is the best, and thoroughly recommends it. It's good if you like really spicy food. read more

I'm a sucker for Thai food and this place is rather reasonably priced for its location. I had the Drunken Duck dish with coconut rice and tasted some green curry from the boyfriend's mains. Green curries in London never seems to live up to my expectations and Thailand experiences so I'll set that aside but the Drunken Duck was dashing. It was a long meal with a large group and the staff was quite patient and quick - they even settled up the bill twice for the sake of a batch of people leaving earlier than others. It's a quirkily designed and noisy place good for groups rather than quiet intimate dinners. The portion sizes are good and the menu has sufficient variety to cater to varied tastes. In the opinion of my spice-weathered palate, some of the dishes could do with being hotter but that doesn't take away from the fact that the food's tasty. The desserts menu at this place is extensive and varied. The presentations of various ice-creams in their natural look is quite delightful, for instance, the coconut ice-cream in a coconut shell and the pineapple icecream in a scooped out pineapple. Mind that the coconut ice-cream is quite rich and can only be had if shared across three and the pineapple icecream comes in a hearty portion and is best shared between two. For those who desist from sharing, go for the coffee dessert which comes in a single person serving. Why the four stars, you ask? Good value for money. read more

Totally decent thai. Not fabulous. Not bad. Not expensive. Not cheap... Nor, really, much to say. It's a central location and close to King's/Strand. And they're nice. read more

So-so thai restaurant. I hadn't even realised it was there until my colleague took me here. My lamb massaman curry was way too sweet, which made me feel a bit sick mid-way through. Service was a bit hit and miss too, with one of my colleagues being served over ten minutes later than everyone else, and her plate nearly being taken away before she had finished. Maybe we caught them on bad day, but as first impressions go, it's not likely that I'll be returning. I much prefer Pu's brasserie in Holborn. The service is much better and they offer a great lunch menu of two courses for £9.95 (meat version), or £8.95 for the veggie option. It is a relatively small place though so reserve a table or come early. read more

Great Thai food, not large portions, great sauces. read more

Thai Square - Thai Near Me - London, XGL

This place was solid. I had a lunch special (£8.25 I think). I got a nice little pile of beef salad in a super tangy lime dressing, which was delicious and a reasonable sized plate of pad see ew, which wasn't all beansprout filler like at some places! Not a destination dining experience, but I would certainly go back since it is conveniently located for me. Tiny, but really cute little place. read more

Good for lunch. Friendly staff. Modern fresh decor.

Ordered takeaway Pad Thai and Pad Kee Mau here for lunch. Blegh. Greasy and not much taste. There's really not much else to be said. If you're here and want thai food, just take an extra 5-10 minutes to go to Thiwanya behind Holborn Station. You won't regret it. read more

I always come here for the tom kha gai (chicken soup with coconut milk) and sticky rice, pretty affordable at £7.50-ish. It's nothing fancy, just good food, fuss-free. I kind of hate chain places but didn't even realize this was one until my third visit. And always a plus, at least the staff seemed Thai! read more

Sad, for a restaurant that has been rated #1 by the Thai gov, you would think it would be more up to par. It was mediocre at best. I would have gone with 3 stars had they stiffed me and brought me out a bottle of still water instead of tap. He cracker open the bottle before I knew what was happeninng. The lunch special for £9.85 was not bad, but the chicken satay sauce was lacking in peanuty awesomeness, and the chicken itself was still a little hairy, like someone in need of a serious plucking, and the over all flavor of the pad thai was Thai, but again, the missing peanuts, as well as a little too much sauce. read more

Great value for money, the food is very tasty and not as pricey as other thai places in town. Perfect for a light dinner, nice vegetarian options a plus. A good place to go if you're around Holborn. read more

Dropped in for lunch after visiting the Courtauld Gallery and had the fixed menu. Generous portions, a starter and a main dish both very good, and a fair price for London. It was busy, obviously a popular place, so don't go expecting super fast service. A good choice if you're inn that area. read more

Great Thai Food. They do have an lunch set menu that is worth its price. The service was ok and the food was nice.

Very reliable and friendly Thai restaurant which is part of the Thai Square chain (the others are nearby in Trafalgar Square etc.). Does a very good lunch trade, with fast turnover and not very long wait times for food. Probably a bit too unatmospheric for a long cozy dinner, but great for a quick bite to eat with colleagues for lunch or dinner. Very well priced with friendly staff, and they also do a good take-away service. The food always tastes good and full of flavour, and the menu is easy to read and has a good selection of various noodles and curries and also of vegetarian dishes. Highly recommended if you're ever passing! read more

Well I'm officially off of food from Thai Square. I gave it another chance after my previous visit (at a different branch) two weeks ago; yet again I was highly disappointed. Picked up the menu to find sticky sauce all over it. The starter was ok (golden Sacks), but the main was awful. I had the drunken noodles and the beef definitely needed at least another 5 minutes of cooking time (it tasted vile and raw). The veg was undercooked (I mean there's al dente and there's just plain raw! And these beans were most certainly raw!). My mum had the beef with chilli and basil (which was basically the same raw tasting beef as my dish but without the noodles). She too was not impressed. As for the "egg fried rice"... It more like boiled rice with a bit of egg thrown in - no flavour whatsoever. Highly disappointed with Thai Square and won't be dining there again. Will be on the hunt for a genuine Thai place (maybe one that isn't a chain). read more

Had the mixed vegetarian starter & a thai curry with rice as main. Enjoyed everything. Shared a bottle of wine. Staff very friendly. Was very busy, but service was quick, which suited me as I was going to the theatre. Happened upon it by chance, but would return. read more

Thai Square is a nice convenient restaurant that is part of a popular chain, their curries are nice although can be a bit oily so you'd be better off choosing one of the rice or noodle options. There is a lunchtime special for under £10 which is reasonable. The toilets are clean but basic and you need to go down some steep stairs to reach them. read more

The food was great but the reason I give this place 5 stars is because of the service and wait staff. They are so welcoming and accommodating. We had a 16 month old in our party and honestly they were so patient with us and is was greatly appreciated. We were walking by the restaurant the next night and the waiter spotted us on the street, played with the baby and was genuinely asking us to come back despite the craziness from the night before! And again, the food was excellent! Would definitely go back and recommend to anyone read more

Fabulously tasty food, decent prices and very friendly staff. Winning.

The price was reasonable. However, the waiter and manager were rude. We had a slice of raw chicken in the Chicken Pad Thai. Unsatisfactory customer service and overall a negative experience in this branch. read more
