Aroy Dee in Gwynedd

Massaman curry was spot on. Pad Thai was fresh and tasty. The best thing by far was the lady serving. What a character! We felt like a guest at her home, I’ll be coming back next time I’m Working near Bangor. Fresh tasty food served by someone who genuinely cares. No rush, just a nice dinner Would recommend

The healthiest tastiest meal in Bangor! Very accommodating of dietary requirements e.g. gluten free, nut free &c friendly and polite.

Been to Thai restaurants far and wide but none of them beat this local well kept secret. The food is fresh, well presented and delicious 😋

Great food, fantastic service. Plenty of dishes on the menu available with meat or tofu. Absolutely worth a visit to enjoy amazing food.

Excellent, tasty and beautifully presented food, friendly and attentive service. Will definitely be eating here again!

Great food and service, the food was well presented and I would highly recommend a visit for a sit down meal or a takeaway. It’s a family run business with authentic Thai food with great flavour. Looking forward to my next visit.

Fantastic food and service. Staff very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend. Looking forward to our next visit

Booked on the reviews posted here. The place is a cafe: formica and all. The food was poor especially the chicken which tasted as if it were boiled: very little taste. No nuts in the Massaman which is usually a constituent. To be fair it was cheap ish £30 for two meals and two beers but I would preferto spend another £10/£15 and get a quality meal. The reviews here do not represent our experience.

Always accommodating to having no veg in my Thai curry. Always cooked fresh to order. Favorite take away in Bangor

A small and humble Thai restaurant. A catch is that it took nearly 50 minuter from order to service. The dish I had, Pad Thai with beef, was yummy.

My first time trying pad Thai was pleasantly memorable and an encouragement to return! From friendly staff to a cosy indoor setting and quality food, this resteraunt left me wanting to return and sample more.

Service speed was appallingly slow considering there was only one other table in at the same time as us on a mid week day. We waited 55 mins from ordering for our food to arrive and were about ready to walk out. That being said, once the food did finally arrive it was of good quality and a reasonable portion size for the money. I would have given more than two stars if there was any form of apology about the extensive wait, but there was nothing at all.

Great service, amazing food! 100% the best Asian food in Wales! Clearly care about the food and their customers. I would highly recommend!

Proper Thai cuisine and there's not a bad dish on the menu. Best restaurant in Bangor and its family run!

Fantastic Thai food. I honeymooned in Bali and wow did this meal take me back there. I particularly liked the deep fried chicken wrapped in pandanus leaves. I also liked the simple touch of providing mixed peanuts to have with the chicken satay. For mains we had a beef red curry, chicken yellow curry and pad Thai noodles. All were amazing. Nothing was over cooked, too oily or too salty. I found all the vegetables to be fresh; the bell peppers still had good bite and taste. The green curry was mild and creamy. The red curry had a medium spice that gradually, but pleasantly, built and I though it had good depth and body. My wife said the noodles were some of the best she has ever had. Overall I got the feeling that the family love what they do and that love is put into the food. I will certainly visit again when next in the area and I hope this review brings a smile to encourage the restaurant to carry on. Aroy Dee / Thank you.

The food here is always great, as is the service. We’ve eaten in several times and also had takeaway during lockdown and it’s always been delicious. Highly recommended.

we had takeaway from this thai restuarant and it was absolutely delicious! one of the best thai's i've ever had

We spotted this when casually driving, looking for dinner and it was a good find! Lovely staff and good, authentic tasting Thai food. Definitely recommend!

For one of the only places in Bangor to serve Thai food, it serves a nice variety of good quality Thai dishes. The food arrived in good time, especially considering that the restaurant was nearly full.The starters were absolutely beautiful. The mains were very nice for a small restaurant. Considering there are no other Thai places in Bangor (as of this review) it was decent.My Thai mother in-law enjoyed the food and said it was pleasant.The pad Thai was okay, and so was the Thai green chicken curry, but would rather pick something else next time.

This is an authentic, family run, Thai Noodle Bar. The menu is not as extensive as some Thai Restaurants, it is a noodle bar, but you get what's on the tin. The décor is clean and plain, as you would expect in a noodle bar, with several Thai carvings displayed on the wall, reminding us that we are in a Thai restaurant. Service is informal and friendly. I started my meal with a spicy Thai seafood soup which was delicious. The rest of the party shared a mixed platter plus a portion of chicken wings. My main coarse was a Thai Green Curry with coconut rice. It was nicely presented and full of spicy flavours. Those used to the full on heat of a vindaloo would find it mild, but it is a Green Curry, not a Vindaloo, favouring a balance of flavour over spoon melting heat. To sum up, a nice relaxing evening was had by all.

The best Thai food we’ve had outside Thailand and great value for money, 2 beers, 2 starters and 3 mains £40!!

Service was good, and the food appeared quickly. The person who served me was pleasant, as are all Thais. The Tom Yum soup was good, a good level of spice (farang spicey not Thai spicey) and I was looking forward to the Pad Thai. The Pad Thai was bland and lacked flavour, although it was well cooked and presented. I love Thai food, so maybe a better choice of food next time. Worth a second visit though.

Second time here! Will definitely be back a lot more. Great food! Great staff! I highly recommend the pad thai

Ordered the chicken satay skewers, followed by chicken pad Thai. Really good quality food and would recommend to anyone to try it out!

Been here 2 times now & will deffo be coming back, amazing meals both times & plenty of options to choose from! Amazing

First visit, recommended by friends, was not disappointed. Lovely food, cooked fresh, tasty and hot, will be back.

We are lovers of Thai food and almost drove past this place. They say don't judge a book by its cover, and this is certainly true about the aroy dee restaurant. The food was as good as it gets, prepared by a Thai lady from Surin. Very friendly staff and such a great authentic taste of true Thai cuisine.

Looking for something different and saw this restaurant on Trip Advisor. Thoroughly enjoyed meal-Thai food nicely cooked, and staff were friendly and welcoming.

After debating which Chinese restaurant to go to I discovered this Thai one, I prefer Thai as I find it lighter and feel better after eating it.

We have been pretty regular customers since this restaurant was opened, in fact we have recommended it to lots of our friends and have even organised a few work do's there. We visited the restaurant just before Christmas and was surprised by the extremely slow service but just put this down to them perhaps being short staffed.

Went on a Saturday night at 8-00 p.m. with my wife. The table was reserved and did have a reserved notice on it. Service started well, we ordered the combined starter for two, it arrived nicely presented and looked well cooked. The amount food presented compared with other restaurants was on small side, strict portion control appeared to be the order of the day. The food itself was average. For the main course my wife ordered Pennang curry and my self a red curry. The main course arrived and my wife's curry was considered good. My red curry arrived separately and had a piece of potato in it (a massamam curry?) and it did not have any trace of red in it. The waiter was called and asked if this was a red curry and he took the curry away and said it would be replaced. The replacement curry arrived in a very quick time, the beans in it were exceptionally al dente and so was the bamboo shoot, the replacement curry sadly had no taste as I would have expected from a Thai red curry. When it was accepted that the curry was not a red curry no apology was offered for the mistake that had occurred. At no time were we asked if we enjoyed the meal. When I went to pay I did complain, there was no apology made or recompense in ant way. Sadly we will not be returning to this restaurant.

Ik ben hier samen met een vriend eind juni wezen eten.

Asiático/Comida tailandesa es ciertamente no es mi campo de especialización, así que no estoy seguro a mi juicio es muy pretious. Sin embargo, puedo decir que es un ambiente agradable, a un precio razonable y con grandes raciones y comida es sin duda comestible! Parece que se acabaron todos por los miembros de la familia y que me parece muy real y se siente diferente de la mayoría de los restaurantes en Bangor.

Una comida muy agradable. Los aperitivos estaban deliciosos; el curry tailandés rojo y verde le faltaba un poco de sabor para aquellos de nosotros que hemos estado en Tailandia y sabía lo real, pero sigue siendo una muy buena relación calidad-precio. El arroz pegajoso y postre de mango es muy recomendable.

Después de haber visitado varias veces, pensé que mejor que escribir un comentario en vez de quedar para mí!

El personal del restaurante muy amable, bebidas llegó muy rápido.

My go-to Thai place in Bangor. Authentic, tasty Thai food that reminds me of home every single time.

10 de nosotros fuimos a este restaurante como un salir debido a uno de nuestros amigos que vayan a viajar Asia arou d Cada uno de nosotros nos encantó la comida y el servicio ofrecido. Yo conseguí Pad Thai y tengo que decir que es el mejor Pad Thai que he probado en este país. Me hizo pensar que atrás de lo mucho que me gustó la comida en Tailandia. Altamente recomendado

Gustos comida increíble, el personal es muy amable, y muy buenos precios. El mejor lugar para comer en la zona de Bangor.

We came here by happy accident, on a Saturday lunch time. The staff were lovely and the food came quickly. The food was absolutely amazing, very tasty and very reasonably priced, We had 3 meals with drinks and it came to around £25. We can't wait to go back & have recommended it to many friends.

Food is OK but does not have that zing that authentic Thai food should have :(, staff are friendly and they make a great effort which can't be faulted, unfortunately the food seems to lack the main basic Thai ingredients which is a shame and leaves it tasting like Chinese (which is really bland at best), large portions of rice though which is good and reasonably priced, great if you are hungry but don't expect anything that resembles authentic Thai food like you would be eating in Thailand if you order.

Really tasty and well prepared Thai food. Tom yam soup full of big chunks of lemongrass and galangal as it should be. Less than 30quid for two of us with drinks. Recommended!

Tried a couple of dishes to start with and ended up ordering practically the whole menu....Very reasonably priced and very friendly service, I would highly recommend.

Staff were friendly but quite slow considering there were only 3 others in the restaurant.Flavours were ok but quality of the ingredients wasn't great.We love Thai food but sorry to say I won't be going there again.

This was my second visit to the Aroy Dee, and I was not sure if it was a case of a one-off or not, so this time with more friends.We were seated by the door/bar area and could see the chef (owner) prepareing our meal, a sort of chef's table in a way.It is a family business (from what I gather), where the mother cooks, the daughter is the commis chef/barmaid and the son is front of house, but don't let this fool you.The service is second to none, an absolute treat. The dishes are authentic, tasty and really good value; each one individually prepared. My guest this evening was very well travelled, having just got back from a round trip of Japan, Thailand, Norway, Russia and Israel (this month) and his comments were "one of the best he's tasted".I have already reviewed the Thai Square in Windsor, this is a local equivelent, at half the price.A take-away menu is also available, which I will be sure to use in the very near future if you are a local of Arfon(aka Gwynedd)/Anglesey or just visiting, and want great food at a reasonable cost, this place is a must.

Situated in a quiet spot on Bangor High Street the outside of the Aroy Dee Thai Noodle Bar does not do the restaurant/takeaway justice. It is not a swanky showy place but do not let that put you off. The menu is possibly not as vast as other restaurants but there is plenty of choice and the food is excellent. In a small cooking area all the dishes are freshly cooked and arrive at the table nice and hot and the presentation is always lovely. I could eat there every night. The staff are charming and very attentive and the prices are very reasonable. Do give it a try. We are so glad that we went the first time and it is becoming a regular eating place for us now. There is limited parking on the main road outside but plenty of parking close by and it is just around the corner from the railway station. A takeaway service is also available.

This place always always delivers great HOT FOOD, yes there maybe a wait but everything is cooked from fresh. Love going here for our monthly treat.

I've been a student here for about 2 years now and always walked past this one since there's no sign of it doing takeaway and it isn't on just eat. Decided to take the plunge today and inquire and they do infact, so I went with the classic Pad Thai (pork). The management were friendly, could see the food being prepared in the kitchen behind the till. Decor was nice and homely, seemed like a family run place. I'd be comfortable having a meal there.The pad thai was really great, very fresh and flavorful and came with lime and nuts on the side (I'm guessing the nuts were separate in case you are allergic?). My only complaint is that the portion size was a little too small, but the quality of the food makes up for it.It's a shame I didn't come here earlier, I think if they were on just eat or something similar they'd get a lot more publicity.

We had intended to try out this place several times, but it was usually closed. Finally, it was open when we called. The 3 out of 5 star hygiene rating on the door as we entered should have been a warning.Service was slow, food was watery and greasy (an unfortunate combination), chicken was tough and rubbery,vegetables badly overcooked, and all the dishes were disappointingly tasteless (except for the taste of grease - yuck). We left most of our food as we couldn't stomach it. Couldn't face anything else to eat that day as the taste of grease was still in my mouth.We shall not be returning, there are plenty of better places in Bangor to eat.

Shared Starter was a large pile of shredded white cabbage with a carved carrot with minute examples of edible bits, some of which were greasy. Fine Noodles with Beansprouts (a) had no Beansprouts & (b) sat on the table for 5 minutes getting cold while we waited for the other dishes. Beef in Oyster Sauce with vegetables had 2 slices of onion & a few lumps of yellow (raw) pepper in a thin oily sauce that tasted of nothing with beef that was tough & tasteless. No hint of Oyster Sauce or a Chilli to be seen.Red Curry with pork saved teh day as we could pour that over the other stuff to get some flavour into the meal. £37:00 for the two us - Chinese 100 yards away would have given us a super meal for two for that sort of outlay.Decor poor, staff casually dressed which matched their attitude & service lamentably slow. Don't mind waiting for freshly cooked HOT food but being kept waiting for tepid, bland small portions is taking the micky.Won't be going back assuming they survive

My friend and I attempted this restaurant. We ordered chicken satay sticks and prawn crackers to start. The chicken didn't taste like actual meat, it was stringy and chewy and tasted disgusting. For main we both ordered pad thai, it was basically swimming in water, it was all soggy, chicken - again, chewy and didn't taste like proper meat. the coke we ordered tasted like water - tasteless.To be fair, the prawn crackers were nice.Will not be returning.

Small and unassuming, this little place delivers flavour and friendliness in bundles. Don't be put off by the first impression, the food is really tasty, hot and served pretty quickly. We live fairly locally and eat here a lot! Quality of food and service never changes.

walked past and looked at the menu last week and ended up going somewhere else. Then heard through word of mouth that it's great food, so tried it.Love the family vibe, son and mother cooking.Awesome street thai style food. I had Massaman thai curry... lush

We stumbled on the Noodle bar by accident. We were blown away with how good it was! We had a few starters, Pineapple fried rice with seafood and Pad Thai followed by Mango sticky rice. It was epic, just like it was back in Thailand! The restaurant was nice and clean and the staff were very friendly! Will definitely be back, SOON!

Had plans on going out of Bangor with my girlfriend, but decided to hit this Thai restaurant. So glad we did, this little gem is fantastic. You get hit with a real authentic taste of Thailand and the staff are great. Will definitely be making this a monthly visit. Value for money is hard to believe but the prices are so good. I can recommend the appetiser for 2 or have it yourself lol . A great night out

My third time here and never was I disappointed. Finer nuances of Thai spices brought out with home type cooking from hostess herself. The food smells and tastes so fresh almost giving a feel of visiting next door neighbour for evening informal dinner. Menu is not very complicated but the charm and enthusiasm of the staff and hostess makes this family run business worth a visit.

Wonderful flavours of Thailand and very friendly service. Just passing through Bangor so didn't know where to eat. Turned out an excellent choice.

We went to aroy dee last night... it's delightful. The staff are super helpful and the food is awesome. Great service and great value for money... will definitely be returning :)

I've eaten here a few times and the food is fabulous. Really authentic Thai food. There's lots of choice (vegetarian and meat). The food is freshly cooked so there's a bit of a wait before it arrives/ When it does, wow, it's fantastic. I tried a pudding this time too. Sticky rice with Mango. It's just like the dish I ate in Thailand. The staff are lovely and gave us a great welcome.

This friendly family-run restaurant offers great Thai food at really competitive prices. I try to visit at least once a week, and I am determined to work my way through the menu.This gem of a restaurant is unpretentious, and the focus is on great flavour, warm hospitality and good healthly affordable meals. They don't go overboard on the spicyness, so those new to Thai food need not be put off. If you like it hot, they are more than happy to spice it up for you. I'm pretty sure they offer a take away service too.Make sure you put a visit to Aroy Dee Thai Noodle Bar on your itinery when you visit Bangor, you won't be disappointed.

Really good food - went with a group of friends. Service a little slow, but worth the wait - authentic thai food at its best! Enjoyable evening for a reasonable price. Would visit again

Really nice food, would definitely recommend to anyone. took he take away option and it was really fast and efficient!

I heard lots of good reviews about here so thought if try it for myself. The place was really clean and the staff really helpful with us.I had a soup for starters I can remember the name but it was delicious full of Thai flavour and I had the pad Thai which I thought was great. My partner also rated the food very high. Plus it's all made fresh so that's a bonus. I will definatley go back again.

My partner and I came here late one evening we always tend to dine at the same place we fancied a change, a friend of ours had recommended Aroy Dee. We were greeted by a friendly waiter that was excellent throughout service. I am a chef and could say a bit fussy when eating out. I had the green curry and my partner had a red curry. Both dishes tasted fantastic and full of flavor. The presentation of the food was second to none. True passion for food was obvious. Aroy Dee will be on our list of restaurant to go to from now on. Good job guys!! see you soon :)

The outside may look nothing special but, once inside, the welcome is warm and friendly. Portion size is good and all is cooked fresh to order, yet there is not a long wait, at all. We enjoyed our mixed vegetables and sticky rice.As to there being no music - hooray! It was refreshing to be able to chat quietly without having to shout over loud music,as happens in some restaurants.All in all, it was very good value for money. My only slight criticism perhaps is that the seats are rather hard. Other than that, it was perfect.

First time eating at a Thai restaurant, Friendly,welcoming customer service as soon as you enter the restaurant. Food was delicious with appropriate portions (Tofu meal seemed less filling).A good range of deserts and the Banana fritter was fantastic. Overall great value for money and will definitely be going back.

Dropped in intending to ask for a takeaway menu, but the delicious smell from the kitchen made us stay - not a bad decision at all! Thai street food, small portions but packed with flavours! Was told everything was made from scratch, even the dipping sauce. Restaurant is not very busy, could use some local support!

Aroy Dee is the only Thai restaurant in Bangor. It has a friendly atmosphere and the food is deliciously fresh cooked upon order. The layout and the size of the restaurant makes the meal a lovely personal experience fulfilling your needs and stomach.The staffs are very friendly and the price is very affordable for students and others compared to other restaurants in Bangor. It is certainly worth trying. Aroy Dee is where me and my friends hangout for delicious feasts.

We were a large group of 9 so booked ahead but needn't have bothered, the place was empty. Unfortunately despite this we were all waiting for about an hour for our meal. The thai curries both red and green were nice (had better, and could cook to the same level myself), however the rice was very disappointing, cold and very starchy. Several people ordered various noodle dishes and commented that they were 'ok'. But 2 people ordering pad thai actually couldn't eat the dish. They serve all plates with flowers and shapes cut out of inedible raw vegetables, but this isn't really neccessary, particularly not if it is done at the expense of getting the meals out in a decent time. The atmosphere is a bit awkward but the staff are very nice. Perhap don't go as a group that big, or with particularly high expectations of an amazing meal.

Was in the area and decided to have Thai food. First impression of the restaurant was clean and a few other tables of diners so a good sign. I ordered the pandanus chicken starter and felt that there should be more seasoning but still quite good. The pad Thai was again quite good although I have tasted better. One point to note is that there is a distinct lack of music and was explained by the waiter that it was a cost reduction exercise as otherwise they would have to pay a licence fee. I was fine with that but it just felt a little odd to dine with no background music. The portion size was generous and the choices varied.

The decor is a bit office canteen but at least it's in a Bangkok style. Food cannot be faulted and the staff were a cheery helpful bunch.

Lovely tasty food, nice surroundings and very pleasant, helpful staff. Husband always reluctant to go for a meal but he really enjoyed it too. Only one very tiny moan - some quiet background music would have been nice.

I've been to Aroy Dee twice now; once in a group of four and once in a much larger group. Both times the food was incredible and the service impeccable. Fresh, authentic food with a perfectly sized menu, a lovely relaxed environment and the waiter that served us both times was incredibly accommodating and friendly. Also, the prices are really valuable. Can't recommend highly enough!

Never had Thai food. The food was excellent, the staff were great, would go hear again. Excellent value for money.

A friend and I really love Thai food so we thought we'd plop down to try this new place out in Bangor. It is really great. We had 5 courses and each one was incredibly tasty. Service was great and the restaurant is done out really nicely. Thai green and yellow curry are recommended.

This is properly cooked, delicious, vibrant Thai cuisine in Bangor on a budget.The menu has a sensible range of classic Thai dishes which you can select and add tofu, chicken, pork, beef or seafood to suit your own taste. There are five types of curry dishes for example - I had the yellow curry (with seafood) which was beautifully flavoured with a punch of heat, sweetness of coconut and sour notes of lime leaves, lemon grass etc.The interior is basic, cafe-style, but because of this and the sensible menu, you'll find the value-for-money excellent. In fact, you can't go wrong.The welcome and service was perfect too. We will be returning regularly for a splash of real taste!

I can't praise Aroy Dee enough. We went on the 21st December for my birthday (i had been there before with friends and wanted to share how good it was with my family) As soon as you're through the door you're greeted with a smile by the family who run it. The restaurant is bright and clean. A good choice of Thai favourites (i recommend the Thai green Curry), gorgeous coconut rice, wave after wave of flavour, beautifully presented with carved veggies. I had not mentioned that it was a special occasion, but the waiter, having overheard that it was my birthday, offered a desert of sweet mango rice and home made coconut ice cream, which we six of us shared together in glee. All of us ate for under £60, which is just a steal.Please support this new place and treat yourself at the same time! You wont regret it!
