Baan Sai Thai Restaurant in Lewes

Amazing restaurant fab food and service, the owners are lovely a gem of a restaurant

Excellent food and gluten-free no problem. The chef explained what I could have as a gluten-free option and said he could substitute some of the mixes he uses. The food was so well presented and perfect for my sisters birthday. All in all, it was an excellent evening. The restaurant was full, so we were lucky to have booked early. It was really nice to see the chef after the meal was complete, and thank him for cooking such lovely food and for the extra effort made to allow for my gluten-free diet. We will be back again.

Amazing food, very friendly service. Best Thai food I've had in quite some time! Will be eating here a lot more.

Great food and great staff, family run business, i try to go ever week, Steve

Always excellent service and very tasty , authentic food. Good value for money. We go there a few times every year and it's always a great experience. I have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant.

Lovely little restaurant, very friendly staff, food was great and reasonably priced. We would definitely go again when visiting Peacehaven.

Excellent value for money. I've been living here for 18 years and have never visited this restaurant. I really wish I had visited sooner.

Had a lovely evening here, really relaxed atmosphere. Great food, great staff and really reasonably priced. I can’t fault it.

I went tonight with a friend for a catch up and a meal, and what a lovely meal it was. The food, service and ambiance definitely 5 ⭐️. I had vegetable spring rolls with sweet chilli sauce for starters and Beef stir fry with Fragrant rice for my main meal, so delicious. There’s a deal on a Monday and Tuesday night which is a starter and a main meal for £12 great price. If you’re in peacehaven it’s well worth a visit, I’ll definitely be going back.

Booked in advance to be sure of a table. Had a great dinner with really friendly, attentive service from the team of two. Had the yellow curry which was excellent - enough kick to know it’s a Thai curry but not so much to blow your head off. Highly recommended.

Great food and friendly owners.

This little Thai restaurant is amazing, the food is delicious and catered well for my 4 year old. Highly recommended.

Delicious food, excellent service, good value. Dishes are authentic full of flavours and well presented. Because it's so good it's busy, so book your table. Staff are so helpful if your not sure what to try.

My first visit with a group of friends. Can't fault it. Service, food, atmosphere great. Dishes were a delight, full of flavour, delicious. Most certainly will return.

Warm welcome special 2 course menu on Tuesday only £12. (April 2024) house wine reasonably priced £16.50. Bottle. Owner takes order and serves tables. As well as answering phone for takeaway orders. Food is simple choice selection with good size portions. Access to venue is unsuitable for wheelchairs or people with limited movement. The restaurant is also accessed by stairs.

Thought for years that Baan Sai was just a takeaway restaurant. Saw a comment on Facebook about it also being dine in so thought we'd give it a try. WOW! Wasn't disappointed. Lovely food served on hot plates, a warm and comfy place to eat with somewhere to hang your coat. Friendly and attentive staff and super value for money. Bus stop just outside. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed 😀

Didn't know until recently that this was dine in as well as take away. Decided on a visit to catch up with family. Great food selection, well cooked and served on warmed plates. Restaurant is clean, warm and comfy and it's possible to hold a conversation. Nice to have somewhere to hang out coats without having them on the back of our seats. Friendly and attentive staff. We had a lovely evening and it didn't break the bank. Bus stop just outside so didn't need to take the car. Will certainly be recommending it to our friends and will most definitely be back. Thank you

Love coming here, spacious, calm surroundings, very friendly owner and staff, food delicious.

We have been to this restaurant several times before Never any cause for complaint but sadly this visit was disappointing 6 adults We all had the mixed starters deal Unfortunately the quality was not up to the usual standard All the items tasted the same very oily appeared to have been cooked in the same pan The mains were better but I had the mixed seafood stir fry sadly the mussels had not opened during cooking which casts doubt on quality of the product The other mains were good and the quantity was perfect The sides were excellent as well Then we received the bill we were surprised at the total cost For six adults the bill came to £ 180.00 Rather more than expected considering the quality of the food Shame really as befor we have used this restaurant many times before

Beautiful food. We had dumplings and wings to start with, the flavour was incredible. We then had a Thai green curry, stir fried beef and rice everything was cooked to perfection and all of the flavours complimented each other. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was great, it was quiet being midweek. Will definitely be back soon.

It was cold inside so not very nice to sit and eat like that. Food was average. Staff friendly.

Freshly made food, great service. Very reasonable prices. Will be back. Thank you

Great food. Really tasty. Very reasonably priced. Staff pleasant.

Good food, good service and great staff, easy to get to, great atmosphere, good price, never had a bad meal

Customer service was good but the dishes were not its a shame as I wanted to eat somewhere local and we love Thai food but green curry was like water no taste like boiled chicken in a creamy water and the rice was just pieces of cooked egg in rice and the noodles had no flavour with some peanut on top I hate to talk about local businesses but when you pay money and get this… I thought this would of been better than Thai elephant but seem to be same bracket hopefully they will take this as constructive criticism and improve but I would not return

We are so so lucky to have this gem of a restaurant right on our doorstep. It takes us 3 minutes to walk home. The owners and their staff are so friendly and accommodating and the food is very good. They will always help by spicing up your food if required or if they can sort out another dish that’s maybe not on the menu. The choice of food is very good and drinks and food costs are very reasonable. Please give it a try and I’m sure you will not be disappointed. We visit regularly and have never left disappointed or underwhelmed. A true find.

The 2 course set is definitely worth the price. My child loved the prawn toast very much. The Pad Thai reminded me of my trip to Thailand, though it could taste a bit stronger. Would like the Tom yum soup better if it was spicier, but that depends on one’s spice tolerance. Definitely will go again for other dishes.

Great food, very authentic. Great and attentive staff. Not too keen on the interior and decor but the food compensates that completely. Will be back.

The waiter was brilliant. The food was highly spiced, and definitely not the Thai food I know. I nearly chocked on the heat from spice of prawn soup, which the waiter asked the chef to listen. He did by mixing coconut milk and mushrooms. It then taxed of watered down mushrooms. The green prawn curry again was extremely spicy and very very thin. They seemed to have several prom lens the night we went. I understand but will not be going back .

Superb, Superb and even Superb. Lovely staff, a good Chef all round nice place for a meal out. a great Thai experience.

I went in for a quick bite takeaway, the lovely member of staff helped me decide, and explained all the meals and ingredients of my order, upon getting home it was so good I went back for a second night, I just had to try her other suggestion. On the wall are many accolades from the restraunt food awards, well deserved.

Really nice meal, good price for the set menu, friendly service.

Looking at the great reviews, we decided to give this restaurant a try. So glad we did, food excellent, service excellent and value for money. We will definitely returning

Fabulous Thai - we were walk ins on a rainy Monday night- we were welcomed warmly by the owner - the food was AMAZING- and even had hot plates to complement our meals- cannot recommend more highly- the best Thai in Peacehaven- a must! And reasonably priced!!

Lovely little place we visited whilst in Peacehaven for the weekend. Welcome was nice, food delicious and very reasonably priced, shame we’re not locals.

We have eaten here many times and never left disappointed. The good is fresh, healthy, beautifully presented and very tasty. Staff are kind, helpful and friendly. For me this is the best eatery in Peacehaven.

We enjoyed an amazing family meal in March for my husband’s birthday. The owner is very friendly and attentive. The food is fresh and authentic. Thank you !

We’ve been to little restaurant before and our most recent visit didn’t disappoint. First of all, the waitress / owner whoever she was gave us a lovely warm welcome and showed us to our table. Food was very good, wholesome and nicely presented. Very tasty too. I loved the Pad Thai. Prices were very reasonable; in fact ours was cheap. We went for the very reasonable priced option which I believe is restricted to Mondays and Tuesdays or a seasonal offer only. A point to note - on seeing this eatery from the roadside, you can be forgiven for thinking it is just a takeaway, as the frontage is small and not overly attractive. But be assured, behind that facade lies a spotlessly clean and inviting little restaurant. Thank you, Bandai!

A nice restaurant for Thai cuisine.

Underrated Thai restaurant as don't hear people suggest as a recommendation. Food is authentic and really impressed, will be back soon

We have been coming to Baan Sai for a couple of years now, the food is fantastic and very competitively priced. We put a phone order in and it is usually ready to collect in as little 15 minutes. Highly recommended, lovely family run restaurant take away and eat in.

Great choices of food. Great service

Amazing local Thai food and great staff and service! My wife and I have been going to this place for years now and it has always been fantastic with the food always nicely cooked and the staff really pleasant.

Great addition to Peacehaven, lovely food and service !!

Best Thai food we’ve had in a long time. I had the yellow chicken curry and my wife had the vegetarian green curry. Plentiful portions with perfect amount of spice. We took ours to go and ate on the park benches across the street

We didn't know the area, but looked at reviews. Food was lovely and all served with a smile. Not sure if it's just Mondays, but 2 courses for £12.00. :)

Fantastic first experience of this gem-of-a-takeaway/restaurant in Peacehaven. I had chicken pad krapow, coconut rice and satay chicken on skewers. The food was hot, fresh and tasted so authenticly Thai - wonderful meal! Friendly service too! All in all, a brilliant place to either eat in or take out. I will definitely be returning!! Would recommend to everyone

We are not exactly spoilt for choice in the area for nice places to eat but the Baan Sai is one of them. Excellent menu and food, informal atmosphere and excellent customer service, the staff are always friendly and attentive. One of my favourite places to eat.

Great food lovely staff. I recommend the crispy fish and the lime drink.

Great service great food authentic thaifood reasonable price very friendly staff Lovely and many dishes of food to choose from the manu It's worth it and my favourite is prawn kra prao and coconut rice fish dish with chefs specails, pad. Thai is also very good. They do take-away as well. Definitely will go back again soon. :-) Service 5 * Food 5* Value 5*

We have previously had takeaways from here and had no problems. However we ordered Satay chicken, wings with chilli and lemongrass, chicken Pad Thai and Red Duck Curry. The satay came with a tiny amount of satay sauce, not even enough for the 4 skewers. The wings didn't really have any taste. The mains were, quite honestly, awful. The curry had no spice and almost no flavour. It was way too watery and diluted and riddled with bits of fat. The Pad Thai had a strange taste and was one of the worst pad thais we have eaten. Unfortunately, the majority of the dinner went in the bin. Definitely will not be returning.

Will visit peace haven just for this restaurant

Very friendly staff and large tasty portions for a good price.

My son and daughter-in-law took me here for my birthday yesterday. Lovely variety of food and friendly staff. I know it's been here for a while but never thought of trying. It's SO worth it and no dearer than local Chinese or Indian restaurants. They do take-away as well. Definitely be back.

Always had delicious food from this restaurant. Staff very friendly. One of my favourites.

Really good Thai food at a reasonable price

Very tasty starters and mains pictures of desert

Cosy comfortable downstairs dining. Good food and service!

Fantastic food been here several times would thoroughly recommend this restaurant if you like Thai food there is nowhere better

Birthday dinner, so I didn't have to pay! Try the duck curry; it's outstanding! Nice people, friendly, good value.

Best food ever lolz yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lovely food, lovely staff. Booked again for June. Highly recommend.

Excellent service and food that's totally amazing...

Food is excellent and consistent, all staff very friendly and polite. Would highly recommend 😀

Best takeaway in peacehaven - very tasty! Recommend to all friends Used to use kemp thai but this is just as good if not better and no ridiculous £30 spend plus delivery charge!

Very tasty and friendly service

Great Thai food for a reasonable price. Staff was also very nice

I've had a lot of Thai food between Brighton and Peacehaven way and I have to say, this place is the real deal! Amazing, authentic food and proper spice when you need it. I'm so happy I live near this restaurant and that it's been opened up again for takeaways.

Ordered a Thai green curry and some other dishes from here yesterday. Fantastic food quality and value for money. Highly recommended!

Amazing food, quick to be ready after ordering, fantastic value for money :)

Best Thai in the area by far. We love it, it’s our family fav!

Excellent food, excellent service and very friendly staff. While it was very busy the staff stayed relaxed and attentive. Fully recommendable.

The best food ever in Brighton and Hove It's hot, fresh and so delicious

The absolute best in the area... My brother took me here for a meal and we treated like kings!... Wow what an amazing find this place is....

we were recommended this restaurant by a taxi driver. The sarter was hors d'oevres which were quite nice. Unfortunately from there on it was a disaster. the dishes hsd no texture over cooked poorley seasoned. the worst thai food I have ever had the misfortune to try to eat.. It closed for a while then re-opened so maybe they have rectified the problem. When we were there it seemed to have regular customers coming in so maybe they like it. In fairness give it a try . You can confirm either way for others.

Good menu, food was very good. Will go again when in the neighbourhood.

Best food for miles give it a try

The food was delicious staff very friendly highly recommend it... we came away from the special offer they have o a Monday and Tuesday 2 course for £10...absolute bargain. We ate from the normal menu tonight ant it was absolutely delicious as usual....Will be booking for my birthday in November with a larger party xx

Superb food with great menu. Very nice decor and friendly service. Thoroughly recommend?

Amazing food, extremely convenient and the stass has been very kind and welcoming! Very highly recommended!

Fantastic! Really excellent food, full of flavour and good quality ingredients, super friendly service, excellent value for money. Very, very impressed! I'll be back soon!

The food is excellent and fresh

Best thai food around. Wish they delivered

Delicious food (prawn cake was lush, aubergine/beancurd/mushroom in spicy caramel sauce was gorgeous and vegetable pad thai spot on), lovely team running the restaurant, very clean, decent pricing, good portion size. Will definitely return and will also use their take away service.

Went on a Tuesday so it was quiet. Food excellent service polite and friendly.

This is a hidden little gem! Food is extremely tasty, portions are good size and quality is impressive. We will be back!

Excellent service and fantastic food

Friendly staff. Good food. Reasonable prices. Shame it is currently shut since a vehicle entered through the front window 😱

Food is just amazing, it's not expensive and the staff are lovely. The premises have a small bar and beverages are served at the table.

Very good food and and great customer service. Never had a bad meal from here and I would always recommend.

Amazing food at really good prices.

Fantastic food and wonderful friendly service. Well worth a visit!

Went for the first time a few weeks ago, lovely food, cheerful, helpful staff & excellent value. Also must say that it was the cleanest restaurant I have been in for a very long time, the whole place was immaculate in every way. So good to see a food business that clearly has a real sense of pride in its offering. We will be back, thank you.

Great food, brilliant service at a good price!

BEST. FOOD. EVER. 😍😍😍 Pad Thai tastes just like I had in Thailand. Great people and lovely staff who always smile and make you feel at home. I love love love it and would eat here every day if I could! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
