I was excited to try this place, but left very disappointed, unconvinced. The dishes came out lukewarm (like they had been microwaved for not long enough, no sign of the food having been prepared fresh either). Minced chicken dish was UNBELIEVABLY salty. I don’t like to waste food, but on this occasion I had to. The rice was very mushy. An order for an iced tea came as a hot tea. It was also very difficult to get a waiter’s attention for another drink after… (Despite there only being two other tables with guests seated.)

We had an excellent evening meal (again). The food is excellent - really delicious, with plenty of choice and the restaurant was prepared to fast track our food as we were in a bit of a rush to go and see something. The restaurant was very full and we recommend booking early!

Made us sit outside on a cold October evening, even though we'd booked weeks before. Showed booking confirmation which did not say outside, but waitress laughed about it. Avoid in Winter!

I had booked a table for 7pm on 5th Oct. When we arrived the lady said I'd chosen to sit outside. I hadn't at all. There is nowhere on the booking form to choose to sit outside and nowhere on my confirmation email stated we would sit outside. She refused to change our table and answered all my queries with laughs and smirks which I did not appreciate. I said why would I choose to sit outside in October and she laughed and said, 'I know, I thought that'! We couldn't go elsewhere as it was a busy Saturday night with the literature festival on, which I think had contributed to us being sat outside - the lady had likely overbooked the restaurant. My friends enjoyed their food however my beef was chewy and fatty. Really disappointed. The waiting staff were great, but overall a really disappointing experience and I won't be returning.

Ate at the restaurant last night, good service, lots of effort put into the food prep with some authentic ingredients, so much potential....but the salt levels were absolutely off the scale bad. I'm talking almost inedible curries; we had to fish out the ingredients and leave all the sauce behind, the opposite of an authentic Thai food experience for me. FTR I lived in Thailand for nearly 2 years, speak the language and cook Thai food myself. This level of saltiness in the dishes in totally unnecessary. Chichester was the same when we ate there last year but we thought we'd give it another go. Not sure I can go back to the giggling squid anymore after this. Something needs to change please

Be very careful if you have a preference that isn't an allergy, as this restaurant is paternalistic to the extreme. I took my friend out for her birthday and she prefers gluten free and is vegetarian. The restaurant messed up her order, bringing her something with tiny shrimp on it, then told her she wasn't allowed to order something with gluten in it as she'd said she's allergic. She repeatedly said she wasn't allergic, that she was fine with some gluten and was happy to have the spring rolls. THEY WOULD NOT LET A GROWN WOMAN ON HER BIRTHDAY MAKE HER OWN CHOICE! Because it took them so long to figure out there was nothing she could eat, she had to sit there while we all ate our food. Horrible experience, happy birthday huh? Then then brought her out two tiny scoops of ice cream and suggested she share it with us, put the price on the receipt (£5.25!!!) and then took it off. And that was all the acknowledgement we got for a totally ruined and awkward evening.

I celebrated my birthday with family at Giggling squid and I must say, it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The service, food, and atmosphere were all perfect. The staff, particularly Sheldon, were attentive and regularly checked in to ensure everything was satisfactory, which was a nice touch. We started with their classic papaya salad, a signature dish that was incredibly fresh, perfectly balanced in flavor, and just the right portion size. It was the best papaya salad I’ve had in a long time. We also ordered the Bangkok Bites -2 starter platter, which, along with the papaya salad, easily fed three of us. For our mains, we had the Pad Thai Prawn, Chicken Pad Thai, and Beef Green Curry with coconut rice. Each dish was delicious, with the Beef Green Curry being a standout, especially when paired with the Tom Yum rice. Our little one enjoyed the Egg Fried Rice, which was also excellent. To round off the meal, we indulged in mini desserts that were perfectly portioned and delightful. I was pleasantly surprised with a complimentary birthday dessert, which was beautifully presented and a lovely gesture. Overall, it was a memorable dining experience, and I highly recommend them

I came away a little disappointed after my thai green curry, it was very average. My wife and our friends enjoyed their meals more but two of us that had sticky rice found it to be just a solid clump. I queried this with a waiter and was advised it was because I had taken it all out in one go, I was offered a replacement but declined as I thought this was down to my mistake. However my friend did take his rice out a little at a time but his was exactly the same. Overall the staff were polite and helpful but I wouldn’t rush back. I generally don’t leave reviews but given the cost of eating out I think it’s becoming more and more important to provide feedback good or bad.

Greeted by a very glum, dismissive and disinterested female manager. Luckily we didn’t engage again but was an awful first impression of a once brilliant restaurant, having had excellent experiences in both Sevenoaks and Tunbridge Wells. This restaurant does not live upto the name and sad to say the food here is very average - perhaps a bad night, although it was very quiet so not sure why. All other staff very professional, prompt and polite - a top down issue.

This was a peculiar experience. The food was ok, nothing different to a very average Thai 🇹🇭 restaurant. The service was polite but odd & the menu was only partially available. The atmosphere is more cafe than restaurant like. We felt hurried & not really very welcome. There a waiter constantly ‘playing’ the cutlery as he walked around. It was irritating & made me concerned about hygiene.

Sticky Chicken is my go to dish, I absolutely love it! But I must say the past few times I have ordered this dish there is hardly any chicken just fried coating? This is unacceptable as I don’t want to just be eating coating, also sometimes there are chilli’s in this dish and other times you don’t get any so this ends up an inconsistent dish. If anything I would suggest that you give people the option to add extra chicken on deliveroo so people can actually feel like they have eaten chicken instead of fried coating.

We visited on a busy New Year's Day early evening but were well looked after. The food was excellent; the zingy prawns were exceptionally spicy and so nice.

Upon entry we were seated quickly with a smile and an immediate allergy check to ensure nobody would have any issues which was appreciated even though none of us did. The staff were very friendly and accomodating to out party and took down orders quickly. The food did not take long at all to come out and the flavour was incredible. The duck was very soft. The rice was cooked perfectly, the lamb fell apart in the mouth. The roti were soft yet with a crispy crunch and delicious with the curry sauce. I had the soft shell crab and prawn curry and I would gladly eat it everyday. The spice was not overwhelming but just right and was present in each bite. The crispy coating on the crab and prawns was full of flavour and complimented the curry excellently, i even ate the peppercorns leaving nothing left in my bowl. There was even draught beer which was perfect to accompany the meal.

Food was fantastic and there was one particular elderly gentleman he was fantastic he made all 4 of us smile all evening with his charm. We were told he had been there from the start and you could see how much respect all the staff had for him . All the staff made my son's birthday. But the thing that made us all laugh was at the end the gentleman came over and gave me some sweets and said these are for you then turnt to my son and said the bill is for you honestly you at to be there to understand why it was so lovely. Were home now and still talking about what A fantastic evening we all had thanks to all the staff..

We rang on a Friday and they had a table for 8.15 which isn't too bad. The tastes and flavours were exquisite. I'm new to Thai food but will definitely try it more often. Top notch.

First giggling squid I’ve been to and I’ll be happy to visit again or another branch. The decor was beautiful, staff were lovely with good sense of humour. Very much enjoyed our refreshing cocktails and food. We were pleasantly surprised by how quickly it filled up around us, somewhat lucky we got a table walking in.

This was a celebration of my husband's BIG birthday and was a lovely experience. The food was delicious, the staff friendly and very helpful. They produced a special dessert with happy birthday written on the plate. We will certainly visit again.

Superb food and service - won’t think of anywhere else to go when looking for Thai food. Always attentive and knowledgeable staff makes the whole experience worth every penny.

Really enjoyable location and staff were very pleasant. Super expensive unfortunately but overall food was very nice and service totally consistent. A nice place for that unusual experience.

Horrible food when we ordered take away. The Tikka masala and prawn balti masala all tasted the same. Received plain Naan instead of garlic Naan. Also the biriyani was flavorless and tasteless. When we spoke to them about it their staff was rude and not even willing to listen to us. Total waste of money and time. They should just shut it down.
