Giggling Squid Warwick in Warwick

Great food and excellent service. Went above and beyond when the waiter found out it was our daughters birthday. Great GF options as well

We came here for my wife’s birthday. Everything was perfect. Friendly service, tasty food, great atmosphere. Will definitely come back.

This was a lovely place to eat - the food was tasty and freshly made. The staff were welcoming and helpful - I will definitely return when back in Warwick.

We found the giggling squid 7 years ago and returned for our wedding anniversary. We were not disappointed, the food was phenomenal, the staff were friendly and the place itself beautiful. I can highly recommend this restaurant, if you haven't been before then you're in for a real treat.

Dinner with a great friend. Love this place, a very warm welcome at the door, seated quickly and welcomed by a very nice waiter at our table, the team were very knowledgeable about the menus and looked totally engaged with all of their tables. The service style from everyone was fun in all of the right places and it was clear to see that The Management has nailed the art of inspiring their team with feeling confident to put their own personalities into their roles which I love. I know that Giggling Squid has multiple sites but it still feels like an owner operated local business which is a great achievement. Food is awesome, tasty with vibrant flavours that can only be achieved by using great ingredients and cooking to order (which is so quick here) some lovely wines and a great atmosphere. It is becoming more and more difficult to find places to eat at that really make you want to go back the very next day. Thank you for a memorable dining experience, we will be back! Kind regards Steven

Excellent flavours. Coming from south east Asia, this is one of the best Thai food I’ve ever had.

What an amazing place. Everything from the welcome to the food to the service is top class. Sharon made our day. We will be back again 100%

We’ve been fans of the Leamington location, but this was our first time at this spot, and it didn’t disappoint! The food was amazing as always—fresh, flavourful, and beautifully presented. Service was spot on, and our waitress, Myleen, was exceptional—attentive, friendly, and really made us feel welcome. We’ll definitely be back and would recommend it to anyone considering a visit!

Omg I love this place! It is very rare to find anywhere with such attention to every detail. Everything from the decor, to the cleanliness of the toilets, the friendly service and of course the food was amazing! My partner and I stumbled across this place when our original place for lunch turned out to be closed and we are very happy it was! I can’t fault a single thing and as a tourist I hope to see this franchise open up all over the world. Well done and thank you 🤩

Loved the decor and atmosphere. The food was absolutely wonderful. Little pricey but it was expected.

Amazing Thai experience. The restaurant was so tastefully decorated and staff were so accommodating. The service was impeccable, advising us on the dishes and very helpful when selecting. Food tasted just as it does in Thailand, very authentic. Well worth visiting and will definitely be back.

Red & green curry like dish water, with no difference in taste , actually tasteless .this is not Thai cooking. If you love Thai food don't go here ... if your ever in weymouth, try Monas . That's 💯 Thai.

I’m a regular at Giggling Squid, and the warm welcome I always receive was no different here in Warwick. From the outside, it might seem small, but once inside, the restaurant offers ample dining space, including a cozy downstairs area. The food arrived promptly, and Stephan provided excellent service throughout our meal. As always with this chain, the portions were generous, and the quality didn’t disappoint. A lovely experience overall – Giggling Squid in Warwick lives up to the standard I've come to expect!

This is a chain. Food was decent enough but I am comparing it with the super bland UK food. Nice environment and pretty decent food selection.

If you're looking for a memorable dining experience that blends the vibrant flavours of Thai street food with a delightful ambience, Giggling Squid should be at the top of your list! From the moment I stepped inside, I was swooned by the cute settings, adorned with colourful flowers that sensibly complement each dish's artistic presentation. The charming decor has an air of warmth, making it the perfect dining experience. First up were the Pork Dumplings. These steamed beauties blew me away. Each dumpling was filled with tender, succulent pork, perfectly paired with a zesty, gingery soy and rice vinegar dip. They’re a fantastic introduction, setting a high standard for the dishes that followed. Next up, I tried the Salt & Pepper Squid, Each bite of crunchy squid was perfectly seasoned and had just the right amount of spice & batter. This is undoubtedly a must-try for any seafood lover. My partner ordered the Massaman Curry. With its mythical origins and legendary flavours, it lived up to the hype and then some! Simmered to perfection in rich coconut milk and beautifully perfumed with cardamom, every spoonful felt like a warm hug. Lastly, I ordered the Spicy Double Curry Seabass. This dish was a festival of flavours with its succulent seabass fillets complemented by a colourful medley of aubergine, pea aubergines, fine beans, and sweet-hearted cabbage. The sauce had a slight kick but I was expecting more when it came to the spice level although still very tasty. The waitress was very friendly and knowledgeable regarding the menu, thank-you I would definitely return.

We love giggling squid but this time everything was sweet and no chilli. Even the chilli oil was no spice. People were lovely as usual

Great place to visit. Just on a walk in. And welcomed us right away. Great service very attentive by all the staff. Food was quick and looked amazing and tasted the same amazing. All round fantastic experience may even return tomorrow. Many thanks for looking after us.

Attractive and well laid out. Right in the middle of various attractions in Warwick. The staff are attentive and friendly. They are well trained and well informed. The food is very good and is well presented. Highly recommended

Amazing food and great service by Ayda!

Can't fault it. Great food, expensive, but great food quality and the taste was excellent. The staff were great and very attentive. We had gluten intolerant members in our party and they took us through the menu to help us out with our selections. I would say the pad Thais are good enough, no need to venture too much into the specials. Some specials don't come with rice or noodles and the side of noodles is maybe too much volume of food then! Family of 4 was £120 for starters mains and drinks.

Surprisingly there don't appear to be too many restaurants offering al fresco dining in Warwick. We were therefore glad to get a walk in at the Giggling Squid. We had the mixed starter platter, sticky chicken, pad thai and red curry. All of the dishes were delicious and the mocktails were all lovely too. The staff were very friendly and attentive and made us feel very welcome too.

Wonderful experience. The lady manager was full of joy and good advice. We had two sharing plates which were delicious. The Thai wine was surprisingly good!

Really enjoyed Giggling Squid (and didn't realize it's a chain with about 50 restaurants in the UK). Creative, wide-ranging menu, plenty of plant-based/vegan options, and high-quality ingredients. Fresh and flavorful appetizers and mains. Nice atmosphere and friendly, efficient staff. Visited another Giggling Squid in Salisbury and just as good.

Great Thai food. We had a quick lunch and enjoyed well plated fresh food

Absolutely amazing food. Quite clearly the friendliest and best restaurant in Warwick. Would highly recommend. Dealt with all needs amazingly. Fantastic service. Would come again.

Great food Gluten free options were lovely

It was very busy and a good job that we had reserved a table. we were shown to a small table for 2 (all quite cramped) in the upstairs restaurant The service was impeccable, and the food too was lovely! My green chicken curry was yummie, the rice when it arrived turned out to be "sticky" which I hadn't ordered .. but it went well with the green curry so no real problms My husband had the belly of pork, which was also very nice and all this was followed by a small helping of something with salted caramel which was doubly yummie!, So yes,,we had a lovely evening!

Warm and welcoming staff. Excellent service. The salt &Black pepper squid and Duck rolls were excellent as was the pad Thai and jungle curry. We weren’t rushed and the lady (sorry we didn’t get her name) who served us was fantastic. Wish we had one in York.

Visited on Monday 22.7.24. We received a warm welcome on entering the restaurant and the service was fantastic. We really enjoyed our meal and chatting with lady who served us. The duck rolls and salt and pepper squid are excellent, as was the Pad Thai and the jungle curry. We need a Giggling Squid in York

Food is AMAZING, every city we go to with a Giggling Squid, we have to go!

Great food as always with fabulous starters! The sticky chicken main course is highly recommended. Authentic taste, fresh, crispy and full of flavour!

Visited after a recommendation from a friend and she was was not wrong! Great service, amazing food and a great with allergies. Have never been to a Giggling Squid before but will now try others.

What a remarkable little restaurant we chanced upon walking up the high-street. The range was very impressive - from all manner of cocktails to signature dishes to exotic desserts. What a restauranteur! We chose the Thai Red curry, Beef Massaman, pad Thai and Honey-Crispy Seafood. The Honey-Crispy Seafood was outstanding, crispy yet juicy under the batter. How did they do that? The floral decor was very pleasant too, we liked the matcha-green wall colour scheme. The service was courteous. A delightful restaurant. Will revisit one day for sure.

We had an amazing meal here with fabulous service. The food was excellent and you would never know that this is part of a chain. The team serving us were extremely friendly and very welcoming to my guide dog as well. I can also recommend their cocktails. I would recommend visiting them in Warwick, but I definitely plan to go to another of their restaurants nearer home for more great food

Delicious and authentic Thai food, reasonably priced and served with impeccable service in stunning surroundings. A group of us came for dinner, all ordered different dishes, starters and drinks. Everything was hot and packed full of flavour. Service was very attentive, without being intrusive. Everything looked stunning, decor, crockery, even the takeaway bags for what we couldn’t finish! I have never visited a Giggling Squid before, but if they are all to this standard then I will certainly try another one.

My friend and I had lunch at the Giggling Squid in Warwick. It was so easy to find. We arrived early for our booking but they were very welcoming and showed us to a seat straight away. My friend has a gluten allergy so the server gave her a menu card that she was able to scan and check for allergens in the food and found there was quite a lot she could eat. It was very easy to use. The food was delicious, the atmosphere relaxed and the staff were friendly and attentive. We will definitely go back again.

Staff is incredibly friendly.had a wonderful time

We enjoyed a lovely early Father's day meal. We were served by Stephen who was absolutely wonderful, he made us laugh and looked after us so well. We really enjoyed the food and the ambience. Thank you!

Food was fantastic service was the same. 10/10

4/5 Very tasty food with a good atmosphere. Some of the food was very rich for a regular English diet so prepare your stomach to feel a bit strange if you're not familiar with Thai Food. Subjectively for me, Thai food is not a favourite but I enjoyed what I had. Very expensive but the quality is high, so it's to be expected.

Ordered loads of different food and I have to say I was really impressed at how quick the food came, how friendly and efficient the staff were and how absolutely delicious all the food is, including their desert, I highly recommend going here for a good dinner, you won't be disappointed

Very accommodating. The food was amazing. The staff are lovely. Our waiter was Stephen and we went above and beyond to look after our large group. I highly recommend the one bite salmon.

I recently dined at Giggling Squid and had a delightful experience. The highlight of the meal was the honey seafood dish, which was perfectly balanced and extremely filling. The service was prompt and friendly, making the overall experience memorable. I highly recommend Giggling Squid for anyone craving authentic Thai cuisine.

Friendly staff, big portions and very yummy . It was my first visit but I’m sure I will back soon

Amazing food and atmosphere. Hope will back soon

We shared 5 starters and some sticky rice, it was all very tasty

Siri the waitress was fantastic. She is very friendly and the food was good.

Don’t always give reviews but had a great experience at giggling squid warwick. Food was lovely, staff very friendly and nice, beautiful interiors! Will definitely be back.

I have to admit I was dragged in here by my wife. I was looking for Wetherspoons. But she was hungry, & she won. What a great place, the staff were super friendly and helpful we had a really great meal there was a lunch time special menu, and the regular menu also a kids menu .. The food was fantastic, super tasty fresh cooked Thai food is hard to beat. And even better my good lady paid.

Lovely staff nice food so nice inside romantic

Yummy food, great service and atmosphere! Staff were able to advise & help me tailor my dish, I will be back☺️

Amazing staff, very kind and attentive. Cozy atmosphere, romantic, beautiful restaurant and Amazing food. I recommend 10000000%.

We only really ended up here because most other places in Warwick were either full or closed, but this turned out to be a good thing. The service was really friendly and welcoming. We were given plenty of time and space to look at the menu and decide what we wanted without feeling pressured to order quickly. The menu had a nice range of items which were well described so it was clear what you were getting. Everything we had was beautifully cooked and tasted very fresh. There was a nice atmosphere in the restaurant and it was great to see lots of families eating there. Just watch out for the 10% "discretionary" service charge which is automatically added to your bill. We didn't notice this until we had already left and it added quite a hefty amount to an already high bill. It's hardly "discretionary" if you add it automatically without telling or checking with the customer - it's just another charge.

We've been here on three occasions, and the food here is very tasty (although definitely not cheap - none of the dishes come with rice included so you need to purchase it separately). On the last two occasions we were disappointed to see that around a third of the items on the menu were not available, usually seafood. I urge anybody to ring first and ASK IF THERE IS ANYTHING UNAVAILABLE on the menu that day, before booking. Favourite dishes: Salt & Pepper Squid Sticky Chicken Chicken Massaman Curry Final note: beware of meals with two chillies, they are very spicy!

Portion was extremely small, Thai red curry was served in something no bigger than a coffee cup. Extremely disappointing!! The side portion of tofu was very dehydrated, meager and tasteless. The sticky rice was not fresh but rather a boil in the bag instant rice. Not restaurant standard. All done to maximise profit with no effort put into the meal. Felt conned. Will not return to Giggling Squid.

The standard on saturday at Warwick was not good. There were 5 of us , the mains were full of bread to fill it out…hardly any meat …nothing like experience we had at Christmas. It was a Mother’s Day lunch before the rugby and I have reflected on it over the weekend so much so I felt I must write a review. £200 and very underwhelming for a place I’ve always enjoyed…starter olatter was cold too! As I had guests I didn’t want to fuss at the table just very disappointing.

We had a wonderful lunch here. The kids loved it as much as the adults. Staff were attentive and very welcoming. A very big thank you to Sylvia nothing was ever to much, you are an amazing host !!!

Interesting menu, good food, charming service.

Warwick Giggling Squid. Great menu, we had the lunch Tapas. Lots of selection of excellent tasty food served hot. Spicy Thai and mild food too to choose from. Service faultless from happy and welcoming front of house staff. Have also experienced their Stratford restaurant, just as good. No complaints from me.

Food is delicious Service super good Food Quality and presentation is nice Well knowledgeable staff Nice ambiance Thank you

Long time customer, very disappointed to see you’ve pulled out of Knowle and we won’t be supporting you going forward.

This is our second time back to Windsor and to the Giggling Squid. The service and food was 10/10. The cocktails were delicious and the staff were amazing. So helpful, happy and attentive. We will be back. This is the best Giggling Squid we have been to and we have been to a few of them around the UK.

Stunningly decorated and delicious food we came to celebrate our engagement with friends and had a wonderful time after our proposal at warwick castle.

We ordered fish & vegetarian dishes - perhaps that was our mistake, as they seems to be assembled rather than cooked. Got the impression that the overpriced mushroom dishes were bought in & reheated. Papaya salad good. We probably wouldn't revisit - it was average & rather expensive. Realised it's part of a chain it explains the experience. Polite & well meaning staff

Good food but many dishes missing from the menu

We booked a table as we thought that it would be busy but the place was relatively empty with 2 tables with people sat at. We ordered drinks which were relatively quick to arrive. For food we had a sharing platter which some seafood items on it wasn't available so they replaced the items with other items that were on the platter. These came out cold which we thought was a little odd but later on while we were there we noticed other people who had ordered similar complained multiple times that it was cold each time they brought it out again to them. For the main I had the Thai red curry with coconut rice which both of these were really good and would have these again. The other food which was ordered wasn't as good. Overall, the service dropped off while we were there even though the place was quiet with only a few tables filled by the time we were leaving. It was hard to get someones attention and the attentiveness dropped. The servers seemed to change while we were there, think they had gone on break the ones who had greeted us first and took our order. The staff seemed friendly though, especially I believe it was the manager and the senior staff member. The place seemed clean. There were issues with the card machine which meant we couldn't pay using card (which they were trying to resolve but unsuccessfully) and one of the people in the group had to go to a cash point down the road to get cash out so we could pay the bill. The location is good.

LOVED IT !!! great place for some thai food, and the restorant is well decorated.

The food and service is excellent. The atmosphere and decor is bright, colourful and inviting. However the reason for not awarding 5 stars is there were as many as 9 menu items unavailable on the evening, including Chicken Satay !!! In addition the service charge is 15%, but a staff member assured us they receive some of it.

Always a pleasure to return, it's been a while. It is the perfect post racing treat.

Excellent service and amazing food! We came for our anniversary and we had a lovely evening! We had a glass of Prosecco for our anniversary too! Such a fab place thank you Siri and the team

First time ordered for delivery and 1 item was missing. I called the restaurant for then to rectify the issue. I was told to do a complaint to the delivery company and have it refunded.they didn't even try to send the missing item for us to be satisfied with the food. The food was supposed to be great but was ruined with the missing item. And also, I was only refunded 80p for the missing rice. This is unbelievable. even in local takeaways you can't get a portion of rice for 80p.

Food was lovely and fresh. I feel that the potion sizes could be a little large though especially for the price.

Awesome food, great staff, lovely ambience, something for everyone on the menu. Always a pleasure dining here. The crispy squid is divine

Food wasn't good. The noodles were very oily and greasy.

Came here for a works meal outing. Booking the table was simple on the website. We turned up and seated very quickly, service was very attentive and overall a tasty meal. Plenty of selection at reasonable prices. Very good and definitely recommend.

We had a fine meal on a freezing Sunday evening - well cooked and efficiently served. Lots of Northern Soul music too. A well run place.

Yesterday I visited this restaurant for the second time. I was blown away by the team managing it. From cooks to waiters and waitresses, all of them have been so amazing, sociable and helpful with us. They were helping with my daughter curiosity and taken her for a stroll to give us a few minutes to eat. The food was divine and we felt very comfortable at all times. Thank you Team!

Lunch meet up. Food very good, service good. Very quiet

Wonderful, speedy service, kind and attentive staff. Would thoroughly recommend

Siri was amazing , it was my first time and she couldnt do enough for me , even giving me a birthday sing sing and a birthday ice cream scoop. She made it extremely memorable

excellent food, drinks and service. The menu is tweaked on a regular basis but the food is consistently good and authentic.

Went in for a meal with my girlfriend and our friends, the starters were incredible, especially the pork belly bites. The mains were amazing too, the beef gra pao (i think) was really good and quite spicy. Cocktails and wines also very tasty! Our server Siri couldnt do enough for us either☺️

We had two pad thai (one vegetarian and one chicken), the salmon bites and the morning glory. We recently went to Thailand so maybe our standards are very high. The texture and consistency was not bad, but we both thought that the noodles lacked flavour (not salty or acidic enough). The puffy fried tofu also seemed a bit stale (quite hard as if it had been kept to the side after marinating for a while). That being said, the food was not bad and we ate everything. The service was good and the food came very quickly and for the price we didn’t feel like we got ripped off. The salmon bites were nice but the morning glory also lacked some flavour.

We walked in to ask for a table. The staff member was on what sounded like a personal phone call! She peered round the corner at us and continued her call. We left as were clearly inconveniencing her!

Really excellent and delicious food. Much better than usual fare. Varied and unusual dishes. We had a sharing platter, (including rice balls), then a pad noodle dish, and a bottle of Chenin. Really beautiful.

Having had a truly awful meal at Giggling Squid Bury St Edmunds, we came here with some trepidation. This was immediately dispelled by the warm welcome from Sylwia, the lovely young Polish waitress who served us throughout. We opted for the tapas plates; as one of us is gluten-intolerant and each tapas plate contained at least one item including gluten, Sylwia swapped that item for another. The food was beautifully presented, hot, tasty and delicious. Also the restaurant was beautifully decorated with a lovely ambience. We will certainly be coming back.

Great lunch here, delicious food, rapid service, pleasant surroundings.

Excellent food. My mixed fish dish was delicately flavoured with a kick, but not too hot. Service was very good. Prices reasonable. We had a bottle of Thai rose wine (a first for me) which was good.

I forgot when I booked that I had asked for a quiet table - upon arrival we were asked where we’d like to sit as I’d mentioned a quiet table. We chose to sit in the restaurant area by the main doors. I was a little worried we might be forgotten as we were the only table in this area. I didn’t need to worry as all of the staff were fantastic - very friendly and attentive. The food was delicious as always and arrived promptly. They even noticed the birthday cards on the table and bought out a little desert with happy birthday written on which I thought was a lovely touch. Would highly recommend giggling squid Warwick! Thank you.

It’s a hit and miss for us. Some of the dishes stood out whereas rest were not upto mark. The beef dishes, salmon starter, Thai curry and rice were among the nice ones whereas noodle and salad were the worst. Most of the items are deep fried which came as a shame especially for salad. The portions were good and filling. Good staff but ambience I prefer Leamington Spa. Over all a good experience. Visited Sep 23

Really nice food and friendly service. I prefer the decor of the Leamington restaurant to the cellar at Warwick.

Delicious food. Great service. Really enjoyed the lunch.

Really lovely lunch in Warwick.Beautiful flavours and presentation.Staff very efficient.A lovely atmosphere for Saturday lunch with my daughter.

Excellent evening at Giggling Squid in Warwick celebrating our 53rd wedding anniversary. We were warmly greeted by Silvia who had been extremely helpful on the telephone earlier when I was checking our booking. Our waitress Siri was a joy, she made excellent recommendations for our...

Highly recommended Giggling squid at Warwick, great experience, definitely will be back soon. Red Thai curry is my favourite

Delicious food, fab cocktails and wonderful service!

Not a huge menu but the meals we had were very tasty and well cooked.
