Kao Hom in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Super fresh, tasty, authentic Thai food cooked by lovely ladies, just what you need when you want healthy bold flavours and something nourishing totally recommended the prawn salad if your not spice shy, my new favourite take out in town

Eaten here many times, had a takeaway this evening as great as ever. A must try.

Authentic as they come. I eat a lot of Thai food and this is some of the best I’ve ever had, and excellent value for money. 10/10, highly recommend. Chicken satay amazing!

We stumbled across this takeaway after a day at the beach and were blown away by the food! We had a beef, pork + veg massaman curry, chicken pad Thai, samosas, tod min paa and Jasmin rice. All of it was delicious, the massaman Currys especially are the best Thai Currys we've ever eaten. The prices are fantastic. The only thing that i would recommend is that you phone ahead as the wait is around 45min that are sooo busy. We can't wait to go back :)

I love this place, food tasted so good. We’re will be back 😋😋😋

After a warm day out yesterday, we decided to get a thai takeaway. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They were due to close but stayed open to fulfil our order so we did not go hungry. I had Satay chicken on skewers for starters, which was delicious. I followed up with King Prawn Penang with Jasmine rice which was spicy and again very tasty. Prices were very reasonable too. The only accept cash but there is a Barclays cash machine not far away. We both enjoyed the food so much, we returned again tonight and I had King Prawn pad Thai. Again a large portion which I thoroughly enjoyed. 5 stars for food and service.

Really authentic Thai food!! Sooooo delicious highly recommend, the women who work here are really lovely too… remember to bring cash though :) got our food with really fast service and went and sat on the cliff to watch sunset

Lacking flavour. Long wait and greasy tempura. Would not go again.

Fantastic food from a tiny van, don't know how they manage it. Good prices too. Highly recommended

It’s take away prepared by amazing ladies.

We’ve been driving past this place for ages and tonight we decided to get a takeaway for the family…..it was terrible! Just really cheap ingredients in ridiculously watery sauce on every dish. Would not recommend.

Amazing food and amazing value. We are on our last night in Newquay and had to try here again as we last ate here jn 2019. The food did not disappoint. Great quality and amazing value. This was the best value meal that we have had during our week In Newquay. Service was quick and the food so tasty. We cannot recommend enough.

Couldn't agree more with their slogan "great good, great portions great prices". What an excellent operation they have going on here out of a small street van. My red curry was very tasty and easily the best meal that I have had on holiday. Highly recommended if you enjoy authentic Thai food.

Although advertised as ‘dine-in’ it is NOT. It is a takeaway operating out of a van. The only ‘dine-in’ option, if you can call it that, is to sit on the wall next to it! We walked 15-minutes to get there to find this out. The staff seemed confused when asked where the dine-in section was. We went elsewhere.

I tried 9 & 24 and I loved them 😊

Wrong order received. Made them aware. They changed the order. But the chef wasn't happy and we could she her cooking in anger. Never ever going to order again from this place.

Very tasty dishes and definitely worth trying if you like Thai food. You do have to pre order and pick up. It's also cash only.

Authentic Thai food, fast service, great portions with plenty of meat and prawns. Friendly service.

Great food!!! But they often miss something out when you collect it and they are soooo grumpy!!

Big portion, delicious food and lovely staff.

Tasteless pad Thai in orange sauce with few ingredients (cardboard like bland chicken) mostly rice noodles. Not authentic Pad Thai & quite disappointing considering the chefs are Thai and there seemed to be good reviews (which convinced me to try this place as there's not much takeaways close by in that area).

We haven’t used this for a couple of months so decided to tonight. Sent my order before 5pm via text to collect around 7pm as we have always done. Only to find they don’t read text messages anymore. This took them 15mins to decide this. Then they asked us to tell them the numbers for the food and wouldn’t read the list (which we always send). This meant going to the back of a queue and waiting 45 mins for the food. Very disappointing service but can’t fault the food.

Transported back to Thailand with this food! Proper home cooking by the ladies. Light and flavoursome - all the veg options are delicious (and not just packed with potatoes). Just the right heat. Couldn't ask for a more authentic and tasty experience after a long day in the sea. Thank you.

Hands down the best and most authentic thai I have had in a very long time 😊 I had the vege Thai red and my husband had Thai green with chicken. Will definitely be back!

Easy to park- Pulled over for a quick bite- wasn’t that busy ordered a beef massaman and pad Thai - stated would be 17 mins and was £15. All good. Came out piping hot, on time and tasty! Will recommend and use again!

Ordered sweet chilli chicken with red and green peppers. Didn't have peppers so rather than say anything just gave me some pretty dry tasteless noodles with a few bits of chicken and half a cabbage leaf. Got my money back

We’ve been meaning to try this place for years as we’ve only ever heard amazing things about the food. Having a Thai step mum who is an amazing cook I know what good Thai food tastes like and I can only say that the food from here is up there with the best I’ve ever tasted. We love it so much we’ve been back every week for the last month and every time the food has been tasty, fresh and with friendly service. We can’t recommend it highly enough.

This is the second time we have had food from here on our holiday to newquay, we also visited last year. The food is incredible and the spices/flavouring are spot on. We had the Thai green curry, sweet chilli chicken noodles, rice and peanut chicken. This was all cooked perfectly, fast collection and great portion sizes for the price.

Got a few meals for takeaway to share with the partner, the food was amazing and I couldn't get enough. Sad that the opening hours are so short.

Fantastic food been there twice now its a 15 mile drive for us but well worth it.

Great thai take away for all the family. Kids lo ed the chicken pad thai. Nice and spicy prawn penang. Lovely thai ladies who run this from 5pm onwards.

Amazing value - flavourful, big portions & high quality. These women bring their recipes to us!

Authentic Thai food - great little spot

I was looking forward to this given the good reviews. Had to wait 30 minutes for food even though I got there just after they opened. The prawns tasted sickly sweet but also bitter. Not good. Even though it was disappointing, I ate it as I though it was edible. Later on, I felt ill and threw up. So now I question their hygiene and whether the food was fresh. The prawns were obviously gone off but served anyway. Disgusting rip off. The food inspectors need to revisit this trailer takeaway.

The ladies here really know how to cook up a feast. I’ve eaten a lot of Thai food in my time, and the food here is sublime. The meat is always excellent quantity, and there’s plenty of it! They’re happy to moderate spiciness for you which is impressive considering how busy they are, and with such a tiny kitchen. My favourites are the Yum Nua spicy beef salad and the duck red curry with pineapple and tomatoes. When I ever have friends stay, this a go to as I know they won’t disappoint. Excellent portion sizes to boot.

Go try this street food fresh and tasty

So fresh so good value. Love it, red curry is the best

Food is amazing! Been here a few times, always fresh and delicious. Highly recommend

Wow! Amazing Thai food. Easily as good as anything I've had in Thailand, super fresh, tasty, quality. Miracle women :)

This was at the end of the road where we were staying and there were queues every night. Food was amazing and would definitely recommend. You can phone and pre-order.

Fantastic food and great prices. Also my fussy teenager enjoyed. Saying the best food ever.

Cooked fresh in front of you, flavoursome and an excellent price.

This takeaway van is regularly recommended on the Newquay Facebook Page, this was our first try & I’m kicking myself for so many missed meals. The food is outrageously good, the portions huge & the prices really reasonable. You MUST make sure to phone your order through at least an hour before you want to pick up as this place gets rammed & if you pop the car wash (the van is in the car park)into your Waze the van is easy to find. Don’t miss out on a truly memorable food experience next time you’re in Newquay .

We saw the large, daily queues, and thought we've got to try it. Next time I'll ring my order through before collecting, but the food was fantastic

After looking up this in the area, this one seemed to have the best reviews so went to give it a try. It's a small van by a car wash so not the most obvious spot. There was already a couple of people waiting in front of me which is often a good sign! There is a good variety of different starters and mains. I ordered 2 starters, a rice and a stir fry which came to just under £20. The portions are really big and I have could probably be shared if you are not big eaters. There was around a 40 minute wait but the food was the best I've had since visiting Newquay. You can call in advance to order too. Will be visiting again before I leave!

What a find!!! The most delicious food. We had Chicken green curry and a stir fry chicken dish. They were so tasty and beautifully spiced and seasoned. I didn’t want to stop eating even when I was full. DELICIOUS! Having not managed to get into anywhere to ‘eat in’ in Newquay on a Friday night we gave up and stopped at this tiny van which is on the outskirts of town. Lovely ladies cooking lovely food. I’m glad we found it. Highly recommend!!

Love it ....getting more popular though so can be a wait but still worth it

Fantastic food but poor service. Was told 45ins, and actually waited 1 HR 30.... As did everyone else there that Wednesday evening.

Amazing food. Having previously lived in Thailand, I am super fussy when it comes to Thai food. This food is authentic and tasty! There was quite a long wait but to be honest it was well with the wait. If only we lived here, we would visit all the time.

Not very good. The stir fry was like soup and the chicken pad thai was bland, there weren't any peanuts and the chicken tasted like it had been heated up a few times, it was tough as old boot.

Incredible Thai! Super authentic and delicious

Excellent food from some very friendly ladies and out of a trailer!!

Excellent Thai food, really authentic Thai cooking all dishes were fantastic and fresh, the ladies that serve are very friendly hope to visit again sometime soon, Thank you

Can’t rate them highly enough, food only took 30 minutes from ordering to pick up, and was piping hot when taken away, price is extremely good for the quality of food you get, everything we ordered was to perfection, will be back soon!

Thai food cooked to order by three ladies in a small caravan! Portions are generous and very tasty. Be prepared to order and then wait to collect.

Sorry to say but this was honestly the worst Thai food I've ever eaten. The pad Thai was so bland and didn't have any peanuts, the stir fry we ordered was like a soup (and shouldn't have been) and the tempura veg was in huge dumplings rather than tempura batter. Would not recommend - prices are cheap and you get big portions but we wasted loads and it wasn't worth it. Gutted!

Had heard good things about this Thai takeaway van so thought we would give it a try. It did not disappoint! Had to wait 40mins for the food, but you can see why. Authentic Thai food cooked to order that tastes amazing! If you are...

We tried this lovely Thai van whilst on holiday in Newquay staying in a nearby b&b and we were not disappointed! Plentiful portions and great quality food and pricing. We would definitely order from here again if in the area.

This is a small van that serves the best Thai food we have ever tasted. You can see the chef cooking your meal. As she cooked she used a new spoon each time to test the taste and add a new or more spice. You...

First Time eating Asian out and IM STILL DREAMING ABOUT the food My friends and I ate yersterday. In fact this was the BEST THAI FOOD I EVER EATEN IN A WHILE! it was fresh and VERY savory! I wish there could have a 10 stars. This family business is totally worth it!! Keep it UP!

Stunning food. Love the tung tong 😊

Currently on holiday and spotted this driving past. Read the reviews on here and decided to give it a go and we wasn't disappointed. Really enjoyed it. Freshly made infront of us and didn't have to wait long. Will definitely try and get another visit in before we go home

Very tasty and fresh! Thai fish cakes were gorgeous 😍

Fantastic food if you are new to Tai food this is an excellent take away to start exploring authentic Tai food.

My wife had yum relay and I had pad kra pow,it was so nice that this is the only place we ate. Excellent service with a smile highly recommend. Thank you ladies Meaow and connor.

The 5 stars are for the food. It is delicious. They just need to sort their ordering and collection methods. A guy was waiting an hour for his order to find it was already bagged up and had been sitting there a while. A simple whiteboard on display showing people waiting would work well during busy times. And please give realistic cooking times. We watched as four orders were all given the same collection time. As I've said the food is amazing, just make slight changes for busy periods and then everything will be great.

Thai van in Newquay....its lush !

Best Thai food in Cornwall! The ladies are so friendly, the food is amazing and really well priced.

Good food. Fast and friendly service.

Greatcfood. Great choice. Great value for money!

This is good, authentic Thai food at a great price. Green curry has the spice required for UK tastes, would love it to be Thai spicy. Best Thai around, no question

We used this Chinese takeaway twice, as it was so good the first time. Great value and great portions. Excellent food and free delivery in a 3 mile radius, small charge outside of 3 miles. Was dubious about whether they would deliver to our holiday...

Excellent authentic Thai food conjured up very expertly in a catering van. Do not be fooled by location. Very professional and excellent quality food!

Had to give Kao Hom a go due to the rave reviews. Food was pretty good and very reasonably priced. We had spring rolls, prawn crackers, chicken Penang, battered chicken and egg fried rice.

The food was incredible and portions were a really good size. Genuinely tasted like Thailand. The queuing system was chaotic but the food makes it worth it. Will recommend to everyone I know that is coming this way!

Gaaawdddd daaamnnn this Thai takeaway is miiiighhhtttyyy beautiful. Freshly cooked with a dash of love. Sweet prices and oh so lovely staff. If this is your next meal you won't be upset, it's as fine fine fine as food can get. ❤️🌞🥳

Food was excellent , shame uts only take away .

First class authentic Thai cuisine, cooked by the Thai ladies. All types of food for all tastes. Never been disappointed nor has anyone who I have recommended to go there for food.

If you’re local you know this is the best Thai in Newquay! So many strong delicious flavours, never disappoints and very reasonable! Highly recommended

Really great thai food and super portion sizes always does me more than one meal.

Don't normally leave reviews. Food from Kao Hom was outstanding. You will not be disappointed.

The best beef massaman we have had in a long time.

Very good,authentic and good value for money would highly recommend

Fantastic food...highly recommended!!

Best Thai since being in Thailand. So authentic and very generous portions. Recommend phoning to order as so popular.

Absolutely delicious, I can see why it has very good reviews! Easy to find, lovely and clean, super polite ladies.

First class authentic Thai food. Cheap and easy

The bessssssst Thai you'll find in the South West

Very tasty food. Good value. Great service.

Very nice food and good quality staff

Great Thai street food. first visit this eve and we had amazing spicy beef salad and chicken with chilli and basil. The pork masaman was very good but not outstanding - ideal for the kids. Lots of other amazing looking dishes to try next time.

Food overpriced for the portion size. Chicken dry. Bland. Helpful staff though.

Delicious, well seasoned Thai food. Loved it. Best food in ALL of Newquay.

Recommended by friends whilst we were in Newquay on holiday, it’s a little trailer van in a car park which in the day is car wash!! The food is excellent the ladies are so friendly, recommended you order in advance as the queue and orders...

What more can I say another visit to Newquay and 2 Thai takeaway! Both times excellent thanks to Tuk and her girls

Best Thai I’ve had for the price. Women who cook it very pleasant and the wait was worth it.

So much great taste with good size portions. I would not bother with the spring rolls starter again,all shell no filling

Shack in a car park recommended by some locals. Read online review....went....some of the most authentic Thai take away i ever had!

Great meal. Really enjoyed the flavours. Very good value for money

Last night,after reading a ton of amazing reviews online,my other half and myself decided to try this takeaway. Best decision we ever made! The food was cooked to order so we had to wait for about 20 minutes but it was definitely worth it! We...
