Perfect spot to enjoy a Thai on the beach. Lovely spiced food. Chicken satay was lovely. Spring rolls were really nice too.

Wow what a find. Freshly cooked and tasty Tai food in St Mary's. Was nice to eat outside by the sea. Food was very fresh and tasty but not the cheapest and we needed to wait about 50 mins for it to be cooked - but we'll worth the wait

Restaurant at old town - we decided to eat in and were not disappointed The starters ( satay chicken and spring rolls ) were very fresh and the main courses ( Thai Currys and dish 19 - can’t remember it’s name ) were full of flavour There’s a lovely outside eating area if wanted but we chose to eat in The tables were nicely spaced and it was really lovely to have table water brought without asking as we arrived I noticed that some people had brought their own wine so I am guessing that’s an option if you are not keen on the wine list but I can say that the Sing Thai beer and Rose wine were good

Pom’s take away is excellent and her new restaurant in Old Town is superb. The food is beautifully cooked, well presented and very tasty. A real find. It’s possible to order a takeaway from the restaurant, too. A very friendly welcome and efficient service.

No food for vegetarians/vegans. So I had to go hungry while everyone else in my family got fish and chips, all I wanted was a pad thai

We decided to visit this take away van for a quick supper to be find that about 80% of the items in the menu were not available. We opted for Pad Thai - he had chicken and I had vegetable. The noodles were thick and gloopy with hardly any additions - I counted 8 small pieces of veg with no onions or bean sprouts and the whole dish was tasteless. A completely disappointing experience we will not be repeating.

Absolutely crap, we asked for 2x green king prawn curries and got god knows what. It looked like fish with boiled rice despite asking for egg fried rice and no prawns in sight but green sauce??? Never again.

Superb again. I almost panicked when the listed phone number was out of use and there were no reviews this year. I cautiously peered round the corner but needn't have worried - they were open. My wife had veggie green curry and I had chicken red curry, and both were delightful. One of the nice things about Thai cuisine is that veggies aren't just an afterthought, but mainstream. Incidentally, I've never had grapes in a curry before, but they work really well.

Happened upon this Thai gem while staying in St Mary's. Just yummy! Really tasty food at a reasonable price. Ate it on the seafront with a bottle of fizz and was just an excellent treat! Such a popular little establishment and a great idea! clearly well supported by visitors and locals alike! Great job guys! Keep up the good work and so glad to see so many people supporting your food and service! Thanks for the great feed! Would certainly recommend doing for anyone staying on St Mary's!

I mistakenly thought another menu on the website was for Poms, therefore ordered 1 child's prawn Prawn Pad Thai and 1 child's chicken Pad Thai. It was priced at £3.85 each, with £1 extra for the chicken dish and £2 extra for the prawn dish. Total price being £10.70. My husband checked twice these were child size portions and was told yes! However, when he went to collect and pay he was charged £17. He questioned this and again said are they child size portions? Again he was told yes. I returned to show them the web site price of the lower rate, which he rightly pointed out it wasnt their site, and they only do one size, no child size portions. SO WHY DID HE TELL MY HUSBAND TWICE HE WAS GETTING CHILD SIZE PORTIONS? my husband had 2 prawns in his meal, I had 4 pieces of chicken. It was tasteless and greasy!! These people have no scruples, and do not deserve people's hard earned cash. We will not buy from here again i would rather starve!!!

This was our first meal on St Mary's as part of our week-long holiday. A cute van behind Porthcressa beach with a great menu - curries, noodles and other Thai specialities. We ordered our food and sat by the beach while it was being prepared. Generous portions - I had Pan Thai with duck (noodles, beansprouts, carrots, kale with strips of duck) and it was delicious! I would definitely order from here again. The staff were nice and friendly too.

Our first visit to St Mary’s, Isles of Scilly and our first takeaway of the holiday. Very good well laid out menu with just enough choice. Marvellous how it’s all prepared in the back of a van! Very pleasant and polite and good price. A pity menus aren’t left outside during the daytime so orders can be placed without having to go to the van first. Would recommend for a quick meal without the thrills.

I don’t know how Pom turns out so many delicious dishes in her truck but she does! I have been on the Island for 5 nights and have eaten Thai 4 times! I had the Pad Thai, Panang and Ka Prow (twice). Everything is prepared fresh so expect to wait (not long, usually 20 minutes or so)...but trust me, it is worth the wait plus you can take in the views of the Portcressa Beach while you wait! There is a wide variety of options, for sure your favorite! Enjoy!

Pom provides Thai food seven nights a week from a mobile van. There is a wide choice of meals and we have never been disappointed. It can take 30 minutes to prepare your food so we take advantage of phoning in advance. However, if you have to wait, then a walk along Porthcressa beach is a sheer pleasure.

Me and my boyfriend ordered a dish each (which we shared), extra noodles and a starter to share. The starter of chicken satay was very good but I think there should have been a big more for the price, and an even amount of chicken so it can be easily shared! The sweet and sour white fish was amazing and went well with our spare noodles (it doesn’t come with any rice/noodles). My favorite was the duck pad thai, the noodles with it were amazing and nutty and the duck (especially the fatty pieces) was melt-in-the mouth, the sprinkle of lime tied them together perfectly... I’m already craving more!! The whole meal came to £28, I guess pricy for a takeaway but worth it!!

We have used Pom's Van for several years now and always enjoyed her cooking. There was a new menu this year. I found her two chilli dishes quite hot and haven't yet dared the three chilli ones!

This was just a little van next to the chippy van, so we weren't expecting miracles. We ordered a meal for three, and were told to come back in 25 minutes. We came back and our meal was just being finished then it was off to the beach with our silver foil containers. Boy was it good. The Pad Thai was a proper job, restuarant quality, but the star of the show was the duck in red curry sauce, quite supurb, the Massaman curry can also be quite highly recommended, while our green curry was also on the good side of average. Most unexpected for a takeaway van in a tiny Scillonian town and the culinary highlight of our week on the islands - simply unmissable and great value.

One of a group of food vans parked behind the townhall in the evening. Food is excellent and cooked to order to there is a wait (but they give you a ticket so you can go away to admire Porthcressa Bay or have a quick pint in the pub down the road). My only adverse comment is that the prices are what you would expect to pay in a full service restaurant rather that a takeaway.

When staying on St Mary's we always have at least one evening takeaway from Pom's. This van is situated behind the Town Hall close to Porthcressa Beach. Food is cooked to order, usually taking 20 - 30 minutes - an opportunity to visit one of the nearby pubs. The food is fresh and delicious. We had fish cakes, spring rolls, and duck and chicken main courses. We are always grateful to have access to Thai food on the Isles of Scilly.

Despite living in the area for the best part of 20yrs, I'd never used this Takeaway before as it's a little out of the way. However, I recently found myself close by & thought I'd give it a try and I'm glad I did. Despite it being the Summer Hols & them having numerous orders already on the go, I walked in, placed my order and walked out with my food in under 20mins! And the food was amazing, well cooked, still hot after I got home 30mins later, good portion sizes and the prices were slightly cheaper than our usual takeaway. I'll definitely be back!!

I had a beautiful pot of tea which wasn't badly priced, I also had a cream tea which I had waited all day for but was seriously disappointed when it arrived, the size of the scone was huge but it turned out to be a serious let down I applied the cream and jam but when I bit into it the middle was raw!! I was so upset and disappointed 😞 as I had waited all day. I asked the man if they made them fresh in premises he said no and that they were made in their factory. This is an issue that needs rectifying as raw scones due to the size is nit something to look forward too. Really sad and disappointing after such a long wait to have one. I hope that you manage to somehow rectify this as I had waited so long.
