Rin's Thai Kitchen in Charnwood

Enjoyed our meal, apart from the sticky rice, which came out still in the microwave bag? It was not good & we had to send it back. The egg fried rice which came out looked fresh & was much better. Very expensive meal for what it is.

The number of mains you order has to be bigger than number of people, otherwise, the owner won’t accept your order. 四个人点三份主食，服务员不同意，一定要我们点四份，你可以建议但不能强制 curry: very watery, beef not stewed longer enough, boiled whole tomatos???? the worst curry I’ve ever had in my life. 这么水的咖喱，从来没吃过，牛肉居然是牛肉片，没有炖软，里面居然有整个煮的小番茄，这简直是在侮辱咖喱，侮辱泰餐 rice noodle: bland, we ask for soy sauce, the owner wanted to charge. Trust me, instant noodle is better. 米粉汤没味儿，淡如君子之交，远不如方便面

Our first visit to Rin’s and we’ll definitely be returning. Excellent, authentic Thai food. Exceptional, friendly service. Great atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Good service, poor food, expensive for what you get. Lacking in the atmosphere. Sorry to say, this was the worst thai restaurant we have visited. Glad we gave it a try, but we won't be returning.

A group of 4 attended Rin's for an evening meal. I have to say we were all extremely disappointed with the quality, small portions and the lack of atmosphere. For a Friday evening, the restaurant was extremely sparse of guests, therefore, there was no atmosphere. Certainly not good value. We left hungry and made a sandwich on our return home. We definitely will not be returning.

We visited this restaurant on a Thursday evening without reservation. The waiter was friendly and interesting with local Thai knowledge both in terms of food and country due to personal experience. Both our meals were tasty. We can't compare as we don't often eat Thai food. Menu was extensive. I would highly recommend.

I’ve never been here before, however I was delighted with my discovery. The venue is immaculate and authentic. The staff were really friendly and attentive and allowed me to make adjustments to my order. The food was the best Thai food I have had before either in the UK or Europe. The chicken satay was full of flavour as was the yellow chicken curry and egg friend rice. The price was really affordable and I loved my time here. I would love to return if I’m ever in Loughborough again. Many thanks.

I'll be honest I chose this place simply because I was having a cheap pint in Wetherspoon and I noticed it over the road. The owners are very friendly and welcoming, and after discussing my love for spicy food I went for the Pad Graprao with beef, washed down with a couple of icy cold beers. The food was beautifully cooked with lovely sticky rice, but next time I'd definitely increase the heat level a bit more.

A lovely evening had at Rin’s. The food was super tasty and everything was homemade including the Thai crackers ! The service was excellent also !

I’ve dined in Rin’s on many occasions over the last 2 years when visiting Loughborough from Ireland both solo and with family. There is always a warm welcome from Maurice, Rin and staff. Their customer focused approach is apparent from the first visit where they establish if any allergies exist and they always enquire about preferences (spicy … not too spicy…). There is a great choice of dishes for every course and the food is delicious or as Maurice claims “yummy” ! They have really good wines also and the engagement with you at the table as they take orders and serve your food makes you feel truly appreciated - I even got a certain table each time when dining solo !! If I have reason to visit Loughborough again it will be top of my list!! Thank you for some amazing meals and I’ll recommend Rin’s Thai Kitchen to anyone else who may be in town!

I had a penang, absolutely delicious. Friendly, clean, and attractive place to eat. Quiet when I went, which was nice after a hectic day of travel. If I'm ever back in Loughborough, I'll be eating here.

We went to this Restaurant with a group of friends. Overall the meal was simply excellent with a good choice of Veg dishes. The staff were attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The only constructive feedback I would give is that the speed of service could be improved. Having waited a considerable time for the Starters we only had 15 minutes to order the Mains.

Lovely food today, staff were so helpful and passionate about their food :0) Good value for money and didnt have to wait long for food to arrive.

Fantastic food and great service. The menu has lots of choice and the ingredients is very fresh. Best place to eat in Loughborough

On my first visit I was initially a bit puzzled that there were few vegetarian options on the menu. When I asked I was presented with a full vegetarian menu which I was delighted by and am looking forward to working my way through on my forth coming trips to Loughborough! This menu is effectively vegan friendly (egg in some noodle dishes). All my choices so far have been very tasty and beautifully presented. Rin remembered what I previously ordered and was very helpful suggested different dishes which I might not have otherwise tried. Looking forward to my next visit.

Good service. Mediocre food, The Basin price levels but not comparable. We spent £5 on prawn crackers. We received about 10 in a shallow dish with one cheap sweet chilli dip. Felt a bit of a rip off. The curries were tasty but watery - I have no idea if this is authentic so won't comment, just know it's different to others, which I personally prefer. we had the sharing starter which came with cheap spring rolls and also a parcel which was meant to have prawns but just had vegetables. Food is OK, really tasty in places but a let down in others and at this price point isn't justified £88 (£10tip) for two was pretty expensive for the quality.

Having spent the day at our daughter’s graduation, we wanted a cosy and pleasant place to eat dinner and Rin’s Thai Kitchen turned out to be that place. Delicious food, helpful and welcoming staff; all made for a lovely evening.

Can’t understand the negative reviews here,is it the same person writing under a pseudonym. We have eaten at the oriental in Bangkok, the most prestigious restaurant in Thailand. Whilst not saying that this is that standard, without doubt this is serving delicious food by an accomplished chef. The service is attentive and welcoming. You can always engage with the staff and receive good advice.

A delightful dinner. I went for fried squid, followed by the lap gai spicy chicken salad while my partner went for seabass with a spicy mango salad. Cooked beautifully and very well presented. Rin and Maurice are charming hosts and I wholeheartedly recommend their restaurant. We will be back

Me and my dad visited this restaurant last night, it was a late birthday treat so we wanted to try as my dad loves Thai food. Seeing the prices we were very shocked but we have no problems paying abit more for really tasty food! I do feel like for the quantity of food we was given it was over priced but the food was very tasty!! The starter was delicious but again not enough. We did both leave hungry which is a massive shame but the staff were very lovely and smiling. I don't agree with the reviews stating the staff were rude or gossiping. I imagine if anyone is complaining or disagreeing with staff then in that situation, staff have every right to discuss it between themselves. I do think if I was to have any suggestions it would be bigger portions, Especially with the mix starter for 2. And also include rice in the price with the curry dishes as rice is very cheap to cook and buy so to add £4 for a little plate ontop of the price for the curry is abit excesive in my opinion. The restaurant was beautiful and you can tell the staff are nice people. :) Me and my dad wish you nothing but success and hope this review is helpful. Xx

Once we were there it was a rollercoaster of Amazing food and service. When we got the food, it was presented very well. The taste was very good, and overall it was any amazing experience, If you want a extravagant place to go for food, this is the place to go!

I came with a friend for a bite to eat and chat, her Mum was very ill with cancer and wanted to take her mind off things. Wish we hadn't bothered coming here, we wanted a nice atmosphere but it was lacking. My friend ordered...

The service is warm and attentive. The menu has plenty of options for meat, fish, and vegetarians. Nice seating lay-out and not too cramped. The food is fine. The bill on the pricey side compared to other local restaurants of same stamp.

This Thai restaurant is great! Especially I am Thai people, this taste make me feel like I’m home. Atmosphere is cozy and relax. Moreover, the staff is also really friendly. They know what they’re doing and making the customers happy as their main priority. Food...

Really unpleasant dinner. The only other table in here had a fight with the staff. Staff were gossiping about the customers after they left. Set the tone for the rest of our meal. Waitress got our drinks order wrong which happens, but she kissed her...

Best thia food ever! I would say that is a over reaction but when i tried their green thia curry, I knew that would be the best thia curry ever

Looks good from the out side .. but food is below average very salty . My mouth feels that I’ve just swam the English Channel

I have been here so many times. This place is one of the most wonderful Thai restaurant with authentic taste in Loughborough. The staff and owner here are also welcomed. The restaurant also has a very nice atmosphere with local Thai music, serving a very...

Well what can I say... avoid this place at all costs, there is a tesco over the road, save yourself a good dollar and buy a microwave meal from there.

We came here last night for a family meal. Well what can I say, we ordered a red curry stir fry, when it came out we was shocked how small the portion was, I have seen bigger starters. I asked the waiter if that was...

This is one of the best Thai restaurants I've been to. The welcome from the owners makes you feel at home straight away, their enthusiasm and knowledge about their ingredients is a delight! The food is so fresh, fragrant and authentic, we loved every dish...

The food was absolutely delicious!! The Thai curry and spring roll starter was heavenly!! The owner & lady who served the food were very endearing and welcoming. My only ‘criticism’ is that I found the portion of the starter very small for £8 and found...

Being coming to this restaurant since before 2016 - think since then has changed owners. Do not know why they open for Saturday afternoon lunch as soon as arrived we received the attitude of not wanting us there, then the food was to match. Ordered...

High quality authentic Thai food at a competitive price. Sincerely great food and great ambience hence highly recommended as also a family owned and run business with two of the friendliest and professional hosts you will find.

Mixed starters were piping hot and delicious. The Green Thai chicken curry was beautifully spiced, the crispy belly pork will become a new favourite, and the prawn pad thai with omelette was delightful. A side dish of fried rice completed the main course. We finished...

Excellent, authentic tasting food and friendly service from the staff and owners. Will definitely visit again next time I’m in Loughborough.

Like many people in Loughborough we have watched this restaurant with interest since Thai Grand disappeared. Hubby loves Thai food but I have never been particularly keen - until now. Amazing food, lovely service and now owned by a lovely couple who are really interested...

Amazing food and amazing service! The staff were so lovely and made my birthday so special. Can’t wait to come here again

Visited Rin’s Thai Kitchen as a Mother’s Day treat. The food was of an excellent quality, fresh fish, large chunks of tender beef and unique desserts. We enjoyed the starter platter, squid rings and Thai fish cakes to begin with. Followed by Beef yellow curry,...
