Smile Thai Cafe & Takeaway in Swindon - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

For Thai food Smile is the place to go in Swindon, whether you eat in or takeaway the food is delicious, great staff always friendly and very well priced. Check Smile out, you won't be disappointed.

Been here a few times and absolutely love the place, the food, the service, the staff are just amazing and I can not rate this place highly enough, the chef knows his stuff and you will seriously not find better Thai food anywhere in this country as good as this.

Fantastic ‘hidden gem’ of a restaurant. Went for the first time last night for a friends birthday, it most definitely will be the first of many visits!!! Fabulous food, atmosphere and staff! A must for ‘foodies’ in and around Swindon.

We have been here before and rated 5. Unfortunately although the service and starters were great this time I have rated it down due to a hygiene issue. As we were finishing our starter one of the chefs came out from the kitchen into the toilet wearing the blue disposable gloves. He used the toilet and came out still wearing the blue gloves. Gross. The gloves should of been removed before using the toilet. This completely put us off our food so we cancelled our main courses. We told the waiting staff and they did apologise but this has put us off going again

Another visit to this little gem for a family birthday and it keeps on getting better and better each time we visit. Everything is cooked fresh and the service is amazing, I'd definitely recommend a visit to the best Thai restaurant in the area by far.

Absolutely the best decision I've made this week. Food was absolutely gorgeous. Ordered the beef pad kaprow, rice, noodles and spring rolls and asked for it thai style hot, the Chef understood the assignment lol. Really well made food. Lovely and fresh and served with a smile, As you would expect with the Name. I even ordered a takeaway for my trip home first thing. I will definitely go again when working in the area.

Such a lovely place - small and friendly with the most delicious food, beautifully presented. We had the somtam salad, pad Thai with duck, mixed starters and a couple of other dishes I can’t remember! We went for Thai heat and the chili was spot on. Can’t fault this place.

We visited here again last night for dinner and can not fault the place in any way at all The food and service was just fantastic and tasted so fresh and amazing. In my opinion, this is by far the best Thai restaurant you will find anywhere.

A fabulous family run restaurant. The food is amazing and very consistent. We have started coming regularly for the set lunch menu and it has always been amazing quality. The price is great value too. We took my mum and dad and they are now hooked too. Would highly recommend and we are looking forward to coming one evening to try the a la carte menu. Thanks for your hospitality and high standards.

10 of us went to Smile last night and everything was just amazing, the food and service was just top notch and absolutely faultless. I've been before and it's always been good, but last night was another level of excellence. And to top it all off, there is a beer tower for those that like a cold beer.

We pre booked this place based on reviews we had seen prior to visiting Swindon. We opted for Satay and prawn tempura starters, satay not really that good but the tempura was excellent. For mains we had a large jasmine rice with a green curry and a massaman. Both curries were fabulous but the massaman really was exceptional. It's a surprise finding this place on a residential street just out of town but we're so glad we did. Definitely recommend eating here if you're in the area

Lovely little space and equally good staff. Generally the food is pretty good, however tonight was not the case. I ordered some seaweed which I love, and could happily eat buckets full. Incredibly disappointed to discover that the advertised seaweed on the menu was in fact deep fried cabbage, which smelt like cabbage and was dripping in oil. Pretty disgusting! Please don’t put ‘seaweed' on the menu when it's not seaweed. Write, ‘fried cabbage’. Trading standards and all that! For my main I ordered Noodle Kee Mao, good value for £9.50 and a good sized portion at that. The noodle dish was Stir-fried flat rice noodles with egg, chilli, bamboo shoot & basil. Big mistake for me. I should have realised that chilli being the second ingredient listed, meant that this was going to be a very hot dish, and way too hot for me. This wasn’t the fault of the restaurant by the way. I should have paid more attention when ordering. As it turned out my mouth was so painful that I couldn’t eat any more, so beware when selecting a dish with chilli. The amount of chilli can be reduced or completely omitted if you ask for it. Disappointing meal but usually the food here is very good.

Lovely hot food, really nice. Staff are friendly as well and welcome you. Quite difficult to fault in all honesty. Only 4 stars as service was on the slow side last time I went but usually its better.

Super little place very friendly really amazing authentic food prices quite reasonable and beautifully presented, . Even sold a selection of their sauces frozen to take away to do your own curries. Asked how they made their milky green tea and the chef came out to show us and explain the recipe. 100% will be back soon!

Always freshly cooked and tasty. Delivery very good. Food quality to value for money good. This is by far the best thai in Swindon. Staff friendly.

Went last night for the first time!! Wow what a find. Food was excellent, came out really quickly . Staff lovely,helpful and friendly. If ever we're back in Swindon this is where we'll go. Thank you for a lovely evening.. .

It has been a while since we have been but WOW!! The food and service were excellent. We highly recommend Smile Thai. Check it out!

This is a very small restaurant, it is cosy, inviting and the staff are extremely friendly and the food arrives punctually and is beautifully prepared and extremely tasty. We were surprised to be able to book a table at relatively short notice and loved every minute of it

Another amazing meal here and a couple of new things tried, both were absolutely amazing and absolutely faultless, along with the faultless service. I had the jumbo prawns in a curry sauce and it's one of the best things I've eaten in a very long time.

We visited last night for my sons 22nd birthday as this is where he wanted to go, and the service, atmosphere and food was out of this world, it was just so unbelievably good again. I've been here a few times, but in my opinion...

The food here was amazing and the service great. We went on a cold evening and it was very chilly in here. We were sat next to the radiator but it wasn't on. They did have a blow heater on but with the door being...

This place is small but don’t let this put you off a visit. We came here with friends and fellow Harley Davidson Riders for a Pre Christmas party. The food was absolutely amazing. All the food that came out looked and tasted awesome. For such...

辛くあるべき料理はキチンと辛く、本国に近い味。飲み物を持ち込んだからなのか、店員の応対は店名と反して笑顔が無かった。でも...

We visited here again and came with some family who ha never had Thai food before, so thought we would treat them. The absolutely loved the food and everything about this place, the food and service is so good, and the whole experience was amazing.

Wonderful meal with friends. Good excellent, atmosphere lovely and the staff attentive and polite. Highly recommended.

We haven't been here for a while and booked in this evening for dinner. The service was amazing as always, the food came out really quickly and it was just so good, it was so so tasty and there is absolutely nothing to fault this...

First timers but will definitely be eating from here again. Enjoyed the massaman curry as a takeaway - food was ready when I arrived, still hot, and tasted great. Thank you! Look forward to eating with you again soon

Visited Smile with a friend after a few attempts at booking as it’s a small venue and a popular place. This time they managed to fit us in early which was great. Generous portions. The vegetable tempura starter was easily enough for 2 with a...

Simply amazing Thai food with 5 star service to match. The food is just fantastic and I can't fault any single part of it, it's just so good.

The food, the service, just everything about this place is absolutely 5 stars. The chef cooks such tasty Thai food, words can't begin to explain how good it is. How this place isn't number 1 restaurant in the UK is beyond me. If you haven't...

Yet another fabulous takeaway from Smile Thai Cafe, eating our way through the menu and never disappointed, thank you so much.

The best Thai food I have ever eaten, fantastic flavours, good size portions as well. Service was friendly and attentive, it’s also reasonably priced.

Absolutely faultless food and service again, and I would say that you will not find food as good as this anywhere. 10 / 10 from me.

A last minute booking, from out of town but very well travelled and what a find! The service, food and even atmosphere were first class - but what stole the show - the simply wonderful food. Freshly cooked and prepared, superb spices and first class...

On recommendation from some friends we tried Smile for the first time tonight. Easy to order on line and delivery was on time and that was the good bit. We had a portion of dumplings to share which was a small portion of 4 for...

not just the best thai in Swindon but genuinely the best place to eat out, BYOB too is a great touch

Disappointing experience. The menu is not clear at all, when you order stir fried thinking it would be stir fried noodles but no it is just a tiny bit of sauce in a tiny box. At least specify that it does not come with noodles...

I could seriously eat Ecks food every night of the week. Smile has to be the best Thai takeaway in town by a country mile. This food seriously makes you SMILE 😃 Don’t wait till Friday folks. Treat yourselves to Thai Tuesdays.. or weds or...

Amazing takeaway from Smile. The flavours were incredible and the dim sum, ribs and massaman were the stars of the show. Will definitely order again. Thank you!

Best Thai food of my whole life! Dim sum and veg tempura particularly special, absolutely exceptional cooking.

We have been before, but with everything going on its been a while since we have been able to visit. The food is just amazing in every possible way, so tasty and everything tastes freshly cooked, it's just beyond words. You simply have to try...

After getting fed up trying to find somewhere to park in Old Town, I gave up and started heading back to the hotel and found this place by accident, small and offering takeaway only, There is a small restaurant for when things get back to...

I think the title covers my thoughts. :-) If you are unsure what to order, use the heat grade, pick your favorite meat / veg and so on and just go for anything that fits in those slots! :-) There is nothing on this menu...

We looked on Trip Advisor, for the best food near the Swindon Hilton Doubletree, and this came up! We ordered online with no problems at all, and the food was ready swiftly for collection! Make sure you go into the Smile Thai, and not the...

Best Thai food in Swindon, and brilliant service. I love their Tom yum soup and the red curry, and the BYOB is always a joy!

Always always fantastic food at Smile Thai Cafe. Really friendly service. The whole experience is a pleasure.

Consistently delicious food, packed with flavour and heat and well priced for portion size. Great hosts and £1 for BYOB is a another good feature. Would recommend both the special fried rice and phanaeng curry if you're a hungry boy (or girl) like me.

Ordered a takeaway. Tom yum soup tasted like Thailand. Loved every mouthful. Amazing quality. You have a new customer

Been to this place a couple of times and the food is the best Thai food I have ever tasted. The food is all freshly cooked and so so tasty. The service is great and remember you have to take your own alcoholic drinks.

The food is always exceptional, service and atmosphere fantastic, for the quality of the food, the prices are great value, 1st choice always, highly recommend this restaurant if you want a great Thai food experience.

We had our first takeaway from Smiles Thai restaurant. We had heard good reviews on trip advisor and wow what a lovely first experience and it wont be the last. We had a penang curry jungle curry and a stir fry between us . The meal was absolutely gorgeous. The jungle curry was lovely and spicy and the penang curry my wife had was so tasty. If you like Thai food this is the place to tryThankyou for lovely meal see you again soon

The food is exceptional, to the point we haven't ordered from anywhere else for a long time. Service is excellent, very friendly staff, and great value for money. If you’ve yet to try food from here, don’t hesitate.

10 out of 10! Great value for money, friendly staff, nice atmosphere and awesome food... Highly recommend!

I have been here over 20 times in the last 12 months, sometimes booked ahead, mostly called in at lunchtimes on the off chance there would be room for us, I can say it’s as authentic as any food I had when I visited Thailand, the chef is super fast, and the food super fresh and very tasty, the service has been friendly and helpful every single time. I must also add they are completely happy for you to take any drink you like with you (we normally take a bottle of Prosecco and a few bottles of beer) for a £1.50 per person corkage charge. Lastly the prices are reasonable.

A friend introduced me to this tiny Thai family Restaurant and take-away where you can take your own wine for corkage and which delivers to your home in the evening. The furniture and decor are basic and charming whilst the food and service are superb.It reminded me of my student days in terms of relaxation and I shall definitely return!

We were a bit disappointing as we only visited about a month ago and the meal was fantastic. This time the satay chicken was really dry, the sticky rice was gloopy, the pad thai was sticky/tasteless and the green curry was watery. Perhaps we just caught it on a bad night (Friday) or with different chef(s).

Another great meal, I've been slowly working my way through the menu and never disappointed, even the Spring rolls which I don't normally like are great here.

Myself and the family decided to visit here again, and this was because the food was amazing the last time we were here.

Popped into Smile tonight for a Green Thai Chicken curry and very disappointed at amount and the poor quality of chicken in the curry. I doubt whether there was more than an ounce of chicken and what vegetables there were were stewed. Sauce tasted good but nothing special but i had hoped for something more substantial. I now feel obliged to take my custom elsewhere.

Best place for Thai food! Lovely staff, food is amazing and the service is quick! What more do you want from a restaurant, will be back again for sure

Great food, simple surroundings, fair pricing. Make sure you book or you won’t get in. But not when we want to go!

'Smile' was recommended to us by some friends and it didn't disappoint. All four of us had different meals and we all thoroughly enjoyed every minute. We have been to the Far East many times and I can verify this restaurant in the real deal. It's quite small and nothing fancy, it's all about the the food!! I'd also have to add that the service was friendly and excellent.

SMILE is mainly a takeaway but they do have seating for probably around 20 or so customers? We ate in, and the atmosphere is lovey in here, walking distance from town. The small team of staff are pleasant and friendly and the food....well - it is just amazing! We were recommended Smile, and have returned again since.

best ever. consistently very good food. the seabass alone is worth a visit. the price point is good. won't break the bank. there is really no parking so best to walk ( perhaps a good option after consuming all that yumminess!!)

We didn't expect discover such lovely restaurant, is very small, waited for while to get table, but it was worthy, Amazing food and excellent service always with a big smile, highly recommended!

Been so many times while I have been working away over last 18 months - food is absolute heaven. We travelled around Thailand last year and this restaurant took us back there...

Great tasting authentic Thai food, probably the best Ivectasted outside Thailand. The lunchtime set menu for £7.50 represents fabulous value.

Ordered a takeaway to eat with father-in-law as he is stuck in a care home, he likes to try quality food from all over the world and lived in Asia for a number of years. He was very impressed by the different flavours in one mouthful from the dishes. Very authentic. Our eyes did water at the spiciness of the jungle curry, it is HotHot.

5 of us visited on late notice to the small but welcoming restaurant. Was met by a smiling lady who was more than happy to accommodate us. The menu is really good value for money and the food that came was really tasty but clean, unlike a lot of takeaways in Swindon. Will be back. Was stuffed and only cost a tenner with a drink !

This is the best Thai food restaurant in Swindon as I have tasted food from all Thai restaurant. The flavours of the food is jus wow. Takes you back to Thailand if you ever been there. Most Thai restaurant have the same basic taste but the dishes served here are just too tasty and the aroma is yummy. I have recommended many of my friends to try the food and none of them have said they haven’t enjoyed the food, in fact they are now regular customers. Please see the pictures of food. Thanks chef for the amazing food.

Super little Thai Cafe with reasonably priced food, good, but not excessive portions, and packed full of flavour! Small but perfectly formed. We went for an after work meal as a group of eight and with a couple of hours notice, they fitted us in and were swift to serve us. Steady stream of families, couples, lone diners and groups passing through. Would definitely go again.

This small restaurant just off the town centre is a hidden gem. The food is fantastic and you can bring your own alcoholic drink with a corkage of £1.50 per person. They do a great lunchtime deal for £7.50 which includes a small starter, main course and soft drink and the main course is quite filling.

Tucked away on Eastcott Hill, this restaurant provided an excellent evening for our party (of 4). Inside there are not many tables, so booking in advance is highly recommended. Although seating is simple, it is comfortable and adds to the uniqueness of the place. The menu has plenty of choice for all diners (including lots of vegetarian and gluten free options) and is reasonably priced too. The Prawn Penang Curry I had was exquisite; it was flavoursome and had a lovely blend of spices.

We’re regular customers at Smile Cafe and the food and service has never faltered. Nothing is bland, and everything is well seasoned; it is truly authentic Thai cooking.

Went this evening for a friends birthday and we had such a wonderful evening. The food was out of this world and everyone enjoyed it. It looked a bit random from the location but is totally worth a visit. Will be returning again

I have been here on many occasions and it continues to improve. Situated a few minutes walk from the main eateries in Old Town this is a little gem. Always worth booking as it is very small.

Went to Smile for our wedding anniversary, partly because we spent our honeymoon in Thailand and love Thai food.

Wow. Loved the food here . So fresh and beautifully cooked. The service was efficient and friendly and the food was reasonably priced. They have a small collection of beer and wine but you can bring your own for a fee of 1.50 per person. Will most definitely return

Wonderfully fresh food and very friendly staff...small restaurant is super cosy and you feel like you've been let in on a secret.

Excellent food, really welcoming and great service. Great vegetarian and gluten free menu also Byob.

Our first visit to this jewel of a find. The service and the food is fantastic! Very authentic and we will certainly be coming again!

A Thai restaurant in Swindon? You can get bland UK Thai food anywhere or you can get the authentic stuff. This is more authentic than any other THai restaurant in the town; it's also friendly, efficient, allows you to bring your own booze, and not expensive. No wonder it's full - only 18 places and everyone smiling!

Went here on Friday 17th May at 6pm and was surprised that it was as busy as it was so early.

Visited at this little restaurant last night with a group of friends. The service was excellent, the food delicious and the staff were extremely kind. They went out of their way to help us celebrate a 50th birthday. Thank you so much, we had a lovely evening. I would recommend booking beforehand.

Ordered 2 take aways for collection from this restaurant and the food has been superb. Only a small place about 30 covers max but I didn’t eat in the restaurant. The food took me straight back to Thailand it was authentic and just how I remembered it in thailand. Would definitely recommend this restaurant

I’ve been to Smile a few times now and every time the food has been outstanding- plus the service is both excellent and very friendly. I’d suggest booking a table for large groups as the restaurant is small but you won’t regret it - really authentic Thai food cooked to perfection!

Bank holiday Monday had a show on at the Wyvern after and wanted to give the place a try. The food was very good indeed. Always been keen on thai food and this is now my favorite Thai in Swindon. I can see my partner and I using this place as a pre show dinner either at Wyvern or Cinema. Only complaint was service was kaotic at the start due to lack of staff, but settled down once the place emptied out a bit.

I booked for Saturday and when we arrived was told I booked for Friday. My wife listened to my booking call and confirmed Saturday. I also repeated the 830 Saturday booking on the phone. So not impressed at this mess up. Went to Los Gatos which was great!

Decided to have a family meal here based on a friends recommendation. Turned out to be one of my Uncle’s favourite places. The place is small yet does not feel cramped at all.

Fabulous food great service friendly staff!! A experience of arthritic Thai cooking!! A must visit place😆😆

Visited this place a few times now over the last year. Each time the food has been brilliant. A great number of dishes to choose from and I've never been disappointed with anything I have eaten, the same can be said of everyone I have taken here too. The hosts are lovely and the prices are all very reasonable. Will definitely be coming back again and again!

Slightly out of the town centre, this Thai cafe has a warm and comfortable ambience, and it serves really good food. The menu offers a good choice without feeling like a telephone directory. We have been there a few times, and the food has always been very good. The wine list is quite small, but it's good enough for most people and I have always liked whatever I have chosen. For a very modest corkage charge, you can bring your own wine.

Really nice and friendly little place with great food and great service. Well worth a visit in my opinion the thia food in Swindon

We visited this lovely cafe this afternoon for the £7.50 lunch and found that the food keeps getting better and better.

My wife and I were visiting family in Swindon and it was recommended we try Smile Thai - We were not disappointed at all. I had the hottest soup I’ve ever eaten and loved it! Lots of dishes sampled and enjoyed. Recommend booking as there are limited seats in this cozy place...

Superb flavours, accommodating & friendly people & will definitely be returning again. The Tom yum soup was incredible & when we asked for more chillies, it wasn’t a problem at all so thank you guys!

What a fantastic place. Visited here with a few friends, and thoroughly enjoyed the cuisine and the atmosphere.

I am a food whore with a passion for Thailand and Thai food.....no need for a lengthy review, the food absolutely nails authenticity....The chef owner is Thai and from Bangkok ....he knows his Tom Yum from his Kway Teow....Highly recommend, utterly relaxed atmosphere, bring your own wine, lovely staff always 5* service and food - eaten here many times (yesterday was last time :)

I was here with my friend 1 week before. The place is small but tidy. Ordered Soup which had too much of soya sauce which made the soup having a weird smell. The starter was good and crispy. For main course, we had ordered red curry. The main course was good but had extra bit of pineapple due to which a lot of different taste could be felt in one dish... spicy, sweet and tangy. Overall experience was mixed. I have tasted Thai food across many places in world I can say it was not the best of the taste but not worst also.

13 of us had a meal at this Thai last night. We ordered nearly everything on the menu and the flavours and textures were fabulous. The ribs melted in the mouth, the tempura veg and prawns deliciously light and we loved the crispy squid and beef. The spicy Thai soup was very authentic , hot , sweet and sour as it should be. Our mains were equally impressive and the crispy sea bass was a triumph. It’s also a bring your own so we did ! They do sell some wine by the bottle.
