Strand Cafe in Hounslow

The food is really goo. The owner is very thoughtful and kind serving everyone with gentle smalling on face. I became a regular so good this place is.

Great welcome, delicious fresh food. Always a lovely evening.

Had breakfast here. Amazing. So went to Kew for day and came back for dinner. Flavours amazing and waitress remembered all of a complex order without writing anything down both times. Food was great for a 9 year old had mild noodles. Adults spicy duck. Food awesome.

This was a great find for a casual dinner after visiting Kew near by. Food is great. Tried satay, vegetable spring rolls, spicy noodles, red curry and salmon. Everything outstanding. A great small, charming place with friendly and busy staff. Making a reservation is recommended.

The quaint atmosphere, with cozy decor immediately makes you feel at home. The highlight for me has to be the Lamb Shank Masamun Curry. The lamb is tender and flavourful. What truly sets the Restaurant apart is the service. The staff are not only quick and efficient but also incredibly friendly and humorous. Their light-hearted banter and genuine smiles add a personal touch to the dining experience, making it even more enjoyable.

Great Thai food and good service

What a shame to visit this lovely place this late! Have been living around the neighborhood for a year! Love the first sight of the interior and the wonderful location of the restaurant; right by the bank Foods are absolutely stunning and their customers seem to be very local; I had a char kway teow lunch set, comes with a 3.5p soft drink. Love the chewy texture of the stirred fried kway teow, the seasoning was awesome with authentic spicy flavor. Service was great; well deserved the high rate; highly recommend to visit

One of our absolute favourite places to have a coffee in a morning, and a meal on an evening. Staff all friendly, get the basics right, and all the fine details too to make it a pleasant and lovely experience. The food is the best in the area and all great prices! We keep coming back.

Great atmosphere and decor, the service was friendly and it was the best green curry I've had in the UK

So my friend had come before and it’s rather a quaint charming place. We sat in a corner and enjoyed the cosy vibe. The food was good and I would rate it 4.5. I would have liked the curry dish to be served hotter (in temp) and for there to have been more egg in the fried rice. But both our curries were very generous with duck and tofu/vegetables respectively. Service was friendly, welcoming and relaxed. We had our tea pot topped up with fresh hot water without being asked twice and made to feel we could take as much time as we wanted to enjoy our meal.

Amazing Thai food at a little and very cute place. The service was super fast and loved their food

Lovely Thai place off the riverside path near Kew. One of the best green curries I've had with a perfect balance of flavours. Very quaint place with nice ambience and service.

i go out with a walking team, around London and have been to this cafe three times, friendly staff,came back to the strand and the restaurant is still the same standard, befor covid and now 2024,im the person in the green shirt 👕 😀 👍

Fantastic breakfast. Great produce cooked well. Highly recommend

Best Thai green curry I’ve had since my honey moon in Thailand 10 years ago. Perfect balance of spice, sweetness and saltiness. Great service and good price. I can’t wait to try the other dishes out. Perfect food

Delicious food and a nice place, I loved it!

Decent pad Thai in a cosy location by the river. The tempura starter as part of the lunch menu was super good. Definitely pop in for lunch if you’re feeling like Thai food.

Excellent food, great service and friendly staff! Space outdoors too. Would recommend. Prices were reasonable and good choice

Amazing food, all day breakfasts, brunch’s and beautifully presented. A pretty little cafe with wonderful staff and reasonably priced. Fabulous Thai for in the evening and lots of things to choose from at lunch. Extensive menu!! Thoroughly recommend.

Perfect place to be and eat and enjoy!

Wandered down for Breakfast along the river. Great service, good English breakfast including the veggie option and good coffee

Great full English breakfast - definitely worth a visit!

A wonderful local restaurant that myself and my friends and family go to all the time. Food is amazing, staff are wonderful and can't do enough for you. I recommended the Chicken friend rice. You won't be disappointed.

Brilliant service, exceptional food, lovely atmosphere. 100% recommend

Such a lovely quirky place , food is amazing, service was great. Prices are amazing and very reasonable. Will definitely be visiting again.

Had a pleasant Wednesday dinner at the restaurant. The food was amazing and the staff very friendly and lovely. Booked a table an hour in advance, which was a good call, as at 8pm the place was almost full. Despite being so busy, the food was prepared very fast and everything tasted amazing! I’ve been to Thailand few times, snd can assure the taste was very authentic. Unfortunately I was too fool for a dessert, but I’m definitely coming visiting the restaurant again.

Visit for lunch with work a lot, and always have a lovely experience. Great food, attentive and friendly service - never anything to complain about! Lots of veggie options as well.

What a little gem . Staying over in Brentford for the night stumbled across this fantastic resteraunt. It was a Monday night late on place was busy but very accomodating the lady waitress was fantastic the food unbelievable so many different tastes and flavours If we are ever in the area again we will most certainly pay them a visit Thanks again

not impressed, the place is unlit, littered with rubbish outside, no one comes to serve outside tables. Food, if it ever arrives is mediocre, service is unsmiling, poor.

Delicious breakfasts, excellent service!

It is a beautiful little family-run cafe. We have been visiting it for years. When we want something special, we go there. It gives a vibe of community. People come in and are greeted like family. This morning, we cycled there for breakfast. The place hasn't changed since we went there for the first time in 2012, and it gives a rustic vintage sense. Old but well-kept, it serves traditional and authentic Thai foods. The restrooms are on the top floor, and I have to give credit that for such a small place, they have female and male toilets and beautifully decorated

A diamond of a Thai cafe found on Kew Green. Absolutely amazing food, ambience, service just like the owner Hossein. The perfect chef / waiter / and all round owner.

What a truly delightful find! We had visited the nearby Museum of Water and Steam and wanted an alternative to the usual Sunday Pub Lunch. This comfortable and friendly gem of a venue delivered beyond expectations. Snacks a-plenty and some mouth-watering traditional Thai fare too, all very reasonably priced. We were made very welcome and noticed that the other diners were nearly all regulars. A Sunday New Year's Eve and still plenty of footfall. I'll not try to sketch the warm ambiance but recommend you pop in to experience it yourself.

We had a wonderful breakfast here on New Year's Day. The food was lovely, the café was cosy and comfortable, and above all the service was excellent, making us feel very welcome and looked after.

Delicious Thai food near Kew Bridge with flower decorations.

Lovely food. Perfect hosts. Reasonable prices. No faults at this restaurant at all.

Wonderful small Thai restaurant, always welcoming with authentic cuisine. The tables can be a Little tight but adds to the atmosphere home atmosphere

A gem of a place with delicious food. The owner and staff are very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend it. Thank you Hossein From Niki & Dara

Great little place for breakfast/lunch

This restaurant is a little gem in the area! The food is delicious with an amazing choice of dishes. The service and hospitality is brilliant and we are always made to feel very welcome. Highly recommended

Absolutely fantastic breakfast and wonderful staff. The lady at the front was welcoming and friendly and encouraged a lovely atmosphere.

Good food at decent prices in a comfortable environment. Most enjoyable Birthday experience. Thank you

Wir waren zum Frühstück und Abendessen da. Die Besitzerin ist ausgesprochen freundlich! Wir haben uns kurz über unseren Urlaub in London und über Ihren Herkuftsort in Thailand unterhalten, weil wir dort auch schon im Urlaub waren. Wirklich eine nette Frau! Das Essen war auch super, weswegen wir 2 mal da waren. Es ist ein netter kleiner Laden, mit etwas viel Dekor aber alles in allem war es super und ist einen Besuch wert!

Visited last week after having driven from Reading to meet up for lunch with friends. I was made to feel welcome from waitress Knee, Really friendly. Foods were acceptable and reasonable prices but our foods was not served at the same time eventhough there were only few tables in place. But still want to come back as Padthai was delicious.

Came here loads of time! The service always good here! I’m happy with see Nee here, she’s so nice!!!

Very delicious thai food with staff whi is always pleasant to talk. Very welcoming.

Lovely family restaurant, we had a English breakfast and cappuccino. Gas fun with the owner. Very warm and friendly staff.

Great venue great food breakfast or Thai very friendly customer focused highly recommend this cafe/restaraunt.

Lovely family run cafe .loved the breakfast and friendly owner

맛있어요. 런던에서 먹어본 태국음식중 최고였어요. 다음에 또 올께요.

One of the best Thai food dinners we’ve had!! Very fresh and delicious. The service was great and such a beautiful outdoor patio!! Amazing dinner thank you so much!! 🙏

Good food. Seem to be the unfortunate one with cold eggs. Would certainly eat there again

Really good food and good value for money

Food was fresh and nice to eat. However, we did not feel as pleasant about the service and etiquette of the staff. As soon we walked in, the waiter piped up saying "we make Thai food here" in a very warning tone. Afterwards, she would very rudely address us and constantly frown at my family. After we spent about 7 minutes deciding what to eat, she decided to tell us that she had "been waiting for (us) to order" in a very disgruntled manner. This attitude continued with the way dishes were served and such. Overall we felt like we were not wanted there. I'm not sure where this was all coming from. Maybe the ones serving us had some preconceived notions about us, maybe they didn't like that we came in for lunch at 4PM or maybe it was just a big misunderstanding, who knows. The hospitality did not make us feel good either way. The food was nothing to complain about but also not nearly good enough to make up for the rudeness.

Wonderful value for money Cafe. We had the English breakfast and it was damn fine. Service excellent, prices fantastic quality food.

Restaurante limpio, buen ambiente y la comida estuvo deliciosa. Calidad y precio muy bueno, pedimos Pad Thai, un emparedado y arroz frito. Lo recomiendo al 100%

Yet again Hossein and his amazing team serve up the best Thai food.! Full of atmosphere . Great care, expertise and attention given whilst preparing this food. The chefs cooking and presentation is awesome. Served by the friendliest staff in the restaurant business. Good honest wholesome Thai food. Don’t go anywhere else , unless of course it’s to Hossein’s other Thai restaurant ! The original Fatboys in Edensor Road . Eat relax and enjoy

Great coffe and food. Very cosy place with friendly stuff.

not impressed. The service is consistently slow, menu is poor and often items are not available. Could do better.

Delicious food at Strand Cafe. I had a chicken panang and coconut rice, finished with a tiger beer. The service was amazing, so helpful and friendly. Indoor and outdoor setaing in a quiet location. Beautiful decoration and authentic. Would definitely recommend

We found this little cafe from reading reviews and thought we would give it a go...... We're glad to say the reviews were spot on, we ended up having breakfast here the 3 days we were down here. The owner and staff We're really friendly and seamed to know everyone, he even remembered our order fromthe 1st day and made us feel really welcome. Definitely recommend this establishment if you're in the area and want some decent food, a drink and a friendly atmosphere.

We had breakfast here twice over the weekend. Staff were very helpful and friendly and the food was excellent. The place was clean and tidy.

Lovely little place with tasty quality authentic Thai food. Great service and decoration

We made an impromptu visit with our teenagers for lunch pre-match. We lived in Bangkok for 6 years so we were excited to see Thai food on the menu. It’s now the next day, and I can’t stop thinking about how good our meal was! Incredible Thai food, lovely staff…never mind the rugby, I’m going back just to visit the cafe!

Hidden gem. We fancied a nice breakfast and so glad we came here. Excellent food and service at a decent price. Location is also very nice and the decor is lovely.

Delicious food served quickly, and a great friendly atmosphere.

Always make a point to come here for late breakfast on a Thames Path walk on our annual visit from NY. Food, service, ambience, location all perfect.

Lovely fry up breakfast and nice Lovely service

Did not book but they made room for us. Food absolutely delicious 😋 would highly recommend it.

Excellent service and good food 👌

Great Thai restaurant by night, breakfast cafe by day

Delicious food, strongly recommend, especially green curry and veg spring rolls.

My friend recommended it as we had just been to Kew gardens,only really wanted a quick snack st lunchtime,after spending ages looking at the menu, I'll have that ,no I'll have thst,such a choice ,went for the Beef ,mustard sandwich, very nice ,friend could only eat half so they put it in a bag to have later,definitely go back soon.Also nice and cosy inside.

The food is always lovely, whether it’s traditional breakfast or Thai. Hussein and team are so friendly and welcoming and go above and beyond to ensure that customers have a lovely experience. Always one of my favourite places to eat breakfast, lunch or evening.

The place was lovely, really good atmosphere and the person serving us was really nice. The food was really good and not expensive. Great service and great food in a lovely place

Lovely cafe and they serve very nice pad Thai! Scrumptious and full of flavour. The boss lady was very pleasant and friendly, definitely will come back again!

Lovely little place , a real gem. A really good cup of tea ! Great value and friendly staff

Very fine cuisine at reasonable price!

One of my absolute favourite restaurants in Chiswick!! The food is delicious, whether it's a fry up for breakfast or a thai meal for lunch/dinner. The staff are also very friendly and accommodating.

Really good and cosy environment. Honest breakfast joint!

We came across this great cafe/restaurant a couple of years ago, now whenever we stay in the area we visit for breakfast/brunch. We have not been disappointed with any of the breakfast we have tried and my husband likes the coffee. We look forward to being able to try the Thai restaurant when we visit again. Would definitely recommend this great little cafe near the river and station.

This place is amazing ...everything was perfect,thank you Merry Christmas 😁

Fantastic as always. Fast service, polite and friendly staff, and great food. The Christmas tree looks amazing too. Thank you 😊

Had a lovely breakfast at the Strand Cafe. Lovely food and not expensive at all. Very friendly staff. Would definitely go there again.

I would say this is my first ever authentic Thai dining! It's just amazing that we chose this place regardless of the name who says cafe😍; it was bit confusing that either to try in here or not, whereas it's the best decision that I popped into this place and ended up with the best food ever 😍😍😍! I would say the green curry is the best part here, and I loved the most whichever I tried just on my first time 😍 The service is really amazing, and the ladies over there seem very lovely with serving the food, so do the food taste the best too😍😍😍 If you got a date night and would be the best place with the perfect ambiance, else going out with friends would let you try a variety of options on their menu list. Talking about their menu, the menu card was something unique which I liked a lot, too😍. Definitely recommended when you have thoughts of fine dine-in 😍😍😍.

The place was relaxing. Classic music playing made it even more relaxing with the silence.

Nice little cafe, good food, friendly staff and good service, very pleasant lunch

We came without reservation, unfortunately it was full booked. However we were served on the terrace and thanks to the climate change we had a very enjoyable evening. The great food and service made it a perfect night out.

Lovely little place who do a nice English breakfast and a very assorted lunch menu, Thai food is popular.

Thai food amazing and very good pricing

Great restaurant, lovely food and service

This review is only for their Thai food. They were no longer serving breakfast at the time. I ordered the Tom kha prawn and the spring roll. The spring roll was crunchy and piping hot. The filling looked like any regular egg roll filling - clear noodles with cabbage. It was good to start, but I couldn’t finish it because it was so incredibly sweet. It tasted more like dessert than an appetizer. The Tom kha was okay, but the prawn had a weird taste to it, like it had gone bad. I couldn’t finish this dish either. The service was decent, hence the 2-star rating. I may come back to try their breakfast one of these days, but their Thai food is not something I’d recommend.

A true gem The service is impeccable starting with the friendliness of the staff to the speed of delivery The traditional breakfasts are spot on The Thai menu has never let me down although I very rarely stray from either fresh papaya salad with grilled prawns or red chicken curry with a side order of broccoli stir fried in garlic and ginger

We had lunch here yesterday before the match and the food was very good and the prices were most reasonable!

Our favourite spot in London, food is always delicious 🥰

Food is delicious. Service is fast.

The papaya salad with prawns is always perfect

Lovely small cafe for great food and drink, friendly staff too.

Sat outside and had a lovely Saturday morning breakfast. We both had different cooked breakfasts from the extensive menu; both very tasty and both well presented. The freshly squeezed carrot juice and the mixed berry smoothie were delicious. Service very welcoming. The service was a little bit slow but understandable as they were very busy. Would recommend.

Had breakfast here. Perfectly cooked scrambled eggs with smoked salmon, rocket and ciabatta bread with lemon and ginger tea. The tea was was what I was hoping for - boiling water with chunks of lemon and ginger (not a pretend flavoured ceylon tea e.g. Twinings). It was great. Service was pleasant and polite. Will definitely go back if in the area again.
