Thai Barn in Wiltshire

Delicious food, beautiful setting and lovely service, thank you :-)

After reading the reviews and having lived in Thailand, I was really looking forward to this meal. Disappointed. A rushed meal, papaya salad was really sweet and not authentic. My Massaman curry was made with chicken thighs and wasn’t great. The saddest thing that I witnessed (we were close to reception) was a guy that had ordered a takeaway; he’d returned a few minutes after collecting his food, asking for more sweet chilli sauce. I saw the amount that was given which was a ridiculous amount for the prawn crackers he’d ordered. The owner made a real deal out of it and staff brought him another tiny pot where he declared rudely that it was free of charge. I will not return.

This was a takeaway so I can only comment on the food; service and atmosphere being somewhat irrelevant. I was tempted to score a 1 (terrible) but as I'm in holiday mood, I settled on a 2. Actually, I have now changed my mind in real time as I have just seen Thai Barn's website headline "The South West's Most Acclaimed Fine Thai Cuisine Restaurant". What nonsense. My vegetarian gang pa (jungle curry) contained what seemed to be leftover fragments of yesterday's stewed vegetables and there were scarcely any 'king' prawns in the king prawn pad thai. And if these were once king prawns they must have abdicated days ago as they were miniscule and hard to find amongst the predominant (about 90%) noodles. The diner's comment was that "It's not disgusting". Just terrible.

I've never had a problem eating at an Asian restaurant before as I am Celiac. Any good restaurant would have Gluten Free soy sauce which would enable them to cook things like a basic stir fry. To be presented with a menu with a list of meals as long as your arm but only a tiny selection of Gluten Free options means they are batch cooking these. Expensive and no better than a microwave meal ( which it probably was ). Very disappointing.

Extremely friendly staff. Nice restaurant. Good facilities. We ate outside in a lovely garden area. Food was good, plentiful and reasonably priced. Would recommend.

As new locals we're pleased to find as authentic a Thai menu as you're likely to get. Som and his wonderful people offer you heartfelt Thai greetings as you enter a rustic Thai restaurant that's larger than it looks from the outside. It's our go-to for excellent curries, duck wraps, veggie if preferred, and an extensive menu rivalling restaurants in Phuket, Koh Samui and Bangkok. They get their flavours just right and service is always with a smile. It helps they are just a two minute walk from our Airbnb at 32 Bridge Street.

Great food, with lovely flavours and served by friendly staff. Would recommend booking as it was very popular.

Had a fantastic Thai Meal with these guys for my Wife's Birthday. Great service and wonderful food. Thank you.

Le restaurant sert le repas avec des prix a la base qui ne sont pas spécialement donnés. Mais admettons. Puis vient le moment de l'addition. Et bien on vous rajoute 10% de taxe d'on ne sait où et où nulle part a l'entrée c'est indiqué. Donc on se retrouve avec une taxe inventée qui n'a pas lieu d'être. Restaurant de mauvaise fois avec pratique commerciale plus que douteuse

The food was the best Thai food I have ever tasted. I have never been here before but I will definitely be visiting again. Staff were really polite and welcoming. Would definitely recommend!

Fantastic food and really friendly staff. Excellent service. Looking forward to going here again soon.

We booked at short notice for a big group, away for a few days in the area. Despite ordering different dishes the service was friendly and efficient. The food was delicious and I was particularly pleased that we could choose how mild or hot we wanted the curry. It was the best Thai food I have ever tasted. Absolutely fantastic. Only one negative- I live over 200 miles away!

Was OK, food was good... quite expensive for ok. Nothing bad, was busy but also didn't have much atmosphere....

Great food. Bit pricey but really top food so would be happy to go again

The curry was good and priced well. However, I cannot get over how extortiate the prices for the starters are when they are so tiny! £15 for a shared starter and we were both so disappointed. They also forgot to give us half the order and, when we had to go back for it, didn't try to make up for it in any way. If you are paying that much for, what is frankly just mostly deep fried stuff, you expect higher standards.

Delicious authentic Thai restaurant! I highly recommend the Som Tum (papaya salad) and Weeping Tiger (grilled beef). Taste was delicious as how you would find it in Thailand (restaurant is run by Thai people). Service was very attentive and quick.

A really lovely atmosphere, great service and excellent food. We went on the spur of a moment and would strongly recommend.

It’s a nice and authentic Thai restaurant. Food is tasty and the atmosphere is very nice. Good service. Recommended

Tasty Thai food and a comfortable and cosy atmosphere!

This is a great restaurant- food was excellent - good choice of dishes all well cooked. Staff were friendly and helpful (one of our party was on crutches and they were very accommodating) . Good value for money and a lovely location. Would def recommend 👌

Delicious food, great service, lovely environment for a delicious meal!

We are regulars at the Thai Barn and also come with family and friends the food always very good we have got to know the staff over time they are always friendly and polite,the food always excellent highly recommended.Marion and Roger

Since moving to BonA last year Thai Barn has quickly become our favourite restaurant here. The food is always excellent and we are always made to feel very welcome by the kind and cheerful staff. We look forward to many visits in the future!!

Disappointing- food lacked flavour or usual authentic Thai flavour or aromatics, no spice at all, no garnishes eg fresh chillies. When we requested some chilli sauce we were given a small dish of dried chilli flakes, not at all the same as they only really work during the cooking process and just added weird crunch. Such a shame, has a great reputation!

Vielfältige Speisekarte. Essen war schnell fertig. Nette aufmerksame Bedienung

Superb midweek dinner. Very friendly staff, quick service, comfortable surroundings. Excellent, authentic dishes. Recommended.

Really good Thai restaurant in middle of the town. The food is very tasty and well presented. I had the Massermann curry which was excellent, great tastes and textures. We also had the green curry which was equally good. Staff are very friendly and welcoming, good atmosphere.

I love the Thai barn, every visit is filled with anticipation of what the food is going to be like. The staff are lovely and respectful. This evening was special, not just because of the food but we sat in their garden when it was really hot this week. It was a sweet relief to be sitting there with candles, a nice bottle of wine and some superb food..

Fantastic take away. Hot food, flavoursome and fab ingredients. The food here is always delicious and we will be back soon. The restaurant itself is so cosy and inviting, especially when the fire is lit.

Great all rounder! Have been going for many years and it's still just as lovely.

Bought my family here. We have had our fair share of Thai food, having been to Thailand and coming from London. I really recommend eating here. The food is fresh and beautifully seasoned. They do get busy so I would recommend booking.

The staff were absolutely amazing super attentive and were very polite. The food arrived promptly and could not be faulted. Can’t wait to try again!

We ate here on a Thursday night. The food was fantastic and certainly not expensive. The menu choice was really good, and the quality and presentation was great. It's our favourite Thai restaurant and we'll definitely go back.

Lovely meal tonight. Good atmosphere place was full. Good value. Will go again

Absolutely perfect Thai food. Delicate flavours, perfectly balanced to give you that nice, clean taste. We shared the appetizers, and each was perfectly balanced with the various sauces, as suggested by the server. I had the red curry with beef and again, it was perfect. The beef was so tender and the sauce was infused with the aubergine. Lovely. Will be back.

The food is amazing!! Lovely staff

The Thai Barn restaurant offers a large selection of Thai food. The restaurant is always busy and you need to book as they are often full even midweek. The food tastes great and is definitely a noticeable step above other Thai places around the area. Cost wise it is a bit more than other places so for two courses and a soft drink you will often spend £25-30 per person.

Absolutely fantastic Thai food with brilliant service. The tamarind duck was outstanding.

This lovely restaurant is nestled in the beautiful town of Bradford-on-Avon. The dishes are not only sumptuous, they reflect the beauty of the area where the restaurant is located. We started with fried squid, which was delicate and cooked to perfection. Our mains were Kao Pad Sabparod, fried rice, with shrimp, green onions, sultana’s, and pineapple. As you can see by the photo, it was served in a roasted pineapple shell. Super presentation, and a great balance of flavors. Or second mean was Massaman curry with chicken. While many Thai restaurants have thin, bodied curry, this homemade style curry was thick and luscious. And the prices were very reasonable, and the service was attentive without being intrusive. If you were in the area and looking for a great evening meal, make sure to book Here.

Just had a fab pad Thai takeaway. Really pleased to see it served in upright cardboard containers rather than plastic.

Always brilliant but somehow the food seems to be getting even better.

Excellent food and service. Pleasant ambience and clearly very popular - even out of season in a Tuesday night, make sure you book!

Great service, Absolutely wonderful food, what more do you need to know 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ Thank you for such yummy food 😋😋😋

Had pad Thai with king prawns. Partner had yellow curry. Very tasty and reasonable prices

My partner and I came here for a special evening a couple of weeks ago and felt like trying somewhere new. The atmosphere was very relaxing and the staff were extremely friendly across the board and hit a great mix of attentiveness without ever being intrusive. The selection of food was really good, and the quality itself was fantastic, and even the menu items like the banana fritter dessert, which most times I've tried them at other restaurants end up oily and greasy, were perfectly cooked. To top it off, the prices are extremely good, especially for the quality Thai Barn creates. It's our new favourite Thai restaurant and we'll definitely be coming back regularly.

Consistently good and tasty food and very reasonably priced. We have take aways and also dine in. Both great.

Excellent food. Service great too.

Always superb tasty food and friendly attentive service

Excellent food, friendly staff, worth the travel distance to get here!

I was not prepared how lovely this food was! This was the best Thai food my boyfriend and I had ever eaten- so wonderfully spiced and cooked to perfection, with chicken and fish that just fell apart! It was very reasonably priced as well, with a bottle of water, two starters, two mains and a bowl of rice coming to just over £50. Would very much recommend!

Yummy. Delicious pad Thai noodles. Super fast and friendly service.

Stumbled upon this place on a canal boating holiday. Some of the best Thai food I've ever had in the UK! Good quality ingredients and an authentic spicy kick! Really nice staff too.

Really tasty food and friendly service. Good value too. Penang curry excellent not too mild (korma) or too hot (madras) just right.

Nice restaurant, excellent food

Lovely food. Nice staff. Highly recommended. Masa man just perfect. Thanks guys 😊

Som & his team were fabulous & accommodated 10 of us at short notice. The food is high quality & very tasty with loads of vegetarian options. Highly recommend

5 stars all the way for the food and lovely service! We had the most amazing, yummy Thai curries. Would definitely recommend this place! Thank you Thai Barn - we will be back for sure!

Amazing food and very attentive warm service. Will be back as often as possible!!!

Had a quick dinner here and the food was amazing! They recommend me the noodle, I really like them, and their price is valuable. The restaurant is popular, so need to have a reservation in advance. And the staffs are friendly, had a nice experience and will come again!

Absolutely fantastic food first time I've been here and I wasn't disappointed staff really amazing thank you all very much .If you haven't been here before do try and see for yourself.

I visited here over Easter weekend with my partner (who is from Thailand). I loved the food and my partner said the food was really good and very fresh/authentic. The staff were so friendly too. We loved the meal here!

Went with a party of 8 on a Sunday afternoon. Great food and service. Look at the meal for 2 options.

Really good place with a large selection of dishes (and a great vegetarian menue). Staff was really kind and quick. Many thanks!

My wife gave the food at the Thai Barn 9.5/10. Believe me that hardly ever happens!! Lovely food, lovely staff, well worth a visit.

We flew up from Spain to try this restaurant. Absolutely five star experience and incredibly authentic food. Saisunee and Alan have created a wonderful experience for their clients, with care that they show in the food, the decor, and their kindness. Nee, it was a pleasure meeting you and thank you for the tour of the restaurant. We will come back soon and will be praying for Alan. --Andrew

The best Thai in the area - food never disappoints and service & staff are fantastic too.

went on a Sunday afternoon and wasn't busy at all. the food all tasted great, looked great and at reasonable prices! definitely recommend

Ideally located in the centre of town. Very friendly and warm staff. Had a mixed starter which was huge helping compared to some in London and the King prawn was perfectly cooked. I had Pad Thai and it was as authentic as I could remember having it in Thailand. My partner had beef equivalent and suffice to say we couldn't finish our food and took the rest home. Definitely come back and will highly recommend. Sorry no photos.

2nd time we have had food from here in 2 years and the food looks good, but sadly no flavour which is suprising. We add some salt, garlic etc which helped. We don't like leaving bad reviews but we've spent a lot and were left disappointed each time.

Cosy, friendly, brill food. Love it there

It was a very good experience, nice staff amazing food and nicely decorated restaurant, I would definitely recommend if your in the area.

This restaurant is very amazing. Staff is lovely and food is delicious the taste is real Thai. I love food from this restaurant a lot. I’m from Thailand I can say to you it’s original taste from Thailand.

Our first visit here. Lovely staff, good meal and a pleasant and comfortable restaurant

Amazing Thai food, reasonably priced, good portion size and very tasty! All of the other 5 star reviews aren't wrong!

Really authentic fresh Thai food served with a really nice ambiance would highly recommend!!

Excellent food, lots of variety for veggies, vegans and gluten free menus. Staff are helpful, friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend if in the area!

Always excellent food. The staff are always friendly and knowledgeable. Great selection of authentic dishes.

Great Thai restaurant has been there ages and still brilliant

Was decent food, but seemed a bit pricey for what you get.

Food was amazing from takeaway and dine out

Lovely food, Super impressed! We had a little family gathering for my grandparents anniversary, and they took good care of us. Made sure that we got all the food we ordered, they was lovely people and extra tasty food! You won't be disappointed

Always great food. Consistently one of the best Thai restaurants in the area. As a result, almost always busy and at times difficult to get a table if you haven't booked. But always great food.

Had a lovely meal, service was excellent and in good time. Will be looking forward to going again. Have just had another amazing meal and I can't fault anything.

First time, it was Glush, very tasty, good portions. Will definitely go again.

Wow I have been in Bradford-on-Avon on and off for a while and have passed 'The Thai Barn' many a time. We'll this evening we thought we would give it a try and have a meal, being vegetarians we were spoilt for many choices! The staff are lovely and there is a a roof garden on the fourth floor 😀

We were in a lovely upstairs room where we were served absolutely delicious, perfectly cooked food efficiently, by gentle, attentive staff. I can highly recommend the set meal for 2! Will definitely be back.

Been to many Thai restaurants as one of my favourite cuisine and Thai Barn is most definitely one of the best I’ve ever had. The dishes were so traditionally made, I really felt like traveling to Thailand. So many beautiful flavours, lots of spices, and just enough of a kick to boost it up. Couldn’t recommend enough. Yum yum yum.

I enjoyed the food, but the service was far too slow. Hopefully, this is just a temporary problem.

I really like this restaurant, it's truly authentic and the quality of the food is spot on. I'd usually include more photos but I was too busy tucking in. Highly recommend, exactly what a Thai restaurant should be.

Wonderful amazing food. Truly a devine experience, fast service and high quality food, the massaman curry is a must! Never had one so good!

Lovely meal. They found us a table after a short wait in a pretty full restaurant. Great to see people enjoying an airy restaurant and good food.

Lovely friendly place, excellent Thai dishes, all set my home town of 60 or so years!

Great food & lovely people, recently after being let down by a nearby shabby run pub, the good people of Thai Barn saved the day and squeezed us in, great night yet again, highly recommend. Thank you so much Thai Barn.

Wonderful food served by a charming Canadian lady. Recommended

Really tasty, good for vegans and veggies too

My girlfriend and I had an exquisite meal in an utterly wonderful environment. We sat in the garden with the sound of the waterfall and fantastic planting. Food was absolutely top top notch!! I went for Tempura Prawns and Massaman Beef curry👌 Lovely friendly team as well, you cannot beat restaurants like this🙏

We had an incredible meal at Thai Barn, the staff were ever so friendly and attentive, the restaurant is laid out across 3 floors and we never felt like we were being missed out which can happen at large restaurants. The food was to die for and the vegetarian options were delicious, we will certainly be back to sit outside in their terrace garden!

Excellent food and excellent service

Disappointed really ,at the prices charged and quality of main course,starter was lovely

We had another amazing meal here on Sunday night!! Beautifully tasty good, perfect service definitely a 5 star experience
