Thai Dereham in Breckland

Lovely ambiance, great food and brilliant service. Good variety of dishes, including plenty of vegetarian options. Will definitely be back.

We were looking for somewhere new to eat and found the Thai Dereham. A very interesting experience. A Thai chef cooks authentic extremely good food. The sharing starter, massaman curry, pad thai, chillie and basil stir fried vegetables followed by a banana and coconut dessert were fantastic. The waiter was also very friendly. The issue: only 2 couples in on a Friday night and no visible take outs. When asking for a bit of music (to avoid hearing everything of the other couple) it was evident there was no money to repair the music system. This restaurant deserves to be full, but as is, it is difficult to see it survive.

This is the first time we have been to this restaurant and will definitely be going back. The food was amazing, freshly cooked and the staff really friendly and nice. If you want authentic Thai food, this is definitely the place.

Had take away- excellent- up to the usual high standard.

Very friendly and efficient service. Freshly cooked Thai dishes which were delicious. Visiting Dereham Thai was a lovely change from the usual pub fare. Well worth a visit. Happy to support local independent businesses.

What a hidden gem! An absolutely fabulous evening at Thai Dereham. To not knowing what to expect but to be blown away by this place, wow! The atmosphere was calm but very welcoming and my party and I commented on the warm reception and prompt service immediately. The food, my goodness, was bloody excellent. We had the starters platter, Pad Thai, Drunken Rum Beef and a chef's special scallops and prawn dish which were all packed with flavour and cooked with ingredients which were clearly fresh and flavourful. People of Norfolk, don't sleep on this place and give it the recognition it clearly deserves! We will be back very soon!

Absolutely fantastic restaurant, food was amazing and staff were so friendly and helpful. Would recommend if you want a lovely Thai meal

We always come here, and the food is always perfect and great value.

Terrible service waited over 30mins for drinks - my son’s food classed as tangy was so so hot that he was unable to eat his £20 dish. When questioned why this was not classed as spicy on the menu I was told by a rather rude member of staff that I had to pay as my son had eaten two bits of the duck, I was also told that tangy meant spicy in their restaurant. The whole experience was horrendous and the bad customer service I received means I will never go back and will now go to the Thai restaurant in beetley.

Food is absolutely amazing Fresh and service is good every time we go in we have a nice meal. staff are friendly too Nice little Gem

One of the nicest Thai restaurants we have been to. The service was friendly and welcoming, the food was really tasty, generous portions (we couldnt eat it all!) We would recommend and shall visit again, thank you!

Absolutely disgusting food and very rude staff. Came here for a family meal spent a lot of money and the rice was hard,the food over all was dry, cold,bland, the beef did NOT look or taste like beef and was cold and I was refused a refund when they could see clearly it hadn’t been touched. You could make a better meal at home and save yourself money!! Avoid this restaurant at all costs and go to the shatudee wymondham there the best! Will never be coming again.

Not been here for a while but decided on a takeaway meal for 5 of us. We all had different dishes and all were super tasty. Not one complaint. Delicious We’re planning on a sit down visit soon Recommended

My new favourite restaurant. Second is the white lion pub norwich. This place was fantastic. The staff were so helpful and patient, they gave us good advice on what to order etc. The food was incredible. We had the butterfly King prawn and squid starters followed by peeking tiger Rib eye steak - superb!! Beautifully cooked medium rare in a delicious powerful savoury sauce with mushrooms and a little veg cooked to perfection. The other meal we had was seafood ie prawns mussels and squid in a sweet sauce, which was lovely but very sweet, so would accompany it with plain rice to combat the strong flavour profiles.

Food was absolutely amazing. Service was equally excellent. Staff very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended

Best Thai takeaway we've had, a but more expensive than some but you definitely get what you pay for !

Our first time visiting here. The food was lovely. Our waiter was polite, friendly and helped us choose our dishes. Will definately return

Such a lovely restaurant. The staff were friendly and helpful, with excellent service. The food was so delicious and the portions generous, really high quality! Will definitely be going back

Yummy food and lovely friendly staff. Highly recommend 😁

Very average was not that impressed. the pad Thai was a let down. Sorry but will not be returning, food needed more flavour. Service was very good and very polite, but this was not to my taste

Food was full of flavour and the portions were huge. Staff are very attentive and helpful, we had a great time and will be returning!

Good food, extensive choice, charming service,decent value. Better quality than expected from outside.

Delicious food and lovely staff.

Nice taste but blew my head off, think I should have asked for less spices and chilli, drank who jug water to flush it down and eyes red for days.

Lovely little restaurant with seating on two floors. Friendly welcome and great food. Extensive menu, we choose the set meal for two. Great selection of starters with dipping sauces. The mains were all very fresh and tasty. Chicken cashew nuts, Thai beef curry and mixed vegetable dish and also rice. For dessert I chose the honeycomb cheesecake which was lovely and hubby plumped for an Irish coffee. Would definitely return.

Very fresh food. Generous portions. Lovely staff. Thoroughly recommend. ❤️ We will return soon…with friends

My husband and I had a fabulous meal in this little restaurant tonight. The food was excellent and the service attentive without being intrusive. We would definitely return and recommend this restaurant unreservedly

Pretty solid for Dereham, nothing wrong with it but for the price I won't rush back.

Wonderful tasty food and polite, attentive staff. Definitely recommend 10/10

We had a lovely meal at Thai Dereham. The food and service were really good. We strongly recommend a visit for a good quality, value for money meal.

Took the family here for dinner and enjoyed a stunning selection of Thai food and the wonderful service made it even better 10/10. Great venue for a good night out.

Hidden Gem Fantastice authentic Thai food cooked and served perfectly by people who care about the customers' experience. We love the Thai at the Ordnance Arms in Guist and were pleasantly surprised to find this is a sister restaurant. We highly recommend this thai restaurant.

My wife's family and I had an excellent takeaway this evening from Thai Dereham. Everyone enjoyed their food. The staff dealt with any allergy needs professionally. I'd really recommend Thai Dereham if they're in need of excellent thai food in the area.

What a little gem. Weve had absolutely amazing food and service this evening- thank you soo much. We will definitely be returning.

We frequent this restaurant often and we have never been disappointed. From the staff, food and drink. Everything is 100%. The staff are so friendly and the food is so delicious. We cannot say a bad thing.

Lovely place! Friendly staff! Food was amazing and beautifully presented

Nice restaurant with friendly staff and the food is always nice. Whenever we're in the area we always make a point of getting food here. I'm a fan of the jungle curry but have also had other dishes which are just as nice. Never had a bad dish...everything I've tried here is always excellent.

Delicious! Excellent service and lovely atmosphere. Yummy 😋 highly recommend 😀

Went here last night with family. What a find! Tucked away in a quiet street behind the market place is a really great Thai restaurant. Food was very authentic and the service excellent. The chef came out at the end to thank us for coming.

Had a lovely Thai meal from here as takeaway last night. The salt and pepper squid starter was lovely as was the sizzling special mixed stir fried sea food. We also had pineapple fried rice and crab fried rice which in all honesty, one fried rice is enough between two people, very nice though. We ordered and collected within 30mins which was great for a Saturday night although struggled to find parking as we are on holiday. Bit expensive for takeaway, but to be honest, if we had dined in I wouldn’t have questioned it. If your in the area give it a try 👍

Really excellent, authentic and balanced flavours. Highly recommended.

Really excellent food, full of authentic flavours. We asked for spicy and it was just right. Each dish had its own carefully crafted and unique taste. We all really enjoyed the meal and would highly recommend Thai Dereham.

We were a large group and were very looked after. Food was delicious and quick but beware the hot soup was very, very hot! Good choice for vegetarians and vegan in our group

The best place to eat in Dereham. Have been a few times now and the food and service each time has been excellent. It is 100% the best restaurant in Dereham.

Food is all way beautifully cooked alway fresh and extremely tasty

Superb takeaway. From ordering via delivery to eating. Piping hot food. Tastes very fresh. One of the best I’ve ever had. Chicken green curry was very good as was duck with ginger and weeping tiger. Sorry no photos as ate it all before thinking.

The food and service were largely good, however everything (except the starters) was quite sweet and this was a bit too odd for us with a pad Thai. The duck spring rolls and chicken satay were especially delicious and the chicken Penang curry and red duck curry were good, if a bit on the sweet side. The jasmine rice was decent too and in the main portion sizes were generous. We opted for a vegetable pad Thai and it was frankly too sweet - we were drinking coke too, so it was especially notable. We didn't eat it and raised the issue with the serving staff, but were told that this was to be expected with a pad Thai, which was a first for us! The price was reasonable, but we wouldn't visit again.

Great food prepared how you like it.

Holidaying in Norfolk and found the details in our holiday cottage. What a find ! Despite being a distance away, the food arrived on time, piping hot and was delicious- highly recommend!

Details for this restaurant were left in our holiday cottage. We ordered a delivery and despite being a fair way away, the food arrived on time, piping hot and was delicious. The prawn crackers were the nicest I’ve tasted and the Pad Thai and Pad Mee very very tasty and huge portions. Definitely recommend and wish we had a place like this nearer home.

Food was absolutely amazing 👏, downside on this review is service was very slow 🐌 which was a little off putting.

Always a lovely welcome in the years that we have been going there never a bad meal and tonight we had a friend with us who is in the late eighties never tried that type of cuisine before and loved all 3 courses

Had a good meal. Huge portion especially the starters which were too big if you are also having a main course. Service was good. Prices were good. One drawback is that some of the tables are upstairs which arent easy to negotiate if you are...

Love the food, absolutely awesome, friendly staff and you pay for what you get

Lovely food and very pleasant staff

Went here by chance. What a super find. Not only was the food so flavoursome the portion sizes were most satisfying. Staff friendly and helpful. Highly recommend a trip to Dereham to eat at this delightful restaurant.. wish I just lived a little closer. Did ask if they could extend their takeaway delivery service to a 50 Mike radius but guess that pushing it. Thank you.

We are staying nearby for a holiday and saw that Thai Dereham had good reviews so thought we would give it a try. Wow the reviews were right, the food was lovely! We ordered several different curries, pad thai, stir fry and spring rolls, all...

Really delicious Thai, takeout for us, and a very friendly chatty waiter who helped us with our order. Would recommend, and we plan on returning.

Amazing take away! Absolutely delicious thai food and would absolutely go here again :D Already looking forward to next time!

We loved the food. The crispy chicken starter was amazing. Friendly staff and excellent service. We also felt safe and that they were taking covid safety responsibly. Decor is cosy but temperature cool on a fairly hot summer evening. Many thanks for a lovely evening....

Booked here for a Sunday evening dinner with our 2 daughters. Good location in the middle of Dereham & quiet during our visit. We received good service & plentiful food which was tasty & good value. Typical Thai taste - which we enjoy & perhaps...

A big thank you to Mark, Gareth and all the team who work so hard to provide us with the incredible service and amazing food in these very difficult times. Just had another very tasty takeaway from Thai Dereham. The food is always so fresh, extremely tasty and hot when delivered. It's not quite the restaurant experience but with the help of Alexa playing some Thai music in the background, it's nearly there. Keep up the good work guys. Stay safe. Dave and Joanne

Brilliant meal, really enjoyed it. Will definitely order again. Great service, really helpful. Thank you so much.

May look a little rustic from the outside but they serve the best Thai food in the area in our opinion, friendly staff and reasonably priced, definitely worth a visit.

Just one word is needed to describe this place . AMAZING 👏

Popped In a few weeks ago after hearing good reviews. Was fairly quiet the night we popped in so had plenty of space, the gentleman serving us was very friendly and prompt. Food came out quickly and was delicious. Chef came up to say hello...

An excellent place to be. The servers were very friendly and the food was quite authentic. We had a nice meal with our family. Thank you!

Was only two covers and waiter said that's the only bookings for the night, and still put us next to each other really! Food was very mediocre actually rubbish! Should have realised when walked in entrance and ironing board up with table cloth on it really! Sort it out if could give it lower than 1* would have, Very over priced for what its worth. I'm from London and expected more but looking at reviews this is what people are used to in Norfolk.

Lovely food and friendly staff xx

There was 6 of us who went here, and whilst we all found the food to be OK, we had problems in so far as one of our Group was wheelchair bound, the big problem is that there are no toilets downstairs, which we understand...

Dined here recently to make use of the eat out to help out scheme and was very impressed! The meal was great value for money, amazing food and the service was very quick and friendly.would highly reccomend!

Food was amazing! Managed to book a table in table to take advantage of the government scheme currently on. First time dining here was recommended by a few friends from work who regularly have takeaways on the weekends, was suprised how spacious the upstairs dining...

Always had a fab night out but wow dreadful service 😒 ordered set meal for 4 no napkins hardly any drinks ordered because of no staff coming over..plates cleared...then 45 minutes later a waiter asked if we were basically ready to go! We replied we...

Went over to have a meal, on the help to eat out. We had garlic rice , Pad Thai with king prawns and stir fry king prawn. They were delicious. Customer service was friendly and helpful. Sadly though, the restaurant it self really let the...

Lovely friendly people. Sticking well to Covid rules. Meal was rather expensive I felt for what we had. Sizzling Rib eye, sticky, Lukewarm, no sizzle at all. Green curry too sweet. No peanuts to be found in Pad Thai and was oily. I could have maybe sent it all back but just thought, too much trouble, we've tried it and would not return.

Had a right banging meal from the Thai Dereham last night. Highly recommend the Nam Tok. Add an order of chilli oil rice and there is no hiding place. It was hot going in and it was hot coming out like a proper spicy meal...

Very good for a staff meal out , They looked after us very much . Thank you from AirportChauffeursUK.com

Love this place. The staff are attentive and the food is amazing. One of my favourite places to eat.

Whether it's takeaway or dining in Thai Dereham never fails to deliver high quality, fantastic tasting food. With almost the whole menu being offered with vegetarian/vegan choice. I mostly get takeaways from here and have been for over 3 years, never had one average meal...

Sadly this was poor, for what we paid, could have done more £6 for squid for only 4 mixed size pieces and tasteless, taste was ok on other parts but too small potions.

Wonderful service, very friendly staff. Excellent food, every item was delicious. Would definitely recommend and will return.

Always go here Sunday nights when we are staying in the area excellent food

Amazing food and fantastic service. Very relaxed atmosphere and nicely decorated!! Would definitely be going again!!

This is a nice hidden Thai Restaurant that you shouldnt miss, the menus is expansive and all around delicious with a wide selection of drinks as well. While personally not vegetarian, my date was satisfied that almost everything on the menu had a vegetarian option. I personally had a pork dish (I cant remember the name) and it was fantastic. The service was very friendly as well. Will be going again.

Amazing food, grey value. All you can eat freshly cooked food at £ 15.95 per person. Only on Sunday nights, and always fully booked... Been backed here many times!

We have just eaten a delicious takeaway. We had chicken Penang and Lemongrass Chicken, the flavours were amazing, fresh and plenty of meat. Yummy!

Reviewing Dereham Thai because the food is always consistently good. Whether it’s eating in, or takeaway, the food is delicious. Our favourites are Crispy Beef & Crab rice. Staff are friendly & service spot on. You won’t get a better meal in Dereham.

I ansolutely hate with a vengeance those awful green and red peppers, if I eat one I will be repeating it for days, awful things, i'm not allergic, I just don't like the taste or the after effects, most dishes have them, I asked can I have mine without "yes, no problem" I ordered, saying again "no peppers" everything came out with peppers, I said I asked for no peppers, I got a shrug, I waited for the guy I ordered from, he said oh, sorry, let me pick them out for you! this was a while ago and we as a group have never been back,

Authentic, fresh, flavourful food. It is consistently good and always something to look forward to. It isn't the cheapest take away but it is great value as the food is of such good quality. Streets ahead of anywhere else in Dereham.A particular favourite for me is the Penang curry but everything I have tried has been excellent.

Got to report on the banging takeaway we had last night. I have always ordered the weeping tiger from here whenever I have takeaway and it’s always been good. Last night I decided to try a different dish so went for the beef red curry. Wow, it was absolutely banging good. Highly recommend this dish to anyone who likes a bit of flavour in their meal. My missus had a yellow curry which also looked good and she seemed to like it so all in all a smashing takeaway.

Service was a bit slow but the food was well worth it.

First time I'd eaten a thai really enjoyed it will be returning

Delicious Thai food in a very unexpected location. Definitely wasn't expecting it in the middle of Norfolk.

We always receive a warm welcome and the food is consistently delicious. Mark is very helpful with recommendations for both food and wine if any advice is needed. Everything is freshly cooked and for anyone who enjoys Thai food, the menu choices and fantastic favours are excellent. We will visit again soon.

Wonderful food. Had a takeaway and everything was cooked well, especially the Pad Thai.

Visited with friends and family, the food was excellent and very friendly service. I will definitely be visiting again and recommending to friends..

Friendly & welcoming. Food was hot and tasty. Great authentic Thai meal!
