Thai Express in Birmingham

I come here every time I'm in Birmingham for work. I love it! The food is delicious and the staff are so friendly. Especially Diego ! He's very chatty and friendly! Would definitely recommend! :)

Great food in a nice little restaurant. Would recommend.

First time having Pad Sew Ew Medium spice - with chicken Got it to takeaway - was still hot when I got home after about 20 mins Fantastic, not too heavy and not too oily! My new favourite noodle dish Cooked fresh and lovely staff Thank you!

Today me and my wife wanted to try new cusine We both went to thai express We were confused what noodels we should try We asked one of the front guy he was so rude We ordered tom yum and thai noodel the food was sososo bad tomyom was like chocolate soup i think they add sugar in it and the noodels was overcooked. Thai noodles was average. We had stomachache after going back home Plz make food delicious how it should taste And plz clean the restaurant make it neat and clean. Would never recommend this restaurant I am really sad 👎

Fairly healthy for fast food with actual vegetables. I lived the Tofu and broccoli! Some vegan options and staff could answer my questions about ingredients. Would go again if I have to wait for a train. It's upstairs in the corner.

Very friendly staff, especially surya we went there first time and he explained all the menu perfectly and his recommendations was best 👌

The food is really amazing cooked nicely and a good customer service and friendly service

Diego gave excellent service, give him a manager position please.

Food was amazing and staff were really friendly. I felt very comfortable and the food came in time and right temperature

Food is alright, serving time preposterous, you have to wait more than in a Michelins restaurant for a fast food.

Thai express is the best food ever !!!

I have spent £28.40 for nothing food very bad test

Best food I ever have and fantastic service provided by the staffs

We just went there today,Diego served us who had smile and so nice guy. Thank you

I loved the mixed chicken and prawn pad thai.

Been here twice, had the chicken soup and the pad thai and loved it both times. Would 100% recommend, especially if you love spice

This was my first time trying Thai food,and I absolutely livet it.I can't wait to explore more of the menu.

Not good. “Aubergine sauce” had 1 single piece of aubergine, the chicken was precooked slices, sauce was way too salty, and couldn’t taste much other than salt. Only reason I kept eating was because I was starving and hadn’t eaten all day…

It’s very delicious food love it the guy named surya His servicing and friendly talking guy love it And food is outstanding Thai authentic

Ilse she very friendly and helpful

Ilse was very good in helping me to chose my meal Like and pleased to be surved by her

The food was awesome and delicious And the service and surrounding was very friendly I met the staff oli he was too good and the way he served was love it

Been there about 14/15 times. Whenever we go to bullring Thai express is must. This time they didn’t let us sit saying only takeaway. But half of the dining area was full and kids were tired. They were open for another 2 hours. The reception guy was so rude. We took a friend with his famil. Thai express can do better business if they recruit some decent staff. 2 stars for the food quality.

I’m Thai and I always order the pad thai everytime I come to Birmingham and it’s been tasty and consistent everytime for the last 1-2 years of eating here. The Pad Thai doesn’t taste like something you’d get in Thailand but in my opinion, it’s different and favors towards my tastebuds, and it’s so tasty (I always order very spicy). It’s my favorite takeaway to order and I’m sure asians enjoy this dish

Great food Awesome atmosphere Loved it Will be back soon☺️

What a dish!!! Loving this new dish they launched. Full with flavour and great for share…. Love their new euro game as well. I won a Coke 😀

Very nice food and kind persons to attend the customers

Best thai food I have tried.Thanks Ilse for your help.

I love this place! The food is super delicious, was served by Lima and Diogo. They are very friendly and give you good recommendations. We got chicken fried rice and noodle, absolutely love them! Would definitely recommend everybody to come here and try out these delicacy 💯💯💯

Everything is superb. I was served by Lima, he was very friendly and gave me recommendations for the food. The food is lush, the restaurant is very clean and well-kept. Amazing experience! Would definitely come back here

Very pleasant indeed. We got a lot of food, were served by Lima and he is very chatty. Good food, good environment. Highly recommended!!

Good staffs, good food, would go there again

Not impressed with the quality of the food at all. I ordered the Thairacha Wings Hot Box (Wings and Chips). The sauce had a chemical taste so made the wings unpleasant. As for the chips, they were close to raw in the middle. Not a place I will be returning to.

Consistently delicious food. Incredible hospitality and service. Very polite and accommodating staff. Clean and tidy restaurant. Shout out to Diego!

best food I've had on skibidi. I come here like twice a week I'm a fein for thai express.

Omg SO yum. This is our favourite food, we come as often as we can. Spicy rice with chicken is the best!

My friend and I stumbled into this restaurant while waiting for our train. We ordered the chicken and beef noodles. The food tasted ok but we got sick on our journey and as i am writing this review, we continue to have diarrhea. Will never recommend.

A special thanks to the team - inse the cashier, tiago who cooked my meal and Mohammed for the great service. I can’t help but write this review today. I was looking for a quick vegetarian dinner on this lovely evening and came across this gem. The staff were pleasant - ( I know how hot it can get in a kitchen! Especially on a hot day) The food came quick and I would definitely recommend Thai express to anyone who’s looking for food in grand central. The tofu stir fry with sticky rice had a nice Smokey taste to it. I am overwhelmed and will certainly be returning.

Pad Thai was beansprouts mainly. Rice was overcooked mush. Worst Thai ever. Ended up binning it and making A Sandwich

Perfect Thai food,end perfect service,, thanks all for ,,,all workers♥️

Small portions, their Tom yum soup was more like water and pepper - no taste. Disappointing to say the least

Workers were great fast service and friendly and food tasted traditional and nice

Been coming here for a good while now, food is always 10/10, incredibly friendly staff and timely service, highly recommend!

The taste was very very very bad. I basically threw away a whole box, wasting more than ten pounds. I will never come here again and I don't recommend it to anyone.

Very nice meal. Not as spicy as I expected.

Thai Express offered a mixed experience with their Pad Thai, featuring undercooked tofu and raw vegetables. While the self-service setup fostered a friendly atmosphere, the food quality fell short of expectations. Despite the convenience of self-service, the lack of attention to detail in the dish and overall inconsistency in the dining experience left much to be desired. It's disappointing that such potential wasn't fully realized, making it unlikely for a return visit.

Absolutely pissed at the appalling service!!!! Bought pad Thai for myself, spicy with extra prawns and a mild pad thai for my pregnant friend who has severe heartburn. Pregnant friend ended up with my food labelled as mild, I end up with mild as a newborn baby's diarrhoea labelled as my spicy extra prawn meal. Absolutely fuming, hangry as f right now..what a waste of £23!

Thai Express not only exceeded my expectations, it also stood out as one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to enjoy authentic and delicious Thai cuisine in a warm and hospitable environment.

I loved the experience at Thai Express. Great food, the staff are super friendly and attentive, the waiting time was quick. We loved it and will definitely do it again. Super recommended❤️

ooh this is well delicious,good for the health and friendly staff...Amazing !!!

Excellent service, easy menu , delicious food, family friendly, friendly staff and they’ll explain everything to you with a smile. I’ve been coming here for more than three years and they have never let me down. By far the best Thai food place in Birmingham!

Food was outstanding. Taste is really good. Thanks thai express team for this amazing experience.

Food was amazing 😍 Lima best manager.

Ilsi made my food it was supper tasty.

My favourite spot.. friendly staff.

Nice place to have food at. Food was 10/10 really nice and good portions size for a good price. Excellent service from the staff. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to try Thai food.

Excellent food option👌🏻 Very tasty 🤤

Food was great and server was very sweet

Staff were so lovely and food was excellent!

The best food in the UK, all top quality...

Good food and great staff service, specially from Ilse who greeted us really well.

Always a pleasure to eat here. The dishes are flavoursome, the portions are generous, and spicy MEANS spicy. Complements to the chef, and all who work here. A well run ship.

Food was quite average. Reasonable price. If you’re hungry you can go and quick grab. But this is not authentic Thai food. Veg rolls were already pre-made and kept under the light. Would not recommend.We bought Pad Thai and Fried rice. Fried rice is better compared to padthai. Not a Good place to sit and chill. It is more of Takeaway station. Apart from that people are nice and friendly in the restaurant.

Great food, great service by ILSE. Stir-fry is 10/10. I Recommend this spot if youre in grand central 👍

Great little halal Thai place in central Birmingham, ideal to grab a quick bite. The food was lovely, decent portion, and the staff were attentive. The atmosphere was lively as it was in the middle of a food court in a shopping centre / New Street Station. The only negative was that there wasn't a restroom in the restaurant, but public toilets were apparently not too far away.

Perfect service every time. All staff members are extremely helpful, quick service times and food is always 10/10. Would definitely recommend regardless of the occasion.

Amazing staff especially ilse who very warm and welcoming

Very good staff, fast service.. Highly recommend.

I placed an order via Uber Eats. 20 minutes into the order, they cancelled it saying they didn't have time???? Seriously.... Then don't accept the order to begin with...

We sat down after a chaotic train journey, we were hungry. We noticed that the table next to us had abandoned their food and thought that wasn't very nice. But one bite into the twice fried chicken and I don't blame them for leaving their food. This was so bad.

Amazing service, quick delivery and amazing taste. Definitely recommend trying!

Diogo and edy made the chicken fried rice and the veg pad Thai noodles taste so good and the live cooking oh my god it is so good you should come hear 👍👍👍👍👍😁👍😁

I order Stirfry Oyster and it was absolutely delicious.

Oh, I love Thai Express! Their food is so flavorful and satisfying.

the only thing bad was that i wanted more spring rolls. also it’s on the second floor just in case your spending 20 minutes trying to find it, speaking from experience. food was an immense experience.

Had a train to catch so asked if they could do the food in 10 minutes which they did come out fresh hot and tasty as always always come here when working or visiting highly recommend

I loved the general Thai👌🏽. Thank you

Exceptional Thai food in central Birmingham, friendly chef, perfect for a quick meal before getting on a train

I've been visiting Thai Express every Saturday and usually have the chicken wings and Thai green curry. Amazing. But the customer service is so poor and shoddy. The staff are so miserable. But I try to ignore this as I love the food. Most recently, I went on Monday this week and oh my word, I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent customer service provided by Diago. Well done young man. Your management can learn a lot from you. Keep up the fabulous work, dazzling Diago.

Disappointed with my recent experience ordering takeaway compared to my previous experience of dining in. I ordered a takeaway today via Uber Eats. The order was supposed to take 45 minutes. It took an 1 hour 30 minutes to arrive. They didn't use proper takeaway containers. It arrived with sauce spilled everywhere. The sauce was salty and the rice was burnt. Was not good value for money.

The chicken was gassy!! Literally tasted like gas! The noodles were flavorless and the pudding were like mixing rice and plain yogurt that you can make at home! Very disappointing experience

I bit spicy but tasty! Friendly staff 👌😊

Delicious pad thai, I loved it 😋😊

The taste of the good was not good.

the food was very good and the service was excellent Thank you Diogo and Mário for the excellent sevice!

Greatest service ever! The food was amazing, freshly cooked. Will be back for sure! Thumbs for chefs Mario and Diogo for the excellent service 🙌🏾👌🏾

The food portions were small. I ordered sweet and sour chicken and they gave small portions of the chicken and more rice. How cheap is this place! It was no flavour at all. Deffo try Mrs Chews which is just opposite. They give bigger portions and the food is much better.

Quick service. Reasonable price and quantity. But not the best taste as Thai food. I don't know how authentic this restaurant is as 'Thai'.

Often a go to for me and my friends whether passing through town or getting food in. My go to is the Pad Thai which is definitely skewed to the western pallete but is always tasty and fresh with that lovely peanuty crunch. The portion sizes are great and the chicken is usually nice and tender making for a good comfort eat. My friend usually gets the Pad See Ew and she says it always hits the spot too. In terms of the staff - they have always been kind a courteous when I have been in person (but that hasn't been for a while now).

Great flavours. I've always wanted to try something of this sort that requires a spoon and form to eat 😁! This hits the spot on so many levels. However, do not get this if you are in a rush, unless you're ok with sipping out of a paper bowl. Would definitely return and try the other dishes. Facilities: Card payment: yes Toilets: no Wheelchair access: no Would I return: yes

Food is so good man, hasn’t changed since the last time I came here years ago. Flavour so perfect and so filling. If you shaved off even £1 off the menu items it’d actually be the best bargain for quality food place in grand central/Birmingham by a mile. Excellent 9/10 we move

Yes yes yes! New favourite! Food was amazing - bonus it’s halal too!

Noodles were good but the soup was very watery and was hot but not spicy and had no kick

Food was good and great customer service thanks to Edivaldo and the team 💯

Food was fantastic - tasty and really spicy - Staff were absolutely amazing - feeding a disabled old man in a wheelchair by hand inside the restaurant - so caring and patient - lovely to see

Lovely place to eat, customer service was great and the food was lovely.

First time eating here and wasn’t disappointed. Great staff great service, will definitely recommend. There was a slight mixup with my order but it was soon sorted.

It's a very nice place and the food is amazing. 5 ⭐️ & friendly staff. 100% worth it.

Right, hands down one of the best places I have gone to eat at. You will NOT be disappointed !!! Staff were so friendly and welcoming. A special thanks to Joblu for his great customer service.

My first time trying Thai food and it was delish. I came with a bunch of my friends from Spain. Thank you to Joblu for taking our order, he explain our Vegetarian and vegan options really well. Thanks to the chef Diogo for making the yummy food.
