Thai Orchid in Scarborough

I was recommended Thai orchid by a friend and was so impressed! I had the massaman curry and mixed starter both were really nice will definitely be ordering again 👍

Really tasty food and lovely service.

Excellent food and service. Mixed starter and green curry were very nice. Great service

So tasty, loved the vegan Massaman tofu curry. Very friendly and lovely place. They even have real roses on the table!

Really tasty . Made such a nice change.

Fast delivery. The food is quality.

Really good food and great service, the mixed starter was delicious as was my main of a green curry, the only downside was that they had run out of sticky rice.

Great Thai food delivered on time

My girlies and I went to visit Scarborough for 2 days and we all decided to try Thai Orchid, They are close on Mondays and only open during dinner time. The food here was excellent, the atmosphere was cozy the service was also great, but the staff who took our orders hear my order for starter wrong. I originally asked for Spring Roll but when she serves us our starters she gave me a satay skewers, so I said that was not my order. She took it away, and came back shortly to repeat our orders for main. We all find her tone a bit off, like she sounded angry or something. We just all brushed it off as we just want to enjoy our time there, over all it was a great experience. I’ll be back again one day hopefully.

We had an absolutely delicious evening meal here - the food was all really flavourful and authentic. The service was friendly and warm despite being busy, and the atmosphere was lovely. Would highly recommend a visit.

Great family style restaurant at a great price. Service was welcoming and homely and the food was equally amazing. One of the best Thai restaurants I have ever been to!

My sister and I came here to eat and it was amazing!!! The service and food were really good + very pretty presentation.

This was the best Thai food I’ve eaten, and I’ve tried loads. We booked a table on the day, arrived , served and eaten within the hour. It was busy, the food was fresh hot and so tasted. We had 4 different meals between 3 of us, they were all delicious. I actually could not stop eating, even though I was full. It was just too tasty. I would highly recommend this lovely little hidden gem of a restaurant. The service was absolutely spot on, excellent all round. I would actually comeback to Scarborough just to eat in that restaurant again. July 2024 , Just going to add to this review as we have just visited again from a year ago last visit. We could not wait to dine here again and we were not disappointed, it truly was as tasted as last time, to the point we went back on our 3rd night of our holiday. I’m very surprised to see bad reviews about this place, myself and my daughter are extremely fussy & eat lots of Asian cuisine. This is still the best Thai food we’ve tasted. The staff are lovely accommodating when they can, it gets busy so do pre book. The food is so moorish , tastey, prices are more than generous. Absolutely top marks for Thai Orchid , all best and see you again soon.

Absolutely incredible food, beaming with flavour. Lovely atmosphere and great service. Could not recommend enough

Really tasty food. Great service and prices.

We really love this place, a great little restaurant with good food and very friendly and efficient staff. At a reasonable price too.

An absolute gem of a restaurant. Friendly staff, fast service, and most importantly, delicious food. If in Scarborough it's a must try. They do need to update their opening times as being open Sunday and Monday. We nearly missed this fabulous experience.

Terrible starters. 2xcurrys very watery and tasteless. Definitely not recommended

£10 for a tiny tub of Pad Thai Noodles is an absolute joke. Massive rip off and it wasn’t even that great! Avoid, or go hungry £10 less off.

The food is delicious. 1. Satay chicken with sticky rice is perfect match. 2. Tom Yum soap is great. 3. Pai Tai noodles is also great. The service is excellent.

Beautiful fresh tasting food, delivered by a lovely driver. If I could give 10 stars I would. Thankyou Thai Orchid

Food was super tasty was worth the money, definitely recommend

Lovely food and reasonably priced and service was very good.The staff were lovely and friendly and would definitely recommend a visit.

Have visited many thai restaurants and this one is the best. The food is delicious and the staff are friendly and helpful.

Considering the prices paid, the portions are not a true reflection and value for money for the charges. A massaman curry in a half full tub. The fries were a ridiculously small portion size and covered in grease. A thai chicken chow mein that had 6 bite size pieces of chicken within. Unfortunately, we have decided to not order from here again as I feel really short changed for what we’ve paid for

We enjoyed some great tasty food & a very decent bottle if red wine at very reasonably prices. Cannot fault the mixed starters & the several main dishes we had. Well presented & very tasty indeed. Not being all that familiar with some of the Thai dishes, (but learning quickly, I do know good food), but my brother who lives in a large city is, he said it was all very good indeed as Thai is his go to food!

Amazing food, lovely staff honestly one of the best places to eat

Staff very pleasant and attentive. Food excellent and good value. Dishes were foll of flavour, fragrant and not too spicy. Will return and recommend.

The Thai food was truly excellent - I had a Duck Spicy dish and a Noodle + the other dish was a Vegetable Oyster Sauce dish - 10/10 for both quality + lovely staff - Thank You ❤️

Excellent food at a reasonable price. It's a bit small.

Great food well tasty bit on the expensive side though

Don’t order the pad Thai, weird Curry here is above average,but remember to go with ‘less sweet, more spicy’

Beautiful food and really lovely staff!

arrived early and still hot, very tasty.

We were looking for something a little different and found this nice little place. The service was very good, we didn’t feel rushed, and the food was excellent, very tasty and not too hot. Not too expensive either.

Nice restaurant. Decent price and good taste as well.

No complaints about the quality of the food. Both starter soups on offer were tasty and spicy. The Thai curry's are also good. Sadly the Customer Service ethic there is appallingly bad. As a couple we were seated at a nice window table but shortly asked to move. They stated they had made an error and the table had been booked for 4 people. We were moved to a darker corner table. No party appeared and during our meal a couple arrived on spec and asked if they could have our window seat and were obliged. It made us feel like 2nd class citizens and ruined the whole eating out experience. It was clear that the reason for the move was to keep open a 4 seater table in case a party of 4 arrived but worse they then tried to make silly excuses that just made them look ridiculous. I live locally and have eaten there before but sadly never again. It was their own greed where they value maximising profit over Customer satisfaction that lost them this customer.

Very quick delivery! Food was lovely thankyou! Definitely order from them again!

What an absolute joke. 4.6?? No way. They say a Thai restaurant is only as good as its Pad Kra Pao. And this was not it. The only thing that this 'pad kra pao' got right was that it's spicy. Other than that it's an absolute joke. And for £11??? Rice not even included??? Yeah forget about it. I could get double the food which tastes twice as good for the same price at any other restaurant.

Delivery was bang on time and the driver was friendly. Food was hot, fresh and delicious with good portion sizes.

Last min booking with family and friends. 7 of us . All had a great meal and the staff were excellent 👌

Great food and friendly delivery man

A great little Thai restaurant service amazing food accompanied by brilliant service, and at reasonable prices

Very good food. Ample sized portion. Very tasty. Delivered on time.

Food was really good but ordered duck curry and received prawn curry.

The food was of good quality and authentic, the portions were ok except the rice. The rice portion was very small. The Pad Thai did not have an accompanying portion of crushed nuts which is usual. There were no prawn crackers which is also usual. However we did enjoy the meal and would order again.

Delicious, fresh ingredients. We really enjoyed it. Thank you 🙏🏻

Superb flavour lovely meal, could have done with a bit more meat as loads of sauce but was delicious anyway

Great food as always. Whether calling in for lunch or for an evening meal, you'd be hard pushed to find better. Definately one of my favourites. Thoroughly delicious. Sorry there are no pictures, the food smelt too good to wait!

Very nice food. We had Pad Thai which was delicious. Great service and friendly staff made for an enjoyable experience

Food cold, dumplings slimy, rice very dull, chicken dish overloaded with ginger. Altogether very unpleasant I’m afraid. Disappointed as I’d seen good reviews. Will not order again.

Lovely food-just the right amount not greasy and tasted fresh

Incredible Food, Friendly Service

Beautiful food and really polite staff

I will not use this restaurant again - it was over cooked, not tasty - I would have sent it back if I had been eating in the restaurant -

Everytime we visit Scarborough from Barnsley we make a be line for Thai orchid,fantastic food and staff.Never disappointed 👌👌👌

Really enjoyed the food here. Its a nice cosy restaurant with friendly service.

Super tasty fresh flavours. Excellent.

Good food at a reasonable price with an efficient ordering process and quick delivery time. What's not to love 🤣. Thank you.

Always good food and quick friendly delivery 👌

Probably the least authentic Thai food in Yorkshire! Pad Thai was similar to a supermarket pack flavor, absolutely unbalanced and I'm not sure why people would rate this place. Green curry was again missing the depth of flavour. It's what's called chi-Thai, a mix of Chinese takeaway and Thai food from a buffet. Also, make sure you ask if they have run out of anything before you order the drinks as once you are seated they proceeded to explain the have no sticky rice!! The main thing you need with Thai food. I should have gone to Tesco's

Delivery guy was very friendly. Food was yummy.

Outstanding, pad ga prao was lovely. Ask for it thai style for an extra kick.

Wonderful food and great service They even let our well behaved dog sit with us. Top marks fro me.

Our first visit to Thai Orchid as we don't live locally. What a lovely meal we've just had. Service was prompt, efficient & very friendly & the food was delicious. Hope to return sometime & we can certainly recommend this lovely restaurant.

Every dish, every vegetable cooked with care, just right.

Lovely menu, Thai curry. Great prawn crackers. Cash only.... extra seating upstairs

Excellent food. Reasonably priced. Good service. Was quiet when we went (Friday 6pm)

Beautiful food, great service at a very reasonable price. You should be charging more for the quality of your food. Keep up the great work 👌

This place is lovely. One of the best Thai food places I’ve been to.

The food was very good, the portions were big and delicious! However we found it to be overpriced for Scarborough.

A hidden gem.The food was out of this world very fresh and tasty served with a smile.I would recommend it to anyone wanting Thai food around Scarborough

Very poor experience... poor choice. Half of menu unavailable and expensive for quality!

Very nice thai place in town - glad to find this gem. We sat upstairs and it was quiet and tastefully decorated. The Masamman was good, and the food came quickly. Good ambience and setting, conveniently located right in the centre of everything. Would highly recommend.

Was looking forward to a Thai experience...drinks and food on menu were not available....felt we were rushed...and was expensive....would not recommend....

Always early delivery and always delicious. If you want quality food quick,then Thai Orchid is the place to go :)

The food wasn't great. Not very good value for money. Tiny portions

Fantastic. Found this while working in Scarborough for several days. Great food at reasonable price. Staff are friendly, service is very good. We ended up going back multiple nights as it was a lot cheaper and better quality than the hotels.

Booked a table for two. Excellent service. Very friendly. Food was delicious. Would definitely recommend and return.

Always amazing food and delivered fast.

For £11 for half a small box of prawns and veg is absolutely shocking. I’ve never ordered a pad tai and it come without noodles. Even without the noodles the boxes should have contained a much larger portion for the price. Rang to ask and she was very rude on the phone. I’d suggest popping something on to state all pads are to have noodles purchased separately. Won’t be ordering again

Reviewed as a take out. Delicious food, best Thai food I’ve had. Highly recommend

The food is absolutely amazing 100%. But customer service is 0.00%. I went in with my family af african background, the waitress merissa straight away told me I can't order starters because it takes a while to cook. So we only ordered main meal. This was at 8pm. They close at 10pm. The order placed was for 4 kids 2 adults. I and my sister (the adults) had a full portion of king prawn fried rice, and then my kids had one scoop of fried rice on their plates. I had to ask why my kids food was so small, the waitress said sorry it was a mistake, they will bring more. So she went and brought the chef (a lady) and the chef said yes she can see that the portions were very small so she said she will make it half price for the kids. I said no, I'd prefer full price with the correct portion. So she brought one more plate which I shared on my kids plate. Then 4 white males walked in, and they were allowed to order starters etc. For us, no starters or deserts. But it's ok for others to. The kitchen can provide. The waitress kept going up to them asking if they were ok and if they wanted anything else, again walked pass us even when we tried speak to her to get a take away bowl we wanted for our srpring rolls. I and my family felt very unwanted there. Basically it seemed as if they wanted to eat quick and leave. That's why we were not allowed to order what we wanted. I had travelled all the way from London to spend time in Scarborough and thus restaurant was recommended for their "amazing" food. Which without a doubt the food was out of this world, butthe way I was treated! The racism was very obvious. I will never recommend such a place. The atmosphere should be the same as the food. This place is a no go area. If you want to enjoy the foods from here, please order online before 9pm. But do not go in.

Excellent fresh thai food! Seated upstairs in this centrally located restaurant. Attentive staff, varied menu options very reasonably priced. Highly recommend the green thai curry - delicious!

Enjoyed the food excellent The staff go out there way to please The restaurant is nice and cosy
