Yummy and good selection for veggies!!!!

The food was delicious, and the service was excellent, especially from Sine. She was very nice and had a bright, friendly smile.

Had an amazing experience at Thai Orchid! The Thai BBQ was so good and authentic flavours. A big thanks to Sai for the warm service, and Palm the kitchen team for preparing such fantastic food. Will definitely be back!

Very delicious, from Thai people together.

Lunch menu is great value for money. Best Thai food I’ve had, really attentive staff.

Delicious food, grilled pork is very good 👍👍👍

The grilled pork is very delicious. The Thai tea is delicious. The staff are lovely. After eating, I miss Thailand.😭

The food is delicious and the staff is very friendly and the service is great.We will come back again soon ♥️

The food very delicious and the staff is very friendly.we will come back again x

We stopped in for dinner while visiting from out of town. We had the Pad Khing and Pad Kee Mao. The food was fresh and delicious. We were so pleased, in fact, that we stopped in again on our way out of town to get takeaway meals for when we get home, up North. We will certainly come again the next time we are in town!

My wife and I had lunch here on valentine's day, and I must say the food is exceptional - good size portions too, we really felt comfortable and relaxed, set in lovely surroundings. The service is very good 5 star , we will definitely be going back again.

Lovely food. Great hospitality. On my list to go again.

Amazing authentic Thai food! Good flavours and portions. Very tasty Thai ice milk tea, I can easily binge 2 glasses! It's Thai tea done right, best Thai restaurant in Kent! Highly recommended Pad Kee Mao - very spicy, perfect for spicy lovers!

Great food and lovely service from Well! Thanks!

A hidden gem in Whitstable! This Thai BBQ spot offers fresh ingredients, and flavorful sauce. The grill-at-your-table experience makes it fun and interactive. Perfect for cozy meals with friends and family!!👍🏻 Ps. The staff named Well provided super excellent and impressive service.

Highly recommend Moo krata for outstanding authentic experience same as Thailand!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is hands down the best Thai restaurant I’ve ever been to in the UK! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed by a warm and cozy atmosphere that made us feel right at home. The service was friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. Now, let’s talk about the food—absolutely phenomenal! Every dish was packed with authentic Thai flavors, perfectly balanced, and cooked to perfection. The ingredients were clearly fresh, and the presentation was beautiful. Everything was so delicious that we completely forgot to take any pictures! We literally finished every single bite on the table. 😂 If you’re craving high-quality Thai food, this place is an absolute must-visit. I can’t wait to come back!

Thai Orchid Whitstable is a fantastic spot for authentic Thai cuisine, offering delicious food, excellent service, and a cozy atmosphere. I tried their lunch set, which included a mixed starter, red curry beef, and fried noodles. The mixed starter was a great way to sample different flavors, with crispy spring rolls, tender satay, and flavorful shrimp toast. The red curry beef was rich, creamy, and perfectly spiced, while the fried noodles were fragrant and well-balanced. I also tried their sea bass—perfectly cooked, with a crispy exterior and tender, juicy meat. It was fresh and full of flavor. For drinks, I had the Thai milk tea. It was refreshing, with the milk tea being creamy and slightly sweet. Beyond the food, the service was exceptional—friendly, attentive, and efficient. The cozy environment made the dining experience even more enjoyable. Overall, Thai Orchid Whitstable is a must-visit for Thai food lovers. Highly recommended!

Good staff, good restaurant, and good food

Very nice food and service , we will be back

Great atmosphere, fast service, and delicious food—highly recommended!

I will come back again. Good taste, good service

Restaurant to busy, one toilet for males, one for females, considering the amount of diners, not adequate. Restaurant was cold, food was bland, menu confusing. Service was manic. Will not be returning.

I don't know how this Restaurant received such great reviews, as we dined here this evening 8.2.25. Service was manic,menu was confusing. We had the set meal, plates were cold, Restaurant was cold, food not much warmer. Dessert of the day was one scoop of ice cream. Very disappointed and wouldn't return.

At last a very good Thai in Whitstable.

The real Thai flavor in the UK, I recommend this place. For the drink highly recommend trying Thai Mike tea.

Beautiful decor lovely service and staff and delicious food 10 out of 10

Came with friends to have the mookata set. We came as 7 people and it was enough for all of us! Really enjoyed it!!

Great Thai Hot Pot! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A friend recommended Thai Orchid, and it did not disappoint! The Thai hot pot was delicious—the broth was rich, and the ingredients were fresh. The staff was friendly and attentive, and the restaurant had a nice, cozy atmosphere. Highly recommend, and we’ll definitely be back!

The restaurant environment is very nice, the waiter service is attentive, the Thai barbecue is delicious, highly recommended!

Great food at excellent value for money. Staff friendly and helpful

Very delicious food, and the music atmosphere are fantastic.

Took my girlfriend here last week and I’m not kidding when I say this is one of the best Thai restaurants I’ve been to. Food was delicious, waiting staff were very friendly and the atmosphere was great. Would certainly recommend to anyone looking for a good date night. Thai green curry was the best Thai green curry I’ve ever had no joke. Thanks guys

The food is SO good and the staff are really, really friendly. Can’t wait to come back. 😋

yummy food, had a great time, super nice workers! Thai milk tea super good!!😆

Honest review. for me its a poor, terrible is too harsh. Been before & was okay but a slow service previously. But always willing to give a place another go. Not much change, mainly the slow, slow service. Wasn't even full. 20 minutes to get a drink, 50 minutes for starters to arrive, main meal want to long after but even so there really needs to more attentive, realistic service times. Why do they put out nice hot plates ages before getting your food, stone cold for when it arrives. Food was at an okay standard, have tasted much better Thai food at lower prices. The quantity & quality of the chicken was not good. The green curry lacked this & was mostly sauce. I had to ask twice for the bill which finalized a few things for me. I wasn't too impressed upon paying being ask to add a tip. No thank you, explaining the reason. Disappointing, no control on the floor staff wise & over priced.

Brilliant atmosphere, lovely staff and an all round pleasant experience. The workers were kind and attentive, giving us all the attention we needed without having to ask. They noticed me opening a card from a family member and, without us needing to mention, brought their own card out for me, a very special experience for my family and I, will visit again.

here for the Thai BBQ and it was amazing. I would give the soup and the dipping sauce 100% Thank you Well for the wonderful services

The Thai BBQ restaurant was fantastic! The food was authentic, full of flavour, and the grilled meats were perfectly cooked. Special thanks to Well, who provided outstanding service with a warm smile.

Good service, nice atmosphere and great place to have Thai authentic Moo Ka Ta here 💯

Cozy restaurant with good food and service. Well really helpful. Love the veggie platter with delicious sweet chili sauce. Best dessert is mango sticky rice

Excellent food for good price and the service was great- we were served by Well and she was lovely - great evening! Xxxx

I opted for the set menu, which included a platter for the starter, followed by Pad Krapow Beef (Stir-fried beef with holy basil) and a side of rice. I also noticed they offer moo-ka-ta, a Thai-style BBQ that looks really delicious. Unfortunately, since I’m dining alone, I’m unsure I could finish the whole set. They’ve mentioned that it’s best to book in advance for it as well. Anyway, the restaurant has lovely, well-decorated, and staff are friendly as well.

Love this thai restaurant. The food is delicious, and I've been to a few Thai restaurants. The staff are so polite and courteous, especially Karamine, who always makes you feel so welcome

We have had some excellent meals here in the past. However, the recent takeaway we ordered was mostly inedible. The green curry was bland, sludge colour and full of soggy vegetables - none of the usual fragrance and spice. The tofu pad thai had a strange odour. The tofu was stale and completely inedible. The starters, however, were delicious. On complaining, we were offered a replacement order another time. We arranged this via email only for the order not to arrive! No explanation or apology. Perhaps (hopefully) it was a temporary chef and normal service will resume.

A great thai and the only good place in whitstable to get some alternative Asian food

Thanks so much to the team here, they were very accommodating with two young children in our group, helping us arranging high chairs and modifying the kids menu to not include meat and unsalted food. Very thoughtful. Set lunch menu very good value for money and good options for veggies and vegans!

Delicious food as always, and delivered promptly - thank you!

Delicious food and beautiful inside the restaurant

Ordered 2 mains and 2 sides last minute on NYE- Food was freshly cooked and HOT! Delicious

Great food, really liked the satay - tasty and moist, with a great sauce. Kap kum krab! Dog friendly and graciously managed to accommodate us without booking. Love to see mango sticky rice on the menu.

Very good atmosphere, good service, exotic starter and main meal, reasonable price.

I recently had the pleasure of dining here, and I must say, it was nothing short of exceptional! From the moment I walked through the door, I was welcomed by a warm, inviting atmosphere that set the tone for what would turn out to be an unforgettable dining experience.

Really nice atmosphere with good music. Fast service and quality foods.

Great lunch menu, good value for money, lovely staff. The ambiance is cozy yet elegant, with a perfect blend of traditional Thai decor and modern touches. The soft lighting and charming wooden accents create a comfortable and intimate setting, ideal for both casual meals and special occasions. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu.

Starters are delicious. The green curry for main was yummy! Consistency was perfect and the dish was very fragrant. The staff are very welcoming as well!!

I often find food to be overrated in Whitstable frankly, so don't usually set my hopes too high for a takeaway here. This however was an absolute gem, the range of flavours across the dishes was wonderful to experience and it has firmly placed itself as my favourite establishment for food here. Will have to go back to eat in sometime (although my family can already vouch for this as they went without me before!)

Wow, the food is delicious... The service is very nice and the decor is beautiful. I definitely recommend it.

We really enjoyed our dinner here. The food was delicious and tasted really fresh. The portion sizes were really good too and it was amazing value. We would definitely visit again.

Very tasty and authentic thai food. Great service and accommodating to dogs. Very good milk tea

Very good and authentic Thai food. Love how spicy the food could be.

Excellent service and authentic Thai food. A wonderful dining experience. Must eat while in Whitstable

An enjoyable meal. Very delicious food and beautiful environment make me happy. There are many dishes to choose from, which are suitable for enjoying with family and friends.

A lovely restaurant with nice food and decorations. The lighting and table give me a warm welcoming vibe. Food is great, love the mixed starter in the lunch menu.

authentic food, lovely staff. would be back again😇😇😇

The food was delicious thank you

Mookrata was very delicious and authentic. Staffs were also really nice. Very recommended👍🏻

Grilled pork is very delicious. 💖🫶🏻

We ordered a takeaway for delivery from here last night and can quite honestly say it’s some of the best Thai food I’ve ever eaten even in Thailand! We had a mixture of dishes; all absolutely delicious. The sauces a little runny but soaked up with fantastic sticky rice! All delivered to our door, hot and in good time. Very very impressed, if I lived locally I’d be using this restaurant very regularly. Well done Thai Orchid, 4 very happy customers xx

Great food, fast and friendly delivery.

Very authentic Thai restaurant! Delicious and service was very fast and friendly

Delivery was late and the mixed starter was cold - really disappointed as usually very good

Most ethnic restaurants are very similar, with common mrnu items whether they are Indian, Chinese, or Thai. What makes the good ones stand out from the crowd are quality ingredients, expert cooking, efficient service and value for money. The Thai Orchid scores on all of these criteria. Much enjoyed and highly rrcommended.

Ordered for delivery, breaded prawn starter was ok, pad Thai was greasy and tasted like a bad microwave meal, beef Sam Rot was chewy poor quality beef. Probably the worst takeaway I have ever had, possibly worst meal in general.

Food was really greasy and overcooked and the duck spring rolls lacked any real substance

The doorbell doesn't work but I was texted when the order was left at the door. The food was still hot and delicious. Will definitely order again.

Wow. All the time we have been visiting whitstable why have we never been to this lovely gem. From the minute you walk in the atmosphere is warm The staff are so lovely friendly. The food is amazing. Very authentic nice spice. Certainly isn’t overpriced. Most definitely if you want a proper Thai meal please go. Thank you. We really loved it and will definitely go again.

lovely food and lovely staff. Everything Reasonably priced will be returning.

Amazing restaurant joyful decor warm welcome fabulous staff excellent food reasonable prices Lunchtime special wonderful great portions

Lively pretty relaxed restaurant 😎 Beautiful tasty food with great members of staff. Kind, helpful, attentive, just lovely ❤️ Well worth a visit if you like Thai Food 💕

The ambient is really nice and cosy. Reminded us of our time in Bangkok. The service is excellent, food prices are reasonable, and the food taste authentic. Definitely recommended!

Always delicious - eat in or take away! Amazing massaman curry, pad thai, tempura vegetables and breaded prawns! All delicious, always hot on delivery and great service! A winner every time

My favorite Thai restaurant in England! Reminds me of the best Thai food we had in Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and Samui. Especially love the massaman curry and pad Thai! We loved it so much at lunch that we came back for dinner.

Amazing service for my uncle’s birthday today. Food is outstanding and will be back 100% thank you everyone for making it so special.

The food is very good. Delicious and dipping sauce so good

Thai real authentic BBQ in Whitstable. Recommend for everyone who wants to try Thai foods.

At Thai Orchid in Whitstable, the Red Curry, Green Curry, and starter platter are among the standout offerings that showcase the restaurant’s commitment to authentic Thai flavors. The Red Curry is a beautifully balanced dish, offering a combination of spice and richness from the creamy coconut milk and red chili paste. It’s brimming with tender chicken or beef, bamboo shoots, and Thai herbs that blend seamlessly, creating a bold, comforting flavor that’s both spicy and slightly sweet. In contrast, the Green Curry offers a milder, more aromatic experience, with fresh green chilies and Thai basil providing a lighter yet deeply flavorful profile. The creamy coconut milk ties everything together, with soft vegetables and protein choices absorbing the delicate flavors. Both curries are served with a customizable spice level, allowing diners to adjust the heat to their preference. The starter platter is the perfect way to begin the meal, offering a delightful variety of appetizers that capture the essence of Thai street food. The platter includes crispy spring rolls, flavorful chicken satay skewers with a rich peanut sauce, golden prawn toasts, and crunchy vegetable tempura. Each bite is packed with flavor, complemented by a variety of dipping sauces, from sweet chili to tangy tamarind, enhancing the already bold and savory elements of each dish. Together, these dishes form a satisfying introduction to Thai Orchid’s culinary offerings, providing a true taste of Thailand that feels both familiar and exciting for any palate.

Highly recommended for everyone!!!! 10/10🤍🤍🤍

The food is absolutely delicious, we were in on a busy Saturday so service was a little bit slow but the team were so lovely.

Delicious food. Very good attention

Very good food specially the sauce of the barbecue

Best somtam!!! Moo ka ta is also very recommended.

I would like to recommend that Thai people come and try supporting Thai people. Good atmosphere, delicious food, just like eating at home.

Marvelous food, really tasty, everything we ordered for takeaway Plus, luckily they have mango sticky rice.....mmmm.....

Prices have really gone up lately. Food is so good, but not as affordable anymore.
