Thai River Kwai in Rotherham

Lovely place tucked away down a secret street in the middle of town. Genuinely gorgeous staff who made the experience wonderful

Came across this place by chance and I'm so glad we did! Ordered takeaway and it was gorgeous. I collected it, the staff are very friendly. I think we'll be making a visit for a sit down meal soon. Portions are big and well worth the money. Definitely recommend!

Absolutely amazing service, and the food was absolutely outstanding! I can’t recommend this place enough enough ❤️

Tradition thai style food, delicious!

This place is so bad I'm being generous awarding it 1 star. The prawn crackers were stale, the 2 vegetarian dishes my party ordered had egg on them as a substitute for the tofu they asked for. The beef red curry had massive chunks of inedible gristle in it and whatever was in the seafood dish wouldn't even be found in the river Don let alone an ocean. Speed of service was awful as it took over 2 hours on a Saturday afternoon to get the meal completed and there was only 1 other couple in. I should have known it was going to be bad when I saw the quality of the menus as they look like something a 5 year old knocked together. Avoid at all costs.

Very nice food and we had the restaurant to ourselves for the first 45minutes (early meal). Staff were attentive and helpful. Prices were good and the food very tasty and well presented.

Not sure why here has such good reviews. Some of the worst Thai food we've ever eaten and way overpriced- can definitely tell things were microwaved and overcooked/mushy. Fish cakes and prawn crackers were stale. Was gutted- avoid.

The best Thai restaurant you could go to. Absolutely delicious food and excellent service, the owners and staff are always incredibly lovely and welcoming. Couldn’t recommend more!!

Amazing food and the staff are super kind

After 19 years of visiting Thailand we've finally found a Thai restaurant that cooks Thai food perfectly...has to be the best in uk ! Flavours, aromas its like sitting in your favourate place in Thailand. Cant wait to fetch friends to experiance Thai cuisine at it best !!

Such considerate Thai food and excellent service. I will definitely go there again and recommend it to my friends. Such considerate Thai food and excellent service. I will definitely go there again and recommend it to my friends.

Absolute hidden gem of a place. We went here last night. The staff are lovely, very friendly and polite. Large comfortable chairs to sit in ....and the FOOD ...omg ....literally THE BEST authentic Thai food we have had that's not been actually in Thailand....we had chicken satay , deep fried squid in chilli and salt the tom kha goong with king prawns whoch were huge and plenty of them and som tam salad with prawns again ...all piping hot and full of flavour ....delicious ...huge portions highly recommend we will be back ...thank you so much

Staff very helpful and friendly. Food is awesome with so many nice flavours. If you can't eat it all, they box it up so you can take it home. All the food is cooked fresh so you might be waiting a while. When the food arrives it keeps coming and coming, you won't leave feeling hungry 😋

My new favourite Thai restaurant! I've visited Thailand before and this place took me right back! Really nice food and lovely staff! I definitely will be visiting more in the future :)

Absolutely amazing, I went yesterday and honestly the greatest all you can eat service I've had in a long time. Well worth the price with the plates that they bring to you on top of the buffet.

Absolutely stunning food, highly recommend and can't wait to go back👌

After returning from Thailand, we searched for a long time to find food that tastes authentic, and we finally found it at River Kwai.

Arrived at 3 o'clock, it was very quiet, we had 2 x starters satay chicken and spring rolls, had been told the mains was large so just ordered, Thai chicken yellow curry , it was huge enough for 2 people, very well presented and I took a doggy bay home ,would highly recommended this venue, but the only complaint I could give was that they mains was brought out too quick ,we was still eating our starters , but they sorted it out ,

Absolutely brilliant! We went for the buffet option, the food was all top quality and authentic (especially the sticky pork and the curries) and quite literally did not stop coming. Excellent value for money. The staff, owner and chef were all so friendly and there was a really relaxed atmosphere about the place. Would visit again in a heartbeat.

We have had a couple of great takeaways from here before the reasteraunt was open. But last night finally got to try the reasteraunt. And we was definitely not disappointed. Had the buffet, the food was amazing, the amount of food we got on the starters was unbelievable. The buffet had plenty of wonderful dishes. And the staff were so nice, we had a good laugh with the waitresses, the chef came downstairs and explained the dishes to us. We were stuffed but they insisted we take some cake and buffet home with us. There was no rushing, we all had a great night, thank you.

Gorgeous food. Everything was delicious. Portions were huge! We like spicy food and it was on the hot side so be careful if you aren't used to heat.

It's soo nice and lodes off food me and 3 people got lodes od food and it was cheep just short of 45 ponds definitely come here again 5 star

Freshly cooked Thai food. Staff lovely. Definitely recommend

It was brilliant and lovely. The staff was do friendly and kind. The food was out. If this would, I was amazing. How much food was given for the price? If you were there, you would not level

Best Thai food I’ve ever had. The owner Tou couldn’t have been friendlier or more welcoming. Absolutely worth going🌟

A genuine error was made on our booking: the management have been fantastic in compensating for the error. Brilliant food. Will be back.

Just had tom yum soup pork spicy its the best iv ever had and the portions size was huge I highly recommend this fantastic restaurant

Best vegan curry I've ever eaten !

Located behind Red Lion pub. Nice little Thai restaurant hidden away. Excellent food. Very friendly staff. Started doing a buffet style now so you can try any dish.

What an amazing find, the food is great and the service even better. So refreshing to have people serving you that actually love and enjoy what they doing. The owner is the chef and she's around talking to people and taking orders as well as preparing the food. All the staff is amazing and food is very reasonable priced 💪☺️

I just share my honest review..... Whenever u would like to taste Thai Real taste then this is the restaurant i can recommended and you won't regret it.... for me food 10 out of 10.

We have trying to find a good Thai restaurant since our previous favourite closed....and tonight we found it. Our first visit was on buffet night and the number of dishes on offer was incredible as was the taste of those I managed to sample. Obviously too many on offer so will need to go back and try some more. The hospitality was superb. We felt very welcome and well looked after. Will be going back soon and spreading the word amongst friends for them to visit too.

Amazing food amazing service everything is amazing at Thai river Kwai Buffett is so good value for money and offers really good quality food and deserts with a wide range of different dishes available for a great price

I went with my daughter and we had a lovely time. My daughter had beef pad Thai, I had a seafood broth with noodles (can't remember the name). Both meals tasted amazing! The owners and staff were very welcoming and friendly. Will definitely be back again, thank you.

Most authentic Thai food in the area. Amazing flavours. Huge portions with fair prices.

It’s all about the food. Yes the prices may at first seem a bit higher than most, but the culinary delights this place has to offer are exceptional. Not just the quality but the quantity, presentation and extra attention to authenticity are top notch. Second time we’ve had a takeaway and this is the only Thai we will be visiting now. I’ve been to Thailand a few times and favour this cuisine, which River Kwai deliver. It’s cash or bank transfer only so go prepared. Extensive menu, can’t wait to work through it. Red sticky pork amazing. Green curry as good as I’ve had. Fish cakes a must.

Ordered takeaway for a party of 12 (25th wedding aniversary) staff excellent and friendly, food superb but some guests found some dishes a little hot. Especially liked were the pad thai. Thanks a lot see you again soon maybe for an evening in.

What an amazing place, the food is just amazing came back for a second night

Absolutely awesome food. Can’t recommend highly enough. 👍🏻

arrived 2pm on wednesday, we were the only customers. the owner was the chef and very friendly. the meals were tasty. the papaya salad was good. chicken satay was ok with plenty of salad and pickles. the seafood dishes was come with four king prawns.

Wonderful place, best Thai food i have ever tasted and i have tasted a lot. This is a must visit. It is amazing, do not take my word for it, try it, you will not be disappointed

I love the place is very pretty and the food was very delicious😌🫶

Just walked past this and thought ooo ill have a look what it's like and wow. The co owner literally dragged me and the missus in to have some freebe food and by dog it's the best I've tasted. This is my new go to thai restaurant 😋 Update: went in today for a bought meal, and omfg, the big started is amazing and it's more than enough for 4 people or even 5. The thai green chicken curry Is the best iv ever tasted and I have eaten at a few thai restaurants, the sticky belly pork is on point. Everything was so flavourful, fresh and fulfilling. Staff are very attentive and accomodating. The only minor complaint which really isn't a complaint. They served the mains while we was eating our starters. But to top it off they was more than happy to carton up the food that was left to take home. Where even cold was tasty 😋. Can't wait for the all you can eat buffet to be added to the experience. Keep up the amazing work guys.

The restaurant is beautiful and the food is amazing, although huge portions! #thaimasterchef The staff could do with uniforms to be more professional, all were dressed very casual, Nike jumpers etc. We will return!!

Amazing food. Generous portions. Highly recommend!

Absolute 10/10. Restaurant quality food. Try it now, you won’t regret it! The flavours of each dish were absolutely unreal. Ordered quite a lot as wasn’t too sure what I’d like (not had much Thai food) and have enough to feed a small army left for tomorrow. Really nice guy who delivered Rich, who said they are opening a restaurant in Rotherham very soon - I’m not surprised with the quality of the food they are serving up! Wishing you every success, I’ll be sure to visit!

Definitely the best takeaway you can get in the area! We’ve ordered many times and every single time the food was absolutely delicious! Portion size is extremely generous and service is impeccable 😊

Ordered £36 of food got a big box about £50 worth gave lots of free stuff, drinks and snacks. Pad kra pow was very nice.

The food was amazing so taste-full and flavoursome. The portions were huge and piping hot, we will 100% be back. We even got some goodies with our order. superb food and people! Thank you
