We had an absolutely amazing time at Thai Shire. The food was incredible quality, flavours were fantastic and some very generous portion sizes, so great value for money too! Customer service was wonderful, we were visiting on the first night of our holiday and received some wonderful recommendations of places to visit on top of that. If I could rate it more than 5 stars I would!

6 tables. 1 efficient waitress with a full on mask and hand sanitizer stations all over the place. Menu has masses of choices that annoys me, especially when I’m hungry. Restaurant was cold, not really cold, though my legs and feet were chilly. Price was reasonable… food servings fair, quality ok and taste good, though salty in the end, vit dehydrating. All in all somehow definitely not a bad place, just lacking and especially when I was so excited from such a good review. I’m not hating on this place… just … mmm….. lacking somehow. Wish them best of luck.. Waitress said menu will be reduced to popular choices in January. Only 1 chef coz it’s easier to do it alone than work with others…. Yeah somehow this is all a bit glitchy from my point of view.. good luck ThaiShire…

Visited Thai Shire as it came highly recommended and had many great reviews. Surprisingly, the food was absolutely terrible. Prices have gone up (understandable in the current climate) and was hand written on the menu. The quality of the ingredients used was very poor. We have eaten in many Thai restaurants and the taste is not authentic. Surprised at all the glowing reviews. The only positive thing was the excellent service of the waitress. It was not worth a special journey.

We had high hopes for Thai Shire, not only because it had been recommended personally but we had read raving reviews on Trip Advisor and google. Unfortunately, it didn’t live up to expectations for us. The food smelt delicious when we picked it up but sadly a few minutes after we got it home and onto our plates, the food was cold. We also found the two curry’s we had ordered were so watery that there wasn’t much substance to them at all. Possibly the most concerning aspect of the take away is that both my partner and I ended up with upset stomachs. We were really disappointed as we were looking forward to a good take away and the staff were so friendly and helpful that we regret having to write this review. Maybe we were just the unlucky ones?

What a poor excuse for a take away. I realise that things have changed because of the current restrictions but the fact they haven't adapted to them is poor. You can only place an order my phone, which if you live 8 miles away and don't have a menu and there's no menu online because they dont have a Web page makes it difficult. When I did turn up was turned away and told to ring in an order for availability nearly 3hrs later. Won't go back and not worth its current star rating.

A family run restaurant with excellent food, relaxed atmosphere and great service.......even on a Sunday night where for various unforseen reasons we ended up the day after our wedding.....an excellent start to married life! P.S ignore the one star review below - they don't know what they are talking about - having travelled widely in Thailand/China/Malaysia this is just the kind of tasty, good value, food you find in similar neighbourhood restaurants in those countries; if you want supposedly "authentic" food go and pay "authentic" rip off prices in London!!

Booked a table and visited on a busy Saturday night. The food was amazing! We are both vegan and there was plenty to choose from; the waitress was super helpful in letting us know what would be suitable. The gluten duck starter with satay sauce was incredible and I will be thinking about it for ages. The minced veg in lettuce starter was also amazing, for main we had tofu with Penang sauce and sea spicy aubergine. It was all so good! I also had a great glass of Shiraz.Wish we were local as we would be regulars!

The is obviously a very popular little restaurant as every table was occupied and they have certainly optimised the space available. The set menu was very generous and tasty. The beef red curry was not quite as we expected and when we mentioned it to the waitress she instantly offered to replace it and recommended a chicken and cashew dish which was lovely.

Great Find We were staying nearby on a business trip so popped in on the off chance of getting a table. We were fortunate to get a table as it was very busy. The menu is extensive and decently priced. The service was prompt and and the food was DELICIOUS! I know one review has said the food isn’t authentic; I don’t know how they came to that opinion but if you want more spice or coconut then just ask. They will happily oblige. Rating it as a 1 star... really! Everything we ate was authentic and the service was great. Highly recommend a visit if your in the area. It may be worth booking to avoid disappointment.

Four of us ate here on a Friday evening and were pleased we had booked as the restaurant was very busy. The staff were welcoming and friendly and one in particular had an excellent sense of humour. The menu was quite varied and slightly confusing with Thai, Chinese and Malaysian cuisines. Prawn Crackers provided on arrival and then ordering of drinks and food very prompt. The food was all very tasty, well presented and served hot with plenty to share among all our party. Overall the price was very acceptable and I would certainly eat here again when in the area.

We have been here before, so were not dissapointed when taking friends for their first visit. We had 'leave it to the chef', saying which meats we did not eat. Lovely & fresh, hot straight from the pan. Able to take home anything we could not manage, which was lovely reheated the next day.

They might not do takeaway, but I honestly believe that it would be a waste not to eat in their fine establishment. The atmosphere and service is close to unbeatable in this part of Oxfordshire; and the menu manages to offer a great range- and each dish still feels like it could be the chef's best (something often considered impossible in restaurants). I spent my 21st birthday meal here, and the staff insisted on bringing me a cake free of charge! I'm still chuffed to bits over that one, let me tell you. God bless the Thai Shire.

My wife and I made a booking for 30 December and once again, we were not disappointed! We received great service and all the staff were lovely and welcoming. My wife has a gluten, dairy and egg restriction but it is never a problem here, as all of the food is cooked homemade to order and everything we have is presented wonderfully with all of the food full of flavour and delicious! The menu is varied and interesting and we really enjoy being able to try Cambodian cuisine. We live about 2 hours away and often stay in Oxford, and always will try to visit this restaurant when we can. We definitely recommend to others. Thank you for a lovely evening and we also enjoyed the little magic trick at the table!
