The Pepper Tree in Lambeth

Alexa and Agata were amazing! So attentive and kind Amazing Thai which was yummy and spice. Food and service was amazing

Great lunch deal but even better staff! Will be going back with my partner and friends just because of how nice the waitress was (Aussie or Kiwi - sorry unsure!) deserves a raise!!

I love pepper tree so much. The food is so tasty and the fresh juices and the thai tea are a must. The staff here are so friendly and i come here all the time! Would defo recommend to family and friends :))

Great food and atmosphere, very friendly service. We had the dim sum sharer, squid and fish cakes, and a fish curry and duck massoman, all of which was really tasty, and the staff couldn’t have been friendlier. And reasonably priced too! Will definitely come back!

I always enjoy eating out front of a restaurant, on the sidewalk, if the weather allows. I enjoyed my Pad Thai, using chopsticks, with a Chang beer. I'm glad they served the red peppers on the side so you could control the heat. The ingredients were fresh, especially the sprouts on top.

Ideally located just off CC Station and a stone's throw away from the common. Very good set lunch menu with the most popular starters and mains listed. Food and drinks were served promptly. Michelin star service by Leonie who made our experience excellent. Thank you

We are regulars here. My partner is peruvian but is an avid cook who loves asian food with 10 years experience living in China with regular visits to Thailand (and other parts of Asia). We love this place. She says its the best pad thai she's ever had. It's completely unpretensious, very good value, and we've tried lots of different dishes. She much prefers it to the posher thai places in town, soho etc. I love the special fried rice, its simply perfect thai comfort food, perfectly balanced. For some reason the service does lack enthusiasm, we dont quite understand why and we can totally live with it for the food. It's prompt and efficient, but a slight sense that the customers are a risk to the business or to be viewed with a slight level of suspicion that needs to be overcome, and often cannot. I dont mark them down for this because the overall experience is so clearly five star. xx

The set lunch menu was tasty, arrived soon after ordering and was reasonable value for money, but the service was pretty terrible! The restaurant was quiet with fewer than 20 covers and 2 waiters. One was a bored looking girl who looked annoyed that I’d turned up and shrugged me towards a table, and the other a gormless looking teenager with very poor English who didn’t seem to know what his job was. It was 20 minutes before anyone took my order, and my drink was first forgotten, then incorrect. I had to take cutlery from another table because there was none where they sat me. The lady beside me waited 40 minutes for her food before they realised they hadn’t actually put her order through. I couldn’t get an itemised receipt because the machine was broken. No apology at any point. Clapham Common is a very popular spot for eating with lots of restaurants vying for business. The Pepper Tree really needs to do better than this if they want to stay open!

Pretty good food. Nice ambience and friendly service. A bit expensive but good location I guess. Pad Thai had too many bean sprouts and not enough chicken. Popular starter dish a bit heavily fried but quite nice.

I find it hard to believe this restaurant is allowed to serve food this bad for prices this extortionate. Warmed up tasteless dry chicken floating with watery aubergines in some excuse for a curry sauce. Soggy inane rice £4. I fear this was cooked by 12 year olds. Never again.

Their huge menu range was something that enticed us to dine at the Pepper Tree and it certainly didn’t disappoint. The food was lovely and came out quickly. I was driving so only had their fresh juices and they were really refreshing and went really well with our meals. Our waiter could tell we were indecisive with one of the juice options so they were nice enough to provide us with a sample (shot), which was a nice added touch and resulted in us ordering a round of those. Because of the time of day we went, there wasn’t many people and therefore we were able to have an in-depth catch up and wasn’t at all pressured to leave, which added to our dining experience. The food was great, the staff warm and friendly and it’s a stone throw away from where I live so I definitely will be back to try out something new on their fantastic food menu.

Amazing food and great atmosphere! We went on a Thursday and it was busy but we were able to enjoy our meal and not rushed out! Staff are lovely and friendly too.

We had last visited Pepper Tree at least five years ago. Although it had recently introduced a new menu it encompassed the usual run of soups, curries and stir-fries. Seating is on Wagamama-style wooden benches. The background music was unpleasant. The food was nothing special. Pork ribs were a little over spiced as well as being chewy. A duck massaman curry with peanuts and large slices of carrot reminded me how much better duck is with pineapples and lychees.

Wonderful experience and excellent service. Food was yummy and I will come again. Location was superb and can be reached by underground

Really nice place. great food and enough to take home in a doggy bag! Reasonably priced £50 for 2 starters mains and drinks

Visited with my sister and ordered a chicken main. Waited at least twenty mins after my starter to receive the dish and the chicken was uncooked, but what was more insulting is the chicken looked raw at first glance. I’ve never received such raw chicken in a restaurant before and I struggle to understand how this made it out of the kitchen. Sent the food back and waited 15 mins for it to be returned only to find it was raw again. Waitress was lovely and it obviously wasn’t her fault but there was zero accountability. I was told the chicken is pre marinated and this cooks it but chicken doesn’t work like that. I left the place really hungry and without eating a main dish. The dish was removed from the final bill and a ten percent discount was applied as an apology however a higher service charge was also applied. All round disappointing experience and would not recommend.

Love this place - the value and portions are amazing and the service is lovely. I always recommend for anyone in the area who wants a great meal.

Walked into the restaurant for a meal with a friend and was not disappointed. The Pepper Tree has lovely staff, amazing food and the value for money is unmatched. As if I couldn't love Thai enough!

Loved the food and the cocktails were amazing! Lovely service and everyone was so helpful and gave great recommendations!!!

really incredible food. Loved the cocktails especially. also recommend the dim sum here. overall, great experience, my friends loved it.

The food was so good and hearty, exactly what you want from a Thai restaurant. The Pad Thai does NOT disappoint with quick service and super friendly staff. Definitely worth the trip and I know I'll be back very soon!

The food was very good and the staff very friendly and attentive. The place is very cosy and is in a street surrounded by other restaurants and bars with a lot of atmosphere. It is also a very good opportunity to spend a different evening trying Thai cocktails, they have happy hour!

We visited the Pepper Tree Clapham for a friend’s birthday. From the minute we entered this cute restaurant we could not fault a thing. The owner was amazing with us she took care of us, the service we received completely changed our dining experience- just...

Amazing staff, welcoming and lovely ! Attention to the details, the food is good, but I think the staff in this place make a big difference ! Thank you 🙏

Good food but nothing special unfortunately. Not very good just good! Papaya salad average. Fried squid was quite soft. Pad Thai good!

Last weekend I was here with friends and we weren't disappointed. We casually choose the place because of the atmospher and we ended up having a lot of fun! The nibbles were great and we quite enjoed the sake. The star of the show is...

Sad, first time back after Covid and no lunch special, sort of understand they are trying to build business back but the food was no better than the old lunch special and cost so much more. Worse than that was someone cleaning all the time...

The service was very quick and attentive. The tables and facilities were also very clean. We came here on a Saturday afternoon and sat outside. We had the vegetarian dumplings dim sum starter, the massaman curry (vegan version) with rice side, and vegan drunken noodles...

The food arrived super quickly, and the green curry was delicious - really authentic Thai! Will be coming back for more.

I come here pretty regularly because its local. Went to make the most of eat out to help out and had a great time. There was about a 15 minute wait for a table, but the staff were working so hard and turning tables around...

Excellent meal and service !! Amazing Thai food here and extremely friendly staff, very reasonably priced too

Visited last night. Excellent and friendly service - the manager was accommodating with a brilliant sense of humour. Could not fault the food it was superb. Only thing I’d like to have had was our wine in a wine glass instead of a water glass...

Came here with some friends and had the most amazing food. Service was a little slow but the food was well worth the wait. Large portion sizes and good value for money. I'd recommend the red thai curry and massaman curry.

Very very good food. Love coming here. Been there for 3 years, get the drunken noodles and duck spring rolls

Great food! Will come again! 😎👌🏻 You get a delicious free shot if you do a review. Great staff fun fun fun fun fun

The biggest bowl of pork ball soup I ever did saw. Prawn crackers were grade A as well - crunchy and prawny, seems so simple but so effective.

Visited with my significant other on Saturday night. Despite me being a bit of a pain - moving tables, asking for chopstick lessons, the staff were top class. We were served by a combo of Laura, Yousef and Laurence. They were brilliant and not only...

This place it’s great if you want to eat a good authentic Thai food and receive a lovely and an attentive service. Me and my friends have been already a couple of times and never been disappointed. It’s very causal restaurant so don’t very about...

It's lovely and usually lively place at Clapham Common. The food is great and always fresh with great service and very good price for a quality food.Curry and noodles are great there.I am there every week as I love it. I would definitely recommend.For me...

Fantastic food and great ambiance would deffinatetly recommend for a casual dinner. Suitable for friends and for alike

Came here with some family friends and the ambience was very nice, and the value for money was great- especially for central clapham. Would 100% go back. Had Laura serving us and she was really informed and gave us good details for size portions etc

Amazing service and yummy food- never had a bad meal. This is my go-to restaurant locally and has been for the last decade I’ve lived nearby. LOVE the friendly and efficient staff. Perfect for families, with mates or some food on your own, and excellent...

Very quick service and delicious food! Laura was very attentive :) I have been to Pepper Tree numerous times and it is always good.

Great food. Had the Phad Thai Jay and would definitely reccomend! 2 for 1 cocktails before 7.30 and great atmosphere

Delicious food, good vibe, great happy hour for cocktails and thanks for the ice cream! Pad Thai flavoursome

Had a lovely Tuesday dinner for two here. The restaurant had a nice lively atmosphere (which is a good sign on a cold January early weeknight). Great food and friendly, speedy service from our lovely waitress Laura. Only downside is that it was a little...

Come here very frequently, consistently good service, consistently amazing food. Never had a bad meal. The Thai chilli chicken is a must. Keep up the good work!

Fab fab food and our waitress Laura was super helpful and attentive. Highly recommend this restaurant for a really good Thai in a relaxed atmosphere. Will definitely be back!

Came on a Sunday night and had a really nice meal - chicken satay to start and then the duck massaman curry. Both delicious, the service was great (thanks Laura) and lovely atmosphere. Will definitely be coming back.

Fabulous choice on the menu. Laura who served us lovely and the speed of service and food quality was excellent.

We regularly visit The Pepper Tree as the food is good, fresh and there is a good variety for pescatarians and the service is efficient. We were not disappointed with the food we chose.

Really delicious meals at reasonable prices. Friendly helpful staff, fun atmosphere. Busy for a Monday night which says much for the establishment. Thoroughly enjoyed our meal.

Delicious, authentic food, very friendly and helpful service and cool interior. Prices are really good for the quantity and quality of food. 10/10

Had a lovely meal with my friend kate and served by the wonderfully attentive Laura! Would recommend the red chicken curry - it’s my all time fave!! Cannot recommend enough!

My second visit to this lovely restaurant right next to the tube stop. Small and cozy, with a great vibe and really welcoming staff. We whiled away 4 hours here and never felt rushed. We tried 6 different cocktails between 2 of us as part...

I come here at least once a week and I don't get enough. Highly advisable, especially the food variety and Alexa s service. A must visit of you're in Clapham

Nice, informal and friendly. Laura was particularly attentive and helpful and the food is great. Will visit again soon.

Came here for a quick dinner on a long and stressful workday. My server was Alexa and she was so friendly and helpful!

Visited here with a friend on a quiet Monday evening - great atmosphere and lovely food all at a decent price! Been here multiple times and would definitely come again - thoroughly recommend!

Excellent food and friendly service, value for money. Would visit again. The messy noodles were delicious.

My favourite Tom Yum soup in town - I recommend The Pepper Tree if you want to have a chat with friends in a relaxed enviroment while having some tasty food.

Always go here. Quick food, good portion size and really well priced. Never feel rushed and great service

Really delicious food- great vibes! Alexa the waitress was lovely!! (Mojito comes with chilli flakes on the top if that’s your thing!!)

I was very impressed with the food and service provided at The Pepper Tree. There were eight of us and we ordered four different Thai curries, laksa and pad Thai and everything was very flavourful and delicious. The staff were really friendly and prompt and...

Ate here on Saturday as a party of two. We had starters and mains, all the portion sizes were very large and everything tasted absolutely delicious, and authentic. The most surprising thing was the price, which - at £9.95 for a pad Thai - are...

Me and the hubby frequently come here and the standard of the That cuisine is always reassuringly tasty and at such great prices too. But for me what it makes it even more special is the owner who is usually around on a Saturday when...

We've been going to the pepper tree for years now and never have been disappointed. usually ordering our standards, because why not? lol their coconut rice is the best I've ever had anywhere! can't fault with the chilli chicken either.

Really great food for a decent price. Super tasty as well. Came with some friends for dinner and really enjoyed ourselves.

Come here often and always enjoy great food and cocktails- usually have the pad Thai jay which is amazing. Definitely recommend!

Best Thai around! Super friendly staff, great hospitality and most importantly, the best food in the area :)

Delicious flavours, great warm friendly service. A happy customer. Good place to come with family or friends. Definitely recommend.

We live close by and often drop in to the pepper tree whenever we are in the mood for Thai, the pad Thai & duck massaman are particular favourites, always delicious washed down with a singha beer! The food is reasonably priced with a meal...

I had a really tasty meal here. Service was relaxed but extremely friendly and our host, Nina, was excellent. All the food was delicious, especially the grilled prawn skewers!

Fantastic food, lovely setting and Liam is fantastic! I will definitely be coming back! Restaurant is clean and the food is authentic, having eaten the red curry, it is as good as any I had in Thailand!

My girlfriend and I go there regularly as it's a very easy place to get a quick and tasty meal. And for a good price too!

Great quality, good value food and excellent service.... particularly from handsome Liam :) Fun place. Would recommend for gay groups and others.

The service from Claudio was excellent and the food was something to die dor. A must try...highly recommended

Liam was the best waiter by being so friendly, helpful and also thoughtful; it was my friend’s birthday and he surprised her with a birthday dessert at the end of the meal. But also, the food is delicious; I felt like I was actually in...

Thank you for making my friends birthday so special! The Red Thai curry is so yummy! Thank you very much

Great food. Great service - would recommend to anyone wanting a good Thai meal for a very reasonable price

Good food, nice staff, very welcoming and allowed us to bring a dog in. Will visit again, thank you very much.

Super red curry and so friendly. Very happy to accommodate my small dog as well which shows what a genuine establishment it is.

Serves great food, very quick service, and has lovely staff. The Pepper Tree is a firm favourite in Clapham!

Are there any other Thai restaurants in Clapham? Probably. Are they worth going to? Probably Not. The Pepper Tree is THE Clapham Thai Restaurant. Enough said.

Authentic Thai based in the heart of Clapham. If you’re looking for great Thai food, a cozy atmosphere and friendly staff this is the place to go! Our waiter, Liam, was particularly friendly and helpful with some specific dietary needs. We always have a great...

Been to the pepper tree lots and always get the great pad Thai. Staff always friendly, especially Liam! Will keep coming back!

Great dinner, food was really tasty! Staff were friendly and food came quickly. Thanks to Liam who served us!

Great, casual place for a bit of Thai food! Service has been exceptional, from holding the door to good conversation about the restaurant. Gladly come back ☺️

Very welcoming hosts, wonderful ambience. Food is delicious, some nice little changes to traditional dishes. Shame about the company.

Loved this meal, it was lovely. I ordered special fried rice. Staff, especially liam, were really nice and attentive.

I am a Thai food lover and I go to this place often. My favourite dish there is the pad thai. Good portion and very tasty. It’s a nice and cheap meal. The place is simple, with communal tables so you sit next to other...

Myself and my friend popped in for a last minute Thai after work. Service was quick, drinks came quickly and the food was fab! See you again soon I’m sure. :)

I saw my food at the counter and its been there for 5mins. the waiter/ manager just look at it while on their break. when it came its super dry so i asked the waiter to change it but what i got was super saucy...

Visited The Pepper Tree recently after giving it a miss for a couple of years and again was quite disappointed. The food whilst not bad is certainly not the best and just isn’t authentic and overpriced for what it is. It’s always really noisy and...

One of my favourite restaurants in Clapham. Fabulous food, fantastic service, great deals, absolutely recommend!
