Zen Thai Gourmet Thai Cuisine in Sedgemoor

We got a very tasty takeaway from here whilst we were staying on holiday. Staff were very friendly and the restaurant also looked nice to eat in.

Our server nic was very friendly, as was all the staff. The food was outstanding, very lovely restaurant, this is our 5th visit and will keep coming back.

Great food served (especially the Pad Thai). Enjoyed the Thai cuisine and loved the decor. Will come back again if we are in Cheddar.

Lovely decor, very welcoming staff and delicious food and lots of choices. Will definitely return! This could be my new restaurant of choice! Thanks!

Researched via TA and loved all the items we ordered. Very fresh and tasty, staff were amazing. Could eat nowhere near all of it. Would recommend to anyone.

Great athmosphere .Friendly staff and the food was wonderful and good value.The restaurant gets very busy so its advisable to book in advance.

Excellent,enjoyed a wonderful meal and brilliant service, can’t recommend enough and it’s local to us , awesome. Fresh Thai flavours prawns to die for

What an amazing Thai restaurant. The food was outstanding and excellent service. It was a slightly reduced menu than advertised on their website but this was due to staff shortages. But that did nothing to detract from the deliciousness of the food. Highly recommended.

Excellent food and service to match as always. This popular restaurant serves the best Thai dishes you will enjoy outside of Thailand without a doubt.

Great meal at Zen Thai! We have had takeaway before but never sat in to eat and it was even better, it had a really lovely cosy feel. We had the Penang curry , satay chicken, coconut rice and papaya salad- what a combo!! Especially the papaya salad (som tam) , was absolutely delicious. We had coconut ice cream for dessert which was the perfect cooling , light follow up. Friendly and attentive waiting staff too (a young man and woman) and great value!

Amazing!! Beautiful food, excellent service and nice wine. Would highly recommend. We had the Panang curry, paid Thai and mixed starters.

Quite simply fantastic. The food was out of this world, with a first class service. The decor is stunning and Mrs Kingston-Fox loved her glass (or three) of wine 🍷

Yet again another fantastic meal… highly recommend the duck tamarind and orange chicken…… great restaurant, excellent service and as always a great friendly welcome from Spencer and Pear. Definitely one of the best restaurants around, but do try and book in advance if you are coming to the area .

We were a large family group visiting Somerset from London and this was a wonderful surprise - finding such delicious and authentic Thai food in Cheddar. Service was excellent and the atmosphere warm and inviting. A must visit if you are in the area.

We are lucky enough to live locally which was why we tried this restaurant in the first instance... BUT Oh my this restaurant is worth a long drive to visit. They pride themselves on using the best Thai indgredients, the meals we have eaten have all been amazing! We were relatively new to Thai cuisine, Liam who served us was outstanding at guiding us through the menu and helping us combine dishes that completmented each other for the best allround experience. The food was out of this world, the service was exceptional. Worth booking a table to ensure availability as you wouldn't want to miss out!

We wanted to go somewhere special for our anniversary, and we weren't disappointed! The service was friendly and excellent and everything we had was fantastic. Spring rolls and crab rangoon to start, with jungle curry and Panang curry for mains. We will definitely be back to try everything else on the menu.

Recommended by our B&B host who said it was very good, and it was really excellent! The staff were friendly, the service was quick and the food was delicious. Good portion sizes too.

Wow. Fabulous food, atmosphere and staff incredible . Starters and all dishes beautifully presented and flavoured. So authentic.

Great little find in Cheddar, really busy on a weeknight which is great to see for the business and the food is simply immense. Both the chaps serving us were lovely, and we will certainly be back next time we visit.

Amazing food, fantastic service and a great atmosphere. Highly recommend. We will definitely be returning.

We had a takeaway while staying nearby on our holiday. The food was excellent, very fresh and flavoursome. Excellent Thai food, easy to order and pick up without getting out your car.

This restaurant is a must! Food was amazing, staff were extremely attentive. Authentic Thai cuisine. Restaurant was full so book. Thank you Zen Thai for a fabulous evening.

Once again amazing food, always the same quality and service when we return 10/10 highly recommended and if you are in Cheddar do not go anywhere else.

Excellent food and service. We were a late booking and they squeezed us in which was great. A huge thank you to the team for what was a memorable meal, reasonably priced and beautifully cooked snd presented. Our favourite meal in what was a four...

Definitely deserves the very good reviews. Amazing staff, super food. They even had a separate vegan menu. Well worth another visit.

Great setting and atmosphere but the food stole the show. Outstanding to say the least. The pork belly starter was the best starter I’ve had since 1999

Another x 2 visits and it's better than ever, food was amazing along with service and quality of the whole experience. All the staff are brilliant but a special mention to Liam for his amazing customer service and personality. This place knocks it out the...

The restaurant never disappoints, excellent food, service and atmosphere. we went again, for our 33rd wedding anniversary. Perfect place.

Absolutely delicious. Genuinely some of the best Thai food we've ever had. Definitely worth the money.

A great restaurant. Always a lovely warm welcome from Spencer and his wife. Staff are great. Food portions a good size. Excellent food that arrives quickly. A very popular restaurant so book ahead, however Spencer will do his best to accommodate. Definitely one to visit....

Great service, from booking by squeezing us in on a bank holiday Friday night to serving, friendly warm welcome, delicious food served hot and tasty. Highly recommended.

Once again a first class service, a very warm welcome and an amazing meal. Live coming here and can’t wait until the next time. Thank you once again and see you again soon.

- Warm, welcoming and courteous staff, - outstanding food; very well presented, good size portions, thoroughly enjoyed by all the family.

Can't fault this place! We were recommended to come here when we moved to Cheddar a week ago and we can see why! Delicious food, fast and friendly service, and reasonably priced. Thank you!

A must . The staff are so lovely, friendly and respectful. The food is outstanding Best Thai meal we have had We have been several times and it never disappoints Enjoy cause we do it’s delicious

Sensational food! A must taste when visiting Chedder. Me and the family went for dinner, the staff were really lovely, the atmosphere was great and the food was to die for. Will definitely be returning. Highly recommend the pad thai 👌

Lovely meal here tonight! Nice atmosphere and the food was delicious, we had a selection of mixed starters and then the Pad Thai which was amazing, with the Chicken with cashews and an egg fried rice!

Fantastic food accompanied by first class friendly service , this restaurant is an absolute must try if you , like me, love Thai food , 100% authentic Thai cuisine . We will be back thanks Zen Thai for a great evening .

The food was amazing as was the service. You felt special when you walked in. The only reason why I have given it four stars and not 5 is that the portion sizes were smaller when compared with other Thai restaurants in cities like Bristol...

Amazing food!! Highly recommend the mixed starters , panang curry and pad Thai. Everything was excellent 👌 quick service and friendly staff. Will be definitely returning .

Excellent food and our waiter Liam was friendly, polite and efficient. We had a very good experience and will go back again.

What a wonderful restaurant that we stumbled upon. Just looking at Thai places nearby where we were staying for a couple of days and we picked this one. A beautiful restaurant, clean, tidy and welcoming. Liam our server was very attentive, service was quick, food...

Food was excellent in taste and presentation really would go here again if in the area . Booking is advised at main times , we phoned and they were fully book on the evening but managed to get us in early .

Visiting cheddar and staying at campsite half mile walk into the touristy side of the village, welcoming staff and great environment, food was authentic and probably the best thai since i was there 5 years ago. All food was fresh and tasty best thai I’ve...

We travelled to cheddar from Scotland for a holiday. We’re aware of different places to eat but decided to try the zen Thai… oh how glad we were that we did! The food was absolutely amazing. The staff were very friendly and kindly gave us...

We only came in here by accident but were so glad we did, and were lucky to get a table as the maitre d' told us they are fully booked most evenings. Everything was fantastic and I haven't enjoyed a meal as much in ages....

Delicious Takeaway, cannot wait to visit the restaurant. I particularly loved the chicken wings starter, everything was labelled up and piping hot. They catered very well for my garlic and wheat intolerance. Thank you Spence and the team!

We just had our first takeway (still under COVID restrictions so no eat-in as yet). Ordering by email, followed by payment over the phone was super-efficient. Kerbside pickup was easy and the meal was ready right on time. I loved that every single dish was clearly labelled and I'm happy to report that every single dish was delicious. All four of us enjoyed the food. We can't wait to go back and eat in.

Very frequent customer to Zen thai. Food is visually stunning, fresh and tasty. I always get a seafood dish and it never ceases to impress. Strong 11/10 !

We tried Zen Thai from recommendations after moving back to the area from Bristol. Quite simply, it was incredible!!For COVID reasons, we obviously had a takeaway, but the measures they go to to ensure social distancing is outstanding. Spencer was so helpful on the phone when ordering.Had a couple of dishes, but the Pad Thai was on par with what I have experienced in Thailand (everything else was super as well!)Can’t wait to try other dishes and will hopefully be able to experience everything the restaurant has to offer in the near future.. until then, it will be our go to takeaway place!!

We ate here and absolutely loved it. My husband is vegan and still bangs on about his meal there. I had the ginger delight and was lush. The staff were hugely knowledgeable and friendly and welcomed us. They offered advice on dishes and asked us about our day. Would definitely eat here again if we were visiting Cheddar again.

First visit on brief stay in Cheddar. Wonderful 3 courses especially recommend the Pad See Ew main. Good value excellent service.

We visited Zen Thai last night whilst visiting Cheddar and wanted to thank the sweetest and kindest lady for being our hostess throughout the meal. She was wonderful, attentive and gave us lots of information on the menu. The food was really really delicious but I'd go back just to see her! Thank you so much.

We visited while in the area and had prebooked..glad we did as it was quite busy.Food was very tasty and had a great mixed starter. Mains were just as delicious and service was second to none. Very friendly and amazing food. We will be ba K when in the area.

Visited tonight for the first time for my husbands birthday and we will definitely return as soon as therestaurant is open again. The food was delicious, as nice as we’ve had in Thailand and we were made to feel very welcome with a special treat for the birthday boy. We had the mixed sharing starter and highlyrecommend the Penang curry. Lots of helpful recommendations. Thank you for an enjoyable evening.

If you want beautiful Thai food served in a lovely setting with attentive and friendly staff, this is the place for you. Spence, Pear and the team really know how to make your visit special. I have been several times now and had takeaways. We have never been disappointed! Slowly working our way through the menu and enjoying every one! It really is well worth a visit!

Without a doubt the nicest Thai food I've ever had and easily the best service I've recieved at a restaurant.All the staff were welcoming and seem like they love their jobs. In particular Yimmy who's service was stupendous.I highly recommend paying these lovely people a visit!

From the service to the food, everything was spot on. Quite possibly the best Thai food I've had. Yimmy, our host, provided excellent recommendations, and was lovely. Had a sharing platter for starters, where everything was cooked to perfection, followed by a Panang, which was perfectly spiced. I will be going back. The dress code was informal, but we were very well dressed, so didn't look out of place in the beautiful setting.P.s. try the banana pancakes, they were an excellent finisher. You won't regret it.

Came to Cheddar on holiday and happened across this restaurant. Took my fussy ten year old daughter. Turns out she loved Pad Thai. The Tom yum soup was so tasty and the green curry was spot on. We loved it so much we immediately booked for the following night. The food is authentic and so tasty. The service is friendly and attentive. The space is comfortable and Covid safe. Highly recommended

Very good food and service, all positive reviews accurate. Beautiful restaurant with varied menu and a chef who knows how to cook.

Well deserved stars. Friendly and efficient service. Lovely fresh Thai food, with all our favourite salads, soups, curries etc. Best restaurant in Cheddar

I can not recommend this restaurant highly enough. I eat meat but we have a vegetarian in the family who loves the pineapple rice and tofu massaman curry. The rest of us love the lemon chicken. Make sure you visit.

Delicious meal at Zen Thai last night, and really good value. Lovely staff and comfortable with the social distancing in place. We’ll be back for more!

We booked this restaurant as a group of 6 we arrived early and they got us straight to our table. The staff where all very helpful and friendly. All of the group said the food was lovley and thoroughly enjoy it. Would highly recommend this restaurant!

We visited today for my wife's birthday, the food was outstanding and the service was even better. After our meal zimmy let my wife chose a dessert on the house for her birthday. Overall excellent was excellent and if we return to the area in the future we will definitely return.Highly recommend trying

A wonderful meal in a very busy Thai restaurant. The owner's wife is Thai, so they know how to cook the food perfectly. I was overjoyed to have the mango sticky rice for dessert, as I hadn't had it since visiting Thailand. I wasn't disappointed. The staff were friendly and curteous and adhered to COVID-19 rules and regulations, whilst still making it a pleasurable evening out.

Visited with family whilst taking a break locally at Longmead Food was very fresh and delicious service was excellent and the environment felt covid safe Will defiantly visit again when back in the area

Great service. Brilliant atmosphere. Outstanding food. Highly recommend the Jungle Curry, and coconut ice-cream. Will definitely visit again! Best Thai in a long time.

Fantastic place. Great service and the food is amazing. Yimmy was absolutely fantastic. If you are in the area and love Thai food then this place is a must. Thank you zen 😉

My partner & I stayed in Cheddar recently & had a meal in this wonderful restaurant. We were made to feelSo welcome & my multiple dietary requirements weren’t a problem at all! The meal was absolutely delicious honestly one of the best we’d had in a long time. The decor in the restaurant is beautiful & it’s lovely and relaxed. Can’t recommend enough :-) thank you!

Thai food at its very best♥️ Brilliant restaurant very friendly and helpful staff great service and delicious great value food - what more could you ask for highly recommend this wee gem👍👍👍👍👍

Visited cheddar for a few days and saw the restaurant as we were passing. Rang to book a table for the following evening and although they could only initially give us a late table, they pleasingly rang us back to let us know we could come earlier as other customers had finished. The staff were very welcoming, attentive and friendly and the food was out of this world. Easily the best meal we had during our trip in a nice and friendly atmosphere.

Came here for a second time and was just as pleased as before. Amazing flavourful food, portions are always very generous and even with being fully booked food came out swiftly. Staff make such an effort with customer service and it is clear to see they really value your custom. Could not recommend enough!

Visited the restaurant following reviews on TripAdvisor. It did not disappoint, felt safe, staff were really friendly, and the good was great.

We were staying locally in Cheddar and, having read reviews of restaurants generally in the area, decided to book a table at Zen's (in advance before we arrived and I'm glad we did). The restaurant itself was beautifully decorated and felt very calm even though it was full. We were promptly shown to our table and given menus along with prawn crackers to nibble whilst choosing our meals and I can honestly say that we had the nicest Thai meal we'd ever had in a very long time. The food was delicious and the service excellent. Would highly recommend a visit if you're in the vicinity, but book first!

Went for a takeaway. The crab rangoon was amazing, and loved the duck tamarind. If we find ourselves in Cheddar again we will for sure make a return visit. Thank you!

We have dined here several times in the past few months and always had a good experience. The food is always of the highest standard and the service is friendly and efficient. It is also great value for money. We will be returning.

We were made welcome by friendly staff, starter was delicious, I had seafood mushroom soup, hubby had sausages, both were very good. However, my spicy basil noodles with prawns was lacking in basil! And was pretty bland till I added my hubby's chilli sauce. He enjoyed his, then he had banana pancake, only it wasn't a pancake it was filo pastry. The chocolate sauce which covered it made it. It wasn't too heavy so that was good, overall quite yummy. Restaurant had a pleasant atmosphere.

Absolutely wonderful Thai meal. We ate as a family and were made to feel very welcome. There was a lovely atmosphere in the restaurant - it really felt like a lovely, relaxed vibe where you were well-looked after. The food and service were excellent and you could see the staff working so hard to make sure everyone was happy. Make sure you book well in advance as this restaurant is rightly very popular.

Amazing food, fantastic service and great value for money. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone

What an awesome restaurant. Fantastic service from friendly and attentive staff. Delicious food and drinks, excellent ambiance. We couldn't have asked for more. Highly recommended. We'll be back for more soon.

The quality of the food and the friendly attentive service make this an excellent choice for a perfect evening out. Myself and my wife visited recently taking advantage of the Eat Out To Help Out scheme making our meals exceptional value for money. Every dish was, in our opinion, perfectly cooked. The waitress who served us was so lovely, keeping us updated on timings and regularly making sure we were happy with our food.Still a 5* meal but we did come away just a little concerned that this restaurant could be at a higher risk than necessary of a Covid-19 issue. Hand sanitiser was available on entry and chairs/tables were being thoroughly wiped down as guests left. However, it a small space and tables are quite close together. Staff members were waiting at tables without face coverings and mingled as a group around the bar area with no obvious social distancing between them. Maybe a few tweaks needed to minimise the risk of virus spread. No tweaks needed to the food though!

2 very different couples, my wife with ulcerative colitis made to feel very welcome and had an astounding meals. Couldn't ask for more will definitely be back

What can I say? Never in a million years did I think I would find an authentic Thai restaurant in cheddar but my god. This place is amazing and a must. Please don’t pass this place by you will be sorry

First time eating Thai food and absolutely loved it. Can’t believe we live here and have never tried this place. Fantastic food and excellent service. Highly recommended.

Cannot rate this place enough.....The staff were so nice, efficient and welcoming, the food was delicious and so reasonably priced. Lovely meal, lovely people, lively location.

Don’t let the outside of the restaurant fool you. Once inside you are quickly transported to a full Thai experience. The food was delicious all the usuals you would expect plus some speciality dishes. Service was exceptional.It gets busy so make sure you book. The first time we wanted to eat it was fully booked so we opted for a take away from there instead. Food quality is not different between eating out abs inn.Highly recommended.

The food was absolutely delicious service was excellent lovely atmosphere I had the spicy basil prawn dish and my friend had the crispy orange chicken with crispy noodles with coconut and jasmine rice and a sharing platter to start I will definitely visit again soon and have already recommended to friends

We booked an evening meal here, because they had a few vegan options. The service was quick and friendly and the food delicious. Very happy to recommend.

Booking is a must as it’s obviously incredibly popular!! We got an early table and were greeted with a warm welcome. Very cosy environment and lovely atmosphere (although not sure how Covid secure as it is very quaint and tables are quite close together). A lovely lady took out order and the food came out quickly. It was absolutely delicious, and to have empty plates from two young fussy children says something. Would highly recommend and we would definitely go again, it’s the best Thai food I’ve had in a long time!

Picked this to round off a short break in Somerset based on the Trip Advisor reviews. Huge choice on menu, food was delicious, decor made for nice surroundings and staff very friendly. Highly recommended!

Excellent service and food. The atmosphere is lovely and the staff are extremely friendly and helpful.

We managed to get a last minute table at Zen Thai because of a cancellation, and went with our two young daughters. It had been a boiling hot day and it was lovely inside with the air conditioning. The food was excellent, and everyone was friendly and welcoming. A really enjoyable evening, thank you.

We ate here last Saturday evening after this restaurant being recommended by our hotel. The lady (Yin??) was absolutely fantastic giving us great advice as we like spicy food and she told us to add spices rather than go for the Jungle - great advice!!!! They were so friendly and helpful and the price was good too. Can't wait to go back.

Amazing food and service at this lovely little Thai restaurant. Our server was very helpful and informative, from helping us to choose the best starters to discussing the differences between Chang and Singha beer. Between us we had the duck curry, veg noodle soup, cashew chicken, sea bass rad khing, and broccoli & oyster. We loved it all! We all had the coconut rice as a side, which was equally brilliant.A lot of the meals can also be made vegan.

What a fantastic Restaurant, we poppedIn here on the off chance they had a table. Covid rules are followed to the letter veryClean and hygienic. Tables all appropriately distanced. Our lovely waitress explained the menu and gave suggestions on what to eat. Customer service is second to none! It really matters that you are having a good experience. A truly lovely restaurant, I wouldn’t hesitate returning here when we come back to cheddar.
