The best restaurants serving Thai food in Mancroft Norwich East of England

To be honest this is the first Thai restaurant I've been to (I tried it because of the lamentable lack of decent Chinese places in Norwich), so didn't really know what to expect. Had Chicken Gang Pa curry with rice and bottle of beer. It was nice, though quite runny, had to use a spoon instead of knife, presumably this is normal. It's hardly cheap, bill £21.40, dearer than the Indian I had the previous night. The curry was £12.75, beer £3.50, they say they don't make a service charge for under five people, so the rice must have cost over a fiver. And I wasn't best pleased that having paid with £25 cash, the waiter gave me change of £3.50, muttered something and then tried to whisk it away, as though I had consented to them having it as a tip! Next year in Norwich I'll eat in Wetherspoons and save a tenner.

We have been going to this restaurant for about 10 years, we don't go often probably about 8 times in the 10 years, the food has always been lovely quality and the price OK considering it's in the middle of Norwich city but we went there a couple of weeks ago, both had a starter, then one main and a side plus 2 beers and a lemonade. The food was still very nice but we thought the bill would come to about £60 as normal and were a bit shocked when it came to £76 so we looked and we had been charged 10% service charge, now it may have always been like that but we don't think so, plus there was a young lad serving us rather than the mature ladies. We were not informed about the service charge before and only noticed it after we had paid because the bill came at the same time as the credit card machine.

As usual the service was excellent, the food arrived promptly and was hot, delicious, and in good supply. What more can you want?

Food here was disappointing. Apart from the tom yum soup was very good, the rest was takeaway standard. Staff very helpful and friendly. Surroundings very dated.

My partner and I have been here a few times throughout the pass year, being our closest Thai takeaway. NEVER AGAIN! They obviously don’t know/care the importance of allergies. I have celiac disease which I let them know multiple times before alway orders. I always order a pad-Thai from there, only to find out they’ve been putting soy sauce in which is NOT gluten free. Who knows what else they’ve said to be gluten free when not, imagine if it was a nut allergy! Besides from them not taking allergies seriously the food was terrible and very pricy, £20.90 for a chicken panang curry and king prawn pad-Thai. Food portions was despicable. Tails were still left on the four king prawns we had. The curry had thinly chopped up bay leaf which made the curry inedible so that went to waste. Won’t be going again! Please don’t go if you have allergies ‼️

Had a lovely meal for the 15 I had, can't beat this place no better place value for money wise in Norwich. Would like to try some of their hotter Currys next time. Tikka masala here I could just eat buckets of it's that flavoursome and the chicken is fresh too it seems. Doesnt really deserve such a low rating. As to me there is only one downside, that the naan isn't made in house and is the usual ones that go cold too quickly. Thanks for a nice meal Bombay spice and sorry one more thing you have definitely put too much salt when it comes to the chicken but I still enjoyed it
