Absolutely lovely!! The decor was beautiful and the food was delicious. My boyfriend of the buffet and ended up eating 3 plates full, it was so good and I got the sweat and sour beef which was also delicious. Thank you!!

We ordered from this Thai restaurant at the last minute – literally just minutes before the kitchen was about to close. Honestly, they didn’t have to accommodate us with such late notice, but they went out of their way to be incredibly friendly and helpful. Despite the tight timing, they made sure everything was perfect. The food was absolutely amazing – hands down the best Thai we’ve had in the UK. The flavours were so authentic, and every dish was packed with incredible taste. We can’t recommend this place enough!

Ate here on a Friday night. Entrance to the restaurant is through the pub - and out into the garden area. The staff are all very friendly and welcoming. Orders were taken - and drinks were bought out to us quickly. We then ordered food - with some helpful hints and suggestions on what was good on the menu from the lady taking our orders (we didn't get her name) The owner joined us for a short while - and he's an absolute entertainer! What a fabulous meal - all of the dishes were great. Highly recommend the prawn cake starter, and the prawn platter! We will definitely be back to try more off the menu!

Fantastic place, absolutely amazing food, comes served piping hot and delicious. Really great service the waitresses are very friendly and funny. General atmosphere is cosy and comforting. Highly recommend this place as the food is out of this world and the portions are generous, you're paying for quantity and quality. Will definitely return.

I have been going to The Taste of Thailand at The Woolpack for the past 7 months or so. My husband and I ate there again tonight and as per usual we were not disappointed! Food was delicious, great atmosphere and wonderful staff. We had the ribs to start which we pretty much always order as they are SO good. I had the Chicken cashew for my main which was beautifully presented and so tasty. My husband had the lamb massaman curry special, the lamb was really tender and perfectly cooked. Would highly recommend, don’t put off booking a table! Thanks to all at The Woolpack for yet another amazing meal!

Peterborough food scene is pretty poor but this is fabulous Thai food. I love the freshness of the papaya salad, the warmth of the Tom Yum soup, and the citrus ate of course delicious. Extra points for the kids menu: it has lovely vegetables and it’s still a Thai fish without too much spice!

My wife and I discovered this little gem back in early June after seeing a couple of Facebook posts. We decided to give it a go as my wife was due to give birth within the next few days and thought it would be a nice idea to have a meal out before our daughter arrived. I'm so glad we went! The food is simply phenomenal, the service is fantastic and the setting is lovely as is the atmosphere, and that is always the same whether you're there for lunch or an evening meal. So much so, I think we've been at least every 2-3 weeks since! Head chef Chuda is lovely and will always come out to say hello, it's always nice to see Kaz who will ensure you receive the best level of service and is always happy to have a chat. This has quickly become our favourite place to eat in Peterborough and we are already planning on going back again soon. If you're on the fence about paying a visit, all I can say is go. You won't regret it! Highly recommend the sweetcorn fritters, platter of ribs and the Pad Thai!

Cosy little Thai restaurant located at the rear of The Woolpack pub. Delicious food at a reasonable price along with great service. Will definitely be returning to sample some of the other dishes on offer. Parking: Parking can be a little tricky as its street parking only in a residential area so be prepared to walk a short distance if necessary.

Not the best experience! 40 mins after ordering our food we asked if it would be much longer, only to find the kitchen hadnt been told wed ordered. Once we asked, the food then arrived 4 mins later. It was tasty but very greasy. What a shame, as we heard good things about it.

We were staying in the Orton hotel and spa looking for somewhere to eat and came across this restaurant so we booked a table. Even though parking looks tight, there is plenty in the adjacent streets available. The actual restaurant is down in the garden which would be great in the summer months! Great friendly atmosphere and fantastic fresh food. We had 4 duck rolls each! Currys and great sticky rice. Amazing price, should be charging more really. The chef even came out to see how we were doing. well done guys.

Absolutely amazing, food and service. Gabby the waitress was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu, she was also very good with our daughter. The Chef was brilliant, coming to check if everything was ok (which is was) and clearly holds a high standard to which she should be proud. Great experience, good prices and wonderful food.

Fantastic food, honestly best Thai I ve ever had. Had the tamarind wings and red curry. Asked for curry spicy and was perfect heat. Only feedback is to give spoons on the table - Thai curry was amazing but difficult to eat with just a knife and fork and I ran out of rice to finish it off.

A hidden gem in Peterborough! Beautiful authentic home cooked Thai dishes served with a smile by genuine and friendly staff. Really engaging with patrons and go the extra mile to ensure all needs and appetites are catered for. Fair prices for the quality of the dishes on offer and all can be tailored to fit any special requirements. We will definitely return! Vegetarian options: Tofu used is high quality or there is the option to have all dishes with just vegetables. Dietary restrictions: All dishes can be tailored as made from scratch - remember to inform your server of any requirements. Any intolerances and dietary restrictions were catered for when asked. Parking: No car park but plenty of on street parking nearby. Kid-friendliness: Small kids section which includes Thai themed dishes tailored to smaller, and slightly more picky, diets for little ones.

Fantastic food in a great location. Finding this little Gem of a boozer was a revaluation. Not only are the staff exceedingly friendly they also offer some fantastic Thai food. We had steamed Sea bass in soy and ginger with a Red curry. Great value for money - worth a night out
