For an excellent Thai food experience at an affordable price, this place stands out. Their Green Curry Fried Rice is a must-try — flavorful, aromatic, and a unique twist on a classic dish. The Tom Kha Soup, rich with coconut milk and brimming with vegetables, is another standout, offering a hearty and comforting taste.

- Very good. I’ve walked past it so many times without noticing. - Lots of space (there are tables upstairs). - The jal sauce with the crispy pork belly (moo sam chan jim jal) - Service great - Prices reasonable

Ordered Tom Kah, Spring Rolls, Kamon Jeeb(like a pork and shrimp siumai, and pad thai. Everything was top notch except for the Tom Kah. It lacks flavor that I am expecting, not spicy but has lots of seasfood on it. Overall its still great

The food is authentic! Their Thai green curry was amazing and not too heavy at the same time. Their pad Thai is also one of the best food to try. The seafood Tom yum was yummy. Good value for money

We recently visited Bangrak Thai for a company meal with 17 people. The experience was fantastic from start to finish. We were seated upstairs in a large, comfortable room that provided a perfect setting for a group gathering. Instead of opting for a set meal, we ordered from the menu, which allowed us to enjoy a variety of dishes. Every plate looked amazing, and the quality was consistent across the board. I personally had the tom yum with prawns, and the chilli beef—both were excellent, bursting with authentic Thai flavours and perfectly cooked. The environment was warm and welcoming, and the staff were friendly, attentive, and efficient, ensuring the meal ran smoothly despite the size of our group. Highly recommended for both large groups and smaller outings. A wonderful spot for delicious Thai food and great hospitality.

Just tried a few regular dishes given this was my first time here. They were excellent and the menu is worth further exploration. Friendly, prompt service and reasonable prices.

What a gem of a restaurant this is! I hadn’t been to Newcastle since last year and was debating where to eat near to my hotel when I noticed this restaurant as I returned from the Baltic. The staff are so lovely and attentive! As a solo diner I was made to feel very welcome. The menu was huge but I settled for a favourite: Chicken Pad Thai. It was the best I’ve had! Very generous portion, delicious, beautifully presented, I would absolutely eat it again. Highly recommended!
