"My wife and I have regularly dined at TB since 2017. In our experience, the entree and main dishes have always been top-notch: food is fresh, portions are generous, and well-presented on the plate. Prices are reasonable for both food and drinks."

"We had a wonderful meal at the Thai Boat on Friday 9th May. Relatives staying with us enjoy Thai food and we took them to the Boat because its reputation is first class. We were not disappointed. The food was just delicious and was delivered in quick time, nice and hot and well presented. Service staff were courteous and brought the food and cleared away dishes very well. The atmosphere was a little noisy due to a children's birthday party behind us but we took that in our stride as they are entitled to their enjoyment. Overall an enjoyable night for dinner and we will be certainly going back."

"I've been looking forward to going to the Thai Boat and it did not disappoint. The food was so good. We ordered the beef Massaman curry and Crispy pork which were both delicious. Not too spicy with great flavours."

"The best Thai I’ve ever had! Absolutely delicious. I’ve ordered takeaway here several times now and you can definitely tell the produce used is always fresh. As generally I find ordering seafood in a stir fry at other Asian restaurants tends to be bland and definitely not fresh. But here they always have fresh juicy and tasty prawns and the calamari is always tender. Plus they’re always deveined. I also love their desserts with coconut which are seriously so tasty. The coconut is so fresh, soft and sweet either with tapioca pearls or black sticky rice. When we enter the restaurant to pick up our order the staff are always busy making sure everyone is greeted. Though it’s a very small restaurant so there’s no room to wait for your order if you’re early. You just stand around in the way whilst servers bustle past you. I wasn’t happy when I was charged 15% extra by paying for my order instore instead of online. Which was apparently a public holiday surcharge. They’re already slightly more expensive than other Asian restaurants and then to add a surcharge on top of that. Especially when I could’ve paid online without that surcharge included. If you’re ordering take out it’s best to pick up your order as I waited almost an hour and a half for my delivery and I live literally around the corner. But I couldn’t get out with a sick baby."
