    This was my 3rd visit to Namploy and I ordered the same dish I did the previous times. The chicken Massaman curry. Service was great, our waitress was attentive, although we waited a while for our coffees and then mine wasn’t what I ordered when it arrived. I would say the starters seem a little pricey and the mains don’t come with a side and so to order a side dish bumps up the price of your main dish to just short of £20 in some cases.
