One of the top St Albans restaurants, Thai Square is housed within a beautifully restored 15th Century timber frame building.

We are one of the top Thai restaurants in this ancient English city, and were honoured as a finalist in the 2017 Hertfordshire Food and Drink Awards.

Our St Albans restaurant location has a bar area with a wide and varied selection of wines and cocktails, making it the perfect place for both dinner and drinks.

Be sure to try the Massaman and Green curries and our popular house special grilled barbecue pork on skewer ‘Moo Ping’. They are lovingly prepared by our head chef who was trained in Northeastern Thailand, which is known for spicy salads and soups. These dishes are recommended by our customers and dedicated kitchen team alike.

Beautiful surroundings. Sat down immediately. Whole section for vegetarian and vegans. Allergens labelled clearly. The spicy aubergine and coconut rice were some of the nicest dishes I’ve ever had. Lots of choice, we ordered three starters and they came out quickly and were freshly made (nice and hot!) staff very friendly and cannot wait to come back again. Would recommend for both a casual lunch time and a nice dinner.

Thai square is always a great choice for its good quality and ambience. The only thing I would say is that it’s highly priced for the portion sizing and the waitress we were served by looked lack it was the last thing she wanted to be doing! Thoroughly miserable despite trying to engage her.

This was an anniversary dinner. Bland food and when we complained and ordered something else, they forgot to bring it by which time my wife finished her meal. No acknowledgment of celebration and although offered a 25% Discount the experience ruined the evening and we left hungry. Never again.

Food was tasty, although it took 1 hour for the food to arrive. It was Saturday night, however this was still extreme. Staff were not attentive and they got the wrong bill so we were chased out once they realised they had made the mistake. Service charge is automatically added, therefore had to manually ask for it to be taken off. Food was tasty but overpriced.

Delightful wedding anniversary dinner. Lovely ambiance, tasteful decor and we had a good window table. The service was prompt and courteous in attending to our requests. The food was simply delightful, an orchestra of delicious tastes delivered in visually appealing ways. All in all a memorable outing for the Mrs and I.

The whole experience was awful. The food was awful, not cooked properly. The service very poor. They only had two people waiting a full downstairs restaurant. I came away feeling so disappointed having wasted so much money on such awful food. So many great restaurants in St Albans. I will never return. FYI, I never write bad reviews but this experience was awful. Worst Thai meal I have ever had. I used to visit the restaurant regularly but will never return now. The restaurant also didn’t look very clean.

This is one of our favourite places to go for dinner. Amazing food, usually amazing service but on this occasion one of the women working there was very rude. Erratically showing us to our table and rushing around and being very blunt and rude whilst speaking to us. Snatching menus off of the table etc. It felt like being there was an inconvenience to be there. Also I chose to leave cash instead of pay the service in the bill. As I asked for the bill minus service to be paid on card she snatched the tray away so had to leave the cash tip on the table. This won’t put us off going back but hopefully it’s on her day off or a day when there’s a better mood!
