Baan Thai Restaurant

Nice laid back atmosphere, tasty food but not all that flavoursome, generous serving sizes and quick service.

My brother and I went to Baan Thai one night after a long day moving house. We wanted to eat somewhere nice to reward ourselves for the day, but also somewhere casual enough for us to relax after a sweaty day moving.
Baan Thai was exactly what we were looking for. The restaurant has a lovely interior and a paved, outdoor eating area with umbrellas. The table beside us was occupied by a foursome of indie kids on their way to the valley and the guys weren’t wearing shoes. So this place is fancy enough to dress nicely, but casual enough to go shoeless!
We rocked up pretty late, at around 8:45pm, but the staff were welcoming and let us stay until 9:30pm. That said, they did accidentally switch the lights off while we were eating, but it was fair enough considering we were sitting in on their pack up time.
The food is perfect, but a little pricey for me, with most mains ranging from $ 15-​$ 20. We got the red duck curry ($ 18.50) and Som Tamm salad (carrot, cabbage, and dried shrimp). The salad was packed with chilli, so be warned if you’ve got a delicate palate!
Lunch hours: Baan Thai is open for lunch on Monday — Fridays, from 12−2pm.
