"Booked a table of 5 for my birthday dinner. We were promptly seated then immediately asked for drinks orders before even being offered a drinks menu or water. After we had ordered drinks we were being rushed into ordering some food, every two minutes different waiters coming and asking if we are ready to order (at least 7 times). After we did order and the food was brought out, we were then just forgotten about and nobody came over anymore to check if we needed any more drinks (4 out of 5 glasses were empty) or if the food was ok. (It was- but no one checked). After we had finished dining, we still had empty glasses and had to wait 20+ minutes until we eventually stopped a waiter walking past and asked if we could order more drinks. The drinks then took another 15 minutes to come. It was also very disappointing that although we had mentioned on the booking itself that it was for my birthday, there was no acknowledgement of this (I have been before and had received a plate with ‘happy birthday’ written on it in some kind of sauce with a sparkler). My sister even went to ask the woman working on the front desk and received a standoffish attitude back saying no. When the £235 bill came, it even listed ‘birthday plate £0.00’ on it!!! That really let the evening down. The interactions with the staff themselves were great, they were very polite and personable but the actual level of service of being rushed to order and then totally forgotten about really dampened what could have been a fantastic evening."

"My husband and I were visiting Poole and found The Thai Pantry on Google Maps. After having a look at the menu and salivating we decided to book a table. We were definitely not disappointed. The welcome is warm and friendly and the owner is happy to chat. The food is absolutely delicious and were we to be here another night we would most definitely be back. We can't recommend it highly enough. All we can say is how lucky the people of Poole are to have this on their doorsteps!"

"Lyssa was fantastic throughout our dining experience. She ensured our drinks were always filled and that we were enjoying ourselves. Her service at the table was impeccable and her personality was wonderful. She is an outstanding member of the team and I hope to have her as our server for future visits."

"We had a great waiter (Jamie I think), the atmosphere was lovely, he was really attentive and took great care of us. I asked for the disabled toilet key which was provided straight away. One piece of feedback I would give, is that there is no mirror in the disabled toilet, meaning when I shut the door I was hit by the regular toilet door opening because I had to go to the women’s after. If the disabled toilet door opened from the other side then this wouldn’t be an issue either. Apart from that, the food was lovely, nice big scallops, great roast portions and we loved the mini dessert and cocktail option. We had a lovely time and have already recommended to friends."

"the food was really good I had hot tom yum soup (hot) for starters it was lovely but very hot! Green Thai curry for main course.....I asked for medium.... I'm glad I did as the hot flavour of the soup was still hanging around. medium was very tasty. A beer for both of us. it cost £73 which I thought was more expensive than any other Thai restaurant but I can't complain about the service and food. I will go again and try something different next time."
