    We really enjoyed eating here. The food was tasty and fresh plus the menu had a lot of choices giving plenty of reasons to visit again. We will definitely go back. I ordered a spicy dish with morning glory and belly pork which managed to balance the spice and flavours really well. We also had a fried Sea bass, the flavours were really nice although it was slightly over fried, not enough to ruin the meal though. The Thai inspired desserts won't be to everyone's taste, but they were wll prepared. Wheelchair accessibility was good.

    First time I was here 2 years ago. Every time when I want to go somewhere or order something for takeaway My first thought is always Zaap. ! I really love that food, its excellent. Taste and amount. Price is reasonable what is really important as well. I recommended Zaap to all of my friends and most of them tried and they were really happy with my recommendation.

    I must say this place was fantastic. The interior design is an assult on your eyes....but not in a bad way. Everywhere you look there is something interesting to see and it's so colorful. Our waitress Moo was a delight and so attentive to us. She recommended dishes and was a real pleasure to chat to. The food was divine! Really delicious flavours and my vegetarian main was superb. I would absolutely return!

    I’ve been coming here for the past 6 years and it’s always an amazing experience. Left a picture of empty plates because we ate absolutely everything! Fantastic vegetarian and vegan options. Would definitely recommend and gladly come back!

    Love this restaurant! It has a really great vibe, and stepping inside I was transported back to the street markets of Bangkok. I was seated quickly and asked if I had any food allergies, I don’t but I am vegetarian. I was given a vegetarian menu - which is fantastic, as it means I don’t have to question every dish! I ordered the Tofu Pad Thai and a Bubble Tea. Both were excellent, especially the Pad Thai - which was full of flavour. The dish was massive, and I waddled out of there after eating as much as I could! Staff were lovely, and very attentive - excellent customer service. Highly recommended, and I’ll definitely be returning.

    Delicious thai with a huge menu and selection. Amazing variety of dishes for vegans and vegetarians including new menu items of mock chicken. Quirky decor, and always an incredible bustling atmosphere and fast service. A must visit for Nottingham

    Had Coca Cola and dark ram cocktail and grilled duck large. It was too large. I couldn’t finish it. They could have put more rice. But overall a good experience.

    Zaap Thai Street Food took me on an exquisite culinary journey back to my cherished gap year in Thailand, and I can't sing its praises enough. The lightning-quick service transported me straight to the bustling streets of Bangkok, where every moment is precious. The Tempura Prawn Bao Bun was a heavenly revelation, a crispy yet fluffy vessel for the succulent prawns that instantly transported me to the vibrant street food stalls I fondly remember. And the Duck Main? Oh, it was a flavor explosion, reminiscent of the mouthwatering dishes I devoured in Chiang Mai. What's truly remarkable is that these delectable delights won't break the bank. The prices are incredibly reasonable, offering a taste of Thailand without the hefty price tag. I sipped on the Siam cocktail, and the zesty, refreshing flavors were a delightful throwback to the Thai beaches and their enchanting sunsets. The atmosphere at Zaap Thai Street Food is nothing short of enchanting. The vibrant decor, bustling ambiance, and friendly staff created a genuine Thai street food experience. It felt like a warm Thai embrace after a long day of travel. In short, Zaap Thai Street Food is a treasure trove of culinary delights that whisked me away to my gap year adventures. The service, food, prices, cocktail, and atmosphere all melded together to create a truly unforgettable experience. If you yearn for a taste of Thailand's charm, look no further.

    We been first time at Zaap, great decor, nice service , starters was really lovely, although menu is not very well presented for those who are not eating meat or seafood. We had tasty starters, main noodles was very average, overall we had good time as didn't need to cook. Would love it if it will not be so much adjusted to British taste...and stayed authentic Thai. Lipstick smudge on glass for water make us a bit aware of higine (next tuck tuck rable had same issues-we change glasses ). We will give it a go another time tho.

    If you wanna transport yourselves to the streets of Thailand and sit by the tracks and get amazing street food, you have got it all at Zaap which is just the right amount of vibrancy and bright. We are seated quickly and glancing through the n number of things on the vast menu that takes a while to decide. We placed an order for Gai Satay, Tod Mun Pla, Khow Kreb Tod, Pad See Aew and Gang Kiew Wan. The service is super super quick and we loved that as the dishes are served hot and fresh to the table. Khow Kreb Tod is a basket of crispy prawn crackers served with a sweet chilli dip that's crackling on every bite. Gai Satay was grilled chicken skewers served with a peanut dip that's tender for every bite. Tod Mun Pla is Thai Fish Cakes that have soft bites of fish fried and served with a sweet chili dip. Gang Kiew Wan is the traditional thai green curry with a lot of veggies and chicken served with jasmine rice. Pad See Aew serves rice noodles stir fried with egg, veggies and soy sauces. For dessert we chose the Pandan pancake which is pandan custard wrapped in a pandan pancake served with vanilla ice cream and topped with honey and biscuit crumbs that plays a tone of flavors for every bite. The vibe about the place just makes the food and the experience wholesome.

    It is the first time I visited this restaurant. The decorations truly resemble the atmosphere of the Thai street market. The chefs are cooking different dishes busy. The staff are very nice and friendly too. You can find lots of authentic Thai food on the menu with reasonable price. The taste is very good! I feel so amazing that I can find such a funny and lively Asian restaurant in the UK. That's why it attracts lots of customers who are willing to wait for about 20 minutes to get a table!

    We came here from Italy 🇮🇹 It was my second time eating at Zaap (first time was in a different location). I love the atmosphere and how it’s decorated. The food was amazing and service was fast. The only down side is that I ordered a vegan meal with tofu but it came with tofu AND chicken.

  • 4/5 Raminta D. 10 months ago on Google
    Great decor and amazing staff, we had gyoza and crispy squid for starters they were amazing, but the mains were lacking flavour... Not exciting as other Thai food that we had before... Hopefully, next time I will be able to give 5 stars..

  • 5/5 Huanjia Y. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice Thai place very authentic, filled quickly once after 12:00. Really good curry and fried noodle. The soup and pork belly were my favourite.

  • 5/5 Jess 1 year ago on Google
    One of my favourite venues! Great atmosphere, music, staff and food. It's always quite busy no matter the time but in my experience you're always seated and served quickly. The menu is very extensive it's often hard to choose what to eat but there's something for everyone and the portions are generous. Really makes you feel like you're entering another world and gives you a taste of Thailand!

    The best Isan style Thai food ( Farmers style) in NYC so far. Be adventurous and prepared for spicy dish. Clean your hands well and mole your sticky rice well. Just scoop with it.

    Good place to enjoy Thai food with friends. The decorations are amazing and the services are quick. You can pay the bills separately as well. Only chicken is halal here. The foods are delicious. Recommended

    Thai restaurant with authentic cuisine and loads of character. The layout has been cleverly created to resemble a Bangkok street scene. Really enjoyed the atmosphere and the service was phenomenal. Would definitely recommend a visit if you enjoy Thai Street food!

    Ensuring we grabbed a decent meal before the night ahead we chose here. The majority of reviews were nothing but glowing. On arrival it was manic but agreed to wait for 15 min on the side for a table. Overseeing the bar I caught glimpses of waterdowned cocktails being prepped and sent out, which swaydd my decision not to try one. After 15min we were led down a busy stretch of faux tucs tucs and a seated against a a wall crowded with loot stuck to the wall. The menu had plenty to offer from dim sum, Thai fishcakes lots of variants of sea bass and all Thai dishes you could think of catering from meat eaters to vegans. I adore bubble tea so was madly curious to try a alcohol variant which was a boozy salted caramel. My other half ordered a havana rum. My partner received whisky rather than rum and mine was full of so much tapioca it spoiled it. For food my partner had the har kau prawn dumplings and pineapple rice with prawns. Myself pork sesame skewers along with prawn red curry. We both enjoyed the starters lovely texture and flavours besides the unhappy lettuce. Unfortunately the mains were weak. We had eaten pineapple rice in our weeks and Thailand and wanted to experience that same tastiness. It was just plain rice , under cooked veg and big prawns on the side.. not rice laced with pineapple etc.. my red Thai curry was more of a soup with basic flavour with also undercooked veg. I like to have some bite but not like this. The prawns were cooked nicely . Not once did anyone ask about our wellfare or food quality. Droid like they cleaned tables at lightning speed and took food orders churning the tables fast. Overall very disappointed with and did not deserve the service charge they whacked on... not very attentive and poor food quality.

    **optional service charge is applied automatically. Service is very quick and the staff are swift. Free tap water is for the customer to get at their leisure. We ordered had chicken gyoza, satai chicken, chicken curry, and pad thai noodles. The satai chicken was delicious and had good flavour. The chicken gyoza was crispy but had little flavour. The pad thai was way too spicy for my wife, but was delicious. The chicken curry was not spicy at all, even after I asked for extra spicy. The vibe and venue was awesome, looked like a back alley on a busy street.

    Great place with a fab atmosphere. The menu is huge which is great for larger groups, there is definitely something for everyone. We were not keen on the plastic cups for water, but this was a minor gripe. Overall, I would recommend.
