    Ate here with some friends a few weeks ago. The sizzling chicken dish was too spicy to eat. My friend removed all the chicken from her green curry dish. The chicken had a soft texture and she was unable to eat it. I had a squid dish, the vegetables had a nice flavour and the sauce was good but the squid had no taste. We complained to the waitress but she offered no explanation or solution. She did tell another member of staff. Disappointing.

    Food was good, the pad khi maow was delicious but could be more spicy. Pork rib was okay and service was quick.

    Had a very lovely time here. The food is excellent and the service was very warm and courteous. Almost like having dinner at your moms place. We were very well attended by New who was absolutely friendly and nice. Would certainly recommend 100%.

    Really really BAD food. We ordered the food today and it was so bad. The chicken dishes were under cooked, the food did not taste like Thai food does...it was bland, tasteless and absolutely bad. I Will NEVER order food from here again!

    I love this place. Always fresh tasty food and service with a smile. The chilli fish was delicious and would also recommend the sizzling beef. Lovely cozy family atmosphere and quite reasonably priced as well.

    The food is delicious. We ordered tempura prawns and squid. They were great starters. Then for Mains we had sweet chilli chicken and masamam beef - I really recommend masamam beef curry. You have to order rice separately.. rice portion is a bit smaller than expected. Service was excellent.

    Cooper Thai servers authentic Thai cousin. Stuff was super friendly and even made us comfortable by allowing to switch tables as they saw us uncomfortable with the kid. I loved the dishes we ordered and they were yummy! This place doesn’t serve alcohol but allows to carry your own alcohol in the restaurant. Only con I felt was parking during busy hours.

    Nice cosy place with excellent food. The service is warm and friendly. It is BYOD place so keep that in mind. I wish we knew this before we dropped by. The parking is a huge challenge. We had to circle around for a long time before finding a spot and walking back 15 mins. Will I choose to go again. Yes. For the food. The squid tempura was excellent.

    Cooper Thai used to be a lovely restaurant with good quality food. We visited Cooper Thai yesterday for dinner and this was not the same restaurant I once loved. Their steam dumplings were served in a pool of soy and sweet sauce there was no taste to the dunking apart from the sweetness of the sauce. We need mentioned this to the waitress who took this away. We had 2.5 of the 4 dumpling and we assumed they would be refunding us for the dish but we were charged the full £6.50 on the bill. The egg fried rice was bland with no salt. When we asked them if it had any salt and told them it was bland the owner came out and with an attitude and said “ Your not happy with the food” you should try another Thai restaurant and then compare us. The Sizzlers were too spicy 🥵. This was probably the best dish of them all but was spoilt with the chilliness of the dish. Once a lovely restaurant but not somewhere I’ll be in a rush to visit again or recommend.

    Omg 😲 forget chain restaurants! This has to be the very best Thai food I've had in a long time. It's a small independent restaurant in Harrow serving home cooked authentic food. The place is secluded, but minutes away from the station. The Tom Yum Soup, Thai Green Curry (Chicken) & Pork Pad Thai was exceptional 👌 If I had the chance to go again I'd go for sure! It's a must go place, and you got to try it to believe it!

    We normally get takeaway but decided to eat in. Food was good as always, we paid and left. The waiter came after us to advise we'd been overcharged. They brought me back in, refunded the difference!! I'd never have known so left them an extra tip..... Good people. Good food.

    I have ordered through UberEats . The soup was fresh and tasty . However , the prawns noodles were old , smelly (went off) . Also there were only 3 prawns in it and big chunks of eggs . My body rejected it so had to put it to the bin and I hate wasting food . It’s like throwing away your money to the bin . I ordered first time from this place and I will not order it again .

    A nice little restaurant. And I do mean little. There is not enough room to swing a cat in this place. Me and my better half were seated in a back room which was the size of a bedroom in a small terraced house. As for the food, it was surprisingly good, given the location and size of this restaurant. The starter platter we ordered was great and a big portion too. I chose the stir fry with prawns for my mains, I loved it. The food didn't stay on my plate for long, that's how much I liked it. The service was good and efficient and the staff are friendly. It was our first time in this restaurant so I was unaware that they do not have an alcohol licence, which is a shame. However, you can bring your own booze. If you live in the Wealdstone area and haven't already been here, try this restaurant.

    A homey vibe and very accommodating staff that makes you feel special.. It’s our first time to visit as it was highly recommended by locals. Would highly recommend the papaya salad and chicken satay which comes with peanut sauce (to die for).. I just forgot to ask if they sold separately as they were very good. Pad Thai was good but I hope I could have an option to mix with other proteins. Would definitely come back!👌👌👌

    Go there for the food! There is no vibe, the place is tiny and the tables are too close to each other. Also you could tell that the waiter is still learning and possibly underpaid. The food was great though and I would definitely go back for it.

    The coconut chicken soup and Tom yum khung were fantastic, so do the appetisers. The pineapple fry rice and pad Thai were as traditional as the restaurants Thailand. The staffs were super nice and proactive, say they found us ate off the bread for the duck roll, they refilled for us immediately

    Great spot for lunch. Tried it for the first time a few weeks ago and went for the second time. Food is good and it's reasonable. You should also ask for some chilli oil, so good to mix it in the food

  • 4/5 Dip G. 2 months ago on Google • 42 reviews New
    Great family run place and have been here multiple times. Great to byob however the prices do justify the increased markup in the food. The starters were very mixed and very oily. Mains were very great especially the Thai and Masamman curries. Only improvement I ask is to staff to stop smoking at the back as the smell comes to the restaurant.

    Delicious food and great value for money. I would recommend anything on the menu. My friend and I opted for the set menu option 1 and got a lot of variety for £25 each. Absolutely amazing 🤩

    Das Essen war super. Wir haben ein paar Tage später noch mal Essen bestellt. Da war der Geschmack nicht so toll. Ein Gericht war viel zu scharf. Ich schätze Sonntags ist da sehr viel los, und die haben bestimmt auch verschiedene Köche...

    Amazing food, Amazing Service! One of the best Thai restaurants located in Harrow.

  • 5/5 Leila J. 1 year ago on Google
    My first experience of this absolute amazing restaurant where my mum took me for a birthday treat. The food was fresh, hot, spicy and very tasty! I felt that I was eating home cooked and really delicious food. The staff are so friendly and the service was impeccable.

  • 4/5 Nitin D. 1 year ago on Google
    We had vegetarian dishes only and they were amazing, I give it 10 out of 10. I'd definitely recommend this restaurant to vegetarians. The only down side was that the restaurant does not have central heating so it was sooooo cold in there. There were stand alone heaters dotted around but they weren't heating the space properly and everytime the front door opened there was an icy blast of air coming in so we asked to be moved to another area which was better. That said it did not spoil our evening as the food and service was excellent, I'd given the restaurant 5 stars if it wasn't for the lack of heating.

    Ordered about 10 times over the last few months from this place from Deliveroo. Genuinely good food for a reasonable price. Haven't had any issues at all and feel the need to commend these guys.

  • 3/5 Dimple 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered a few dishes this evening, the red curry and chicken satay were tasty, but the papaya salad was not great, tasted as if it was made yesterday, the colour was dark and didn't look fresh or taste it...very disappointed.

  • 5/5 Ajay Upadhyaya U. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Ayden A. 2 years ago on Google
    This restaurant gives superb service and delicious meals. My favourite place in the area. The meals arrived quick and the prices are economical. I recommend this place.

  • 5/5 Brock S. 2 years ago on Google
    two days ago was our first time in this restaurant. But It is surely not the last. We enjoyed the evening a lot with the attentive service, with the fine cooking and fine drinks and with the comfortable charge. We will absolutely return there again.

  • 3/5 Rajat T. 2 years ago on Google
    We tried it once food seemed to be heavily influenced by Gujarati cuisine as the dishes were too sweet to our liking. Unless I don’t know much about Thai food. Sorry 😕

  • 1/5 Rashmi P. 2 years ago on Google
    Whilst the food is reputed to be good, I was disappointed with the service today, New Year's Eve. I called ahead at lunchtime to make sure they were open for evening delivery orders. Note, there is no nearby street parking. I then placed an order at 6pm and specified delivery at 7.20pm -giving them sufficient time. The food arrived at 9.30pm....over 2 hours late. There was no goodwill gesture to remedy other than a future offer of a discount of 10%......that's presumptuous. My family and guests were so hungry, we just wolved down the food.
