   Delicious food, service friendly and professional. I went for the sticky chicken with garlic noodles and fresh Thai salad- amazing! Accommodated our large group with no problems. Always love to eat here

   A catchy name and a really lovely interior The menu offers a good selection of Thai dishes, with enough variety for different tastes. We started with the Salt & Pepper Squid, which was okay — decent flavour but nothing standout. For mains, the Massaman Curry was extremely tasty. The Giggling Pad Thai was fair, enjoyable but not particularly memorable. The Marinated Steak & Crispy Slow-Cooked Beef dish had great flavour, however, for something described as “slow-cooked,” I expected the meat to be more tender; it was slightly chewier than it should be. To finish, the lava cake was very, very good — rich, warm, and delicious. If you add to this couple of drinks (wine and beer) you can get arround 100£...

   Thai food is defo not my go to food choice, so when I was invited along as part of a work group to this restaurant I was wary of what my experience would be. But given this is in my home town and this place is often so busy set just on the high street I gave it a go. The first thing I would say is how pretty the restaurant is. They always have an amazing way of lighting up the main entrance from the street which at this time of year in the run up to xmas looks great, and inside it does not disappoint. There is a spacious array of seating and with stunning decorations and a really welcoming atmosphere. Staff were very friendly and helpful enabling us as a group to get settled and order drinks ahead of everyone arriving. Menu has a good selection of starters and mains, with lots to offer. That said I did struggle to find pure vegetarian only options as most dishes have either fish, chicken or beef content. The group chose to grab some sharing starters which came out in huge baskets and looked very impressive together with a series of dipping sauces. The veg spring rolls were excellent as were the sauces and my colleagues richly enjoyed the squid and meats. Equally the side dish of chick peas which were fried were surprisingly good as a snack too. I chose the chicken & mustard main course in the end which was in a coconut sauce with veg. Was very tasty and filling. All of the dishes others had ordered looked well presented and were quickly eaten such was the enjoyment. The temptation of a chocolate melt in the middle pudding with ice cream, perhaps not too Thai I know was too great to miss and was lush. Overall, this was a pleasant surprise for someone that has always avoided Thai food. Not sure it will be my go to choice of foods but that said the experience was very nice, and for those in the group that enjoy this cuisine they loved it. Restaurant is in Warwick town centre, so lots of street parking, most of which if not free after 5pm will require Ringo payment. Free Wi-FI in the restaurant was very welcome as phone signals in the town are not great.

   I went with a group of friends and we had a sharing platter for starters which was very tasty and varied - there was something for everyone. The ambience was great and the drinks equally lovely. My only negative was that the spicy chicken main was more of a side as it didn’t come with enough sauce to have with rice/ noodles but overall I really liked the vibe/decor and the food was delicious.

   Friendly staff, lovely decor, the sticky chicken was good, and so was the coconut rice. Also, they had a lovely kids pack to draw etc. The highlight was the Thai rose wine. A bit on the expensive side though in general…

   Stopped off for a quick meal on our way back from holiday... Great food and service. We had vegetarian meals all tasted great. The decorations were beautiful and setting was perfect. Easy parking around the corner too.

   It's Tuesday night, hadn't seen my mate for quite a few weeks, so time for a catch up. And of course some good food. While driving round looking for a nice place to eat, we stumbled across Giggling Squid. Menu on the door looked and sounded quite nice. So in we went. We hadn't booked in advance but that was no issue. We were seated straight away. The staff here are all very welcoming and very helpful. And omg the food. The presentation, the colours and the flavours. Wow, absolutely loved it. the jungle curry was a little spicy for me but it was so tasty it was worth ploughing through, it was that nice I even took the rest home. We will be back. All in all well worth popping in.
