When you walk into The Thai Orchid for the first time, you will discover an oriental "oasis" with sumptuous surroundings that carefully blend enchanting thai carvings with colourful artefacts and a profusion of tropical plants, together with luxurious hand-carved teak furniture, silver cutlery, fine glass and china dinnerware.
 
We are proud to serve a vast array of wonderful, authentic dishes from all over Thailand. All of our food is meticulously prepared using traditional thai ingredients and fresh produce - all served by courteous and enthusiastic thai staff who, dressed in traditional silk, are always pleased to serve you in the true traditions of thai culture.
 
Open every day of the week, we offer a delicious choice of value-for-money dishes from our Express Lunch menu from Monday to Saturday. And on Sundays you can treat yourself to "eat as much as you wish" from our magnificent Buffet Lunch. This includes a mouth-watering variety of thai dishes, plus often a few special dishes from Japan or Malaysia too, not to mention traditional English meat.

During the evenings we provide an extensive A La Carte Menu including a wonderful selection of exquisite dishes, such as our magnificent banquets, succulent river prawns, a wide choice of vegetarian meals and tempting home-cooked desserts.

We are fully licensed to serve drinks too.

Our family-owned business originated over forty years ago in Bangkok where our restaurant became an award-winning establishment favoured by local politicians and celebrities. The eldest grandson, Vichai Kharmakharm, ventured out to England and in 1986 opened his first Thai Orchid Restaurant in Banbury. Six talented brothers and sisters gradually joined Vichai to help expand the business and gain an enviable reputation, whilst capturing the culinary hearts of local people right across the Midlands and beyond. The group now consists of 14 stylish venues spreading from Birmingham to Maidenhead.

We welcome parties and business lunches, so please contact us to discuss your specific requirements during our normal opening times or pop in to meet us at your convenience.

We look forward to serving you soon.
