Thai Corner - Bury

I was really looking forward to ordering from here. There aren't many Thai restaurants nearby and this had been in my radar for some time I was shocked when the salt and pepper tofu turned up, and it was stone cold and in tiny containers. Usually, the standard is to put them in a large container but it was tiny. It had about 5 prices of tofu in and it was so cold I had to reheat it which turned it rubbery. The standard of it wasn't even great. The chips were the same and expensive, they were just warm ups thrown with some onions and carrots. The Thai yellow curry went straight in the bin, as it had about 5 tablespoons of salt in it. This is the worst curry I've ever had, and I have no idea how on earth that much salt ends up inside a dish. Is there no tasting of the food before it's slopped into a container? There's zero love and passion in the food and it shows. Shocking, avoid at all costs. What a waste of 34 quid. Overpriced isn't even the word. I'm angry I've wasted so much on absolute rubbish. Seems to be the standard these days.

Don't be fooled by these reviews service was bad sat at a table for 10 mins and was given a menu. Waited another 10 mins and then went to the counter to order. The place is dirty with no staff presence and no atmosphere. I ordered salt and pepper chips, crispy prawns and crisy chicken with fried rice, Well, the dishes came far placed. Salt and Pepper chips first, hard and frozen no sign of the salt and pepper experience just a few random carrot shavings and a bit of onion. Prawns were overcooked and where rubbery. The crisy chicken was dry and overcooked the rice tasted soggy and old with a funny taste. Avoid at all cost. Because you pay before you eat and no one ask you how the food was. could not wait to leave, My mum was very ill awards and had to go home.

On arrival to the restaurant we were told to just take a seat and sort out ourselves moving tables as we came in a group of 5. We were handed menus and we then went up to order our food at the counter. The woman who was putting our order through was a newly employed member of staff and so was taking a little long than expected but this was no issue to us as i work in the restaurant buisness myself and I understand how stressful it can be. However this lady, not her fault, had been thrown into the job untrained and unaware of how to use the till. Another lady then approached who seemed to be more experienced and helper her, however she then turned to us and told us in a very rude manner how we needed to order properly as the first lady didn’t understand. It was very off putting how she spoke to us and she came across as very rude. The food arrived in a very strange order and we all ended up eating separately to one another. The food itself was absolutely disgusting and so disappointing. Me and my friend shared a crispy chicken chow mien and it arrived hot (probably the only good thing about it). The noodles were unflavoured and stodgy and the chicken tasted very similarly to rubber. It had clearly been recooked about 4 times as it was chewy and honestly i was mostly concerned about my teeth after eating a piece. Me and my friends have been looking forward to trying this place for the last year or so however i am greatly disappointed and would not recommend to anyone. The staff were rude, the restaurant was dirty and the food was absolutely disgusting!!

When I first moved to Bury a few years ago I stumbled on this place and loved the authentic cuisine as I love Thai food. It was a hidden gem and I treated myself whenever I was in Bury. Unfortunately the quality of the food has gone down hill and I'm hoping it's a one off but I'm not sure. It's always been quirky order from counter, pay in cash, mismatched cutlery toilet paper serviettes but the food more than made up for it (in the past). My husband and I had the chicken satay and the vegetable spring rolls to start and both were burnt and nothing special. Very disappointing. I had the Thai Basil Chilli Minced Pork with steamed rice and a fried egg which was the best of the food we had and although I thought the portion was smaller it was still quite tasty. My husband's Chicken Massaman curry with egg fried rice he said was disappointing and not up to the usual standard (it was always his favourite). All in all a real shame and expensive for what we got. Hopefully I'll read some good reviews again soon and try again in a few months but I feel I can't recommend to my friends like I used to. I wish we had more Thai restaurants in Bury!

Authentic Thai street food served in lovely quaint surroundings that resembles a genuine Thai restaurant that wouldn't look out of place on Khoasan Road. Friendly staff, reasonable prices, and well worth a visit!
