The best restaurants serving Thai food in Abingdon Kensington and Chelsea London

Nice little place that is different to the usual London restaurant nowadays. Papaya Tree feels more homely, more real, where warm owners invite you into their small dining room to share a piece of Thai culture. I tried the pad kaprow and it was OK. Of course it isn’t going to taste like in Bangkok. They use normal basil and not Thai basil, and their use of chili is different, but it’s expected in London. It was still decent. The lunch special is also good value for money considering the location. I’d definitely return to try their Som tam, Massaman and Thai iced tea.

A Peruvian woman with a Slovak man eating Thai food in London. We really liked the place. Some details could improve but overall, a pleasant experience.
