    Get a small pot of curry and rice for under £5, but they close at 7PM on weekdays. Still, if it’s sunny you can get it to go and eat it at the waterpark in the middle of the Barbican!

    Fantastic food. Tastes better than a lot of so called authentic Thai restaurants. I quite enjoy the Phad Thai chicken, but the beef curry and the green curry are excellent too.

    One of the best thai green curries I have ever had. Be prepared, it is spicy, nothing like the supermarket stuff. The lady who served me was really nice and friendly, so I will be back soon! :)

    Go for the Pad Thai and some crackers for lunch under £5, or Red Thai curry with butternut squash if you fancy some rice. Staff are friendly too!

    Occasionally offer a Massaman Curry. If you get the chance, buy many many, many of them. Heaven.

    The only difference to a Bangkok food stand is that what will cost you 50p in Bangkok will cost £5 at Grab, but it's the same great taste

    This place is amazing. New Thai streetfood. Hope it works. Could be the next itsu but way better. They were queuing out the door today. Love the curries. Mmmmmm

    Exit 4 @ Old Street station, head down the road with 'Pod' on your left. It's the first left! The Green Thai curry is spicy but AMAZING!

    Almost all dishes are nice and good price. Noodles sometimes overcooked...

    The tofu Pad Thai is best in my opinion followed closely by the green chicken curry.

    Love the Penang Curry on brown rice here. Watch out for the annoying £5 minimum card order though.

    Mushroom Fresh Rolls are amazing but the Pad Thai is disappointing, very little tofu/veg and too sickly.

    it is OK to just fulfill my spicy food passion, but not satisfy for the taste. There is no Thai staff here.

    Don't use chopsticks to eat rice out of a pot, it's silly! Grab yourself a spoon instead.

    Our new favourite lunch stop. No need to trek down City Road to Itsu for a noodly fix.

    Always busy but never good. Like warm noodles, tough beef and expensive.

    Had the Pad Thai, it was pretty average with way too many noodles, not much meat or veg.
