About this restaurant

Eating out is more than just food. It is about atmosphere, about ambience. The evening starts when you enter our premises and ends as you leave. We have instilled some of Thailand’s history, culture, and beliefs into creating the perfect authentic feel for you. The décor, the artefacts, and all the staff in their traditional Thai silk. This together should complement the colourful, sophisticated, yet very natural Thai cuisine.
Our ethos, at The Blue Orchid, is to provide sumptuous Thai cuisine enclosed in complete authentic Thai ambience. Live, eat, breathe Thai.

    Food looked good and was adequately cooked, but lacked the wonderful flavours of authentic Thai dishes. Compared with the Blue Orchid at Aspley Guise (or the Bangkok Lounge at Shefford), this was dismally disappointing, and very far from the Thai food of Thailand. Apart (briefly) for one other diner, we were alone in the large dining room; until I indicated that it should be changed, the music was international pop rather than melodic Thai; poor ambience; man and lady who served at table were polite and efficient. I worked and travelled in Thailand in winter for several years, have visited 30 times and until recently had a wonderful Thai wife, so I do know what I'm talking about. We were not given the Thai food that we had hoped for.
