I loved this place! The food was delicious and the staff was very nice! One of my favorite places that I've gone in London!
I have never been to the Rusty Bike - so this review is only based on our take-out experience through Uber Eats. My fiancee and I have our go-to items here: vegetable spring rolls to share, the jantaburi pad thai for me (interesting mix with the apples and crab meet and it's spicy and amazing!!!) and the basil chili fried rice for him. Food is always fresh and hot and amazing when we receive it - and I won't ever order Thai from anywhere else!
Finally checked this place out, I live very nearby and when we fancied eating out on a Sunday evening we thought we'd give it a go. It was a pleasant warm evening and they had the front doors/windows open fully. The food smelt lovely as soon as we walked in and the friendly waitress sat us at a table for two. This place is tiny, like 6-8 tables tiny. It's obviously more of a takeaway place, judging by the amount of deliveroo and just eat drivers coming and going past our table. We ordered a starter of Thai prawn crackers and duck spring roll to share, which were delicious. The rolls were hot and fresh, not greasy like spring rolls can be and a with tasty dipping sauce. On to the mains, which were brought out quickly. I opted for stir fried chilli and basil beef with coconut rice and my partner had the Pad See Ew. Both of which looked gorgeous HOWEVER beware.....this is not food for weak Caucasian mouths like ours. Neither of us are wimps but we could see both our dishes were absolutely covered with small bits of red chilli and seeds. We were embarrassed by our patheticness and made a valiant effort to eat as much as possible because beyond the heat the meal had nice flavour and the vegetables were crunchy just as I like them. The coconut rice was sticky and not too coconutty - can be sickly otherwise. Eventually we could take no more and decided once our noses started running and brows needed mopping we should give up. The waitress was happy to box up what was left and we grabbed the bill. Meal for two with starters and drinks was £30. The place itself is rustic with corrugated iron roof, shelves of drinks, oils and sauces and homely (if slightly incongruously Americana in style) signs with mottos. This is a cute spot for a Thai meal but probably not if you're wimps like us! Sadly, I'd be hesitant to eat here again but would still recommend to others.
Great new place in Mile End! Loads of seating outside which is amazing for the summer time. I would say its not your average drink place too. They serve some standard ones and some South East Asian Beer. YES! Thai food too!
This place is still pretty new and always awkwardly empty. Most people seem to get take-out (Deliveroo driver hotspot). But the food is delicious! My favourite dish is the sea bass with chilli and basil, but the other day I tried to order it for delivery and was told it was no longer on the menu. Hope that was a misunderstanding, otherwise - bring it back! I'd say for the average Thai restaurant in London, the dishes are on the spicy side -- which I love! Great atmosphere and tiny bottles of champagne available.
