Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Wow wow wow and wow again, what an amazing place, everything about Jumunjy is just perfect, the service wonderful, the food amazing, the atmosphere just right. The staff know the right amount of attention to give without being over the top, the decor is great they have really worked hard and succeeded in making it feel different authentic. The food is portioned perfectly so as to satisfy but not over fill, the quality was excellent, very well done to all the staff including those behind the scenes. To the owners you should be very proud of your staff and thank you for delivering a wonderful dining experience."
"Simply amazing!!! If you want to step into Thailand on your doorstep then this is the place to go. We are staying down here for the week and I would literally drive from Wales just to eat here again. 100% I will be coming back. Service is impeccable, food is out of this world, atmosphere is amazing and the price is extremely reasonable for the quality of food. An absolute gem of a place"
"I must say...this is the first time my partner and I tried Thai food. We didn't know what to expect. We didn't even know what to order. I had a chicken meal. Couldn't tell you what is was called. IT WAS THE BEST FOOD I'VE HAD in a very long time. The price was reasonable for this day and age. 2 beaks with 2 sides and 2 alcohol drinks. £40 per head. Absolutely fantastic. Definitely go. I wish I lived closer. The owner and staff was absolutely the best. We even said to go give congratulations to the chef. Don't miss out. Go find out for yourself."
"The whole place was magical from the moment we walked through the doors We were given Gluten free options and the staff were amazingly patient with our 10yo who was a bit fussy over spice. The fish cakes starter was perfectly cooked and flavoured and just melted in the mouth! The portion was just enough to want more, but not enough to fill you up for the main. I had the cashew stir-fry with chicken as a main, and it was to die for. Hubby was jealous, so bought a takeaway the next night. We were treated to a tour of the restaurant and bar by one of the owners and you can just feel the love and passion that has gone into the place, each piece of decoration has a story and the owners enthusiasm bleeds through. From the Lucky Budha beers drunk during renovation which are now pride of joy at the reception desk to the cafe /barn area inspired by Bim's northern Thailand village. The staff are all very friendly and knowledgeable about the food and dietary requirements (a God send for us). For 2 adults, 2 children, all with drinks (G&T's and pints of lager) starters, mains and puddings we spent just about £200, but we won't think twice about driving the 295 miles for a meal the next time holiday time/budget allows."
"We paid an impromptu visit for lunch. Jumunjy has been decorated with amazing hand built features that can escort you back to a village in a remote part of Thailand.. We loved it and although it was quiet (we were early)It was atmospheric. I can imagine it buzzing with people and great music. We have had takeaways from here but eating in is an experience..Nikki and Mark one Saturday in March.."
"We went when the main chef wasnt there so the food wasnt as good but I'm excited to go back! Staff and atmosphere are fun! Thanks"
"The most perfect food in the most perfect atmosphere and a lovely service. We are staying very nearby from this place and it was recommended by our host. Loved absolutely everything and can’t recommend any more:)"
"Delicious Thai food in a relaxed and convivial atmosphere. If you have already decided to visit the Lizard you know it’s a magical place and this makes a great stop off for lunch or post beach walk early dinner. Top flavours in the massaman and pad Thai. Monkfish fish cakes were top drawer. Definitely be back. Especially as this was an impromptu stop."
