Thai Express - Chancery Lane


If you're exploring Fleet Street, Holborn and Temple and want something more exotic than a pub lunch which will be served quickly and keep you happily filled until a late dinner pop into this little Thai lunch spot on Chancery Lane. It's very popular with the local business men and women who need to get a good lunch in 30-40 minutes, but it's not a place where you'll be rushed out the door if you've got the time to hang around. Don't worry if you pop in and it seems full, there's a 70 seat area downstairs!

There's a special lunch deal where you choose your meat type (duck and seafood cost a pound more), then pick either a rice-based curry dish or a noodle-based stir fry dish from 5-7 pounds. Throw in a special offer starter, pork satay, spring rolls or a hot and sour soup and you still won't be paying more than about £10-£12 per head. There's the usual green and red thai curry, but also a sweet and creamy yellow curry with lemongrass and coconut milk packed with peppers. The ginger and spring onion stir-fry is well-balanced and portions in general are generous. 

The only slight let down are the spring rolls, the usual frozen, deep friend shtick. But the mains are filling, tasty and attractive.

They organize business lunches and catering.
