The lovely Thai restaurant in Oxford, Giggling Squid combines wow-factor decor – bold colours and vibrant botanicals – with a warm atmosphere and friendly service. Not forgetting the food, fresh, authentic and cooked by expert Thai chefs!

Giggling Squid restaurant in Oxford city centre is located in the heart of city’s historic Jericho area, on bustling Walton Street, with its cocktail bars, global eateries and the Phoenix Picturehouse a few steps away. It’s just a 15 minute stroll to the station too!

Each dish – from the famous Salt & Pepper Squid to crowd-pleasing Sticky Chicken – it is a work of love, exploring Thailand’s richness of natural ingredients from the land and sea and crafted by expert Thai chefs.

Giggling squid is one of our go to places to eat when we’re out and about. Their Oxford branch didn’t disappoint we were greeted by Hannah and seated straight away without a booking even though they were quite busy. Our drinks order was taken straight away while we studied the menu. We had veggie spring rolls to start, Samui seafood and veggie massaman curry with jasmine rice washed down with a bottle of Chang lager. All was very tasty and served with a smile. Thank you Hannah and the rest of the giggling squid Oxford team

We went for valentines dinner at the giggling squid. There was a fair queue when we arrived which was surprising for a late booking (8:45pm) but it was dealt with as quickly as they could. Restaurant lovely staff great only putting a 4 star as it was a little slow at points and stopping a waiter to get second round of drinks was alittle tricky but otherwise staff were lovely just very busy. Victoria our waitress was very nice and bless it was a bit of dramatic night. But the food was stunning! Absolutely beautiful full of flavour and worth every very reasonable penny. We had the pork skewers and the one bite salmon, the pork was nice the sauce elevated it a lot. The one but salmon though was sublime. For mains we had the Thai melting beef which was superb completely melting packed with flavour. We also had the Thai hake which was one of the best Thai dishes I’ve ever had it was beautiful the flavours were just out of the world. We also had the pak choi and tenderstem and the Tom yum rice. The rice wasn’t as exciting as it sound but still very nice the pak Choi beautifully cooked. Absolutely wonderful night we recommend the Chang beer also to go with you main course they also had a great range of interesting cocktails which was nice to differ from the norm! Great place loved it I’m sure we’ll be back!!!

The food was overpriced, first of all. The green curry was too thin like soup and needs a thicker consistency. The roti was like a pancake and not like a true roti. The cider was excellent. The meal was OK - not fantastic. I lived in Thailand for 8 years and so I've eaten my fair share of green curries - I like to think I'm qualified to speak on the matter.
