The Lime Leaf

You'll find The Lime Leaf tucked away on London Street, just far enough from the town centre bustle to feel like a proper find. This is the kind of place where they're not mucking about with fusion nonsense — you're getting authentic Thai done properly, with cooks who understand their craft. The kitchen takes spice seriously, so if you ask for four chillis, you'll get four chillis, and they'll ask if you actually want that. The room itself is unpretentious, focused entirely on the food rather than Instagram aesthetics, which feels increasingly rare.
