Lek's Thai Food - Chelmsford

You can sit in here or Baan Noodle 30 feet away, same people same food can be ordered from either menu. It’s Thai street food and it’s the real thing, nice bubble milk tea too. It’s not an evening place as it’s within the Market so shuts around 4pm Recommended lunch spot.

I always have the jungle curry,spicy and full of flavour. A big bowl with rice on the side. Great on a cold day. Had the pad Thai before also amazing.

This market stall has always brought a smile to my face when I eat there. The food is excellent and so is the service. This week I had the vegetable curry and rice for £6.99 it was not just good value but a lovely meal.

We have travelled extensively in the Far East, and our meal here today was as close to the genuine thing in Thailand as we have ever had. Many Thai restaurants in the UK tone down the flavours to meet the more delicate European palate. This place will tone it down if asked, otherwise you will get excellent Thai food as with all the flavours of Thailand (including hot chillis . Don’t be embarrassed to ask for “not too spicy”, is absolutely no problem. If you want to really impress them , ask for “Mai Phet” (pronounced “My pet”! .

Amazing love this place, come to Lek’s all the time with my wife and kids. The food and service is brilliant. Lovely to come and sit outside to Relax and enjoy the food in the summer under the shade of the trees. My only wish is that this was a full time restaurant and not restricted by the market times.
