Addie’s is an excellent value Thai restaurant, slightly away from the main drag of Earl’s Court Road, towards Kensington.

The food is authentic and well prepared, and service is both efficient and friendly. Although the only Thai eaterie in the area, it nevertheless provides very good value (around £15-20 a head, including beverages). The interior is decorated in warm, pleasing tones, giving it a very cosy ambience.

The only gripe I have is that their vegetarian selection is (in common with many Thai restaurants) rather limited, although fish enthusiasts will be spoiled for choice. It’s worth trying to book ahead if you can, as they are always very busy, and packed at week-ends.

Another excellent meal, and two courses with three bottles of wine between 4 of us came to just under £25 each, including service. They will now do tofu veggie versions of many of the main courses - just ask. Booking now seems essential even on a Monday.

We went to 100% Design at Earls Court yesterday and so had the opportunity to go back to my old stomping ground with friends.

Addie's looks very odd from the outside and based on this first impression you might choose not to go there BUT you'd be missing out!

The place is always filled with Thai people, which should give you some indication how good the food is... it's mouthwateringly delicious!

In contrast to the outside, the atmosphere inside is friendly, the menu comprehensive and the service excellent.

Whether you're a local or are just visiting the area, Addie's comes with a five-star rating in my book!

This has been my local Thai restaurant for some time now; I love it. It is informal, consistently delicious, with good service and relaxed atmosphere. The cuisine is authentic but beware! when they say 'hot' they mean 'hot'.

Prices are very reasonable at around £7 for a main course and around £3 or £4 for starters.
