Great vegan options

Loved the vegan options at Thaikun. The plant-based “chicken,” som tam, stir fry, and spiced chips were all full of flavor. The restaurant has a lively, street-market vibe with quirky decor that makes it fun to dine in

Pros: Great range of vegan dishes, Tasty, well-spiced food, Fun atmosphere and unique decor

Cons: Can get very busy on weekends

Great food and good vibe

One of my favourite restaurants to go out in Cambridge with friends or family. The staff are really friendly and there’s always a good atmosphere.

Edit * I’ve visited since and it’s changed so much sadly due to lack of staff.

Super tasty vegan Thai

Had the green Thai curry with vegan chicken. Super tasty and the perfect amount of spice. Several labelled vegan options including spice levels.

Terrible service

It was hard to enjoy the food when the service was so poor. We waited 2 hours for our mains and were ignored most of the time we were there, meaning we couldn't even order extra drinks. The food is tasty, but not exceptional and we were originally delivered a huge plate of meat and fish starters, which we obviously had to send back, even though we had clearly told them we were vegan several times. Additionally, the menu does have vegan options for most dishes, but communicating that we wanted the vegan option to the staff was met with confusion.

After all the problems with the meal we left with the the food in takeaway boxes, as we needed to get somewhere else and were feeling quite grumpy about the service.

Maybe worth it if you want to get takeaway, but honestly I think there are better thai restaurants in Cambridge.

Vegan takeout

I've ordered takeout from here a few times. Clearly marked vegan options, pretty good food and portions. Not the best Thai food I've ever had but pretty good.

So so

There were definitely vegan options but the food wasn’t all that good. Tasted closer to Chinese than Thai. Service needs improving as well.

Delicious curry

We had an excellent dinner at Thaikhun. The vegan options were clearly marked, and the host asked about allergies or special diets before even seating us. We had the award-winning, limited time Paenang curry and it truly was the best curry I've ever had.

Pros: Excellent tasting curry, Clearly marked vegan options

Lots of options

Loads of vegan options with most dishes being adaptable to be made VE with the addition of tofu or veg instead of meat. Good amount of GF options, too! More westernised than authentic Thai flavours, but still tasty and a good option if eating out with picky meat-eating friends that won’t go to a fully-vegan place!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, GF options

Cons: More western than authentic Thai flavours

Much more than Pad Thai

There are so many great vegan options at Thaikhun and they’re very accommodating. I never worry about accidentally getting fish sauce in the green papaya salad. Do yourself a favor and get the mango sticky rice for dessert.

Good vegan options - clearly labelled

Most dishes had the option of tofu/ vegetable instead of meat. Not all curry or noodle bases were veggie/ vegan but everything was clearly labelled and lots of choice regardless. Food was good, staff friendly and a nice location with indoor or outdoor seating.

Pros: Menu well catered to veggies/ vegans, Tasty food

Nice food, unsure of vegan options

Has a nice big vegan menu however one item was listed to contain “mince” and “oyster sauce” when asked the staff were unsure what it was and said it was a typo and insisted it was fully vegan. We did not try this dish. The food we did order came quickly and was very tasty. The sweet corn cakes for starters were a big winner here.

Pros: Decent sized vegan menu, Quick service.

Cons: Contradictory menu.

Go for the cocktails

I had a vegan pad Thai option - I'm not sure why and I've never had this before, but the noodles were swimming in a tangy tomato sauce and it just tasted awful. HOWEVER do try the good time girl cocktail because honestly it's one of the best cocktails I've ever had

Pros: Cocktails, A few vegan options

Cons: Pad Thai, Relatively expensive

Delicious Thai food

Delicious food in a cute setting. I had the pad Thai (vegan) which was really nice, and a tofu starter. The wait staff were familiar with which menu items were vegan and were friendly.

Pros: Multiple vegan options , Helpful staff

Lots of vegan items, great for sharing

This funky place is fun, good, and cheap and has lots of options for vegans. The sweet corn cakes were great, and the tom yum soup was delicious. The phad thai was fine (I have snobbish standards coming from Seattle) and I would order it again. It was fun to share all of the dishes at our table and try everything, and it was really cheap too. Oh, and the mango sorbet is vegan - yum :)

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Fun space

Cons: Service was a bit slow
