Most Disliked
While May's Thai Takeaway excels in many areas, a few aspects leave some diners wanting more. The cash-only policy can be inconvenient for those unprepared, especially since it lacks card payment facilities. Although an ATM is nearby, some may find it annoying to step out mid-meal just to grab cash. Additionally, the café does not serve dinner, which may disappoint those craving late-night Thai fixings. Diners looking for a more upscale experience might feel the casual ambiance is too laid-back for special occasions, given the eatery's traditional café roots. Lastly, a few customers have mentioned that the spice levels—while authentic—can sometimes be a bit extreme, leading to a not-so-great surprise for those unaccustomed to Thai heat!

After a search I managed to get across May's Thai Takeaway. Wanted some good thai food. Had thai food previously but this place has it best of what I had until now. Delicious food and cooked to order. Definately will go back to have some more and taste all they have available. Even dishes served to other customers looked very appealing and delicious. Keep the good work and freshness of food.

Amazing food. However, when they say spicy they mean it. Nearly caused a nosebleed it was that hot.

The food is fantastic, the service is great and the atmosphere is nice when eating in. Just bear in mind it’s cash only, but there’s a coop down the road that has an ATM. Looking forward to going back and trying more!

Great Thai food at great prices. Always beautiful flavours at what looks like a traditional cafe, and they do sell traditional fry ups! They are also open traditional cafe hours too, so you can't go for an evening meal unfortunately. Drinks are cafe style too, tea, coffee and pop.

Superb food at a great price. Very flavoursome and decent portions. Only bad thing is it's so popular so had to eat in car. 175 miles from home but I'd like to go again.
