We were traveling to Lake District and wanted to taste something Asian. It was too much of fish and chips + too much English lunch and dinner. We wanted to get a take away. We were offered the menu cards. The waitress was unable to explain the dish types when asked specific question about the menu. I ordered Gaeng Ba Gai(Thai jungle chicken curry). It was good. I am basically from US and have tasted at various Thai places, the chicken always accompanied rice without extra cost. We were asked to order rice separately which is unusual for us which I found is a norm in UK. Overall, little crampy place with narrow entry stairs to dine in good place but good food. Our food was perfectly mellowed to the spice level we had requested. Not giving five stars due to coldness of the waitress and unable explain the menu of her own restaurant. Customer is a big deal for me, by and large !

We fancied a break from pub food and went to Jintana in Bowness. We ordered the chicken wings as a starter and pad thai as the main course. The starter was small but nice. The pad Thai was amazing and we would highly recommend it! Nice atmosphere! :)

I’ve had a lot of good Thai cuisine in the states and this spot is probably at the bottom of my list. Absolutely terrible food. Crab cakes tasted like cold frozen chicken nuggets. The Mango margarita was a blend of kids pulpy overly sweet mango juice with a dash of tequila. Now to the main course — disaster. The jasmine rice was probably the best piece… which they forgot to bring until the end of the meal. Holy basil chicken(gai pad grapow) wasn’t even remotely close to what it’s supposed to taste like. The cook’s last job was definitely a burger flipper at the local fast food joint. Nice décor but not a quality place for food.

Amazing food and authentic taste! I’ve been to this restaurant multiple times and every time I’ve enjoyed the food immensely. I’ve got an appetite for hot food and they deliver — the rest of the party were happy too, with more«calm» options to please every palate! Recommended restaurant if your in Windermere /Bowness!

We fancied a chinese meal while staying in Windermere, but as it was Chinese New Year, most of them were shut. We passed Jintana and popped in to book a table as it was Saturday night. My hubby is a vegetarian and the menu looked gorgeous as did the smells when we went in. It was very busy and after waiting 20 minutes at our table we ordered our drinks and food. The starters were delicious when they arrived(approx 40 mins after ordering them) I had thai fishcakes which were still sizzling when they arrived with hubby having deep fried tofu. We then waited a good hour for our main courses to be delivererd(at one point the waitress asked if we had finished our meals and wanted the bill!) The main meals were nice, though not too plentiful with the side dishes of rice barely enough for one person. The bill finally arrived and was wrong but this was probably because of the business of the place. All in all, the food was lovely but we had a long wait and the service was not the best. I would recommend booking a table if it’s a weekend as we had to wait an hour.
