When you walk into a [traditional English country pub] in the heart of Berkshire, you expect a warm fire, a cold pint of [cask ale], and a friendly welcome. At The Jolly Farmer in Hurst, you get all of that—but with a delicious, aromatic secret waiting in our kitchen. While many places offer “Thai-style” dishes, finding authentic Thai food near Reading and Wokingham can be a challenge. So, what makes the Thai kitchen here at The Jolly Farmer different? It all comes down to the three pillars of Thai cooking: Balance, Freshness, and Tradition. The Art of the Four Flavours Authentic Thai cuisine is a delicate dance between four essential taste profiles: Sweet, Sour, Salty, and Spicy. Our chefs, trained in traditional techniques, ensure that every dish—from our creamy Thai Green Curry to our signature Pad Thai in Hurst—hits every note perfectly. We don’t believe in “watering down” flavors; we believe in showcasing the vibrant spirit of Thailand right here in the RG10 area. Fresh Ingredients, Local Setting We believe that the best food starts with the best ingredients. By combining high-quality local produce with imported Thai herbs and spices like galangal, lemongrass, and Thai basil, we create a dining experience in Berkshire that feels like a trip to Bangkok, even if you’re just driving from Twyford or Winnersh.
