Thai Pad

Thai Pad is a Thai restaurant on Leopold Place, the quiet street running off London Road near the Calton Hill end. The kitchen produces traditional Thai dishes — the signature Moo Yang is sweet marinated pork, slow-cooked and served with sticky rice — alongside green and red curries, pad thai and a range of noodle dishes. A separate takeaway operation from the same kitchen trades as Thai Pod and extends the reach beyond dine-in customers. Leopold Place sits between the eastern end of the New Town and the London Road corridor, within easy reach of the Calton Hill monument and the Meadowbank residential streets to the east. The restaurant takes reservations through OpenTable and is a well-regarded neighbourhood Thai with a solid local following among the Broughton, Canonmills and London Road catchments.
