Chang Thai Take Away

Chang Thai on Kirkland is one of Kendal's longer-established Thai takeaways, operating from a small unit on this quiet road south of the town centre. The Panang curry is singled out in reviews as a dish worth ordering — rich and fragrant, with the depth of flavour that distinguishes genuine Thai cooking from approximations. A fixed menu for two offers good value for couples who want a range of dishes. The operation is small and capacity is limited, so regulars recommend phoning ahead on Friday and Saturday evenings. Kirkland's residential character makes Chang Thai a neighbourhood discovery rather than a high-street destination, and the Thai Kitchen in Lakeland has emerged as stronger competition in recent years, but Chang Thai retains loyalty among Kendal residents who have been eating here for years.
