ShangThai Express

ShangThai on King Street is one of the few places in Huddersfield town centre dedicated to Thai and Chinese cooking under one roof. The menu covers Thai green and red curries, pad-thai-style noodle dishes, aromatic soups and a Chinese section that includes crispy duck and stir-fries. Both dine-in and takeaway are available, and the restaurant earns a reputation for getting busy on weekend evenings — booking ahead is advisable. The King Street location puts it within easy reach of the railway station and the New Street bar quarter, making it a practical choice before or after an evening out. Vegetarian-friendly, with a good range of plant-based Thai dishes that stand up in their own right rather than functioning as afterthoughts. A distinct and popular option in the town-centre food scene.
