There is nothing authentic about this place, consider how authentic the food is from the sweet peppers to the frozen peas in the green curry - I don't think I've ever seen green peas in a Thai dish in Thailand before. Came here with a few friends, ordered the green curry which the chicken was over cooked, Pad Thai was... More

I've been to the Wrestlers many times, at different times of the day. The food always tastes good and the service is quick, but the prices are quite high at almost £10 for a simple Thai curry in what's not a great setting. The place is drab, and there's not a very warm welcome and we were ignored on leaving... More

Given the good reviews on TA, we decided to finally give it a go as we pass by it almost regularly. It fits the description of other reviewers that it is an unusual setting, thai food in a pub! However, having eaten in a number of Thai places (did I say that Thai food is my favourite?) I found that... More

I eat here often as it's got great food at a great price. Don't be fooled by its exterior or location. It is definitely worth a visit Food is cheap fast and very tasty. The added bonus is the real ales it serves. Yes it isn't the best looking and yes its tables are often sticky but the fact that... More

Just a pub but for years this has been the place to go for Thai food. Nothing fancy but food is always good.

We've been going here once a month for over a year with a group of friends and have never been disappointed. The staff is friendly and the food is great. You can't go wrong with the thai green curry or the pud thai (#1 & #18 I think). It's more of a restaurant than pub atmosphere, but they and they... More

The single best thai food in cambridgeshire. We are lucky to work only 10 minute walk from here, and have spent many a lunchtime in here. Recommend reservation for lunch time (5 people minimum) Cheap (under 10 quid a plate) and the decor is cheap/cheerful, but the real ale, and great food make it 100% better

Thai food and the typical on-tap brews. It's well-kept, but the combination of real ale and Thai food was not for me. The location is also not optimal - opposite a group of car parks near a Tesco?

We'd never heard about pubs serving Thai food. Turns out it's common now, but The Wrestlers was the first in Cambridge. Family-owned pub serving excellent Thai food for a couple of decades, I believe. Charming pub atmosphere. The food goes great with beer and cider!
