Nestled a bit off the beaten path in Bicester, Cabbages & Condoms is a hidden gem for those in search of Thai cuisine. The restaurant itself boasts a charming and inviting atmosphere, making it a delightful spot to dine, albeit easy to miss if you're not on the lookout. As a fan of Thai food, I had high hopes and the menu certainly offered all the traditional dishes you'd expect. The service here was lovely, with attentive and friendly staff, which added a nice touch to the dining experience. We started with a mixed appetiser, followed by a Thai green curry, and rounded off with some desserts. The portion sizes were reasonable across the board. However, the food quality varied; while the main dishes were good—very average to slightly above average—the papaya salad was a bit of a letdown. It seemed a little tired, perhaps not as fresh as one would hope for, which was a disappointment given its usual vibrancy in flavor and texture. Overall, Cabbages & Condoms offers a decent dining experience with some hits and misses. It’s worth a visit if you're in the area and craving Thai, just keep your expectations in check regarding some of the dishes.

Nice surroundings, pleasant staff until you give them you honest opinion of the food let alone not order dessert 😂. My portion was a good size and looked pleasant to the eye but had no flavour and meat wasn’t tender which shocked me for a Thai restaurant. My wife’s plate was 70% batter ( see photo which shows what was left )with hardly any chicken again lacked any flavour. When the owner asked how the food was halfway through and I told him he ignored my comments and didn’t return until time to pay, no apology or attempt to resolve the issue. Needless to say we won’t return. The B C Thai just round the corner has delicious food even if the decor is a little tired. We thought we would try somewhere different but left hungry and dissatisfied.

It wasn’t as quite bad as some of the horror stories I’ve read on here (service was ok), however the meal was disappointing and overpriced. The chicken was a strange texture, certainly not fresh and some of it looked off. Veg was fresh, but there wasn’t a huge amount of flavour to the meal and quite dry. Doesn’t compare to what I had in their branches in Thailand. It didn’t come with rice you had to order that separately - bit cheeky. I’d hoped this would be authentic Thai food but sadly it’s a poor immitation at inflated prices.
