Beyond the Roast: A Thai Twist on the Spring Bank Holiday

There is a comfortable rhythm to a British bank holiday, and the roast is a big part of it. Every so often, though, it is worth breaking the pattern. Thai food brings colour and freshness to a long weekend without much effort on your part.

A lighter long weekend

After a winter of heavy food, spring is the moment for brighter plates. Thai cooking leans on herbs, citrus and fresh vegetables, so a meal of papaya salad, grilled satay and a light curry feels like a reset rather than a slump on the sofa.

Is Thai food good for groups?

It is one of the best cuisines for a crowd. Everything is built to share, so a big table can order widely and pass the plates around. That makes it ideal for the kind of unhurried gathering a bank holiday is made for.

Make the most of the day off

Whether you fancy a long lunch or a relaxed dinner, there is a Thai Square to suit. Have a look at the menu, round up your people, and book a table before the weekend fills up.
