Reviews Overview
Most Liked
The most liked aspect of Tams is undoubtedly the authenticity of the food. Reviews often highlight the real flavors found in dishes like Pad Kra Prow and Thai Green Curry. Portions here are generous, giving great value for the price range of £10-20. Many patrons also rave about the cozy, casual atmosphere. It’s the ideal spot for enjoying a meal with friends or unwinding after a long day.
The availability of healthy options and vegan plates has made it a popular choice among health-conscious diners. Regulars appreciate the staff’s friendliness, which adds to the overall experience. People also enjoy their little shop offering home cooking ingredients, making it a go-to location for Asian food lovers. No wonder Oswestry residents and travelers keep returning!
Most Disliked
Some reviews mention that the atmosphere can be a bit too quiet at times, especially during evenings. While it contributes to a relaxed vibe, it might not resonate with those seeking a more vibrant dining experience. There have also been comments regarding the initial service. While food quality shines, occasional awkwardness from staff has been noted, like a lack of friendliness from certain chefs.
Lastly, peak times like Saturday lunch can lead to significant crowds, which means reserving a table is a good idea to avoid waiting. While not a dealbreaker for most, patience might be required during busier hours, especially on the weekends when many locals and travelers flock to indulge in Tams’ delicious offerings.

A lovely meal was cooked and served here, but it was awkwardly quiet. The front desk chef wasn’t friendly but answered questions when asked. I wasn't quite settled, but I was determined to have a different taste for a meal. There was one other chef who gave a smile, which helped, but we quickly had our meals and left. If it's a meal you want, be sure to visit, their prices are fair too.

Dropped by Tams for dinner, driving from Northern Wales to the West Midlands. On Google Maps it seemed like the best restaurant on that route, and it genuinely was phenomenal. The town itself was dead quiet that Sunday evening, but Tams was lively and cozy. The food was top notch too. Drop by Tams if you’re going through Oswestry, you won’t regret it.

Have always loved Tams. I used to live in Oswestry and used to get Tams all the time. Lovely flavourful food, lovely people and somewhere to sit and eat if you wish. They even have a little shop with Asian food to buy for home cooking. It is always very clean there, the kitchen is too. I returned to eat there tonight years after moving away. Same friendly ladies, same lovely food. If you like Thai food, this place is perfect. Lovely place to eat for a spectrum foodie. 🙃

My family and I had a fantastic experience at the Tam's in Oswestry! We were blown away by the authentic flavors and expertly prepared dishes. The Tun Yum was a standout, perfectly seasoned and with just the right amount of spice. The service was exceptional, with friendly and attentive staff who made us feel right at home. We also loved the fruit bubble tea, featuring some unique and delicious drinks. Overall, we highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for amazing dining experience in Oswestry.
