Housed in an early 18th Century building on Coney Street – next to York’s historic Mansion House, Rosa’s Thai restaurant in York is situated a mere 5-minutes walk away from the popular York Shambles. It’s perfectly located within the city centre so you can enjoy our curries and Pad Thais after your Harry Potter tour around the historical streets.

The best Thai food in York
Rosa’s Thai York restaurant retains many of the building’s original features, from timber framing and exposed brick walls, which have been mixed with contemporary touches of plush banquettes and lacquered tiled detailing to create a warm and inviting restaurant that mixes tradition with modern Bangkok comfort. The restaurant also has an enclosed courtyard for al fresco dining in the warmer months and will be open for lunch and dinner seven days a week.
The bright and colourful Bangkok-inspired Thai dishes on our menu have been carefully created to bring you the authentic flavours of Thailand in plates designed to be shared with friends and family. You’ll find there’s plenty of choice for gluten free, meat-free, halal diners – plus an excellent children’s menu that comes with a fun activity sheet to keep the little ones entertained as you enjoy your meal.
When you’d like to steer away from the spicier flavours but still want a dish that is packed with authentic flavours, then you have to try our ever-popular Spring Rolls. The handmade spring rolls are stuffed with glass noodles stir-fried with vegetables, mushrooms, celery, spiced with turmeric and served with our own sweet chilli sauce. A truly tempting dish to share or keep all to yourself.
We know that cravings for the spicy Papaya Salad and the go-to Pad Thai can creep up on you when you least expect them, so we always try our best to accommodate walk-in diners. However, our prime York city centre location means we can get pretty busy, so book your table ahead of time to avoid disappointment.
Students, we’ve got you covered with 15% off your total food bill from Monday – Thursday, just bring your valid student card and we’ll do the rest!
If you’re not in the mood to join us at our York restaurant, you can order Thai food straight to your door or just drop by to pick up a takeaway.

The restaurant staff in particular Ms P Pookie was very helpful in introducing, taking order and serving the food. The Thai food quality is very good with original style.

First time at a Rosa's Thai, an overall good experience. The staff were friendly and the food was good, although despite asking for my pad krapow to be spicy, I then had to ask for extra chillis on the side once it arrived (that definitely did the trick though). I had been slightly put off chain Thai restaurants (mostly by the price and average food) but Rosa's is worth it, I will likely visit one of the London restaurants at some point.

We booked a table for Valentine's Day and it was busy! Service started well, but by the end of the night we struggled to get more drinks and eventually, the bill. It was very busy, so next time it might be better!The food was tasty and arrived in good time. Our drinks were OK, we went for cocktails but they weren't the best. They smelt strong but didn't feel it. This made for a weird cocktail experience, so we wouldn't probably order the same ones again.Overall, a good meal but it would have been better with faster service. But this might have just been because it was very busy!

Went there for a late lunch and was not disappointed. The drunken noodles must have been cooked with excellent wok technique. It was so flavorful and full of an aromatic charred character.

Able to accommodate a party of 7 on a busy Friday lunchtime! There were several dishes on the menu I thought I'd like. I had the sweet and sour. It was good but not excellent. Why couldn't it be excellent?

We always have a great experience at Rosa's. The food is amazing and you can't fault the service.We visited on Thursday evening for a birthday treat and once again the food was perfect (Pad Thai and Drunken Noodles 👌). Brilliant service from Ethel - very friendly and welcoming! Rosa's is one of our favourite places to eat in York ❤️

Beware of 10% of service charge. We were 3 adults and 2 toddlers and ended up paying mandatory £6.65 charge ..the food was great but their coffee machine was out of order and the dessert menu wasn't great...overall 4 star...

If dining here 3 times on a seven day trip is an endorsement, here y’go! Food was consistently delicious, drink menu serendipitous, and the service always gracious and efficient. Pockie was my server for my final visit before leaving York, and was careful to make my final impression all the more special with great recommendations, efficiency, and hospitality. Thank you, Rosa’s!
