Real Thai cooking for Brighton diners

When you're choosing where to eat, you want more than a menu that sounds good on paper. At Sabai Thai, we cook from scratch and to order on our own premises, using traditional recipes shaped by Gina Horsham's Chiang Mai heritage. Recent trust has been backed by a May 2025 award, 2024 TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice recognition and Top 3 status from Three Best Rated since 2015. That gives you a better reason to book lunch, dinner or takeaway with confidence.

The Best Thai In Brighton

Settle in, eat well and keep plans easy

A visit to Sabai Thai can be quick when time is tight or unhurried when you want to linger. Our North Street restaurant sits close to the Royal Pavilion, Theatre Royal, Brighton Dome and Pavilion Gardens, making us a handy choice for locals and visitors. Inside, Thai music, a Buddha waterfall and Thai-inspired surroundings set a calm tone, while lunch deals, tapas, group bookings, festive reservations, collection and delivery give you practical choice. We welcome well-trained dogs, and we are open on bank holidays. Fresh ingredients and locally sourced produce where possible guide every service at Sabai Thai.
