Patara is located in the very heart of London’s theatre-land and offers a contemporary Thai cuisine menu, maintaining the authentic flavours of Thai culinary excellence. Patara is about beautifully executed, contemporary Thai cuisine, elegantly presented in a relaxed and stylish environment. The chefs, all trained in Thailand, have a respect for quality ingredients and seamlessly blend eastern and western techniques to create dishes of character and depth that are not enslaved to tradition, dishes that appeal to a sophisticated European palette, with lunch including lighter options, Thai-style afternoon tea and dinner.
