A Thai Restaurant
worth the drive from Snaith

Snaith sits north east of our kitchen on Copley Road - further than it looks on a map, because the River Aire and the River Don both sit in the way, so the route comes round via Rawcliffe and Ealand rather than in a straight line. Travel time depends on traffic through the Doncaster town centre approach. Markets Car Park is the closest, a short walk from Copley Road.

Whether you are setting off from the Market Place and Priory Church side of town, the streets around Cowick Road, or the newer housing toward Pontefract Road, the route out of Snaith is broadly the same - onto the A614 or A645 and round through Rawcliffe before picking up the road into Doncaster. It is a genuine drive rather than a short hop, and most of our Snaith guests treat the evening as a proper night out rather than a quick weeknight dinner.

Public transport is honestly not a realistic option from Snaith to Doncaster - more on that below. For anyone making the trip, driving in is the only practical route, and the drive home in the evening is quieter still once the motorway traffic has thinned out.

• A relaxed dine-in setting, with booking recommended
• Bring your own bottle at no extra cost, no service charge added
• Cooked when you order, not before
• Curry pastes shipped in from Thailand, not a local stand-in
• A genuine drive from Snaith by car

Snaith is a small market town in the East Riding of Yorkshire, on the River Aire between Knottingley and Goole. Its Priory Church of St Laurence, a Grade I listed building with roots in the twelfth century as a Benedictine cell of Selby Abbey, is the dominant landmark on the Market Place and has anchored the town for close to a thousand years. Snaith was granted a royal market charter in 1223, and Thursday is still market day in the town today.

The honest thing worth knowing before you visit is that Snaith's own train station is one of the lightest served in the country - three trains a day, kept running mainly to avoid the paperwork of a formal closure, and none of them go to Doncaster directly. It is a genuinely curious piece of railway trivia for a town this size, but it also means driving is the only sensible way to reach us from Snaith.

The M62 passes within about a mile of the town to the south, though the nearest junctions are several miles off in either direction, so it is not a quick on-and-off. For a Snaith evening out, the drive to Doncaster is straightforward once you are on the right road out of town, even if it takes a little longer than the map distance suggests.

For collection orders, we send a secure card link by text so you can pay before setting off from Snaith - the food is boxed and ready when you arrive at 67 Copley Road.

We are open Monday and Wednesday through Saturday, twelve noon until nine in the evening, with the kitchen typically taking last orders around eight-forty. Tuesdays and Sundays we are closed. Friday and Saturday evenings fill up by midweek, so book a day or two ahead if either night matters to you, particularly given the length of the drive from Snaith. Midweek tables can usually be booked the same day.

Book a table online through our booking system, or phone 01302 210408 directly. The phone is the better route if you want to confirm spice levels or flag a dietary requirement before you set off, given how far you are travelling.

Parking is closest at Markets Car Park, a short walk from us. Frenchgate multi-storey is a popular alternative for visitors to the town centre, with Chappell Drive East Car Park a good backup on busier evenings. Street parking on the roads around Copley Road is free after 6pm once restrictions lift. Parking once and walking for the rest of the evening is the easiest approach for anyone driving in.
