Giggling Squid

About

Conveniently located in the centre of Royal Windsor, Giggling Squid serves innovative and tasty Thai food. Guests will be treated to a lunchtime Thai tapas menu and an extensive evening menu, both of which feature a varied selection of seafood, meat, curry, noodles and stir fry options. 

The renowned Giggling Squid Thai tapas lunch menu offers an array of small plates, including the signature Salt and pepper squid. There is also a range of tasting sets on offer with a selection of four carefully curated dish combinations. The extensive evening menu includes popular Giggling staples such as Duck spring roll and Lamb shank Massaman, alongside exciting showstoppers such as the Black pepper soft shell crab; Thai-style cod and Crying Beef (grilled sirloin marinated in Thai herbs and accompanied by a spice dipping sauce).

Families can also take advantage of the ‘Little Tapas for Little People’ menu. Designed to encourage children to be more adventurous with their food choices, the menu features smaller versions of popular dishes including Chicken satay and Pad Thai.

Designed by founder Pranee Laurillard, the beautiful three-tiered space combines hand-painted framed stencils with bold, floral wallpaper and panelling, which add a splash of defining colour. Stunning light fixtures, plush seating and soft leather banquettes create a stylish yet welcoming setting.

Owned by Thai-born Pranee Laurillard and her husband Andy, Giggling Squid – the nickname of one of their three children – was founded in the basement of a tiny fisherman’s cottage, now the Brighton restaurant, where dreams of replicating a taste of home became a reality. The couple opened their first site in Hove in 2009 and have gone on to establish a strong reputation for authentic Thai cooking with an emphasis on signature curries and coastal specialities.

'We’re delighted to call Windsor home, a town with such a rich history and beauty! We’re proud of our restaurant and we look forward to welcoming residents and visitors to enjoy a Giggling Squid experience’ Pranee Laurillard.
