    I was recommended here by a work colleague and decided to take my fiancé for his birthday as we love Thai cuisine. We were both enchanted by the setting and the food was the best Thai cuisine we had ever had, presentation and combination of flavours was amazing. The staff were friendly and helpful without it feeling like they were hovering or imposing on our time together. I highly recommend The Wee Choo Choo to anyone and we will definitely be back.

    The Wee Choo Choo is a fantastic dining experience. Wonderful Thai food which is second to none. Mia and her staff always on hand to explain dishes and drinks to you. Great choice on the menu but not too many choices that makes your head spin. This was our second visit and like last time we will be back again. All i can say is please try especially if you have never had Thai before. You will not be disappointed.

    The food was fantastic. Speaking to one of the owners, they put a significant amount of time in sourcing the ingredients from Thailand to get the most authentic flavour possible. The service was outstanding, I can’t fault it in any way. My partner and I hadn’t tried Thai food before so the servers took time to explain each dish and the spice levels to guide our choice. This is a brilliant wee place that is a must try in Pitlochry. The novelty of dining in an old train carriage is just a cherry on top of a fantastic meal.

    Nice place, train idea amazing, shame that on such a hot day aircon was not on, food ok but not the greatest Thai we had, menu really limited , starters really nice main course was good but not the best we had, overall really overpriced we do have Thai a lot and we do know portions are small but this was not only small but not really full of flavours not what we normally use to in our local Thai in a Edinburgh, we visit a lot but we will not dine there again what is unfortunate but unfortunately not for us.
