A Northern Quarter favourite: MyThai

If you’re in the Northern Quarter and after something quick, comforting and full of flavour, MyThai is one of those places that always delivers. Tucked away on Tib Street, it’s a proper local favourite, the kind of place people recommend without hesitation.

The whole vibe is casual and no-fuss. You order at the counter, grab a seat, and before long your food arrives, hot, fresh and packed with flavour. It’s not about the setting here, it’s all about the food, and that’s exactly why it works so well.

The menu is full of classic Thai dishes, from pad thai to stir fries and curries, but one dish that really stands out is the Thai green curry. It’s rich, fragrant and full of depth, with just the right balance of creaminess and spice. It’s the kind of dish that feels comforting but still has that fresh, vibrant flavour Thai food is known for.

And if you’re visiting on a warmer day (or as we head into summer), pairing your food with a cold bottle of Chang just makes sense. It’s crisp, refreshing and the perfect match for the heat and spice of the curry, simple, but exactly what you want.

Portions are generous, prices are really reasonable, and the whole experience is quick and easy, which makes it ideal whether you’re grabbing food before drinks, stopping off mid-shopping trip, or just want something reliable without overthinking it.

Overall, MyThai is one of those go-to spots. No frills, no pretence, just great Thai food, bold flavours and a relaxed atmosphere right in the heart of Manchester. If you’re in the Northern Quarter and not sure where to eat, this is always a safe bet.
