Bangkok-Inspired

Thai Cuisine

Dedicated to serving authentic, thoughtfully crafted dishes in a relaxed and welcoming setting.

Our Restaurant

With its warm jewelled coloured interiors, our space is a casual yet sophisticated spot in central Godalming. The restaurant has two areas, a more hushed setting looking out on to the high-street which leads in to our light-filled conservatory with an added garden terrace for those warmer days.

The Greedy Elephant

We are a family-run Thai restaurant located in the beautiful and bustling Surrey town of Godalming. We are proudly independent and equally as passionate about sharing the dishes from our culture.

We marry creativity with traditional foundations to produce beautiful dishes with uncompromising flavours transporting you from Godalming to Bangkok's late night canteens with a quicker journey home..

We would love to welcome you to our restaurant.

My favourite thai restaurant! The food is so delicious, I don’t live locally anymore so anytime I’m anywhere near I have to go here for a meal. Last time I went I had the sweetcorn fritters, tofu red curry and shared a pad thai, it was really great.

Food was delicious, well-flavored, and cooked perfectly. The service was genuinely caring, customers were respectful and enjoying themselves. The atmosphere had charming decor, great vibes, and the restaurant was clean. A big thank you to the team. Don't forget to try the Tom Yum cocktails and lychee sorbet – they're quite special.

Visited here for dinner and had really good time. Good array of options on the menu and the food we had was very tasty. Their mocktails are also very good. Staff were friendly and attentive, regularly coming to the table to see if we wanted our water topped up or if we needed anything else

Last night’s one of the most delicious meals I’ve ever eaten. The flavours were intoxicating! Highly recommend the seafood sizzling platter, mixed vegetables in oyster sauce and the beef and cashew
nuts. The service was also impeccable, the staff a delight, knowledgeable and very very professional.
