Monday has arrived… and frankly, we think it deserves feeding. 😏🍛

Today’s Thai specials are here to make your Monday considerably more exciting:

🍛 Massaman curry with chicken – rich, creamy, comforting and basically a hug in a bowl.

🌱 Green curry with tofu – fragrant, creamy and packing enough flavour to wake you up better than your first coffee.

Come down, grab a table by the river, watch the world go by and let us do the cooking. 🌿⛴️

Because Mondays are rubbish… unless there’s Thai curry involved. 😉

See you at the Ferry! ❤️

The weather is still lovely today — no rain! So why not enjoy the café while it lasts? I know I would. ❤️

🍛 Today’s specials:
• Panang Curry with Chicken — GF
• Green Curry with Tofu — GF, DF, Vegan 🌱

Want to reserve your curry? DM us!

Come down, relax and enjoy a lovely cup of tea or coffee with your favourite slice of cake. ☕🍰

🌿 Kindly note:
If you can, please walk, cycle or bike to us. Let’s do our little bit to keep nature beautiful. 💚

We’d love to see you today! ✨

Well… September has rudely turned up. 🍂😬

Which means one thing… we’re slowly heading towards that awkward time of year when we have to admit that summer is nearly over and Thorpe Ferry Café will eventually have to pack away its flip-flops, put the kettle on standby and hibernate for a bit. 😂

We’ll be announcing our end-of-season closing date soon, so keep an eye on our socials. 👀

In the meantime, there’s absolutely no reason not to come down, sit by the river, drink far too much coffee, eat something delicious and pretend summer is still going.

And today’s Thai specials are doing a bloody good job of helping:

🍛 Massaman Curry with Chicken
🌶️ Green Curry with Chicken
🥥 Massaman Curry with Tofu

Plus all the usual coffee, cakes, treats and riverside loveliness. ☕️🍰🌿

So basically… September is your warning.

Come and see us before we disappear quicker than the last slice of cake on a Sunday. 😂❤️

See you by the river! ⛴️

BANK HOLIDAY MONDAY! 🎉

If you’ve woken up today with absolutely no idea what day it is… congratulations, you’re doing Bank Holiday Monday correctly. 😂

The kettle is on, the coffee is flowing and we’ve got some proper Thai comfort food coming out of the kitchen today 🇹🇭🌶️

🍛 Massaman Curry with Chicken
🍛 Penang Curry with Tofu

Perfect after a stroll, cycle or ferry adventure… or, let’s be honest, as an excellent excuse to leave the house when the sofa is dangerously comfortable. 😎

Come and grab a gorgeous coffee, something tasty from the café and finish off the long weekend properly.

And remember… walk down the lane if you can! 🚶‍♀️🚲 The ferry, the river and your lunch are all waiting. ❤️

Happy Bank Holiday Monday, everyone! 🍛☕️

30/08/2026

BANK HOLIDAY SUNDAY HAS ENTERED THE CHAT ☀️🍛🍻

And frankly, we think that’s an excellent excuse to abandon all your sensible plans and come and see us at Thorpe Ferry Café. 😂

Today’s Thai specials are bringing the good vibes:

🌶️ Green Chicken Curry
🥥 Panang Tofu
🐟 Tod Mun Pla Fish Cakes

Freshly cooked, properly Thai, and absolutely no judgement if you’re having curry for lunch and then telling everyone you “only had a light bite”. 👀

Come for the curry, stay for the gorgeous coffee, café treats, riverside views and maybe a cheeky drink or two. 🍹☕

And remember… it’s a bank holiday. Calories don’t count until Tuesday. That’s just science.

Bring the dogs, bring the family, bring your mates — and if you’re feeling energetic, walk or cycle down the lane and earn that curry! 🚶‍♀️🚲

See you by the river ❤️
