This place is amazing! Fantastic food, service and location. I was pleasantly surprised how reasonable the pricing was for such a unique venue and for the quality of the food. Definitely going back soon!

A popular Thai restaurant with unique decorations at Carborro. There's a refurbished train coach compartment at one side of the restaurant. There's a good selection of Thai cuisine. Service is friendly and attentive. The Thai green curry and papaya salad are delicious. It can be quite crowded during dinner time. Dine in and also order online are available.

Cute vibey restaurant which recycles actual train cars and is right next to the railroad tracks ( our booth has a view of the tracks). We ordered Boat Noodles and the Thai Basil Stir fry, which were both delicious, Alcoholic drinks are also available, although we didn't try.

We got the cashew tofu (E7) and the boat soup. Both were really good. The service was quick. The server asked if we had any allergies, which was very nice to not have to say we had them first.

Just had my best Thai lunch experience ever, and definitely one of the best lunches I've had in the Triangle NC area. Highly-recommended if you enjoy spicy Thai curry. It was my 2nd time going to Thai Station but my first time during lunch hours. The place clearly looks like a "Station" as it used to be a train station back in the day. As soon as I entered, I was delighted to see the restaurant's main dining area with beautiful basket lights and lush plants by the ceiling, giving the ambiance an exotic and adventurous vibe. Pretty much as if a train just took us to Thailand. From this area, Thai Station splits into two "train" dining areas of equal size; I was taken to a table on the left side, and handed the restaurant's well-crafted menu with clear photos of various Thai dishes, appetizers, and desserts. And they have a great deal for their Lunch specials, which come with a complimentary item, which for this day, is a small salad with some kind of peanut ginger dressing. I ordered the Panang Curry Lunch special with beef (Medium-spiced) and a glass of iced Thai tea. You can choose other proteins like chicken or shrimp for your curry and the price differences are not much. The complimentary salad and the Thai tea were served fast by the gentle server named Tanat C. The salad tasted fresh and the peanut ginger dressing is so good at just the right amount as an appetizer. It also came with Shrimp chips on a tiny metal basket, and the crispiness of it goes well with the salad. The Thai tea is served in a tall, slender glass, just the fine amount. It tasted delicious, creamy and sweet - a great balance of refreshing Thai tea, condensed milk, and ice. It took about 8 minutes for the Panang Curry to reach my table, so it was quite fast. There are 3 levels of spiciness you can get, and I chose the middle Medium one. First of all, the presentation of this red curry lunch is just appetizing: the curry is served in a cup with just the right amount for an affordable price (around 11.50) and beside it is a fine amount of Jasmine white rice. The sauce of the curry was spiced perfectly, just how I want 3eit. I could taste the rich coconut milk and the authentic Panang flavor. There were red, green, and yellow bell peppers and peas with a good amount of beef. Whether you taste the curry sauce by itself or put it over the rice, the whole meal with the lime leaf on the side is just satisfyingly delicious. The server Tanat C. was a gentleman, refilled my water when I needed it, and I saw him serving the other customers professionally. The two female customers beside me also enjoyed the curry they ordered. I went here with my girl for dinner before, and we tried the Masaman (yellow) curry. It was also authentic and delicious. Both dinner and lunch experiences were good, but I think I enjoyed the lunch one a bit more perhaps because their specials are such a great deal. We also tried the chicken stays skewers, and they're not a bad appetizer, which comes with 4 pieces for 8. As I devoured the remaining curry sauce, I could hear there's an actual train moving outside the window! I thought trains stopped going here in downtown Carrboro, but that added to the wonderful lunch experience inside, living up to its "Thai Station" name. They have other Thai dishes I haven't tried like their soups, stir-fried noodles, friend rice, House's Specials, and mostly-ice cream desserts, but the Thai curry is always a must-order for me. Thai Station's authentic Thai flavors, astonishing ambiance, affordable yet satisfying lunch specials and friendly customer service make this restaurant one of the best reasons to visit downtown Carrboro.

This place is awesome! I can’t believe my partner and I have never tried it despite living in the area for a long time. The atmosphere/interior is the most unique I’ve seen in NC. The food is also great at a reasonable price especially for lunch! Servers were incredibly nice and attentive. The restaurant is also near a lot of other cool things to do when you’re done eating. We are definitely coming back soon

Lovely atmosphere. Super nice waitor. Just not impressed by food. But i think i will go again. Love the atmosphere.

What a unique venue and authentic delicious Thai cuisine! The dish presentations are beautiful and the service is friendly and prompt.
