Bai Cha

Okay, I went back. It’s been months and I love their soup. We ordered a ton of food. Guess what they left out? My soup. Every time we order take out they mess it up. Really?

The apps were good. But the beef salad had so much spice in it that it was not edible. I feel sick!

Service took forever (like 45 mins for noodles) and we were the only people in here but food was really good. I’d like to try it again soon

Very well decorated and presented interior with plenty of tables. We came for lunch around noon on a Saturday expecting it to be busy but we were the only ones there for the entire meal. Pleasant staff and prompt service greeted us right away and seated us by the window.
The Thai iced tea was very good, too much ice though. Crab Rangoon was some of the best I’ve had. The drunken noodle needed a little more heat but the large portion made up for the lack of kick. My girlfriend had the sweet and sour lunch special and enjoyed it thoroughly. The price was real reasonable at sub $ 10 for an entrée.
If I was in the mood for Thai and didn’t want to leave town I would come back and try some of their other dishes.

I’ve come here a couple times already. I feel like this is the only Thai place around Hampton. I am Thai myself and the food could have been better. The food was bland and the service was okay. The prices are higher than the normal Thai restaurants… This place is just okay. I’ve experienced better.

Overall, not a bad option, given the lean competition in downtown Hampton. We ordered the appetizer sampler, which included two each of five different items, a yellow curry chicken dish, and a green bean dish with shrimp. Add two sides of white rice and one drink each and it was a $ 70 night out.
The food was tasty, and the service was decent. Cocktails were affordably priced at $ 7, as was a glass of Seaglass pinot noir. We were one of two tables on a Saturday night, and a third table was seated as we were awaiting our check, but it was exactly hopping.
To be honest, you would do a lot better to head to Exeter to Pine Garden. The food is better, the portions larger, and a similar meal would only set you back about $ 45. Granted, it’s Chinese and not Thai, but Bai Cha wasn’t authentic enough to make that much of a difference.

Bai Cha, nestled in Hampton’s business district serves typical Thai dishes: curries, pad thai, throwing in other Asian dishes here and there. Tom Yum, or, chicken soup with coconut, is one of my favorites and I ordered it here. The soup had lots of flavor and was piping hot, mysteriously piping hot so I believe a microwave was involved somewhere. Although, I’d rather have my soup piping hot from a microwave than lukewarm. I also ordered an appetizer platter which included chicken satay, fried shrimp, dumplings, spring rolls, and an assortment of sauces. All were good. For an entrée I had the chicken with pineapple and ginger which was delicious. The food was generally good. The only critique I’d offer is the presentation. The entrée’s had some lovely wilted pieces of ice berg lettuce strewn about on my plate. NO. Save the wilted lettuce for the compost bin, please.
The service was fine if not terribly fast. All in all, it’s a nice place to have some thai food and off of the 101 there’s really nothing aside from Pad Thai which has 3.5 rated Unilocal stars, yet I’ve never noticed more than two cars in their parking lot.

We are so fortunate to have Bai Cha in Hampton, NH! Great food — always so fresh and flavorful. Love the combo luncheon specials. The service is friendly and accommodating. The prices are reasonable for the portion size and quality of the food. Check Bai Cha out — you won’t be disappointed!

Still waiting to pay for fair tasting food.
Service slow food bland. Beef basil lacked basil.

Very tasty Thai food right in Hampton Falls. Food tastes fresh and the spice level was good. Servers are friendly and earnest, if not the most organized. We had no errors with our order, so can’t complain. Prices are fair for portion size and taste, and the menu is big with a lot of variety! Be aware the lemonade is pink and very sweet!

I love Thai food… At this particular location, I felt like it lacked. But then again, I’m not a local. I stopped by to show my parents how good Thai food is. Boy, it’s really different than the Thai food served in DC/​VA area where I’m from.
I asked for «extra spicy» because I had a gut feeling that people may not eat Asian food or spicy stuff too much up there… It ended up bring really bland unfortunately. The waiter was SO nice and gentle though, we couldn’t break his heart and tell him that the «extra spicy» was «bland» /​/​also to note, the portion sizes were «ok» — meaning, we didn’t have anything left to take home… I’m also Asian so I eat a lot of rice. The rice portion was tiny compared to other Thai restaurants…
The service was GREAT though and it was in a little quaint town. Good to stop by at least and see how it is. Sorry, I think I’m spoiled by a lot of good Thai and ethnic food where I live :) I was on vacation and will never go there again unless in the area, but I’m sure your experience can be better than mine!

Stopped in today needing something got and spicy. My first stop so I didn’t want to go too crazy… although a few fire fighters had decided to stop and eat here as well (always a good sign). I ordered the chicken mango curry (medium) and Thai Ice tea. Superb!

After reading the reviews, my wife and I ventured down. We were seated quickly and found the surroundings clean and pleasant. We ordered apps (dumplings for her, shrimp for me) which were very good. Her’s had the better flavor, but both were nice. I ordered the Thai beer options, which tasted like Budweiser, but you need to know these things.
She ordered a chicken-​based dish, I ordered a dish with shrimp, chicken and pork. Both were excellent. Mine was labeled as spicy, but really wasn’t. Service was excellent and prompt. Overall a good experience and we will return.

Absolutely a hidden gem. We are ordered a tasty assortment of curry dishes. I ordered the Green Curry Beef. It was wonderful. Service was very good. Unfortunately we were some of the only ones who were there. Hopefully more people will be willing to try it! Portion sizes are excellent.

We stopped in for lunch on Thursday. It was mostly empty so we were greeted immediately and told to choose any table. After my last experience with east coast pad thai I decided to get the drunken noodles which were delicious! The fiancé ordered green curry with chicken which was similarly tasty but very spicy (as described by him — I am a known spice wimp).
Portions are individual, definitely not for sharing, and a little small in my opinion — but everything was very reasonably priced.
Service was good and we were able to get back on the road quickly.
I wish this place was in Texas so I could eat here again and try some other things on the menu!

Super big fan of this place and will drive here just for the food. Great prices and fresh ingredients those two things make this place a worthy place to visit alone. We always like to get an appetizer of the chicken satay and papaya salad. Two bowls of tom yum soup which is yum tum! heh ^~^ Pineapple fried rice is my mother-in-law’s favorite all time dish. My husband is addicted to their Chicken and Peanut sauce, which he calls Peanutty Chicken… ha yea. I’m more than full with their tom yum soup, papaya salad and grilled salmon! This is the ONLY place i over order so that I can have leftovers.
It’s a quite large dining area but they are divided into two rooms so it seems a little more cozy. They’re large windows in front that make the place a nice, cheery and bright restaurant to eat at. Clean utensils and immaculate restroom. White table cloth kind of deal but not stuffy by any means.
i love their servers! All of them are so nice and welcoming. They never mess up and are always very good about clarifying any menu substitutions so, if you’ve got a picky eater in the family this is a good place to go to.
The food is comparable to what I’m used to getting when I lived in San Francisco so, quality wise it’s better and healthier than what I’ve tried at other places in Nashua.
Prices are great too! I was delighted to see that they had more traditional seafood dishes like steamed fish in leaves because it seems like most Americanized Asian Restaurants have all gone fried –_​_​_​_​-​. But not this place you’ll find plenty of fresh colorful dishes!

Excellent.
Love the menu — have now started to order take-​out weekly it’s so good.
Our family loves this place and we wish them continued success.
If you have never tried Thai food this should be your first stop.
Great food, fresh and spiced just right.

Good Thai fare in a typical strip mall setting. Thai rolls are super crispy and tasty without a hint of grease. Duck breast was cooked perfectly and served with a delicious sauce. Service was slow at first but they quickly got it together. Will go back.

A hidden gem.
Stopped in for a late lunch on the way back to Boston.
We were the only patrons there. So nice and quiet.
We ordered wine with our meal.
The Boat tip noodle soup was very good although it was very much like phở (which is offered on their menu) but none the less, it was delicious and very flavorful.
The curry dishes were also good packed with lots of veggies.
service was great. she left us alone for the most part which was nice. I hate when they come over to you like 10 times asking if everything is ok especially when we don’t need refills.
A really nice place with a full bar.

I have been to Bai Cha about 25 times since they’ve opened. I am updating my 4 star review to 5 stars because they have gone above and beyond to respond to the feedback from their customers (including me). I initially complained about portion size and they really took that to heart. I typically order the Pad Thai, Beef Lemongrass, Pad Paradise, or Indonesian Rice. The quantity and quality of food served is enough to leave me completely satisfied. I have peeked into the kitchen and it looks very clean. They are efficient and friendly even though there are a few waitresses there that don’t really have a sufficient command over basic «waitress English». I have had to point and pray a few times when ordering.
I really like the roominess of the restaurant. It’s rarely full and it’s a nice place to have a social meeting where you linger a bit. I haven’t been kicked out yet.
This is a 5 star establishment in its category (basic Thai).
