Best Thai Food in Springvale — 2026 Guide

Springvale has a thai food scene that punches well above what you’d expect. The suburb runs affordable, diverse, developing — and the food reflects it. We’ve eaten at every thai food spot in the area and these are the ones worth your time and money.

Expect to pay $18-32 per person for a proper sit-down meal. The cheaper end gets you wok-charred, the higher end gets you pad thai done properly.

Our Top Picks

1. The Green Larder — 16 Park Street

Hours: Tue-Sat 5:30pm-11pm Price: $19-29 per person

The Green Larder is the benchmark for thai food in Springvale. The green curry is what most people order, and for good reason — it’s consistently excellent. The larb is the other standout, done with genuine care rather than the paint-by-numbers approach you get at chain spots.

The room seats about 45 and fills on Friday and Saturday nights. Midweek you’ll walk straight in. The service is efficient without being rushed, and the owner is usually behind the bar.

Order this: The nam tok ($19) as a main, plus massaman to share. Insider tip: The specials board changes weekly and is usually better than the printed menu.

2. Mia Post — 106 High Road

Hours: Wed-Sun 5:30pm-10pm Price: $24-37 per person

This is the locals’ pick — less polished than The Green Larder but arguably more flavour per dollar. The kitchen runs tight with a small team, which means everything is made to order. The pad thai here has a depth that comes from doing the same dish three hundred times until it’s muscle memory.

The space is small — about 30 seats — and they don’t take bookings on weeknights, so arrive before 6:30pm or after 8pm to dodge the rush.

Best dish: The wok-charred ($24). Simple, executed perfectly. Pro tip: BYO wine on Tuesdays ($5 corkage).

3. Hugo Commons — 277 Church Street

Hours: Tue-Sat 5:30pm-10pm Price: $22-42 per person

Hugo Commons opened in late 2025 and has already built a following. The menu is short — eight dishes — which is usually a good sign. Everything on it is considered. The larb ($24) is the dish that gets photographed most, but the massaman ($25) is the one regulars order.

When to go: Sunday lunch is the sweet spot. Same food, half the crowd.

4. The Little House — 351 Park Street

Hours: Mon-Sat 5:30pm-10pm Price: $18-31 per person

The takeaway option on this list. The Little House doesn’t have table service — you order at the counter and either take it home or eat at the three outdoor tables. The quality-to-price ratio is the best in Springvale. The green curry ($18) is the standout.

5. Felix’s — 136 East Road

Hours: Wed-Sun 12pm-3pm + 5:30pm-11pm Price: $24-35 per person

A solid all-rounder. Not the cheapest, not the most experimental, but consistently good across the entire menu. The pad thai ($25) and the wok-charred ($25) are both worth ordering. The wine list is surprisingly thoughtful for a thai food place.
