About Jumbo Thai

Tucked behind Coles in Pyrmont, Jumbo Thai delivers lightning-fast, oversized wok plates and rich noodle soups at easy-going prices. Office workers and Lyric Theatre ticket-holders rely on the kitchen for dishes like chicken pad thai, pork belly tom yum, and steaming bowls of laksa—often hitting tables within five minutes. Staff actively ask for spice preferences from mild to very hot before the woks flare. Dinner can be eaten right inside the shop or taken out to the breezy centre food court alongside a sweet iced Thai milk tea.

  • Five-Minute Turnaround: Fresh stir-fries and noodle soups regularly land on the table within five minutes of ordering.
  • Custom Heat Levels: Servers proactively check spice tolerances—from mild to fiery heat—before dishes hit the pan.
  • Pre-Theatre & Early Dining: Open on Sundays and before 5pm, making it a reliable pre-show or off-hours meal stop.

  • Personalized Spice Consultations

    Staff take the time to proactively consult guests on their desired heat levels and cooking preferences.

    They even took the time to ask about our spice preference, whether we wanted the food mild or very hot, which showed their care for customers’ tastes.

  • Pre-Theatre Pyrmont Location

    Conveniently situated opposite The Star and Lyric Theatre, offering an efficient sit-down bite before showtime.

    Dropped by before seeing a show in the Lyric Theatre for a quick bite and was pleased with the service, quality of food and efficiency.

  • Thai Milk Tea

    Thai milk tea is a nice addition to any meal, this is my favourite drink. It is a sweeter drink, so great for anyone who has a sweet tooth.
