Our Giggling story

Husband and wife co-founders Pranee and Andy started Giggling Squid out of a determination to bring the buzz of Thai mealtimes to the UK – energetic, informal, adventurous and welcoming. It all started in a tiny Fisherman’s cottage (now our Brighton restaurant) where the first menu was dreamt up.

Giggling Cocktail Recipes

Nothing gets us Giggling like flavour, freshness, fire and fizz – not only in our Thai-licious dishes but also in our cocktails and mocktails. Taking full advantage of Thailand’s abundance of fresh, flavourful ingredients our master Squidologists spend their days dreaming up potent luscious libations and alcohol-free sensational sips to accompany your Giggling feasts.

Calories count, but do we need to count them?

From 6th April, you’ll see a change in our menus. Our chefs rose to the challenge, scrutinising every ingredient that goes into creating our full-flavoured dishes. We discovered that taste and eating-satisfaction does not automatically mean calorie-laden.
