Good Thai takeaway. The dimsums are good too :) the queue moves pretty fast. They usually have a selection of six curries with a choice of rice and noodles.

Papaya is the perfect place to get extremely cheap Thai take away food for lunch. The food is tasty and relatively fresh even though it is put under heaters on display all day. I would highly recommend the green or red curry, they are just spicy enough. Obviously the meat is not of the best quality but for 4.20 per dish including rice I wouldn't expect any better. 

I wouldn't recommend dining in because the interior is not very appealing, but rather to take it away and eat it at work or university. I come here quite a lot if I want a warm tasty meal for lunch and am sick of sandwiches. The portions are very generous and could even be for two people.

I love this restaurant as they serve excellent food at a swift service. The sushi is among the best I have ever had. The prices a little steep but worth it. The ambiance is also nice and calm and favorable. The sushi platter is reasonable and delicious. It gets really crowded too.

I have been to this place quite a few times and love the Thai food that is offered here. The food is of pretty good quality, especially the sushi which is quite delicious. These people offer good value food and thus, the food is available at quite reasonable prices. This place is quite small and thus can become packed very easily. This one is a good option for takeaway or a quick meal.

After I had been to a couple of amazing restaurants in this city, this place happened to me and I am totally swooned by this place. Amazing service. The staff members possess a very pleasing personality and are super friendly. The pricing is very much affordable and reasonable. The portions served are more than sufficient and I assure you that you would Walk out satisfied and content. Recommended.

This new joint nearby has just nailed it! They have everything so perfectly done and the prices that are being offered are simply unbelievable. From absolutely heavenly Thai food to the friendly servers who take personal care of you to the enormous helping of the meal everything is unbelievingly perfect. These people surely need to take classes for the restaurants around to teach them how to get it right! I am visiting this place very soon to try some Sushi.

The price is very reasonable and the portion size pretty good too.The taste of the sushi i ordered was pretty delicious too.
I recommend trying the Thai green chicken for sure.A great takeaway place.

If you happen to be a person who is fond of non vegetarian dishes then this place is surely going to be of your interest. Having a wide variety of non veggie food and a very limited variety of vegetarian dishes this place has a limited crowd. The staff is fine, the ambiance is good, the crowd is mixed and the food is great. Check it out. Cheers.

I was not out to visit this place and had stumbled upon it by mistake. But i was pretty happy with my discovery none the less. The place seems quite popular with a huge waiting line outside the place.I decided to join in and figure out the hype.
I was very happy with the food and the portion size was more than substantial! The taste was simply delicious.I think the place has great value for money and recommend trying hot meal box!

I have been a regular at this place for sometime and love it completely. The food is absolutely delicious but a little less spicy for my taste. I love the beef curry here, though. The service is pretty efficient. The staff is quite warm, attentive and friendly. I would suggest to reserve a table in advance before visiting this place as it becomes packed very easily.

I have been to this place quite a couple of times and I have fallen in love with Massaman and Cashew chicken. I loved the preparation, seasoning and garnishing. The food they serve is very authentic taste wise and very fresh. The staff is very welcoming and pleasing and their service is equally efficient. I thoroughly recommend this place. Also, I am surely going to visit them very soon.

Its cheap food and its not that bad. You get what you pay for. My colleagues and I go here quite often however their Pad Thai is not that good. Its not spicy and don't like the thick flat noodles they use.  We tend to get the Red or Green curry with rice and sushi as a meal deal.

Papaya is a small Thai cafe serving mainly takeaway lunch boxes of a selection of Popular Thai Dishes. There are spaces at the back for around 8x2 people and a few seats at the front.

The portion sizes are very generous and you get a lot of Beef or Chicken in the box. Its great value at £4.20 for a curry with noodles. I have had most of the curries there, I would say all are rather mild and simple, there isn't a strong sense of flavour in most of the meals, i feel they could do with a injection of some key thai ingredients like lemongrass to give it that authentic taste.

Great portions, really cheap prices, lovely staff and rich tasting food! Papaya has quickly become my go-to place to grab lunch. The tofu red curry is my personal favourite, although I had the soup once as well which also tasted pretty good. However they do tend to run out of stuff later in the day, so you should make sure you don't leave it too late in the day to visit.

Great value and high quality curry/Thai/noodles in central London. It's geared to the office lunch takeaway crowd, but there are a few tables if you want to sit down. It's fairly veggie friendly too, with at least one tofu-based dish.

Good food, good size portions, reasonably priced. No alcohol, only soft drinks. I had 2 x spring rolls (they were quite big in size & very tasty) and tom yum noodle soup with tofu, which was delicious and a perfect dish on a cold day in London. They have a few tables at the back. Basic décor. Not much of an atmosphere… probably best to take away instead of eating in. Also, their takeaway containers are 100% compostable and biodegradable, which is brilliant!

Just had my first Papaya (Beef in Oyster sauce + a slice of sesame toast) under high recommendation from a friend. Really tasty, massive portion with a (all important) great/generous ratio of meat to noodles for a very good price. 100% will be back soon and will try what I was actually recommended to get which was the Massaman curry(!)

The best take away place in Fitzrovia! Amazing food, friendly service, generous portions. I always recommend this place to everyone. I hope Papaya will stay on Goodge Street for a very long time! Thank you!

This place is delicious, however I've recently gone vegan and so got one of my people to phone Papaya to check whether their tofu options are fully vegan, however no-one answered the phone. I had my Man ring them four times but no answer. This is a shame as I do not feel comfortable asking if things are vegan in person, so will have to eat elsewhere until I can find out for sure. I will have my Man ring again tomorrow and hopefully they will answer then.

Incredibly generous portions of excellent food in a cute little shop with friendly people! My daily go-to lunch place when I eat out and the go-to for many others - for good reason!

Great portions, service and the food always tastes the same. Would like to see a little more variety at times but can't question the value for money.
