Golden Pearl

Awesome little place, pop up tables, very, very tasty food. Extremely reasonable prices, friendly staff, great drinks and has a little asian supermarket attached. Many of the local Asian community also eat here as well as the students so you know it is good.
Food is better tasting than Wagamama's and better priced. Fairly traditional noodle bowls and similar plus sides on offer.

Open Mon-Sat 9am - 7pm, Sun 10am - 6pm

Happy hour is 2pm - 4pm Monday to Thursday during this time you get a free non-alcoholic drink with your food.

Lovely fresh made food, lovely staff.
We will return very soon

The best tasting Chinese food around! Friendly service !

We sometimes call in for fantastic authentic Thai food. The Tom Yum soup was delicious and great value
Ignore the basic surroundings just try the food 👍👍😋

I had lunch there today with my best friend.. only £10 for dim sum, chicken satay, beef dumplings and coke. It was amazing! The lady at the till even gave me some of the satay sauce to take home when i said how delicious it was. Im massively impressed and will be eating here again frequently!

We were having a really busy stressful day when we came across the Golden Pearl, so we were feeling a bit grumpy and hungry when they put these tiny portions in front of we were less than impressed. That change fast, we both ordered then Thai green curry (the chef's special) , we'd barely sat down when she brought it to us. Let me tell you it was the best curry we'd every had and boy was it filling we were both stuffed Mam had a jasmine tea and I had a pineapple juice and it came to only £9! brilliant service fantastic food at a fantastically cheap price, would recommend to anyone. And a quick note our portion was the smaller of two sizes.

Love this place so much that we make it a weekly treat. Food is fresh, fast and delicious. Inexpensive and good sized portions. Handy little Asian grocer too with lots of dried and frozen goods plus a selection of Thai vegetables and fresh pickles.

How wonderful to have an authentic Thai restaurant and supermarket in the centre of Durham.

The food is tasty and reasonably priced. You can also buy Thai curry paste, coconut milk and Kaffir lime leaves and make delicious authentic Thai curries at home.

There's one lady there in particular who speaks excellent English and is very helpful if you have any questions about the food/produce.

The staff are extremely friendly and approachable. They're super helpful and patient as well. The shop is very spacious and sells a good variety of products. Their takeaway food is also amazing!

Have been here many times, always for the shop. There's a good selection of groceries, with fresh foods, canned and dry food, and also frozen food. The people who work in the store are always very kind and helpful, it's very nice atmosphere.

Delicious food, good portion sizes and friendly staff but can be a bit expensive.

We visit this little gem once a week and it never disappoints. However, todays Tom yum soup was absolutely exceptional, so delicious. Highly recommended you give it a go.

Excellent oriental supermarket, staff are nice and the selection on offer is great. I have not tried it yet but there is also a cafe/restaurant and they serve fresh orange juice and bubble tea.

Excellent shop. The staff have always been so friendly and polite at each visit.

Really tasty noodles and the taro milk shake was scrummy! This place is not expensive, the service is efficient and they have plenty of menu items (although I always order a clear wheat noodle soup with pork).

Great supermarket, I visit at least once a month to stock up. Staff are fantastic, couldn’t be more helpful.
I enjoy my trips and always come out with new things to try

Perfect place.. the food is absolutely delicious, then buy our bits from the shop and the staff are friendly and helpful

I love their food and everyone is well behaved.

Lovely shop, good range of products, reasonable prices. Friendly and helpful staff. Parking nearby is sometimes difficult.

Loved the Tom yam soup - super inexpensive as well, and the shop had a good selection of stuff to buy whilst you wait!
