“Born in the East, raised in the East End”
Rosa’s Thai was founded in 2008 by husband and wife entrepreneurs, Alex and Saiphin Moore. Rosa’s brand was born from co-founder Saiphin’s passion for authentic Thai food. Saiphin, who grew up in Khao Kho, northern Thailand, and Alex opened the first Rosa’s Thai Cafe in Spitalfields in 2008.
The company has won multiple awards, including the eating-out brand of the year award in 2017 at the national Eat Out Awards and was ranked as the third fastest growing company on MCA & AlixPartners’ 2018 UK eating and drinking out growth tracker.
