Exploring the Street Food of Sukhumvit

Bangkok's Most Delicious Local Hotspots

Embarking on a culinary journey through the bustling streets of Sukhumvit unveils a sensory tapestry rich in flavours, aromas, and traditions. Nestled within the vibrant heart of Bangkok, Sukhumvit’s labyrinthine alleys and bustling thoroughfares offer a tantalizing array of street food delights that beckon to both locals and travellers alike. From savoury skewers sizzling on open grills to fragrant bowls of noodles steaming in the evening air, each corner reveals a new gastronomic adventure waiting to be savoured.

Soi Cowboy
Soi Cowboy, one of Bangkok’s renowned red-light districts, is typically associated with vibrant nightlife rather than culinary adventures. However, if you’re willing to delay gratification until nighttime, venture down Soi Cowboy as the bars close. Here, several street vendors swiftly erect their stalls and ignite the oil, primarily catering to the bar girls concluding their shifts. The meals served are authentically Thai, untouched by adjustments for foreign palates—be sure to specify your spice preference, requesting minimal or no chili if desired.

Terminal 21 Food Court
The expansive food court within Terminal 21 mall presents an enticing array of Thai street food delights, minus the actual street ambience! Instead, visitors can immerse themselves in an airport-themed shopping centre while navigating towards the diverse food stands. Ample seating options await patrons, ensuring a comfortable dining experience. With heightened standards of cleanliness and sanitation surpassing many roadside vendors, this venue offers an ideal setting to savour reasonably priced dishes that are synonymous with street food culture. Although a fair distance from your hotel in Sukhumvit Bangkok – like the lovely Gardina Asoke – it’s worth the effort.

Sukhumvit Soi 3/1
Often known as Soi Arab, Sukhumvit Soi 3/1 serves as the focal point of Bangkok’s Arab enclave. Amidst the bustling streets, alongside the typical Thai street food stalls, awaits a treasure trove of Arabian culinary delights such as falafel, kebabs, and shawarma. Open-fronted eateries with kitchens conveniently positioned near the sidewalks facilitate easy browsing and takeaway orders, despite their deviation from the traditional food cart setup.

Ekkamai Bus Station
Located at Ekkamai, the Eastern Bus Station boasts a simple food court offering an array of dishes to appease hungry travelers. Here, you’ll find an abundance of meat, seafood, and fish ball skewers, alongside rice dishes and noodle soups. While it may not warrant a special trip, it stands as yet another spot where vendors serve up authentic street eats. And if you happen to be catching a bus from here, why not indulge?
