Restaurant
Coffee Old City is conveniently located near a large park and the Ayutthaya Historical Park, making it an ideal spot to fuel up before embarking on your adventures or to recharge while discussing your city exploration. The cozy and unpretentious atmosphere offers a comfortable setting to enjoy traditional Thai favorites like pad Thai, along with some Western comforts. The friendly waitstaff pays attention to detail, evident in the presentation of dishes with small touches like flower garnishes.
Located opposite Wat Mahathat. Tried their pad thai and Spaghetti Fried Chilli. Food and coffee are delicious but the waiting time is quite long (about 40 minutes) and it worth the wait. Chill Atmosphere.

We randomly went in here as we felt tired after walking around in Ayuththaya. The food and drinks were awesome. In addition they were prepared artfully in a unique way. The prices are very reasonable but the food portion size is really small. But then again this seems to be the standard portion size in Thailand. The food did taste good and fresh. The service was excellent and the staff was extremely helpful with ordering. The atmosphere is very unique and welcoming. There weren't many guests when we went in but there were a few tourists just like us. I would definitely recommend stopping by here if you are in Ayuththaya.

Thai restaurant
Sukunya Somtum is a popular local restaurant located near the iconic Wat Mahathat in Ayutthaya. It's an ideal spot for a meal before or after exploring the historical park. The menu features delicious and affordable Thai dishes, with the spicy somtam salad being a standout. The restaurant offers a genuine Thai dining experience with its traditional decor and proximity to stunning temples.
Accidentally found this place while wandering aimlessly in the neighborhood. Glad we found it coz it served such delicious grilled squid and a big ruby fish crisply fried. Price was a bit more than our usual budget but so worth it. We were worried that the grilled squid would take time but it was served within 10 minutes or less. They offer both indoor seating with aircon or outdoor alfresco seating. This is another eatery that offers a wide variety of choices though several are deep fried options.

Cafe
Baan Kao Nhom is a stylish cafe located in the ancient city of Ayutthaya, offering a wide variety of traditional Thai desserts. The cafe's vibrant green exterior with European-style design makes it stand out among other shops. It is popular among both locals and tourists, evident from the continuous flow of visitors. This hidden gem not only serves authentic Thai candy and desserts but also offers fusion desserts for those looking for a more westernized treat.
This is a cute cafe with many choices of drinks and Thai desserts. I ordered Thai Tea with no sugar, it was pretty good, not the best in Thailand but I would order again if I visit Ayutthaya in the future. My friends got Butterfly Pea w/t Milk which was quite sweet, and Butterfly Pea Lemon which was like lime juice. You can ask the staff to make the drinks without sugar and give you sugar syrup in a separate container so you can adjust the sweetness to your liking. What impressed me was the clean shop and very clean washroom compared to some tourism places in Ayutthaya. The cool store gave me a nice break from the heat outside. I didn’t try the desserts because I heard they were a bit too sweet, but they do have a big selection.

Baan Kao Nhom is a delightful fusion of traditional Thai desserts and modern cafe culture, making it a standout in Ayutthaya’s food scene. The vibrant atmosphere, diverse dessert selection, and refreshing drinks make it a perfect pitstop for recharging after exploring the city’s historic sites. While the weekend crowds and limited parking can be drawbacks, the authentic flavors, fair prices, and charming setup make it a must-visit for anyone craving a sweet escape. I’d recommend arriving early to snag the best desserts and enjoy the cozy vibe before the rush. Baan Kao Nhom is a true gem for dessert lovers and a highlight of any Ayutthaya trip—I’ll definitely return

Baan Kao Nom is a must-visit every time I’m in Ayutthaya. This charming spot offers a wonderful selection of traditional Thai desserts — all beautifully presented and full of authentic flavor. The prices are very reasonable, and the cozy, relaxed atmosphere makes it a nice place to sit and enjoy a sweet break. That said, the place can get quite busy at times, especially on weekends. If you’re a fan of Thai sweets or looking to try something local, this place is definitely worth checking out!

Baan Kao Nhom (บ้านข้าวหนม) in Ayutthaya is a delightful café that masterfully combines traditional Thai desserts with a contemporary coffee culture. Nestled in the historic city of Ayutthaya, this café offers a perfect retreat for those looking to indulge in authentic Thai flavors while enjoying a modern, cozy atmosphere. The Thai coconut ice cream at Baan Kao Nhom is a standout. Creamy and refreshing, it encapsulates the essence of authentic Thai flavors and provides a perfect escape from the tropical heat of Ayutthaya. Another highlight is the Thong Yip, a traditional Thai dessert that is not only visually stunning but also bursts with delicate sweetness. Each piece reflects the intricate craftsmanship that goes into Thai dessert making, offering a true taste of the country's rich culinary heritage. In addition to their superb desserts, Baan Kao Nhom serves a robust and aromatic espresso. The rich, well-balanced coffee is a testament to the café's dedication to quality, making it an excellent complement to their sweet offerings. Whether you're a coffee enthusiast or simply in need of a caffeine fix, their espresso will not disappoint.

One of the best crispy pork ever. The crunchiness of the head bits with the good proportion of the meat bits, together, are perfect. Pork knuckle is also cooked to the perfection. It’s tenderness with savory taste make you crave for steamed rice. Seafood also well prepared and cooked.

Sensational restaurant selling Thai Chinese style food. Open kitchen and a very talented and renowned chef who i suspect may be the owner . Generous potions so you can share. Prices are reasonable given the quality. Snapper Penang curry was amazing as was crispy por kaprow I have eaten all over Thailand and this is one of the best places i have eaten. The multiple Michelin awards from 2022 to 2025 are testament to that. A must visit in the ancient city of Ayutthaya

It’s very tourist-friendly, allowing customizable spice levels and special requests.

My husband and I loved the food here! We went for dinner and it was the best portions for the price and it was all delicious! Some of the best food we have had in Thailand with a great atmosphere. We went in the evening for dinner so not having AC wasn’t a big deal. I got the eggplant pork with sweet basil dish and my husband had the pineapple fried rice. Mine was more flavorful than his so if you love eggplant I would highly recommend it.

Good taste, fresh ingredients, authentic thai taste. Nice river view. Not crowded. Ordered 5 prawns 1,500 thb, very fresh and tender, prawn price is less than other popular restaurants. Restaurant atmosphere might look old and hard to find parking but I recommend for foods.

Don't waste your money here.... We attended as a group of 13 of which 11 are Thai. The majority vote was that the food was not authentic in any way. Tom yum soup was pretty much water with a squeeze of lemon. Fish cakes were rubbery in taste Prawn cakes lacked any sort of flavour or seasoning Egg fried rice was over seasoned and salty The green curry was awful - can't even give a break down as to why it was bad. Prawn vermicelli noodles were basic, lacked flavour. Stir fried vegetables - under cooked. Vegetables were still raw. Steamed rice, which you can't get wrong, was slightly soggy. We had more ordered but cancelled the rest as just didn't want to go through the trauma of tasting bad food. During the whole time, not once did the staff come over and asked if they're able to resolve the issue even after we voiced our concerns, they just backed away. What they did get right was the Chang beer, that tasted the same as everywhere else 🤣

I have never been disappointed in thai food. But this place made us cancel the rest of our order and leave. Everything was just bland, no flavour. I've never done anything like leaving a restaurant half way through, but this place will leave you wondering if they plucked a chef who has no taste buds from rural England to cook Thai food. Avoid at all cost

Food was ok, shrimp is great. The only downside is the chair and table are full of ant and some remain food still on the chair and floor. Seafood paste should be a bit more spicy according to Thai standard. Need a better cleaning process. All staff are polite tho.

One of the best places we ate in Ayutthaya, the service was very good, location lovely and food pretty good too and much preferred it to the more famous, but not worth it, restaurant next door. The river shrimp were delicious and huge, cooked really well. The only thing we were a little disappointed by was the fish in chili, garlic and lime sauce, as it was not spicy or sour enough by comparison to when we have eaten it before. Price was reasonable, not cheap, but river prawns are never cheap. Overall, well worth it!

Located near the picturesque Wat Rattanachai temple and just a stone's throw from the serene Chao Phraya River, this charming eatery offers diners not only delicious meals but also stunning riverside views from its inviting terrace.
Opened for more than 50 years, this traditional Thai restaurant is a living legendary and continue serving their delicious menus. This place is actually one of my favorites place for my family nsine I was a young kid. Must try menus including grilled river prawn, green curry with fish ball stuffers with salted egg, Deep fried soft-fleshed fish, and many many more. Recently, Micheline Guide just have this restaurant in the list, Which make this place even more popular and hard to get the table without early booking for the busy day like weekend. Definitely go back again and again. Love this place.

Saithongriver Restaurant is a popular dining spot located near Ayutthaya's renowned temples, offering a picturesque riverfront setting. The menu features delectable local Thai dishes, with highlights such as Chu chee fish curry, Tom yum soup, and Crispy pork with chili. While most items are reasonably priced, the giant river prawns are a bit more expensive but highly recommended for their deliciousness.
Best fancy Thai meal. The flavours were sublime and the river prawns are unlike anything I've ever tasted. The crispy pork belly was so originally done. Everything is as fresh and flavourful and prices were great too. Obviously prawns were the more expensive thing on the menu, as fresh seafood tends to be. But well priced at about 800 baht per prawn. Staff all very helpful. Google translate helped. If I'm ever back in the area: will certainly be back here.

Food is okay but I don’t think I would come back. The view is beautiful, which might justify the price for some. The service was fast but without any enthusiasm. Overall, a skip. If you’re a tourist in the city for the day, come if you really want a river view. If you do decide to come, here is what we ordered: prawns (pricey for their sizes), spring rolls, and garlic pork. I would say order rice with the meal as it doesn’t come with it. I can’t judge the desserts as I haven’t tried any.
F A — Google review
Unfortunately we weren't happy with the food and we weren't happy with the service either. We were there for a late lunch, the waiters and waitresses were just bored and didn't feel like working, that's how they left the impression. Most of them sat at tables with cell phones in hand. They were friendly, yes, but everything seemed fake and like they were just bothering the employees. The food and drinks were brought to the table, after which we were forgotten. No questions were asked about whether everything was OK or whether we would like to order drinks, coffee, or a dessert. Even at the drinks machine, where I looked at the types of beer, I wasn't asked which one I wanted. Well, the food itself wasn't particularly well tempered and tasted, kind of boring and tasteless. I couldn't continue eating the shrimp. The taste was somehow strange. My impression was confirmed. Even today, days later, I still have stomach/intestinal problems and can constantly run to the toilet. The decor in the restaurant is more reminiscent of a canteen than a restaurant, dishes and cutlery made of plastic/melanin and cheap metal cutlery. All of this left a rather bad and negative impression, I'm sorry. After this experience, I would not recommend the restaurant Actually, only a single STAR, but the terrace with the view of the river is really nice. The food, service, and drinks have a maximum of one STAR for this time. The total bill was almost 1000 THB, and the performance was simply too poor for that I'm so sorry, but it was not really good at all...

Nice restaurant by the river serving tasty local Thai foods. There was live music performing in the evening. Reasonable price and attentive staff. Parking in front of the restaurant are available, but during peak hours, need to park on the road side. There were staffs to assist. Recommend.

The view next to the river makes the atmosphere very chilling and relaxing. Some of the dishes were nice. The juicy shrimps in Kilograms were highly recommended. However, it's a pity that the river shrimps (500/800) that we received were not so fresh and dried.

Especially, Jade fish(Pla yok) - didn’t use the toilet so I don’t know about the cleanliness

Baan Mai Rim Num AYUTTHAYA is a popular riverside restaurant in Ayutthaya, known for serving traditional seafood dishes family-style. The casual, open-air eatery offers plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors, attracting both locals and tourists. One of the highlights is the grilled jumbo river prawns, which are sold by weight and known for their succulent and sweet meat.
It was a fantastic dining experience! The food was excellent, and the service was both efficient and genuinely warm. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The seafood was particularly impressive and could be adjusted to suit our spice tolerance. The ambiance captured an authentic provincial Thai feel, which added to the charm. We appreciated the option of an air-conditioned area—a welcome break from the heat—while the riverside section offered a breezy and pleasant alternative for those who prefer outdoor dining. Overall, we’d definitely rate this as one of the best restaurants we visited, especially considering the quality relative to the price.

Great river prawns!! Other dishes are fine, nothing special! We have ordered 8 prawns, but got only 3 after finishing all dishes. The rest we packed it home! It was a bit strange!! The price is a bit high compared to nearby restaurants. Parking is not available, only street parking.

Dropped by for dinner, quite a few people in, nice atmosphere, very friendly, reasonably priced and good food, have grilled river prawns, like most places priced on weight, very tasty. Overlooks river, ferry just near it taking motor bikes etc across, fascinating to watch. The frontage is set back from the road then you go through some prep/storage bit to get to it.

Riverside Thai restaurant with their famous grilled River prawn. If you plan to come here after 12:00 I’d recommend reservation in advance(River prawns also should be reserved too). They offer variety of Thai foods which were all very delicious with reasonable price. The grilled river prawns have many sizes/prices to choose from. They were heavenly tasty, juicy and perfectly prepared! After you order Grilled river prawns, they will be a menu which the prawns’s claw meat will be used to make such as stirred fried with seasonings, omelet and etc. for a special price. If you have UOB credit card I highly recommend to use them as they likely are main sponsor for this restaurant and have special promotions.

Chao Phrom Market is a vibrant traditional market in Ayutthaya, dating back to the time of the city's capital. It offers a wide variety of goods, from local delicacies and fresh produce to unique merchandise not found elsewhere. The market never closes and is always bustling with activity, offering everything from fruits, vegetables, fish, and meats to electrical and household goods. Visitors can indulge in affordable and mouthwatering meals while exploring local Thai flavors at the street stalls.
Busy market from early morning to around lunchtime. I usually drop by after work, but there's not a lot of options anymore. Nevertheless, I still get to buy my favorite kinds of veggies and some meat. There are many stalls that sell different kinds of products too ranging from clothes, school supplies, fruits and ready to eat food.

Very beautiful. After taking the locomotive train from Bangkok to Ayutthaya, cross over from the train station to take a ferry to Chao Phrom pier. It's only 10 baht. From there, you can charter a bicycle, motorcycle or tuk tuk tour at a very cheap rate from a shop name December House. It's a wonderful shop run by a lady named Nid Noi. Very honest, helpful and welcoming person.

De Riva Ayothaya is a spacious riverside restaurant located across from an old Portuguese church, offering a relaxing atmosphere with scenic views of the river. The menu features traditional Ayuthaya-style dishes, with river prawn being a highlight. While enjoying the picturesque setting, visitors can savor Thai cuisine and recommended dishes such as fried pork with curry leaves and snake head fish with spicy herbal sauce.
I had lunch there, ordered grilled river prawn, fried snake head fish with herbal salad, etc. foods are good, outdoor table is decent, not hot, but air con indoor room also available. There were not many clients in lunch but seems more popular for dinner as i saw so many alcohol drink options. Good atmosphere of riverside with beautiful christian church at the other side of river shore, with live band at evening (Seeing musical band stage and equipment)

Cozy restaurant with river view, river prawn is nice and price is ok compare to other restaurants in the area (THB 500 and 700 / prawn). I think the size I took today is a bit small than I expected but don’t mind coz it’s fresh. Dinner time at this restaurant is very good scenery with cool air flow. The owner is very nice and supportive. Booking is needed if you want the river side desk.

Roti Sai Mai Abeedeen-Pranom Sangaroon is a popular Thai snack and Ayutthaya's favorite sweet treat. It consists of thin round roti wrapped around colorful candy floss, believed to have been adapted from a Muslim-Indian sweet recipe. The snack is typically sold by Thai Muslim vendors in Ayutthaya, where there is a large Muslim community. Over the years, the dish has evolved with influences from Portuguese introduction of eggs.
It’s a popular store for this kind of local dessert. We thought we should reserve on INS or Facebook one day before but we are lucky to buy by walk-in. I thought it to taste like dragon beard candy because they look similar, but it's not like that at all. The coconut soup is crispy and not sticky or greasy, and the sesame biscuits have the aroma of sesame. The combination of the two flavors is addictive. I didn’t eat anything like this previously. If it has a long expire date I will definitely bring to my friends and family members for sharing👍

The roti that you can't miss in the city! It's so authentic and delicious. Michelin certified and halal friendly.

Kung Phuean Praew is a popular seafood restaurant known for its variety of fresh and affordable seafood options. The grilled shrimp is a standout dish, perfectly cooked to juicy perfection with a clear taste and al dente texture. The restaurant also offers fresh fish and clam dishes, while the nearby fish market allows customers to purchase seafood for takeaway or home cooking.
Must visit this excellent sea food restaurant perfect for prawn 🦐 lovers. The grilled prawns are the best - there’s no doubt about it. 🌟 - River prawns 🦐 👍 - steamed sea bass fish 🐟 👍 - crab fried rice 🦀 👍 Other side dish items were good too.

Pretty good seafood restaurant. The seafood is either swimming or jumping prior to you ordering, so freshness is guaranteed. Crab fried rice and grilled prawns (Gung pao) are winners. Prices are alright if you're with a group.

If shrimp were a religion, this place would be the temple. Tucked along the road of Ayutthaya, this lunch gem delivers shrimp so fresh they probably filled out a time sheet this morning. Swap riverside with marketside. The grilled river prawns? Massive. Like, “should I tip this prawn?” massive. Heads full of rich, golden fat that made us question everything we thought we knew about flavor—and cholesterol. We went in thinking we’d order light. We left Googling if it’s socially acceptable to drink prawn oil straight. Sides were no afterthought either—spicy dips that slap, rice that actually compliments the meal instead of just showing up, and a riverside view that’s one strong gust away from a full food meditation session. Bonus: zero tourist-trap energy. Just good food, good people, and shrimp that might haunt our dreams (in the best way). Come hungry, leave full—and maybe with a few shrimp shells in your pocket for emotional support.

A Must-Try Grilled Shrimp Spot in Ayutthaya! 🦐🔥 If you're visiting Ayutthaya, you can’t leave without trying some grilled river prawns—and this place is one of the best! The province is known for its shrimp, and while there are many restaurants to choose from, this one stands out with its great flavor and reasonable prices. The restaurant is surrounded by other grilled shrimp spots, but what makes this one special is how perfectly they grill the prawns. The texture is still juicy and bouncy, and you can really taste the natural sweetness. I ordered 1 kg of grilled shrimp (they were huge!), asked them to use some to make Tom Yum Goong (spicy prawn soup), and added a separate dish of fried shrimp. Everything was super fresh and flavorful. This place is really popular with locals, so I recommend coming early—around 11:00–11:30 AM. I arrived at 11:10, and by the time I finished placing my order, the restaurant was nearly full. They have 3 seating zones, and two of them were packed already! If you're a seafood lover, don’t miss this gem in Ayutthaya!

A Seafood Haven for River Prawn Lovers Located conveniently by the northern main highway, Kung Phuean Praew is a popular stop for seafood enthusiasts, especially tourists. Known for its signature grilled river prawns, the highlight here is the combination of juicy prawns and their flavorful seafood sauce. Be warned, though—the sauce has quite a spicy kick, so an extra bottle of water might come in handy for those less spice-inclined. The menu also features a variety of seafood options, including fishes, squids and crabs, ensuring there’s something for everyone. The restaurant boasts both indoor and outdoor seating, offering a relaxed ambiance to enjoy your meal. Prices are surprisingly affordable, leaning on the cheaper side without compromising quality. Service is attentive, and the food is prepared quickly, even during busy hours. With plenty of parking available, Kung Phuean Praew makes for a perfect pit stop for anyone craving authentic Thai seafood, especially their famed river prawns.

Not recommended. Firstly staff was kinda fixed seat for us when I asked if we can sit on the other side she said it’s full (though only 1-2 tables occupied and no other customers in the cafe). When we looked at the cake inside the cake fridge, the staff at the cashier was unwelcome and said that the menu is in the book (while no cake menu inside the menu book). When we sit at the specified table, the seat was very very dirty (you can see from last picture) and we needed to ask them to replace the chair (I read some comment that they never clean table from one customer to another which is probably true). For the food, it’s quite disappointed, the ice cream was very sweet though the texture of Thai desserts was quite nice but doesn’t taste good, plus the coconut milk that usually come with Thai desserts usually is a bit salty to go with the sweetness, but here the coconut milk was tasteless. Desserts were a bit pricey. Overall quite a bad experience here both food and service and would not recommend to anyone.

"Inthanin, Young Coconut with Coconut Milk ice cream" A Sweet Fusion: Modern Thai Desserts Done Right! If you're looking for a dessert experience that perfectly blends traditional Thai flavors with modern ice cream creations, look no further than A lovely table. This charming spot has truly mastered the art of elevating classic Thai sweets into delightful frozen treats. What immediately stands out is their innovative approach. They've taken the rich, complex flavors of Thai desserts and transformed them into wonderfully refreshing ice cream and other sweet concoctions. It's a fantastic way to experience familiar tastes in an exciting new format. I highly recommend their Inthanin Young Coconut with Coconut Milk ice cream. This flavor is an absolute standout! It perfectly captures the essence of inthanin, a beloved Thai dessert, with its delicate pandan aroma and the subtle chewiness often found in the original. The young coconut adds a refreshing sweetness and texture, while the rich, creamy coconut milk base ties it all together beautifully. It's incredibly fragrant, perfectly balanced, and not overly sweet – a true testament to their craftsmanship. Beyond the unique flavors, the shop offers a cozy and inviting atmosphere, making it a perfect spot to relax and indulge. Whether you're a fan of Thai desserts or just looking for a unique ice cream experience, A lovely table is a must-visit. You won't be disappointed!

Our third food stop of the day brought us to Pa Lek Boat Noodle, and stepping in felt like diving straight into a truly local Bangkok experience. The place had that comforting, slightly chaotic buzz—locals chatting over steaming bowls, tourists snapping photos, and the unmistakable aroma of rich broth and spices filling the air. The boat noodles here are the real deal—deep, savory flavors that taste like they’ve been perfected over generations. They keep it simple: pork or beef, that’s it. No overcomplication, just pure, authentic taste. The portions are small (as boat noodles traditionally are), which makes it perfect to try a few bowls and mix things up. Honestly, it’s part of the fun—slurping one bowl, ordering another, and before you know it, you’ve lost count of how many you’ve had. Service? Lightning fast. Bowls arrive within minutes, and despite the crowd, everything runs like clockwork. It’s no wonder the place is so popular—it proudly wears the Michelin Bib Gourmand badge, and every spoonful proves why. Pa Lek Boat Noodle isn’t just a meal—it’s an experience. The kind that leaves you full but still wanting “just one more bowl.”

Lady boss can speak fluent English, which is helpful. The noodles tasted sweet compare to other stores. The dry egg noodle is a must try. Recommended to visit if you are in Ayutthaya!

Very easy system, a manageable menu of different boat noodle options, with English descriptions, 20 baht a bowl. Couldn't be easier, relaxed friendly staff. Great for experimenting with the different types of boat noodles. Not as challenging as some dishes can be, so definitely more foriegner friendly. Found the taste here just right and ready to eat. The dry noodles were great, definitely recommend. Don't miss all the desert stalls outside, everything we got there was excellent. Great experience for lunch while in Ayutthaya.

Famous boat noodle spot famous among the locals located right opposite of Wat Mahathat. The small size of the bowl allows you to slurp it very fast. Both the rice noodle soup and dry noodle is good. However, broth is a little bit sour.

Can't beat boat noodles at 20 baht a bowl. Also the location makes it super convenient, it's a perfect pitstop after exploring the ruins (just across the road from the Wat Mahathat complex). For me personally the must-order is dry pork noodles!

The noodle shop Klong Srabua Boat Noodle is famous for its delicious boat noodles, which are made with shrimp and egg. The noodles are tasty and inexpensive, making it a great place to enjoy a meal. The satay here is also good, but not outstanding. Overall, the restaurant is pleasant and reasonably priced.
During our day trip to Ayutthaya we toured the main temples together with Tony in his pink tuktuk. For lunch he drove us here to this place on the road that surprised us. Here we can safely say that we ate the best Pad Thai of our entire trip to Thailand. For a plate of pad thai we paid only 60 thb. The place is very spartan, a typical street food restaurant, frequented by locals and when we went there were also many students. If you are passing through the area, I recommend stopping and trying it out.

Khlong Srabua Boat Noodle Shop is a hidden gem for noodle lovers. Nestled along the serene canal, it offers authentic boat noodles bursting with rich flavors and perfectly tender meat. The portions are generous, the ingredients are fresh, and the prices are wonderfully reasonable. The laid-back atmosphere, coupled with scenic water views, creates a delightful dining experience. With ample parking and friendly service, it’s an ideal spot for a casual yet memorable meal. Whether you're a local or a traveler, this noodle shop promises a taste of traditional Thai cuisine at its best.

I had an amazing beef rice noodle bowl here at a very affordable price.

Local Thai boat noodle shop. The noodle was delicious. The soup was tasty with a little bit spicy. There are both beef noodle and pork noodle. I prefer beef noodle than pork one. The beef was tender and good. There’s also Pad Tai but I didn’t try. Very crowdy at noon. Need to wait for queue around 20 minutes. There was no parking availble. Need to park roadside.

Baan Ta-Koh-Rai is a renowned eatery in Ayutthaya, known for its delectable prawn dishes. Their menu boasts a variety of options, including sangwa kung (prawns in tangy tamarind sauce) and grilled river prawns that vary depending on the season. This establishment has been recommended by Bib gourmand for offering tasty food at reasonable prices.
This is one of my favorite traditional Thai restaurants. They serve Thai dishes in large portions. We ordered the recommended dishes, such as kale stir-fried with salted fish, sun-dried squid, pork cartilage stir-fried with shrubby basil, prawn and herb with spicy salad(Sangwa Goong) and fish jungle curry. The food had a mellow taste, the ingredients were fresh, and the service was fast. Highly recommended to try at least once. It gets crowded at lunchtime, so it’s better to come early or make a reservation in advance.

Nice Thai traditional food with local ingredients. Located on the Asia road. Easy parking in front of the restaurant. On holidays, there maybe a long queue, so be sure to save some time. The food is worth waiting. Juicy, yummy, and crispy. There are open-air and A/C zones to choose from.

Traditional Thai Food from the Upper Central Region – Absolutely Awesome! The food here is seriously impressive. It came out super fast, and there were plenty of staff on standby to take care of everything — very attentive service. We arrived around 11 AM, which was perfect since it wasn’t too busy yet. But after 12… yep, it gets packed! So come early if you can. I ordered all the recommended dishes and honestly, every single one was spot on. Delicious! Heads-up: The portions are quite generous, so if you’re coming with a small group, don’t over-order — you’ll be stuffed!

This is a very popular restaurant, so be prepared to queue for a little bit when you come around lunch peak time. Though it is 1000% worth it! It is not a fancy restaurant, at all. But the food, wow. It is one of the purest, most authentic restaurants that I have been to with so much flavor in their dishes. It is not for nothing that this restaurant was in the Michelin guide for multiple years already. The dishes are more expensive than elsewhere, but don't forget that the dishes are double size than elsewhere! When ordering 1 dish it can easily fit 2 persons. Don't make the same mistake as us as we ordered 3 dishes and it was absolutely too much. Luckily we could have it for takeaway to eat again in the evening. Recommended!!

There's an air-conditioned room available if you find the open-air seating too hot, which is a nice option. The food came out quickly, and the freshly squeezed orange juice was so good we ended up buying another bottle to take home! The whole deep-fried fish with crispy garlic was a bit dry, and I found the green curry a little too sweet, but that seems to be the typical flavor profile in this central region. Overall, I'd still give the food a solid 4.8 stars. Definitely worth a visit.

If you're on the lookout for a delightful dining experience in Ayutthaya, look no further than Civilize Ayutthaya. This modern Thai restaurant truly embodies its name by serving up authentic Thai cuisine, with river prawns grilled to perfection over charcoal being one of their standout dishes. The spacious venue offers both indoor and outdoor seating options, including a charming patio terrace that overlooks the serene Chao Phraya River—ideal for enjoying a laid-back meal.

Civilize Ayutthaya, a restaurant that positions itself as a refined destination for traditional Thai cuisine, delivers on its culinary promise but stumbles in the realm of ambience—a flaw that, unfortunately, overshadows an otherwise enjoyable meal. Our selection included grilled river prawns, spicy corn salad with salted egg, and pork shoulder with spicy sauce. The grilled prawns, while boasting a pleasant smokiness, raised concerns regarding their freshness; the texture lacked the desirable bounciness expected from premium river prawns. The other dishes, however, upheld the standards of a well-executed Thai meal, meeting expectations without exceeding them. Yet, what truly marred the experience was the inexplicably disruptive atmosphere. On the day of our visit, a large group had taken it upon themselves to turn the dining space into their personal karaoke lounge—an intrusion that was neither subtle nor remotely bearable. Had the singing been even moderately pleasant, one might have endured it. But alas, the performers seemed to have a particular talent for missing every note, their off-key renditions clashing brutally with the restaurant’s supposed “high-class” image. For the price point and positioning of the establishment, such an allowance for blaring, amateur karaoke was baffling and wholly inappropriate. Service-wise, the staff displayed commendable enthusiasm, but no level of attentiveness could compensate for the auditory assault we endured. Ultimately, Civilize Ayutthaya delivers a solid meal but fails spectacularly in preserving the refined dining experience it claims to offer. A restaurant of this calibre should prioritise ambience as much as its cuisine—after all, what is fine dining without a setting to match?

Khaotom Chedi, also known as Khaotom Pak Ma, is a unique dining spot where there's no menu; you have to ask the owner for what's available. The fried crab meat with garlic and chili and the Tom Yum with red tail catfish are recommended dishes. Despite the long wait times and reasonable prices, the food is delicious and suitable for all ages.
Warning: This might be a biased post, but I love the taste so much that we went there twice, even though we were staying 30 minutes away from the restaurant. (Hence the 5 stars overall!) I heard great things about this place, so we came to try it out. And Omg! It’s so good! I’ll definitely be back next time we visit Ayutthaya. There’s no set menu—just tell them what you’re craving, and they’ll either make it or suggest something amazing.

Bustling, low key restaurant located near to the Chedi Wat Sam Pluem. The place is very popular, so you may have to wait for a table. There is no menu or pricing, the owner comes to the table to give you the options (you can check online for reviews of the restaurant to give you an idea). The dishes we ordered were pretty good, but we waited 60 minutes to get our food after ordering. A little over priced for what we ordered.

We stayed at the classic kameo hotel and were looking at Google maps for a place to eat. This restaurant is popular and only 10 min walk from our hotel. The food was really good and lucky for us that we weren't hungry because we had to wait 75 minutes to our order.

Here Kae Pork Satay หมูสะเต๊ะเฮียแกละ อยุธยา is a renowned spot in Ayutthaya, run by a third-generation grill master. This over ninety-year-old shophouse is beloved for its charcoal-grilled pork satay, marinated with nine aromatic spices.
Thai skewers at it's best! Good place! Friendly owner but limited space for dining. This dish which is featured in Malaysian, Singapore and Indonesian cuisine is basically quite similar using a peanut base sauce. This version however is pretty good, nicely charred bread goes well with the sauce. Good balance marinades with salads. Highly recommended.

Here Kae Pork Satay wasn’t just a food stop—it felt like visiting a friend you’ve known for years. The moment I arrived, the owner’s energy filled the place. Super lively, always smiling, and genuinely welcoming. Before I even ordered, we were already chatting, laughing, and snapping a few photos together. Looking around, the walls are absolutely covered with pictures of past customers—locals, tourists, regulars—all proudly displayed. You can tell right away this isn’t just a business for the owner; it’s a passion, a community, and something he takes real pride in. Now, the pork satay itself—let’s just say it’s a flavor bomb. Juicy, tender pork with a hint of sweetness that hits just right. Pair that with the rich, slightly chunky peanut sauce, and you’ve got yourself a match made in street food heaven. The sweetness might surprise you at first, but it’s addictive. You’ll be reaching for stick after stick before you even realize it. Seating here is very limited—it’s mainly a takeaway spot—but honestly, it adds to the charm. You get that bustling, street-side vibe, watching locals grab their orders while you’re soaking in the smells of fresh-grilled satay. And here’s the kicker—it’s Michelin-recognized. That little plaque by the stall isn’t just for show; every bite proves it’s well-earned. If you’re in Bangkok and want to taste something that’s not just about the food but also the heart behind it, Here Kae Pork Satay is a must. Sweet, smoky, nutty, and served with a smile you won’t forget.

Daily open from 4 to 10 pm. Save a lot of room to get a pack of munchies and juicy food plus drinks. Spend little, get a lot. Take some fresh fruits and Thai local snacks home. Cloths and gifts are available right here. Easy access, just park your car, motorcycle or bikes around the corner or on the side of the road. What are you waiting for? Now, come on!!

Probably the best night market in Thailand I’ve been to as a foodie. They literally have everything when it comes to authentic Thai food. It is all complemented by an amazing scenery. Better than any night market in Bangkok and Chaing Mai for sure.

Very old school taste night market. The taste is awesome and cheap. Evry food I bought is transitional Thai flavor. You know Bangkok is filled with a lot of tourist thus a lot stall will change some flavor to meet tourist fkavor. Thus night market is full of transitional flavor with strong Thai flavor

Lung Lek Boat Noodle is a popular noodle shop in Ayutthaya, Thailand. It serves up a hearty and spicy soup made with beef stew. Its popularity has led to Lung Lek Boat Noodle becoming quite popular among locals and tourists alike.
We came here during the lunch time. Initially we want to go the the Michelin guide resto, but they were close. This place is also a good alternative. Price is higher, portion is bigger. The taste is slightly saltier than the others that is sweeter. The staffs speak english pretty well. Food come faster. Don't forget to try their satay. So tasty.

Out of this world flavor. Portions are a bit small but the broth is fantastic. We ordered beef with egg noodle and I cannot believe how great it is. Thank you Lung Lek for serving us such delicious food. This is a very traditional restaurant. You must try it if you are nearby Eat Mahathat

A place we have had on our to-check-out list for a while, we went about a week ago. Located quite centrally in the city island, the space is quite open and breezy. There are a few good stations operating under the same roof, beef noodle, pork noodle, satay, grilling stations for bananas and meatballs and beverages We sampled the noodles, some side dishes including satay I would say that the noodles were competent, but nothing that I would go out of my way to visit, a solid 3-star rating The satay, on the other hand, was excellent. The pork is quite lean, but it is still quite moist and soft. We had to repeat our order before we left. It is the satay that would bring us back

The food is quite ordinary, nothing special. The price is acceptable.

I visit here following the google reviews. You choose plan for car parking because there is only small slot in front the restaurant, it means that you have to park your car beside the main road. Please order the big size or special one of noodles because you will be surprised with normal size Lol. Boat noodles with beef are so delicious here. You should try boat noodles at this restaurant if you visit Ayutthaya.

This is the original one of Kuay Tiew Rue Ayutthaya, they use coconut milk for soup, don’t use blood. Small bowl is 20฿ Big bowl is 40฿ You can choose meat pork or beef, meatball, braised meat, entrails, boiled meat or mix together. Of you order Kuay Tiew Rue without soup, they will serve with a piece of lime! Parking on the road or car park near by Delicious with the authentic recipe Very cheap price Recommend

It was alright in terms of local food. Not the best noodles I've had, but it was good. Lunch crowd was pretty packed. Not much parking in front of the restaurant. It's very cheap though, servings are not that big. A place to check when your in the area.
