With multiple locations across Bangkok, Veganerie Concept is likely to have a branch near your hotel. Their menu is packed with mouthwatering Western and Thai vegan options. They serve an all-day breakfast that includes treats like smoothie bowls, chia pudding, and pancakes.

For brunch, you can have comforting dishes such as avocado tacos, portobello lasagna, and pizza sets. Their lunch and dinner menus are just as varied.

Vistro Vegan Cafe and Restaurant in Bangkok offers you a creative selection of dishes. They are inspired by global cuisine, each with a local twist.

The flavours here are unforgettable, and you will have no problem finding something delicious to try.

For starters, try their unique vegan sushi options or their flavourful dumplings. Their noodle dishes are a delight, and their desserts are impossible to skip! If you’re travelling with kids, Vistro Cafe also has a dedicated kids’ menu to cater to little ones.

BROCCOLI REVOLUTION SUKHUMVIT 49

Broccoli Revolution is a plant-based eatery and smoothie bar that prioritizes organic and locally grown vegetables. They have several locations across Bangkok, so visiting one during your stay is easy.

Their menu is a mix of different cuisines. You will find dishes like sushi, quesadillas, and gyoza. For mains, they offer international favourites such as Italian pasta and Cambodian-inspired tofu with vegetables.

NINGS MANGO STAND

Did you know that mango sticky rice is usually vegan in Thailand? It’s one of our all-time favourite desserts, and Ning’s Mango Stand in Bangkok serves an exceptional version of it.

The mangos are perfectly sweet, while the sticky rice and sauce are full of flavour. It really is a must-try and affordable treat! You will find mango sticky rice all over the city.

GOLDEN STATE VEGAN RESTAURANT IN BANGKOK

This colourful vegan restaurant in Bangkok is known for its flavour-packed plant-based sushi and upbeat atmosphere. They also offer an excellent selection of cocktails, as well as refreshing non-alcoholic options.

KAEK KAO KUA RESTAURANT

Kaek Kao Kua specializes in traditional Thai dishes made entirely vegan. We tried their Kao Soi, and it was absolutely delicious! The food is flavourful, and their coconut ice cream is a refreshing treat you shouldn’t miss.

The atmosphere feels more like dining at someone’s home rather than a traditional restaurant, but this cosy, informal setting added to the charm for us. The restaurant is a little bit hard to find because from the outside it looks like a residential house.

MANGO VEGETARIAN & VEGAN BANGKOK

Mango Vegetarian & Vegan offers hearty portions, so you’re guaranteed to leave with a full belly. Their menu features traditional Thai dishes such as fried rice, pad Thai, and curries, along with many other options.

Vegan dishes are clearly marked, and vegetarian meals can easily be made vegan upon request. This is a great spot for authentic, plant-based Thai cuisine.

No Thailand travel plan is complete without exploring Bangkok. It is a vibrant city with delicious restaurants, cultural landmarks, bustling street life, and exciting nightlife.

Our carefully selected travel tips will cover transportation, getting around, and choosing the best places to stay in Bangkok. These tips are perfect if you are a first-time visitor or visiting the city often.

1. TRAVEL TIPS FOR GETTING FROM THE AIRPORT TO THE CITY OF BANGKOK

One of the best travel tips is to use the Airport Rail Link when travelling from Suvarnabhumi Airport to the city. This train connects to the BTS Skytrain, making it the fastest and cheapest way to reach your destination.

The journey takes only 26 minutes and costs just 45 baht (around $1.29). The train departs every 10–15 minutes and operates daily from 5:30 AM to midnight. Using this option is a great travel tip to save both time and money. It ist fast, budget-friendly, and efficient.

2. ONE OF THE BEST TRAVEL TIPS FOR BANGKOK: ALWAYS HAVE CASH

One of our crucial Bangkok travel tips is to always carry cash. When you arrive at the airport, withdraw cash for your Airport Rail Link tickets, as they cannot be purchased with a card.

Many people make the mistake of standing in line for tickets, only to find out they cannot pay with a card, wasting valuable time. If you forget to withdraw cash, ATMs are available near the ticket office.

While most places in the city accept cards, public transport, and street vendors often only accept cash. This tip will save you from inconvenience during your travel to Bangkok.

3. USE A RABBIT CARD TO TRAVEL AROUND THE CITY

One of the helpful Bangkok travel tips is to get a Rabbit card. This card can be used for the BTS Skytrain and other transit systems. It’s ideal if you are staying in the city for several days. For short visits, single-entry tickets are available.

4. ONE OF THE BEST TRAVEL TIPS: USE BTS SKYTRAIN

Traffic in Bangkok is notorious, so one of the best travel tips is to use the BTS Skytrain. It’s quick, affordable, and ideal for exploring the city. Tickets can be bought with cash or a Rabbit card.

One extra tip for Bangkok, use Google Maps for navigating the city. It is the easiest and it gives you all the instructions on the BTS routes and timetables.

->You can also get a one-day unlimited BTS Skytrain pass. 

5. TIPS FOR TRAVELLING FASTER IN BANGKOK: USE GRAB SCOOTERS

One of the best Bangkok travel tips is using Grab, a ride-hailing app, to book scooters. Bangkok’s heavy traffic can slow down cars, but scooters can quickly navigate through congested streets. This tip is perfect for those wanting to save time while travelling in the city.

Riding on the back of a motorcycle is also a fun experience, as the skilled driver is navigating the way through the traffic jam. It is perfect if you are a little bit adventurous. 

6. TIPS FOR STAYING CONNECTED DURING YOUR BANGKOK TRAVEL

Stay connected by following this travel tip: use Airalo to purchase an eSIM before you land. Alternatively, you can buy a local SIM card at the airport. However, finding vendors that accept cards can be tricky, as most of them only accept cash.

Using Airalo will save you time for more exciting Bangkok travel adventures.

7. TOP TIPS FOR ENJOYING BANGKOK’S ROOFTOP BARS

One of the top Bangkok travel tips is to visit a rooftop bar. The views of the city are stunning, especially at sunset or late at night. Book in advance, especially on weekends, to secure a spot at the most popular locations.

Our favourite rooftop bar so far is Octave Rooftop Lounge & Bar. Keep this in mind: while the views are amazing, most rooftop bars in Bangkok can be pricey.

8. BANGKOK TRAVEL TIPS FOR CHOOSING A HOTEL

Since traffic in the city is a major issue, one of the best travel tips is to book a hotel near a BTS station. This ensures easy access to public transport and avoids the hassle of dealing with Bangkok’s heavy traffic.
