5 Best Food Courts in Bangkok

Siam Center food court – or Food Republic, to use its proper name – is a welcome addition to Bangkok’s already plentiful supply. This stylish, gunmetal grey collection of food and beverage stalls has one of the best spreads of world cuisine of any in the capital, as well as a modern décor that blurs the line between food court and restaurant. It’s cool, clean and bustling with a varied clientele of locals and tourists.

Bangkok's legendary Mah Boon Krong (MBK) has 2 food courts: Fifth Food Avenue on the 5th floor and the more frenetic MBK Food Centre on the 6th. One of the most popular shopping malls among locals and tourists, MBK's food halls are geared to keep these hungry shoppers energised at any time of the day or night.

Given the fact that Siam Paragon has proclaimed itself as the 'Pride of Bangkok', its food hall accordingly lives up to that high ideal. Covering a good half of the mall's huge ground floor, the Food Hall is divided into 3 different zones: Food Hall Food Court, Food Hall Gallery, and Food Hall Take Home. You can find a good selection of local and international dishes at surprisingly good prices, given how luxurious the mall is.
