Bangsaphan Restaurants
Most of the popular bars and restaurants can be found in the Suan Luang beach area, where most of the accommodation is. There are a lot of Thai food stalls and smaller restaurants in town however very little English is spoken and menus (if they have them) are likely to be only in Thai. One exception to this is Tae’s Restaurant which can be found just along from the railway station. There are a number of Thai seafood restaurants around the bay at Mae Rampheung and probably too many to list here. There are also local markets on Sunday’s, Tuesday’s and Thursday’s that have typical Thai market food and snacks.

Bangsaphan is not a late night place and most restaurants will be closed by 9 pm. Those in the tourist areas will stay open later if they have customers and many close up completely for the low season (May-October).
