About Chamlong's

Bangkok’s plant-based crowd bypasses the market food courts and heads straight here—an open-air canteen beside Chatuchak dedicated entirely to *ahaan jay*. The routine is simple: swap cash for paper coupons at the entrance, then point your way along the counter. Regulars load tables with bowls of sharp Tom Yum, mock-meat laab, and ten-baht mushroom skewers, with most plates hovering around thirty baht. An adjoining shop stocks shelves of dried legumes and bottled sauces before vendors pack down their metal trays for the afternoon.

  • Central Coupon Exchange: Diners exchange cash for paper coupons at the entrance counter to purchase dishes across stalls, cashing out leftover tickets before leaving.
  • Ultra-Low Prices: Most plates run between 25 and 35 baht, offering everything from fresh vegetable curries to 10-baht grilled mushroom skewers.
  • Chatuchak Market Proximity: Located just an eight-minute walk from Kamphaeng Phet MRT, serving as an easy, quick dining stop right by Chatuchak Weekend Market.
  • Adjoining Vegetarian Grocery: An adjoining retail shop carries vegetarian pantry staples, sauces, bulk grains, and natural household supplies.

  • Surprising Joy for Every Palate

    Even non-vegetarians find tremendous culinary satisfaction and delight in the high-quality, flavorful food for pennies.

    I’m not a fan of veganism but with this quality food at this low price, I guess I can live with that.

  • Ideal Dining Stop Near Chatuchak Market

    Conveniently situated right by Chatuchak market, it offers the ultimate wholesome refuel stop before or after shopping.

    This place was very cheap, so I bought a bunch of different options and finished the ones that I liked the most. Best place near the weekend market.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the payment and coupon system work?

You cannot pay stall vendors directly with cash. Instead, buy paper coupons at the exchange counter near the entrance, use them to order food from the stalls, and receive any change in paper coupons. Unused coupons can be exchanged back for Thai baht before you leave.

What is the best time of day to arrive?

Arrive early in the morning or around lunchtime. Many food options sell out, and stalls begin running out of items or winding down in the early afternoon, so visiting before 1:00 PM to 1:30 PM ensures the fullest selection.

Is there a grocery or specialty shop on-site?

Yes, an adjoining natural food and dry goods market sells specialty vegetarian pantry staples, sauces, seasonings, and packaged items next to the dining area.

Do you need to speak Thai to order food?

Most stall vendors do not speak English and dishes are not labeled in English, but vendors are patient and comfortable with pointing. Having a translation app ready or knowing basic Thai words can also be helpful.
