[2025 Bangkok Restaurant] Travel Guide for LAB ega_bangkok Songwat Road (Updated May)

This area, which has become popular in recent years, not only carries the historical style of old Bangkok, but also gathers countless treasure shops and young creative energy, making people unable to stop once they step in! Songwa Road is not long, but there are surprises at every corner: independent bookstores, hipster selection shops, vintage furniture, design brands and specialty cafes. The old houses, warehouses, iron window grilles and arcade buildings of the early Chinese settlements are preserved here, but they are infused with the soul of the new generation. Many shops are run by young Thais, with unique styles and a friendly atmosphere. We originally planned to just take a short stroll, but we ended up being trapped here for the entire afternoon once we walked in, visiting one store after another. Even in the evening we still felt that we didn't have enough time, and many alleys hadn't been explored in depth. It was like we were playing an urban version of a treasure hunt game. Not only do young Thai people like to come here to party, go shopping and take photos on weekends, but it is also attracting more and more international tourists. If you like a non-typical city trip and don’t want to just visit the popular attractions, then you should definitely add Songwa Old Town to your list of must-visit places in Bangkok! 📍Practical information • Area Name｜Songwat Road • Address｜Near Chinatown and Chao Phraya River • Recommended time｜1:00 pm – evening, suitable for walking, taking photos and drinking coffee. It is recommended to arrange a half-day or full-day slow tour #Songwat #BangkokOldTown #TreasureShop #BangkokWalkingMap #HipsterCafé #OldHouseRebirth #MustGoBangkok #ThailandFreeTravel #BangkokExplore #OldHouseLoversParadise #CityWalk #AprilGoodPlaces2025 #AprilGoodDestinations2025

#springitinerary #Songwat Just behind Chinatown, Songwat Road is a treasure trove for slow walks and stylish snaps. It’s a small street—but packed with charm: Boutique candle and perfume shops Trendy cafés and dessert spots Artsy lifestyle stores Delicious Thai eateries I hadn’t been for a few months and was surprised to see so many new openings! There's now a super unique local dessert shop, a curated Thai fragrance boutique, and shops selling aromatherapy sprays and hand sanitizers—so aesthetic. Pro tip: After wandering, head to "Baan Rim Naam Songwat" by the river. It’s the perfect chill spot—sip coffee, watch the sunset, and enjoy some well-earned peace.

#BangkokTrafficStrategy🇹🇭Song Wat does not visit scenic spots·citywalk niche routes🚶 Song Wat Road near Chinatown is definitely a paradise for those who love citywalk in the old city! Walking into here is like opening the door to a new world. Completely different from the bustling Siam, this place is filled with a retro atmosphere of fireworks. Every shot is full of the atmosphere of old Thai dramas. Even the vehicles and passers-by that break into the camera seem to have stories to tell. There are interesting shops along the road and many graffiti walls. Although the street is not long, you can take a leisurely stroll without feeling tired. Each store has unique creativity and is worth stopping to appreciate. The point is that it is a very photogenic place. Even if you don’t buy anything, you can still enjoy yourself by just taking a walk. This is a street full of freedom and relaxation. 📸Picture 4️⃣ is Elephants by ROA in Bangkok, with a cool elephant graffiti location; Picture 5️⃣ is Local Boy Coffee, which presents a cool cyberpunk style.

Song Wat Road really made me fall in love with city walk 🧡 If you come to Bangkok, it would be a pity to just visit the night market in the mall

On a holiday, walk around Songwad, take pictures at cool angles. There are so many restaurants with everything. The prices may be a bit high, but not too much. Overall, it's beautiful. Go!

One day I went for a walk on Song Wat Road. I felt tired so I had to stop by for something refreshing to drink. So I tried this Eka restaurant. This restaurant is actually a restaurant that my friends recommended, but I didn't come to eat. I came to drink coffee and one of my friends drank other drinks. I personally think the prices are quite high, but I understand that it is in an area that is currently a tourist area. The drinks taste good. The staff provides very good service. The shop is well decorated and has many photo spots. #Get a discount without relying on luck

Café hopping in Chinatown on a day so hot, I’m pretty sure the sun was personally offended by my vacation vibes. **Sweat?** More like a free spa facial. 💦 But hey, the universe rewarded us with air-conditioned oases disguised as cafes! Highlights: - **Coffee so good**, it made me forgive the weather gods for their spicy sense of humor. Iced latte? More like *iced salvation*. - **Café aesthetics** that had me Instagramming like a tourist who just discovered filters. “Look, I’m *~serene~*… ignore the sweat mustache.” 😌 - **Staff who smiled** despite watching yet another heat-crazed customer (me) order three drinks in a row. “Yes, I need all the caffeine. No, I don’t have a problem.” Pro tip: If you’re not melting into a puddle by 11 AM, you’re not doing it right. Bonus points if you pretend the steam from your coffee is your soul evaporating. Verdict: **10/10 would risk heatstroke again** for those cozy vibes and cold brews. Bangkok’s Chinatown: where every café is a lifesaver, and every iced coffee comes with a side of “I love my life… *sorta*.” 🫠✨ *P.S. Wear deodorant. You’re welcome.*

📍Address: Song Wat Road, Bangkok Hip hip cafes are all next to each other You hardly have to walk far A single street has everything The cakes are delicious, the coffee, green tea, and cocoa It's awesome.

At E-ga LAB on Songwat Road, the desserts are highly praised, with a variety of cakes available. The restaurant is known for its authentic home-style Thai food, but it also offers a delightful selection of cakes (I mean MANY PEICES OF CAKE!!!🍰🍰🍰🍰) are worth visiting for, even if just for coffee and dessert. The atmosphere is vintage and modern, blending well with the old-school vibe of the area. While specific cake flavors are not detailed, the overall experience suggests a pleasant spot for both Thai cuisine and sweet treats.#songwat #bkkcafe #cafe #cake #Bagkok #รับส่วนลดไม่พึ่งดวง

#GetDiscountsWithoutLuck Aga, a classic breakfast restaurant in Song Wat area Actually, this restaurant is open all day. If you want to eat breakfast like this, we recommend coming in the morning. Because this menu is only available in the morning from 8-11 am. The menu that we like the most is American fried rice. Eating it makes you feel like you've been back in time. The fried chicken is big and full of flavor. Fried until dry, just right. Another menu that we want you to try is the grilled rice. The shrimp noodle rolls are also good. If you want to eat breakfast like this, don't miss it. 📍Aga Restaurant, Song Wat ⏰Open every day from 08:00-11:00 #EscapeYouToJourney #Breakfast #Song Wat

Had the opportunity to go for a walk along #ThanonSongwat, which has cool photo spots all along the way. There are more cafes opening along this street than before. Especially now that the weather is nice, walking and taking photos during the day isn't so hot. Traveling is easy. You can take an orange flag boat and get off at Ratchawong Pier, or you can take bus no. 40 or 56 and get off at Sampeng, then walk a bit further. Take the MRT from Yaowarat to Wat Mangkon Station, and then you can walk all day in this area.

Song Wat Road in Bangkok. Looks vintage with quite a lot of coffee shop. Good for chilling.

Good service, a variety of food to choose from, but the shop is quite narrow. Interestingly, there are a lot of cakes to choose from, not expensive, delicious taste. The bathroom is beautiful, there are many angles to take pictures. It seems that this shop has many branches. I have been to Siam Paragon. There is fragrant tea to drink. I especially like this shop because every cake looks delicious. It captures the signature of the cake's appearance and true taste. #cafe

It is a trip to take pictures of the atmosphere in the shop, which is beautiful. You can take pictures from any angle and post them. The front of the shop is a spot where many people take pictures. The atmosphere in the shop is very good. You must go at least once.

Today I have a chance to visit the capital city, oh my oh my~~ I have been following TT for a while, so I have to open my experience at Song Wat Road, a short road about 1 kilometer long, but it is full of shops decorated with art and vintage, attracting us to walk into every shop. But I am not a person who likes to like things, so I only got a few pictures. FV Shop This shop is popular in TT. The food is delicious, refreshing, and satisfying. Most importantly, every angle is beautiful to take pictures of. Aga Shop We only took pictures of the front of the shop, not inside because it is a landmark that must be photographed. I want everyone to go. Walk around and relax. If you don't know where to go, go to Song Wat Road #100 ways to travel

🐇🍰A Pink Rabbit + Bob Songwad 🐰🍓 . This is another shop that makes very delicious cakes. Today we came to the Songwad branch. The shop is located on the roadside. The shop is beautifully decorated. This branch is great for taking pictures. It has a vintage feel, including the furniture that decorates the shop. The branch also sells food. . As for the cake, the price is quite high, but it's worth it. My favorite cake is the Pink Almond Strawberry. If you don't know what to order, I recommend this menu. The other menus are also delicious, but I haven't tried all of them yet. But when I saw it, I couldn't resist because the cakes look really delicious. But the shop also has a VAT and Service Charge.** 😵 📌https://maps.app.goo.gl/moWukMfzgW66Hkiz7 . #paitraveller #paitraveler #PaiTravel #APinkRabbit #Songwad #cafebkk #SongwadCafe #BangkokAttractions #MustVisitCafes #CuteCafes
