Bangla Street Food in Patong Beach

Street Food on Bangla Road

Bangla Street Food is the latest opening in Bangla Road, the heart of Patong nightlife. Street food is a smart move in this part of town. People love street food: it’s easy and cheap most of the time, and it’s cool to post on your Facebook. Bangla Street Food opens late, and it’s really casual. So it’s actually the perfect place before AND after the party. This is something really fantastic about Patong: you can party until 3 or even 4 am and still enjoy some seafood.

Street Food Patong

Actually, this street food is not really new. Before being demolished, this block was already a seafood street with some very popular restaurants like Number 10. Some of them are still here. But the concept is nicer as long as it doesn’t rain.

How does it work?

The way it works is also a little different. The central area is occupied by the restaurants, each sheltered by one of those colourful tents so popular in night markets. All around is the seating area where you can bring the food and the drinks you purchased. It’s that simple. In the previous version of this area, you had to sit at a restaurant and order everything from them. Now, each person can pick from the restaurant of their choice and eat together. It’s very Asian.

What to Eat?

Expect to find… what people want to eat. In some cases, it’s probably more authentically Thai than some popular Thai restaurants nearby. Lots of Pad Thai, ribs and rice, satays and grilled chicken. And more seafood than you can eat: fish and those huge prawns they grill so nicely and serve with that nice green seafood sauce.

To go with that, and because it is Bangla Road, you’ll find a lot of beers and cocktails. If you don’t drink alcohol, you can find plenty of fruit smoothies and shakes.
