The Night Bazaar Restaurants
Where and What to Eat in The Night Bazaar
For mid-spree snacking there are plenty of restaurants and bars in the vicinity where you can take a load off and review your purchases. Just off the main street you will find a delightful selection of Thai seafood and noodle restaurants, while Loi Khro Road just east of Chang Khlan Road (towards the river) has a number of international restaurants and pubs. If you need your fix of western comfort you'll find a Subway, a McDonald's and a Starbucks on the main strip. Also in the area are numerous other useful services such as travel agents, internet cafés, mobile phone shops and camera shops.
For more upscale dining Chiang Mai’s most modern hotel the D2 has an equally trendy restaurant as does Le Meridian. Generally when it comes to eating in Chiang Mai this is the best place to be with food, prices and dining environments going across the whole spectrum, it is something of a global food fare.
Anusarn Food Court
Situated behind the Night Market, we have the Anusarn Food Court offering a range of fare which is for the most part, freshly made to order. Expect a high concentration of fresh seafood eateries, with fish on ice or tanks on display outside. Although the food court is a little more expensive than your typical Thai street food, a meal here is still relatively inexpensive.
Food Courts
Each of the markets that comprise the Night Bazaar has a food court where cheap food is obtained on a prepaid token basis. (remove you buy the token firsts and then trade them with the vendor in question that has the food you want, can be enjoyed). This isn’t necessarily the most pleasant way to eat and you do forgo table service but on the plus side it’s convenient for a mid-shopping snack and offers a good choice and really tasty food.

Featuring an old-school Italian interior, complete with checkered tablecloths and candlelit lighting, the menu features a great selection of pastas, pizzas and meat-based dishes.
