Loved their music. Later I grabbed chicken sandwich and fruit plate. Tasty, healthy foods with lots of protein & fibre."

Rambuttri Road is a little alley road and much quieter, with an older crowd, than nearby Khao San Road. Sitting under a jasmine tree, the live music isn’t competing with other bars. You can have a good affordable meal from an EXTENSIVE menu. Pictured here is the Fried Sweet and Sour Tofu and Massaman Gai. We have been lucky to come two years in a row, and were so happy to see Noey again this year. It feels like a rerun of Cheers when someone remembers you, one year to the next and miraculously, remembers your go to drink order ;) Highly recommend!"
