Fun Vegan-Friendly Things to Do in Bangkok:

 Bangkok Vegan Food Tour – Bangkok Best of Thai Vegan Public Tour – Get Your Guide
If you’re looking to explore some vegan delights, there’s this great tour I stumbled upon called – Bangkok Best of Thai Vegan. It’s a journey through the city’s vegan food scene. You’ll get to try a variety of Thai vegan dishes that are honestly out of this world, while walking through some of the coolest neighbourhoods, so it’s like a little adventure wrapped up with some delicious food.

Vegan/Vegetarian Thai Cooking Class – May Kaidee Cooking Class Tour – Viator
So for anyone wanting to feel the culture and learn some Thai cooking, I’ve got just the thing. It’s the May Kaidee Cooking Class. You learn how to create vegan versions of some classic Thai dishes, and the best bit – it’s all veggie. Soups, curries, and stir-fries, all bursting with flavour – plus, you get to eat what you make, so it’s a win-win! We even got to dress up in traditional Thai clothes and take photos when we went.

Floating and Railway Market Tour Bangkok Damnoen Saduak Market and Maeklong Railway Market Tour – Get Your Guide
Ever heard of a market on railway tracks? Yeah, it’s a thing in Bangkok! This tour is to the Damnoen Saduak and Maeklong Railway Markets. It’s like a peek into the everyday life of the locals. The railway market is such a unique experience – you’ve got trains passing through while sellers swiftly move their goods away from the tracks. And Damnoen Saduak is this vibrant floating market where you can glide through canals, checking out the stalls. Sadly, not all the food is vegan but there are some tasty treats to be found. 

What is Mango Sticky Rice?

Traditionally, this sweet dish is vegan-friendly, made with glutinous rice, ripe mangoes, and a sweet coconut milk sauce. It’s a simple dish, but like all simple things, perfection is in the details – and the freshness of the ingredients.

It’s not hard to find to find a tasty Mango Sticky Rice in Bangkok, that’s for sure! But sometimes it’s nice to support vegan and vegan-friendly businesses. So, here’s my personal roundup of the best places to enjoy vegan Mango Sticky Rice in Bangkok this year.

The 3 Best Spots for Vegan Mango Sticky Rice in Bangkok in 2024:

1. May Veggie Home

Vegan Restaurant in Bangkok

Location: Find May Veggie Home on Google Maps

May Veggie Home is a great spot for vegan food in Bangkok! So many of the dishes on their menu are favourites of mine. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel at ease as soon as you walk in. The staff greet you with friendly smiles and serve you some of the best vegan Thai food you’re ever going to taste.

Their Mango Sticky Rice is a favourite of mine. The rice, both black and white, is always the perfect texture and the mango is sweet and ripe. It’s a popular place, so popping in early is a good idea if you want to avoid the wait.


2. Mango Vegetarian & Vegan

I love this spot, it’s a cosy little restaurant that doubles as an art gallery. It’s just around the corner from Khao San Raod and while it doesn’t look like much from the outside, it’s well worth visiting. 

The Mango Sticky Rice both looks and tastes beautiful! The texture of the rice is spot-on with a slight crunch. The coconut sauce is rich, sweet and creamy, so the lightly salted rice makes a perfect contrast with the sweetness.

It’s a bit pricier than some of the other food options nearby, but for the quality and relaxed vibe, it’s well worth it.


3. Jeng Noodle Thai Food & Vegetarian

Veggie Option Restaurant

Location: Find Jeng Noodle Thai Food & Vegetarian on Google Maps

A small, unassuming place that you might walk past if you weren’t looking for it. Jeng’s is the kind of spot that reminds you that sometimes the best food isn’t in the fanciest places.

Now, this place does serve meat and I usually sway towards veggie or vegan restaurants if I can, but this place does vegan food really well! And if you’re going to try something here the mango sticky rice is not only the safest bet, but it’s also the most delicious! 

Their Mango Sticky Rice is one of the best I’ve had in Thailand – and I don’t say that lightly. The mango is the perfect ripeness, the rice is just sticky enough, and the coconut milk is heavenly. It’s all about the balance of flavours here, and Jeng has got it nailed!
