PHassociationTH Team: “The lightly sweet Hojicha Latte is very delicious. Fragrant, rich, and mellow. It’s a small shop so there are no tables to sit at, just takeaway.” (review for Mama Cafe Silom Tower branch) |
Pot Master Canton Claypot Rice
This popular restaurant is always packed, but there’s a perfectly good reason for that! This is the place to get Canton Claypot Rice, a classic Singaporean dish cooked inside an automatically rotating clay pot resulting in perfectly cooked rice and a crispy, charred crust. They offer a variety of meat and veggie toppings served in a food-court-style seating operation, giving the place a cosy, street-side feeling. Definitely worth a visit!

They cook fresh rice from grains in clay pots, creating a delightful experience with the rice spinning as it cooks. Inside, you’ll find Chinese sausage, liver sausage, and fragrant crispy rice at the bottom – just like I’ve had abroad!” (Review from Facebook) |

Lert Laow
For all the hot-pot lovers out there, Lert Laow is a must-visit during your day at One Bangkok! Famous for their succulent cuts of beef (including Wagyu and Kobe) and pork, everything on this menu is certain to satisfy. Their beef broth is rich and hearty, and their Kurobuta noodles and rice are generously seasoned and cooked to perfection. There might be a bit of a queue, but this place is worth it!
Pros | Cons | |

The meats are fresh and tender, served in large hot pots! 🍲” (Review from Facebook) |
Yolé Frozen Yogurt
This spot is a personal favourite, but I’m not the only one who loves it — Yolé has rapidly expanded in the last year, with two new locations opening just this past month! You start with their classic frozen yoghurt or vegan ice cream as your base (size S, M, or L), then you can add sauces, fruits, and toppings to your heart’s content.
You can also opt for their Ibiza parfait, which comes with sauce, fruits, and a crunchy topping — the perfect combination if you ask me. Plus, their yoghurt and ice cream are sugar-free, so now there is no excuse not to give them a try!
Pros | Cons | |
✅ Quick service ✅ All sugar-free ✅ Many toppings to choose |
❌ Priced higher ❌ Very limited seating |
Our recommended dish: Ibiza Parfait (and I’m partial to their pistachio sauce!)
Location: Fl. 3, Parade Building, One Bangkok.
Opening hours: Everyday, 10am to 10pm

Miki: “Their frozen yoghurt with cookie sauce is so tasty. Prices are a bit on the higher side, but it’s worth it because the yoghurt contains 0% sugar.” (Review for Yolé CentralWorld branch) |

Tempura Yamaya
Now opening their third branch in Bangkok alone, Tempura Yamaya draws inspiration from Hakata-style tempura, bringing this iconic Japanese dish to tabletops all across Bangkok. Celebrating their one-year anniversary in Thailand just a month ago in August, Tempura Yamaya holds the crown for anything tempura-related.
Of course, no tempura is complete without a dipping sauce, and this place does not disappoint! The tempura sauce here is made of Yamaya’s special ‘Umadashi‘ broth and benito, giving it an authentic and aromatic flavour. Plus, they offer free refills of mentaiko (spicy cod roe) and spicy pickled mustard greens, giving you the quintessential Japanese dining experience.
Pros | Cons | |
✅ Authentic tempura ✅ Good service ✅ Complimentary refills |
❌ Long wait times ❌ Bit on the pricier side |

Oishi Biztoro
If you have taken a stroll in any of Thailand’s malls before, then you probably have heard of Oishi. Not only have they been one of the best buffets around for decades now, but with Oishi Biztoro, they have extended their expertise to ramen and donburi (rice bowls) as well. What Oishi Biztoro is all about is a fast-casual dining experience – a quick and affordable Japanese menu that doesn’t break the bank, but doesn’t take any shortcuts either.

Hikari – Mille Press
While at One Bangkok, if you are not feeling super peckish and want to try something a little different, be sure to give Hikari a chance! Desserts are what they specialise in, and they change the game by pressing their puff pastries into a thin, circular shape and layering them with a variety of creamy fillings and fruits. Still a bit sceptical? There is only one way to find out — and let me tell you, you won’t be disappointed!
Pros | Cons | |

Of course, no food tour is truly complete without this classic Thai staple – Pad Thai. We all know that Pad Thai has maintained its status as street food king in Bangkok for decades now, but PadThai Kang brings this iconic dish to a whole new level.
With multiple chains around Bangkok, they have garnered fame and recognition from many major TV networks across Thailand for one reason and one reason only: they make amazing Pad Thai. With this new chain opening at One Bangkok, we all have yet another way to taste their greatness.
Pros | Cons | |

How about ending this list with another caffeine boost? By now I think you know that you are spoilt for choice when it comes to cafes at One Bangkok, but One To Two is worth a visit and their modern yet minimalistic feel will draw you right in.
Here you can craft your very own caffeinated drink, no matter your tastes. For all you coffee lovers, they have an extensive menu with the option to select different types of coffee beans as well. Not too fond of coffee? One To Two also has tea, cocoa, matcha and much, much more!
