The 38 Best Restaurants in Bangkok, Thailand | Eater

"Located on the outskirts of Bangkok’s Chinatown, On Lok Yun has become a famous backdrop for selfies with its wooden booths, cracking floor tiles, and stained walls. Visitors also snap plenty of pictures of the all-day old-style Western breakfast (think greasy plates of fried eggs, ham, and Chinese sausages). Another big draw is the restaurant’s signature fat-loaded, pillowy white bread, which can be ordered on the side with chunks of butter, condensed milk, and gaya, a sweet, egg-based spread." - Chawadee Nualkhair

9 Best Brunch Spots in Bangkok

"On Lok Yun is a truly local haunt, complete with a row of tired-looking booths pushed against one wall, shoddy-looking tables and chairs, and rusty open shelving. Everything is worse for wear, but that doesn't impact the food, which has remained unchanged over the years. Choose one or two eggs with bacon, ham, sausage, or Chinese sausage; a ham sandwich; or, if you're a vegetarian, eggs on their own. The menu also offers a toast section: bread with sugar and butter, French toast, or the signature kaya, or egg custard bread. Brunch here is truly an experience—this is, after all, a Bangkok institution. Try something new—you'll likely gain a new favorite." - Katie Lockhart

Finally got to try this popular old school style Thai coffee shop. There was a queue when I arrived but with a queue card system and two floors of dining areas I waited for less than half an hour. Moreover the menu was given out by the very friendly staff who was in charge of the queue. He offered me to jump queue over a family of 6 but I had to climb two flights of steps to the second floor. It was worth the effort as my breakfast was totally delicious. I had the steam bread and kaya (which was flavourful not overly sweet) and the scrambled eggs and ham, western and Chinese sausage and bacon. Yummy! The plus point here is tea is provided free and refillable. 💕 This place will be my breakfast place on my next visit to BKK.

Old style breakfast cafe serving eggs (half boiled, sunny side up, or scrambled) with choice of toppings (pork ham, cocktail sized sausages in halves, Chinese sausage, or bacon). Short <10mins queue when coming here at 11.30am on a Saturday. Seating and service was efficient. Menu is available in English. The granny waitress reminded me of Hong Kong style no nonsense, quick fire ordering style. Try to make up your mind ahead of time to avoid misunderstanding:) Ordered 2 breakfast sets of eggs + 3 to 4 toppings + steamed bread with custard, and 2 coffees. Chinese tea was served free on the side. Total bill of 238THB is reasonable for 2 pax breakfast with drinks. Didn't absorb much atmosphere as it was a in-out atmosphere. Not a place to linger. But great for a quick, tasty breakfast near Sam Yot MRT. No parking on the street unless you are scootering. After breakfast you can wander around the old town to soak in the sights.

It was really good and delicious! I tried to go twice — the first time I gave up because the queue was too long, but on the second day I waited about 30 minutes. The price is great and the breakfast was delicious. Now I understand why there’s always a line! I’m not sure if it’s a traditional Thai breakfast — it felt more American — but it was great. 8.5/10 👍 I have a Travel Agency in Cusco Machupicchu Peru @dopkertravel if you travel there I can help you!

01/November/2025 Had coffee & toast here, was good. Long queue cleared relatively fast & well organized. 2 levels of dining area. Wanted to takeaway the kaya (pandan sauce) but decided not to due to 3 days shelf life.

A place that needs no reviews and uses its great quality and yummy food to speak for itself. (Even Smiski approves). Remember to ask for special sauce for your egg + topping meals! Uncle, I love your breakfast 3000!

My girlfriend and I had a 9-hour layover in Bangkok so we decided to get food here and visit a temple. Such a fun experience and tasty food! They were very busy but we got seated almost immediately, they made great recommendations and were super friendly. Great coffee as well!

standard, consistent toasts that can't go wrong. kaya is thick, rich, and not too sweet. eggs were fresh and cooked just right. portions were reasonable for the price paid

We have been to the famouse On Lok Yun today. It was "Super". Organization of the Restaurant is efficient and easy. The staff is super friendly and so courteous. The food is simple but really good. Just go there and make a picture by ur own.
