Pa Lek Boat Noodle

The best boat noodles in Thailand, hands down! The flavors are authentic and absolutely worth the hype. Be prepared for a heavy crowd and a bit of a wait, but trust me, it’s worth every minute. The rich, flavorful broth and perfectly cooked noodles will have you coming back for more. A must-visit spot for any food lover!

This place was delicious and the most affordable meal we have had in Thailand to date! 3 bowls filled me up at $20B each, but I saw some men and women with 7-8 bowls each. I’m like that the smaller portions allowed you to try the different noodles since we are new to this food. Plus figure out what you like and then get more:) They don’t speak any English, but just start by grabbing a number and then go with the flow. Menu has pictures and English.

Very delicious Minimum 4-5 bowls each person. So you need to order one time because many Q are waiting to eat.

This is like a Thai ‘sushi train,’ but for noodles. Each bowl of noodles is bite-sized. I had a fun and enjoyable lunch with my family here. With just one or two mouthfuls, the entire bowl is finished. Even my kids, who don’t usually eat much, ended up eating 2–4 bowls each. The local noodle bowl soup is tasty, with six choices of soup and dried noodles, and two types of meat—beef or pork. Try them all! Won’t break your bank. Each bowl is very affordable at just 20 THB at the time of writing.

There's a very long queue, so make sure to grab a queue number first. However, the waiting time wasn’t too bad when I went. The restaurant is really packed, but the food is standard and priced very reasonably.

Our tour guide took us here and it was great! The portions are very small and very cheap(20 baht per portion), so you might need to order 2-3 or more. The service was very fast and the boat noodles were good, the crushed peanuts were a nice add on!

Typical Thai noodle, I felt overrated but ok to try. Small portion, drinks are not available without ice, too many people, order takes long time, long long queues, difficult to find parking.

These boat noodles are just so tasty, we ate the two types of beef noodles which were both amazing. Believe the hype and make sure you don't miss out on this if you're in the area and like to sample local food.
