INCREDIBLE vegetarian and vegan food

We loved Cha Da! They had the best spring rolls we've ever eaten! The menu is vegetarian, with lots of vegan options. I could eat here every day!

Excellent Vegetarian Food (No Onion or Garlic restriction)

We had a lot of great vegetarian food in Chiang Mai, but Cha-Da emerged as our favorite. Everything we ate here was fantastic and made-to-order. We do not eat onions or garlic and they had no problem accommodating us. The menu is not very big, but what they do, they do well. Don't miss this place if you are in Chiang Mai!

Hidden gem

Hidden gem. I've had one of the best Tom Ka ever. Excellent flavour, excellent service and excellent price. I also liked the cutlery and the decoration. Definitely recommended.

Tasty overall but was given non-vegan food

I went here twice, and my first time was a great experience- the potato salad included fruit, and the fruit smoothie (I requested mango/banana) was delicious. The portions were big and beautifully decorated.

However, despite signs on the menu that say “100% Vegan!” that is NOT the case. I ordered the pumpkin vegetables because it said 100% vegan right beside it, but once I started eating I realized it contained big pieces of egg I’d thought were tofu. I asked and they confirmed it was egg. They remade the dish but the menu is very misleading. Make sure to ask if there is egg in what you’re ordering.

It was VERY busy the second time I went as well - on a Monday night around 6:15pm, there was a lineup and many people left because it was full. They didn’t have many staff so we waited patiently til they could get to us. You may be asked to share a table with someone else if you come alone, it was a nice way to meet another traveller. Very kind people working there, just wish I hadn’t eaten a bunch of egg :(

Pros: Generous Portions, Friendly Staff, Most main dishes under 100 baht

Cons: Food labelled vegan is not actually , Busy times mean slow service, Use plastic straws

Delicious!

Really delicious vegetarian food. It gets very busy on Sundays so be patient because there aren’t a lot of people working there. But the food is definitely worth the wait.

Love it

This has been a place we’ve returned to a few times whilst we’ve been here. The food is always good, good value, big portions and good, quick service. Their drinks are good value too- especially the teas which come in huge mugs. Everything is vegan or can be made vegan. They ask whether you can eat onions too (checking if Jain) which is good #Veganuary

高手在民間,一間不起眼的素食館。

如果喜愛食辣,推介冬陰公湯一流!

Pros: 泰/西cross-over菜式。, 飯/河粉各有特式。, 冬陰公湯夠辣,飲完全身濕透。

Cons: 價錢合理。, 坐位比較少。, 非常好味。

Cheap and delicious!

Had the best green curry of my trip here. It was filled with such a good mix of veg and tofu and was a great spice level. My sister got the Penang curry which was equally flavourful.
Was a really cheap dinner, 230 baht for both of us plus drinks and rice.
Would definitely recommend!

Pros: Great value

Simple, good Thai food

No frills place with a straightforward menu. Both the green and red curries were superb, and I love the option of riceberry rice. They also use riceberry to make their fried rice, which was great and loaded with seeds, nuts, tofu and veg. Prices good.

Small and clean restaurant with pretty much all vegan options.

We stumbled upon it. Delicious food, lots of food in a clean restaurant. Host was very nice as wel. Had fried rice (bf with egg, me without egg), mixed vegetables and sweet and sour veggies. Also a side of springrolls, which where delicious but it was not necessary because it was already a lot of food. The mango smoothie was also very delicious!

Pros: Pretty much all vegan options, Lots of food, Very nice host

Port in a storm

Came across this restaurant by chance as rain started to bucket down. Covid has decimated businesses in the old city, including vegetarian restaurants, so it was a lucky find.

Standard Thai dishes adapted for westerners. I had a good massaman curry with a watermelon smoothie.

Pros: Warm welcome, Cheap, Bright, simple decor

Nice Veg restaurant in good location

Its is a new, clean, nicely decorated restaurant inside the old city in a good location.

The owner is very friendly and will adjust the food to your preferences.

The menu is almost all Thai food. All the standard Thai offerings are available.
There are also a variety of smoothie and different tea drinks available.

The food tastes good. It could have been spicier for me. I will make sure it is on my next visit.
The prices are quite reasonable for food made to order.

Pros: Clean, modern good location, Food made to order by friendly cook, Reasonable prices

Cons: No Tempeh available

Thai Vegetarian (but mostly vegan)

Nice, big, clean & bright Thai Veg restaurant which is extremely vegan friendly. Everything can be prepared vegan and many are vegan already.

Food is delicious and freshly cooked after ordering. The owner and her mom are so lovely and kind. Definitely a place to add to the Chiang Mai veg dining list with excellent food, low prices and convenient location in The Old City.

Does not serve alcohol but certainly can BYO and drink with your meal. There is a Mom & Pop just across the street.
