Best Cheap Lunch in Chiang Mai

One of my favourite discoveries since coming to South East Asia is the vegan Buddhist restaurants. The food is cheap and delicious plus they do a variety of proteins rather than just some bland tofu at an omnivorous restaurant. Tien Sieng is fronted by a group of smiling women that will dish up from the buffet or you can order from the menu. They also have a whole supermarket out the back where you can buy fake meats, teas and other treats. The ginger biscuits are a delight. I braved the 30-minute walk in the midday sun to get this delicious food many times. Complimentary water is provided too, so you don’t have to worry about plastic bottles.

Pros: Everything is vegetarian, Super cheap

It’s a restaurant, not a shop

First up, this ain’t a shop. It has a shop attached but is foremostly an eatery in the front. The shop is great however.

Pros: Cheap, Lots of choice, Friendly staff

So damn tasty

I had the Khao Soy here and it blew my mind away. Everything about it was so tasty, it was a decent sized portion and it was only 40 THB. Theres a free water fountain too and the staff are pleasant.
They do buffet too. I wanted to try another noodle dish but the back menu wasn't mega clear but I didn't mind and had the Khao Soy twice

BEST Khao Soi in Town

Tien Sieng is a mom and pop shop that serves up THE best vegan Khao soi that you’re going to find in Chiang Mai.

I came here twice during my trip and both times, this bowl of noodles did not disappoint. Flavorful, fragrant, with the right bit of kick to it. The mock meats are a nice touch and the broth was phenomenal.

For just 40 Baht, you’re not going to find a better deal than here for this amazing bowl.

Pros: Full veg options, cafeteria style

Cheap and big portions

Almost every day during my stay in Chiang Mai, I ate here. Food is obviously quickly served, great portions for an insane price.

Really tasty

The food was really tasty here- I think all/most dishes are vegan but just ask for no egg to be sure

Amazing dumpling soup!

I had the dumpling soup and asked for noodles to be added. It’s more expensive than the standard buffet option but it’s really delicious.

Pros: Great location, All vegan, Big portions

Good, cheap food

We got two meals, one dumplings in soup that was delicious, the other was rice and 2 dishes from the cantines but unfortunately this one was cold so not as good. It was so cheap, 75 bath for two meals

Pros: Cheap, Tasty faux meat

Cons: Cold

Convenient & great value!

This is a simple veggie restaurant, sort of canteen style. Just a few dishes, including some mock meat dishes. All fresh and tasty and very budget! Will definitely go back for a simple, straightforward & inexpensive lunch.

Good vegan breakfast

Great breakfast place in the old city. Abundant options for a breakfast. They also sell other assorted snacks.

I had the Khao Soy and two sausages. The curry noodle is excellent besides coriander. Sausages are cold and taste more like soya chunks, would be nice to warm them up before serving. ( and they don’t go well with sweet Chili sauce imo)
Opens door at 6:30am is conviennent for early risers or for those who want to beat the heat. Highly recommended.

Cheap and Tasty

I give all these vegetarian "J" เจ shops 5-stars because they are so tasty and cheap. Depending on appetite...can have a wonderful, filling Thai veg meal for $1-$2 USD. Brown rice with 4 sides was B45 ($1.50). #Veganuary

Pros: Lots of vegan options, CHEAP, Tasty

Ideal place for budget vegan food!

It's nice vegetarian place with big variety vegan food: premade and cook after order, also available ready to eat options as vegan springrolls, burgers, nori and leaf chips. Staff was friendly. Also they had free cold water for costumers. We tried many dishes inside and for takeaway: all was good and so cheap. Highly recommend fried shiitake mushrooms steams and vegan char-siu mock meat.

In this place you can also find big freezer with vegan mock meat items for sale, but some kinds of mock meat contain egg - so be careful. Also they have mini-shop with soy chunks, spices, sauces and etc.

Pros: Very cheap, Good location in old center, Variety vegan frozen mock meat

Yummy Khao Soi

I’ve never had Khao Soi and was looking for a place that had a vegan version of it. No idea how the meaty version tastes, but this was lovely!
I loved the crunchy fried noodles on top. The mock meat tasted scarily realistic and could probably fool most people into thinking it’s actual meat (had the same kind in another vegan place too though, otherwise I would have been worried).

Wasn’t a fan of the mock meat balls in it though, it was mainly a consistency thing for me.

They also have a little shop where they sell mock meats from a fridge and have veggie staples like tvp, mushroom stock, and vegetarian curry/chili pastes for sale.

Prices were also great, the khao soi was 35 Baht

Great food for a cheap price

We went here twice to have a cheap breakfast and loved it. Of course, the location is not as nice as the more expensive restaurants, but the toilet is clean and the food is tasty. I would simply not recommend the plastic bottled water you can buy here. It tasted pretty awful. Other than that we highly recommend this place if you rather spend the money on a day trip than an expensive meal. You will leave stuffed and satisfied for sure. The staff is also super nice and friendly.

Pros: Tasty and cheap food, super friendly staff

Cons: Water didn't taste good
