4 Breakfast Spots in Silom: Classic Thai Home Dishes and Popular Coffee Shops

1. Lumpini Park Food Court

At Lumpini Park in Silom, there is a food stall village that opens as early as 4:30 AM, serving congee. The congee here is called "joke." Joke is made by slowly boiling finely crushed rice, resulting in a sweet and creamy texture.
The soft joke porridge goes down easily, even when you’re not feeling too hungry in the morning. Eating it for breakfast makes you feel warm all over and ready to take on the day. A walk in the park will also help wake you up. It’s a recommended breakfast spot in Silom.

2. Jenok

If you're spending the morning in Silom, you should visit Jenok, a popular spot for Thai-style ramen, or "kuy teav," in the area. Jenok is usually crowded with locals rather than tourists, so it gets busy during lunchtime. It's best to go early for breakfast.
There are so many types of noodles, soups, and toppings to choose from that it can be hard to decide! If it's your first time, try the standard and light pork bone soup noodles, called "Sen Mee Nam." For those confident in their ability to handle spicy food, "Sen Lek Tom Yum Nam" is highly recommended. The sour and spicy taste of Tom Yum soup is incredibly addictive.

3. Nam Tao Hu Jae A Lumpini Park Food Court

In Silom, soy milk, called "Nam Tao Hu," is also popular for breakfast. At Lumpini Park, there’s a Nam Tao Hu stall that operates early in the morning, so you can join the locals and enjoy it for breakfast. Nam Tao Hu, which is more of a drink than a food, can be easily enjoyed even by those who don’t have much of an appetite.
You can add sugar or toppings to customize your Nam Tao Hu to your liking. It comes in both hot and cold versions, so you can choose depending on your mood or health condition. There are many variations based on different combinations, so it's recommended to try it multiple times during your stay in Silom!

4. Tom N Toms

Silom, known for its great variety of dining options, has many cafes. If you want a coffee to accompany your breakfast, head to Tom N Toms! It’s a local favorite, affectionately called "Tom Tom Coffee."
At Tom N Toms, you can enjoy coffee, milk tea, herbal tea, smoothies, and more. They also offer breakfast-friendly items like sandwiches and honey toast. The best part about this cafe is that it’s open 24 hours! The atmosphere is similar to chains like Tully’s or Excelsior, so you can enter with ease.
With Wi-Fi available, Tom N Toms is a great spot to relax with coffee in the morning while browsing the internet. Since it’s open 24 hours, you can enjoy coffee anytime, even starting your day with a quick check of tourist spots online.
