About W Market

This place is not just another typical night market or beer garden with various restaurants. It is a unique destination that offers a wide array of international cuisines from over 50 restaurants. These include Thai, Japanese, Italian, and Mexican, among others. The stylish interior and decoration of the shops and the food presentation are a testament to their uniqueness and 'out of the ordinary' characters. Conveniently located near BTS Pha Khanong (Exit 3), it is a great place to hang out.

The atmosphere is cool and inviting, making it an ideal place to enjoy food and drinks with friends. The market offers a wide variety of booths for food and drink selection, ensuring that there is something for everyone. Whether you fancy Jamaican, Greek, or Thai cuisine, you are sure to find it here. It is an experience that you have to try for yourself.

The place is also perfect for group outings, offering a variety of meals that cater to different tastes. From Japanese to Jamaican food, with American, Thai, and Italian options thrown in as well, everyone at the table will find something they like. A drinks server will come to your table to take your order, and for food, you can go up to the different counters to order. Some places take payment when ordering, while others at the table when they serve the food. However, it is worth noting that the place offers some cover from light rain, but in case of heavy rain, it might be advisable to seek shelter elsewhere.

While some might argue that it is not much of a market, it is more of a place to eat, drink, and chill. The food choices are vast, although they are mostly not local. However, it is important to embrace it for what it is. W Market is essentially an outdoor food court catering to those that live nearby. It is fancier with more international options than a normal purely Thai place but more casual and far cheaper than say The Commons in Thonglor, which is the indoor more upscale version.

The food options are good, with some stalls being better than others, which is always the case. The drink options are diverse, including even craft beer. So, if you want to experience Bangkok not as a tourist, not as a local, but as how many expats live, this is the place to be.

The variety of food in one location is impressive. You could eat there every night and probably go a year before repeating a meal. The food and drink runners are all really fast and friendly, contributing to the great atmosphere. However, it is worth noting that some people might find it more of an expensive food court than a market, with beers being overpriced. The clientele is a mix of ageing expats with young Thai girls and bewildered tourists and travellers looking for a market. Despite this, the place offers a unique dining experience that is worth trying.
