Suan Phlu Market is a small neighbourhood wet market off Suan Phlu Road in Sathon, just south of Sathorn Road and a short ride from the Silom business district. It serves the people who live around Suan Phlu, so the stalls sell fresh vegetables, meat, seafood and cooked food alongside kitchenware and cheap clothes, spreading into narrow back lanes. Visitors come for an everyday Bangkok market without tourist crowds and for breakfast stalls such as rice soup with pork balls and liver, which can sell out by mid-morning. Vendors mostly speak Thai, but shopping by pointing works fine. Scooters share the lanes and the floor can be wet, so wear sensible shoes. Entry is free, and stall hours vary, so mornings are the best time to visit.
