breakfast - early

[willfreeman]

anyone recommend any places for breakfast that are open early - say 6am onwards?

[uptheos]

I'm guessing that places only open that early if they are showing an American final of some kind, like the Superbowl.

If anyone knows of a place I'm sure they'll be along shortly.........which part of town?

ill be staying santitham, but anywhere around there, inside the moat or nimihamin area is fine. The only place i know that is open early is the 24 hr thai restaurant on the moat but they dont have the full menu available in the morning, or didnt the few times i went there last year

Earliest places i know of... McDs, BK, Rimping at Maya, Salom Joi, Hotel buffets example, CM gate hotel, or Raming lodge, Cafe Siam, ...or local style ...moo ping and kau niaw or noodles at any fresh market at dawn. .. I think the Blue Diamond opens kind of early.

[uptheos]

Yes there's loads of little Thai stalls that serve breakfasts, jok (a rice with pork porridge) is particularly liked here and there's always noodles.

was hoping to get an american breakfast somewhere, i recall mention of a breakfast place at maya open early?

At Rimping, MAYA, they offer a set brkfst for 59 baht, open at 6 am. It's ok with white toast, hot-dog, spam, 2 egss, coffee. Want more coffee? that will be another 40 baht.

The is a restaurant attached to the Empire Residence on Nimmen which does a all you can eat breakfast buffet for about 120 baht. If you can find the Lotus Tesco on Nimmen than right on top of and behind that is the Empire Residence.

I think it starts at 6 AM but am not sure.

For that price you are not going to get high quality meats, but there is some ham, I think.

I always have a Egg Mcmuffin that early in the morning and it is fine. A lot of people I know think that they are the only good thing that McDonald's makes, but being American, I enjoy a Big Mac every once a blue moon too.

I'm an early riser, I have found it difficult to find an early morning Western breakfast place. The best place I have found is Cafe de Siam at the SE corner of Loi Kroh and Khampangdin Rd. That is between the Chiang Mai Entertainment Complex (CMEC) and the Duangtawan Hotel. They open at 06:30. To be honest, it's not the best breakfast around, but it opens hours earlier than most other places.

<removed link to Bkk Post as per forum rules> (this article says open at 06:00, but I think 06:30)

630 for Bake and Bite in Wat Gate, isn't it?

that would be Jok Somphet. i go there perhaps 4 or 5 times per month at odd hours and the full menu is available. once in a while if they run out of something at like 3:30-4:00 a.m. , it may not be until perhaps 6:00 when the next shift comes that they will bake more chicken, fish, etc. but it's not often.

24 hours each day, 7 days each week.

Most likely Mc Donald's.Many restaurants all over Thailand don't open early for breakfast

Cafe de Siam is excellent for the morning - if I am in that area its my go to place

MAYA is not bad at all iif you are near Nimman/ Canal Rd - order bacon instead of Thai hot dog

i went there about three times between 630-730 trying to get kaw pad gai and they said didnt have and indicated that only about half the menu was available, i was quite surprised the ran out of fried rice and couldnt make anymore. I like to hit the gym about 8am mon-wed-fri, so like to eat around 630. Other days i can wait till 9 when other venues open.

Some of the best muesli/granola in town IMO. Good toast and OK croissants. Decent coffee.
