Imm Aim Vegetarian and Bike Cafe

4.3(458 reviews)

Imm Aim Vegetarian and Bike Café pairs two Chiang Mai obsessions — plant-based Thai food and slow travel — in a leafy Santitham house where the khao soi is vegan, the fruit shakes are enormous, and bicycles hang from the walls. The menu reworks Thai classics with tofu and mushrooms alongside Western brunch comfort, and the garden seating makes it easy to stay through a second coffee. It's a fixture on every vegan guide to the city for a reason: consistent cooking, kind prices, and a neighbourhood pace tourists rarely find.

Tips for Visiting Restaurants & Food

Learn the Spice Scale

Say 'mai pet' for no spice, 'pet nit noi' for a little spice, or 'pet mak' if you want it Thai-hot. Most cooks will default to a toned-down version for foreigners unless you specify otherwise.

Follow the Crowds

The busiest street stalls are almost always the best — high turnover means fresh ingredients and a recipe that locals vouch for. An empty restaurant at dinner time is a red flag.

Ice Is Safe

Factory-made tube or cylinder ice (used in virtually all restaurants and stalls) is made from purified water and is safe to consume. You don't need to skip the iced Thai tea.
