The Riverside Bar & Restaurant

Sitting along Charoen Rat Road in the Chang Moi area of central Chiang Mai, this established riverside venue draws a steady mix of travellers and locals looking for a low-key place to eat and drink near the water. The combination of a full restaurant and bar under one roof gives it a flexibility that suits a range of visits, from a casual dinner to an evening drink while watching the river. The atmosphere leans relaxed and unhurried, making it a comfortable choice for those who want to step away from the busier city-centre streets. Mid-range pricing keeps it accessible, and the riverside setting adds a distinct quality that separates it from standard dining options in the area. Its position also makes it a convenient stop for travellers exploring the nearby old city. Good to know: opening hours are not publicly listed online, so it is worth confirming details through your accommodation or by checking locally before heading over. Late afternoon is generally a pleasant time to arrive, when the heat of the day begins to ease and the riverside setting is at its most enjoyable. As no website is currently available, planning ahead through your hotel or guesthouse is the most reliable approach.
