Reviews from Google
Just had some gorgeous dishes here at Cheatday Cafe after checking into our hotel. The lady who was on the till today serving us was very friendly. They have an English menu to flick through, and whilst there isn't 'vegetarian' written down on the meals, they were very accommodating to take away the meat of the dish and serve with an option of a thai omelette which was very tasty. Very reasonable pricing for great quality food! My partner and I got two dishes each and bottled water which was just under 400baht on total. Great portion sizes. Would (and will) be coming back here again!
Food and drinks taste great. Reasonably priced. Ambiance is chill. No exclusive parking. Just park along the side of the road.
Delicious food. However, hard to find a parking space.

Tips for Visiting Restaurants & Food
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.
Use Grab for Delivery
The Grab app works for food delivery across Thailand, letting you order from street stalls and restaurants alike. It's invaluable on rainy days or when you want to eat in your hotel.
