Good Times Restaurant

4.6(348 reviews)

Good Times Restaurant is a casual eatery situated in the Ban Tai area of Mueang Kanchanaburi District, drawing a consistent mix of locals and travellers passing through the region. Its location makes it a convenient stop for those exploring Kanchanaburi's wider attractions, including the River Kwai bridge and the surrounding national parks. The atmosphere leans toward relaxed, unfussy dining — the kind of place where visitors can settle in without ceremony after a long day of sightseeing. While specific menu details are not documented, the restaurant has built a strong and sustained reputation over a notable number of reviews, suggesting reliable food quality and attentive service that keeps diners returning. The straightforward, accessible approach to dining appears to resonate with both budget-conscious travellers and those simply looking for a dependable meal in a comfortable setting. Good to know: Good Times Restaurant operates seven days a week with consistent hours from 10:00 to 22:00, making it a practical fallback if other dining options in the area are unavailable or closed. The later closing time is particularly useful for travellers arriving in Kanchanaburi in the evening or those wrapping up a full day at nearby sites before heading out for dinner.

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.
