Why go, and how to do it well
Located on Jomtiensaineung Road near Jomtien Beach, this open-air evening food strip draws a mix of tourists and locals looking for a casual, relaxed dinner in a beachside setting. Rather than a traditional Thai street food market, the atmosphere here has evolved over time — visitors today will find a blend of vendors, including grilled chicken and som tam stalls alongside Western-style options such as crepes, ribs, and fried snacks, making it a reasonable choice for mixed groups or families with children.
The setting retains a nostalgic, unhurried feel that regulars appreciate, and the beachfront road location adds to the appeal as an evening outing. The vendor lineup tends to be smaller than older photos might suggest, so it is worth exploring the full stretch to find what is available on any given night. Those specifically seeking traditional Thai street food should come with adjusted expectations, while those after a relaxed open-air dinner with variety are likely to find something to enjoy.

Reviews from Google
Not really street food here but the food carried by the sellers.. very nostalgic.. still tastes as good as I can remember.. well the dried squids getting (at least half size) smaller. Been here when we were kids. This might be old time things but never outdated!
Not Thai street food. More Western and Russian. Perfect for kids with nuggets, chips and racks of ribs and steak. Phones were on charge back at hotel so alas no photos. We had a delicious crepe filled dessert which was absolutely delicious, Im hoping to find it again. It was like eating a soft meringue cloud ☁️
We came with expectation of a street food but no more street food here, only just local stall of grilled chicken or somtam but you have to explore a bit. There was not as many food as in the old photo of this place. You could grab your camping chairs and table and have small dinner on the beach.

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.
