Baan Pomphet Riverside Restaurant
บ้านป้อมเพชร
A riverside restaurant at a boutique hotel beside Pom Phet Fort on the Chao Phraya River, listed in the Michelin Guide and known for grilled river prawns and a riverfront terrace.
Located in the southeast corner of the Old City beside Pom Phet Fort, inside a boutique hotel of the same name with about 160 seats. Floor-to-ceiling windows look out over wooden decks and the Chao Phraya River. The chef uses river seafood and local farm ingredients. The Michelin Guide recommends the grilled giant river prawns and the red curry snails, and reviewers often praise the tamarind prawns, fish cakes and cashew chicken. The indoor dining room is air-conditioned, but the riverside terrace is the most sought-after spot, so book dinner in advance. Prices are mid-range, with prawns priced by weight. Cards are accepted, and there is parking.
