On Lok Yun · Reviews
The kaya toast was the thing I’d go back for — soft bread, not too sweet jam, and the queue moved fast enough that it never felt like a punishment. Bonus points for the free refill tea, because apparently I can be bought with breakfast and caffeine.
Somchai K. (2026)Old, authentic gem with simple but good thai/hainanese breakfast dishes.
Chanin S. (2025)Looking for traditional Chinese breakfast, this is the place. Looking for a real breakfast, this is the place
Luisa Parker (2025)Love the old-school charm of this place, run by a few efficient uncles. The food isn't extraordinary, but the overall experience makes up for it. I didn't have to wait long, making my visit quite pleasant.
Molly Adams (2025)I’ve been here a couple of times, more for the nostalgic, old-school Chinatown vibes than the food itself. They offer standard breakfast items, nothing fancy but comforting. The iced coffee is a must-try, and they even sell fresh banana cakes and fruit jams at the front.
Prasoet (2024)This spot has been serving breakfast for over 80 years and is now run by the fourth generation. Weekends are super busy, so I opted for a weekday visit and got seated quickly. The food is decent, drinks are okay, and it's affordable. The owner is friendly and even showed me how to eat their Signature French Toast with soy and tomato sauce—an interesting combo, though not to my taste.
Joel Howard (2024)Simple yet satisfying breakfast for just 75 baht. The food is served quickly and cooked well. Mostly locals with a few tourists hanging around. If you're into light eats without sausages or meat, the small mix plate for 45 baht is a great option.
