Exceptional Cheese and Cold Cuts with a Great Ambience
El Mercado in Khlong Toei, Bangkok, is highly praised for its exceptional selection of cheese and cold cuts, often recommended by the chef. The restaurant offers a fantastic vibe with both outdoor and international settings, making it ideal for dating, drinking, or dining with friends. While the food receives high marks, the outdoor seating can be hot and humid, and some seafood dishes are hit-or-miss. The service, particularly from staff like K Net, is friendly and helpful. Despite being on the pricier side, the good food, generous portions, and amazing ambience make it a highly recommended spot.

El Mercado · Reviews
I loved the chilled-out vibe here and their cheese selection is honestly next level—plus the staff were super friendly and quick to fix a little mix-up with my dish without any fuss.
Surin S. (2026)Five stars all around! They have the best selection of cheese and cold cuts in town. Just one downside: the outdoor area can get pretty hot and humid. Make sure to save some room for their delicious desserts!
Klara P. (2026)The grilled cos salad is a must-try, definitely 10/10. Other dishes like seafood and earth food are decent, around 8/10. The mussels with white wine can be hit or miss. Their cheese platter and cold cuts paired with wine are essential orders. Great service from K Net, who was very friendly and helpful. The place is a bit pricey and the outdoor seating is basically a smoking area with mosquitoes.
Thomas R. (2025)El Mercado is one of my favorite spots for cheese and cold cuts. You can either pick what you like or trust the chef's recommendations. The food is fantastic, and the ambiance is great with both outdoor and international vibes. Perfect for a date night or hanging out with friends.
Krit (2024)Great restaurant, grocery store, winery, charcuterie, fromagerie, bakery, grocery store.
