Si Khao Night Market

Chaweng

A lively nightly food market away from the tourist strip, inland from the Central Festival roundabout toward Khao Hua Jook Pagoda. Thai and international dishes, lower prices than the walking streets, and plenty of seating. Reported daily 17:00-23:00.

Insider tips

  1. Look for the white-roofed stalls on the right past Khao Hua Jook Pagoda
  2. Good option when walking-street crowds feel too much

The story

Si Khao Night Market is a nightly food-focused market in inland Chaweng, reached by following the road west from the Central Festival roundabout past the Khao Hua Jook Pagoda; look for rows of white-roofed stalls on the right. A 2025-11 local guide describes it as open daily from about 17:00 to 23:00 and calls it a personal favourite away from the walking streets, with Thai dishes plus some international food (Italian, Korean), a few clothing and souvenir stalls, lower prices than the tourist markets and many tables and chairs between the aisles. Note on location: one nightlife guide describes a 'Si Khao Night Market' in the Bo Phut area near Fisherman's Village; the better-documented location is inland Chaweng, and the two descriptions may refer to the same market loosely or to different setups.
