Santitham food guide
Santitham is known as a residential grid with a coffee roaster, not a night bazaar. It fits a pour-over at 80 to 150 THB, then khao soi in Chang Phueak.

Akha Ama Living Factory roasts on Hussadhisewee Soi 3. The Old City cup is Akha Ama Phrasingh on Ratchadamnoen, opposite Wat Phra Singh. A Chiang Mai pour-over is often 80 to 150 THB.
The curry-noodle rooms are south of here. Mae Sai on Ratchaphruek is 55 to 90 THB, Monday to Saturday 08:00 to 16:00. Use Chang Phueak food for that lunch.
What to order
- Coffee at Living Factory if you are already in Santitham.
- Khao soi elsewhere. Do not hunt the classic bowl on a residential soi.
- Sunday street is Ratchadamnoen, inside the moat, not this neighbourhood.
