Thepprasit Night Market — locals market with actual local prices

Thepprasit Night Market operates daily but really comes alive during weekend evenings when the full local community gathers. Opens 4 PM daily for basic vendors, but the authentic atmosphere and complete food selection peaks Friday through Sunday nights. Street food generally ranges 40-150 THB depending on the dish.

Take songthaew down Thepprasit Road and ask for "talad yen" (night market). The seafood grilling area is in the back - pick your own fish and they'll grill it. During weekdays, you'll find fewer vendors but still get genuine local prices. Weekend evenings transform it into the full local experience with families doing their weekly shopping.

Bring small bills, most vendors can't break 1000 THB notes. While the weekend atmosphere is unbeatable, weekday visits still offer authentic local pricing without tourist markup.
