The eating options in Sukhothai are not as good as they should be, but you certainly won't starve -- as the night market is reasonable and there is plenty of street food to choose from.

Chopper Bar Beer - Drink don't eat

Just up from TR Guesthouse, this large bar has nightly live music and is a good choice for an afternoon or evening drink, though the food is not great. Very friendly staff.

Coffee House and Restaurant - Excellent food
29 Ratchuthid Rd - Sukhothai

It doesn't matter how much you try and hide it, if you're eating n someone's driveway, it feels like it. Soft lighting and relaxing tunes nevertheless do their best here, and the food is excellent, with huge portions and great staff. Worth a look, but a bit pricey compared to other offerings in Sukhothai.

Near the River Hotel, this is standard Thai-food-for-westerners, though they do also have a good range of western dishes.
Type of Food: International / Thai /

Small bar by bridge - Good chicken wings
By the bridge - Sukhothai

This hole-in-the-wall is okay for an afternoon drink or a snack -- their chicken wings are very good -- but for a meal it's a bit heavy on traffic noise. Friendly staff. The place does have a name, but we forgot to write it down.
