A garden spot for good food

Tucked behind Maenam Morning Market, Bao Bao is a neighbourhood eatery with a shaded garden terrace, a full craft bar, and a kitchen that cares about what goes on the plate.

We steam our bao fresh all day and source local produce wherever we can. The menu spans handmade buns, Asian tapas, big sharing plates and proper desserts — something for everyone around the table.

Frequently Asked Questions

When are you open?

Tuesday to Sunday, 12:30–22:00. We're closed on Mondays, and the kitchen closes at 21:30 — so come a little earlier if you'd like to eat.

Walk-ins are always welcome. For a guaranteed table — or for larger groups and private events — call or WhatsApp us on 098 831 7657.

Do you have vegan and vegetarian dishes?

Plenty. Vegan dishes are marked with a green VEGAN label throughout the menu, and our Veggie Bento is entirely plant-based.

Can you cater for gluten-free or allergies?

Yes — several dishes can be prepared gluten-free, and we're happy to work around allergies. Do note our bao buns are made with wheat flour, so just tell your server and they'll point you to the right dishes.
