If you have been to Bangkok, you would have seen the Chao Phraya river that is often referred to as the main artery of the nation. The name literally translates to ‘River of Kings’ and plays a big part in the daily life of the people of Bangkok. Not only is the river used for transportation and cruises but the snaking river provides gorgeous views especially during sunset.

Hence, it is actually a really great place where you can have a romantic dinner with your significant other. Just imagine, what could be better than enjoying a delicious meal and looking at breathtaking views by the riverside with your partner! Here are a few places that you should try for a fantastic meal with stunning views of Chao Phraya river. PS: Bear in mind that most of them are rather fine eateries, do come armed with enough cash as the prices can be a little steep!

 

1. Steve Cafe & Cuisine

This little cafe is tucked away in a secluded corner, with no big signage which makes it a little harder to find. It used to be a little undiscovered gem but their relaxed atmosphere and yummy dishes make it so popular that it soon became famous, just by word of mouth. They serve really good Thai food that definitely makes the hunt worthwhile. They’re opening another branch at Rama VI Soi 41 in may 2018 so head there if you decide not to go to the riverside restaurant.

The best place to view this work of art from nature is at the Deck at Arun Residence, which has certainly made it popular, especially when coupled with their excellent Thai food.
