Healthy Food in Pattaya
Healthy eating does not have to be boring. At Tess Vegan Cafe you get fresh, plant-based dishes without MSG or artificial additives — and a kitchen that truly delivers on flavor.
Fresh from the Market, Not from a Can
Every morning we source our ingredients from the local market. Fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices form the base of every dish. We never use canned goods, frozen items, or premade products. What lands on your plate is genuinely fresh — and you taste the difference immediately.

100% Vegan.
100% Love.
No MSG, No Hidden Additives
MSG is widespread in Thailand, but you will not find any here. We rely on the natural flavor of our ingredients and season with fresh herbs and spices. No flavor enhancers, no artificial coloring, no preservatives. Pure taste, the way food should be.
Nutrient-Rich & Plant-Based
Our dishes are rich in plant-based proteins, fiber, and vitamins. The Paneng Curry provides healthy fats through coconut milk. The Pad Thai delivers energy through complex carbohydrates. And our shakes are vitamin bombs made from fresh fruit. Healthy eating in Pattaya — from 60 THB for a shake, from 95 THB for a main course.
Visiting Tess Vegan Cafe — Practical Info
Everything you need before you come over: how to find us, what to expect, and a few local tips from Pattaya.
Where we are
We're on Na Kluea Soi 16, in the quiet northern part of Pattaya — a 7-minute drive from the Sanctuary of Truth and 12 minutes from Terminal 21. Look for the green TESS sign next to the plant-filled entrance.
Opening hours
Open Monday to Saturday, 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM. Closed Sundays. Last food order 8:30 PM. Breakfast and coffee are ready from 9 sharp — perfect after a sunrise walk along Wong Amat beach.
How to get here
Grab and Bolt rides from central Pattaya cost 80–120 THB. Songthaew (baht bus) along Sukhumvit drops you 5 minutes away. Free street parking is available right in front of the cafe — no garage needed.
Allergies & diets
Everything is 100% plant-based. Many dishes are naturally gluten-free, soy-free or nut-free — just ask. We adapt curries, stir-fries and desserts to your needs without losing flavor.
Families & kids
Kids are very welcome. We have smaller portions, mild Thai dishes, and homemade coconut cake that even picky eaters love. Highchair available, and the cafe is stroller-friendly.
Booking & ordering
Walk-ins are welcome. For groups of 4+ a reservation by phone or Facebook helps. Delivery via Grab Food across Pattaya. For evening visits, a quick message before you come helps us plan.
