Vegan Pad Thai — A Classic Reimagined
Pad Thai is Thailand's national dish — and we serve it in a flawless vegan version. Springy rice noodles, fresh vegetables, and roasted peanuts for just 95 THB.
The Art of Pad Thai
Great Pad Thai lives and dies by the balance of sweet, sour, salty, and spicy. Our chef has mastered this art over years and fine-tuned the sauce for plant-based ingredients. Instead of fish sauce, we use a fermented soy sauce that remarkably mirrors the original. The result is a Pad Thai that impresses even locals.

Fresh Ingredients, Real Flavor
We use thin rice noodles, wok-tossed at high heat to perfect texture. Combined with crispy tofu, fresh chives, bean sprouts, and lime wedges. Roasted peanuts provide the finishing crunch. Each portion is individually wok-fried — exactly as tradition demands.
95 THB for Pure Happiness
For just 95 THB (roughly €2.45 / $2.70), you get a generous portion of authentic Pad Thai. It is not just a bargain — it is an experience. Perfect as a quick lunch or part of a Thai feast with friends. Pair it with Spring Rolls and a refreshing shake for the full journey.
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.
