Khaosan Lane

About Us

Thai-Esan BBQ restaurant and bar in Postal Lane at Melbourne GPO — enter via the laneway behind H&M. The room channels Bangkok's Khaosan Road with string lights, metal stools, photo collages, and alfresco seating; live music from 8:30pm nightly and a midnight licence on Fridays (Broadsheet). The headline experience is moo kata (mu kratha): a dome-shaped tabletop grill with a broth moat for DIY cooking — pork, beef, seafood, vegetables, egg cracked on the grill, and glass noodles in the pooled broth (Broadsheet). Jim Joom and fragrant bone-broth or tom yum hot pots share the menu with grilled small plates, deep-fried duck beaks, and Thai street rice bowls from about $13 (Khao Kai Kra Pow, Khao Kai Makham, Khao Mun Kai Tod on the official site). Singha on tap, beer towers, and signature cocktails named for Bangkok districts (Khaosan, Thonglor, Chatuchak, Yaowarat, Silom and others). Google Maps lists business status OPERATIONAL (Jun 2026); OpenTable accepts bookings and reviewers note queues from opening.
