About Bangkok Gang

Kingsville locals treat Bangkok Gang as their inner-west staple for punchy, uncompromised Thai cooking. Tucked into Somerville Road, the compact dining room runs on fast pacing and attentive care, with the kitchen fielding dedicated coeliac consultations even through heavy rushes. Regulars lean on the rich massaman beef brisket, blistered moo krob prik khing, and saucy pad thai folded with tamarind and lime. Finish with house coconut ice cream scooped directly into a natural coconut shell bowl.

  • Coeliac-aware kitchen: The kitchen carefully consults on dietary restrictions and maintains safe food preparation protocols during busy services.
  • Intimate dining room: A tight, intimate layout with just a handful of tables makes advance booking recommended for dining in.
  • Coconut shell desserts: House-churned coconut ice cream arrives served in natural coconut shell bowls alongside traditional banana sticky rice.

    Traditional Thai desserts like coconut ice cream are served in distinctive natural coconut shells alongside sticky rice sweets.
