— In short

Dinner tasting menus get most of the attention in Bangkok's MICHELIN Guide, but a number of the city's starred restaurants also open at midday, often with a shorter menu and a lower price. Lunch service is not universal among starred kitchens, and where it exists, the format varies widely from one restaurant to the next. This guide looks at who serves lunch, how the pricing compares to dinner, and what to expect from the experience.

Which MICHELIN-starred restaurants in Bangkok actually serve lunch?

Mia, one MICHELIN Star, serves lunch on Saturday and Sunday, 12:00pm to 2:00pm.

Blue by Alain Ducasse, one MICHELIN Star, serves lunch every day, 12:00pm to 1:30pm.

How much does a MICHELIN-starred lunch cost compared to dinner?

Where a discounted lunch format exists, the gap to dinner pricing can be significant. Where it doesn’t, lunch simply means the same menu at a different hour.

Côte by Mauro Colagreco offers the widest spread. The Escapade lunch is a 4-course menu at THB 3,800++, compared to the 8-course Carte Blanche at THB 8,000++ for dinner, or the 6-course Signature Experience at THB 6,800++, both of which are also available at lunch for guests who want the fuller format.

Anne-Sophie Pic at Le Normandie’s Business Lunch is a 3-course menu at THB 4,500++, roughly half the price of the 7-course Voyage dinner menu at THB 9,000++.

Blue by Alain Ducasse’s Business Lunch is a 3-course menu at THB 2,950++, against a dinner range of THB 4,500++ (Menu Découverte, 5 courses) to THB 8,500++ (Signature, 7 courses).

Mia’s lunch set is priced at THB 2,850++, compared to the dinner tasting menu, Taste of Mia, at THB 5,850++.

Sühring’s lunch menu, available on request, is priced at THB 5,800, close to the restaurant’s dinner tasting menus. Lunch buys a different hour, not a different budget.

Which MICHELIN-starred lunch offers the best value in Bangkok?

As of August 2026, Mia’s weekend lunch set is priced at THB 2,850++, arguably the best value for money of any MICHELIN-starred lunch currently served in Bangkok. The set draws on the same kitchen, the same chefs, and the same standard as the evening tasting menu, at a fraction of the commitment. Few starred lunches in the city offer this level of craft for the price. The set runs Saturday and Sunday, 12:00pm to 2:00pm, in the same Sukhumvit Soi 26 house and kitchen as dinner service.

How long does a MICHELIN-starred lunch take in Bangkok?

Lunch runs shorter than dinner across the board, with several restaurants building the format specifically around a tighter window.

Anne-Sophie Pic at Le Normandie’s Business Lunch is designed to be served in under 75 minutes, built for guests fitting a full French tasting menu into a working day.

Blue by Alain Ducasse’s Business Lunch runs within a 90-minute window, from noon to 1:30pm.

Côte by Mauro Colagreco’s Escapade lunch runs from noon to 2:00pm, with last orders at 1:30pm.

Mia’s lunch set is a shorter, lighter-paced menu than the evening tasting menu, and runs for less time than dinner, where a table of two can expect 2 to 2.5 hours and a table of three or four closer to 3 hours.

Can you have the full evening tasting menu at lunch in Bangkok?

Yes, at most of Bangkok’s starred restaurants that serve lunch, the full evening tasting menu is also available at midday, not just a lighter lunch-only option.

Côte by Mauro Colagreco and Blue by Alain Ducasse both make their full evening tasting menus available at lunch, alongside their dedicated, lower-priced lunch set.

Sühring takes this further: there is no separate lunch menu at all, only the dinner tasting menu served earlier in the day, on request.

Mia follows the same pattern. Alongside the weekend lunch set, Taste of Mia, the evening tasting menu, is also available at lunch on request, wine pairing included. For guests willing to give it the time, the full evening experience is just as achievable in the middle of the day.
