Great vegan food, also an indoor/outdoor bar that is open late which is fun - Edit
It is really nice when you want a night club/bar type of feel when you go out - and you want to eat vegan - to have a place like this. Nice decor inside, has live music on Thursday nights, and many tables along the sidewalk for outdoor seating. They also have many of their own original cocktails, which adds to the 'nice night out' vibe.
Read moreI ordered too much because I wanted to taste everything, it was all great, and they gave me a take out container to take my leftovers with me, which I ended up eating the next night when I got to the Thai/Lao border late at night.
The vegan feta salad was amazing, the grilled mushroom sandwich really tasty and the vegan burger made from beets and other stuff was excellent, as where the fries that came with it.
I had a cherry flavored cocktail which was rich in taste and not too sugary sweet and also ordered a Schwepps Lemon-Lime that I mixed with it once I drank part of it straight.

Beautiful fresh food - Edit
I absolutely loved the variety of food on the menu. Everything we ordered was presented well and was delicious.

Dear Loving-travelling,

Trifecta - Edit
The cooler older sibling of the Goodsouls triplets, this spot is ideal for a cosy date night or chilled out evening out with a group. You have a choice between velour sofas and neon lighting in the swanky bar area, and the titular garden at the back, complete with pond and natural greenery. Open until midnight, you can enjoy good food, drinks and live music late into the evening.
Read moreThough not identical, the menu is very similar to the other Goodsouls locations, including classics like their famous mushroom burger, stone baked pizza menu and range of homemade cakes. I’ve been here A LOT and will let the (many, many) photos speak for themselves.
Highlights:
Mushroom burger
Power wrap
Green juice
Spinach and cheese pizza
Chocolate lover cake
Green forest mocktail
Pros: Best Western food in the area 🏆, Extensive menu 🍴, Live music 🎶
Cons: Mosquitoes in the garden 🦟

Dear Cha-Em,
Read moreThank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review of Downtown Vegan Garden. We genuinely appreciate you taking the time to share your impressions from your many visits.
Although Downtown Vegan Garden is the newest addition to the Goodsouls family, you've perfectly captured its identity as a more refined and stylish venue that still retains a cosy and welcoming atmosphere.
Whether you prefer relaxing indoors on our comfortable sofas or spending time in our garden surrounded by lush greenery and the pond, we are delighted that you've recommended us for intimate tête-à-tête evenings or casual gatherings with friends.
As you noticed, our menu shares many similarities with our other locations. This was intentional, as we aimed to include the most popular and beloved dishes from across our venues.
Please note that we stopped offering pizzas at the end of last year to make room for new menu items. Additionally, we've adapted our opening hours and now close at 11:00 pm.
Thanks again for visiting frequently and for capturing your experiences through your lovely photos. It’s always wonderful seeing our space through your eyes. Thank you as well for highlighting some of your favourites. We are so happy to see a mix of familiar favourites and indulgent picks on your list. It's always a joy to know which dishes and drinks leave a lasting impression.
We truly look forward to welcoming you back again soon and sharing another warm and memorable dining experience with you.
Warm regards,
Varee Kanokkhun & the Downtown Vegan Garden Team

Amazing food in the center of Chiang Mai! 😋 - Edit
What a beautiful restaurant in the center of Chiang Mai! There’s an area where you can sit whenever there’s live music playing and when you venture deeper there’s a garden-centric dining area to sit and enjoy meals. After a long day in Chiang Rai, I wanted nothing more than to sit and eat some delicious Khao Soi only for the two other places I had in mind to close half an hour earlier than what Google noted (note: the kitchen doesn’t close at whatever time Google says, expect places to close half an hour before with people having to leave said restaurant at the Google time). I decided on this place due to its proximity to my accommodation and its high rating and I was not disappointed! Such a beautiful place with chill vibes. A perfect place if you want to bring family or friends either for dinner or drinks and live music. The food was amazing (albeit a bit expensive, their Khao Soi was 120 THB which is on the higher end of the scale) and left me satisfied! I highly recommend stopping by! #Veganuary

Amazing food - Edit
We had avocado toast with cheese and tomato, a power wrap, and pasta with a rosé sauce. The first two dishes were perfect! Incredibly delicious and indulgent, every ingredient was added with love, and nothing was skimped on—it was just so tasty! We didn’t enjoy the pasta as much; there’s something different about the tomato sauce in Thailand compared to what we’re used to back home, and we didn’t really like it.
Read moreFor dessert, we had an amazing raw tiramisu cake!
The next day, we went back and ordered the power wrap again because it was so good the first time, along with a tofu bowl. We finished everything, and it was one of the best dinners we've had.
Friendly service, clean restrooms, and a charming place to sit indoors, like a little garden by the water. Highly recommended!
