Bangkok Earns Top Honours in Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Awards 2026 for Food

Bangkok has secured prominent positions in the Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Awards Best of the Best 2026 for food destinations, reinforcing its global reputation for culinary diversity and quality. According to the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT), the city ranked fourth in Asia and ninth worldwide in the Best of the Best Destinations – Food (World) category. Within the regional rankings, Bangkok placed first in ASEAN and second in Asia in the Best of the Best Destinations – Food (Asia) category.

The results highlight Bangkok’s continued appeal to travellers seeking both celebrated dining venues and everyday food experiences, reflecting a food culture that is deeply rooted yet constantly evolving.

Recognition Driven by Traveller Voices

The Travellers’ Choice Best of the Best Awards represent Tripadvisor’s highest distinction, placing winners among the top one percent of listings worldwide. Rankings are based on the quality and volume of verified traveller reviews and ratings over a twelve-month period, offering a direct reflection of visitor experiences rather than expert juries.

Bangkok’s strong performance across multiple categories underscores the city’s consistent ability to meet and exceed traveller expectations, from street food stalls and local eateries to contemporary restaurants and international fine dining.

Culinary Identity with Global Reach

Ms Thapanee Kiatphaibool, Governor of the Tourism Authority of Thailand, commented: “Bangkok’s continued recognition reflects the city’s role as a leading culinary capital where tradition and creativity come together. These high rankings across multiple categories highlight the depth, diversity, and everyday accessibility of Bangkok’s food culture, from celebrated restaurants to local dining experiences. They reinforce Thailand’s global gastronomic standing and invite travellers to explore the city’s flavours with confidence and curiosity.”

Her remarks point to a defining characteristic of Bangkok’s food scene: its ability to offer world-class dining alongside informal, affordable experiences that remain central to daily life.

Sustained International Acclaim

The Tripadvisor accolades align with a broader pattern of international recognition. Bangkok remains a cornerstone of the MICHELIN Guide Thailand, with a growing portfolio of Michelin-starred restaurants representing fine dining, modern Thai cuisine and refined interpretations of local traditions. At the same time, the city continues to feature prominently in global food and travel rankings published by leading international media and industry platforms.

Together, these distinctions reinforce Bangkok’s standing as a globally recognised gastronomic capital and strengthen Thailand’s position as one of Asia’s most dynamic food destinations, appealing to travellers who value authenticity, creativity and culinary depth.
