Sam Yan — Student District & Late-Night Food

Updated 2026 · Totally Bangkok

Home to Chulalongkorn University, a 24-hour food court, and some of the cheapest good eating in Bangkok.

Character

Sam Yan is a student district — young, affordable, unpretentious; the Foodland supermarket and SamYan Mitrtown mall are open late.

24-hour eating

The SamYan Mitrtown food court operates 24 hours — this is not a tourist attraction, it's where Bangkok's night-shift workers, students, and insomniacs eat.

Getting there

MRT Sam Yan station; easy and central.

Why visit

Authentic cheap eating (40–80 THB), no tourist markup, genuine Bangkok energy at 2 AM; excellent for solo travellers who want local food late.
