While on a Harley tour from Chiang Rai to Phuket we stayed in Mae Sariang. While we were wandering along a soi along the river we came across this little cafe/ bar. The owners Stuart and Thidsana were extremely welcoming. They have a pool table and snacks. Great atmosphere. I would highly recommend Sawadee Cafe and bar to anyone looking for a cold beer and a game of pool.

Stuart and Mae are the absolute best.
My friend Kailey and I stopped here on our journey on the Mae Hong Son loop. It was Christmas night, so we came in for just one drink, but it turned into a few.😌
Stuart and Mae treated us like family. They have worked really hard to create such a welcoming environment for locals, expats, and travelers alike. We wish them all the best success and can’t wait to meet again one day.

We were strolling in Mae Sariang and found this cosy bar on the riverside. The owners are super friendly, the crowd isn't the annoying tourist type but an eclectic and vibrant bunch. Thanks Mae and Stuart for this unforgettable Christmas night.

Undoubtedly, the best bar in Mae Sariang. The hospitality shown by Stuart was outstanding. My one n only complaint was that they are only open at 5pm; should be earlier.

Fantastic atmosphere, familiar but at the same time festive and fun. Very nice and very clean place with a magnificent view of the river. Stuart and the rest of the staff are super welcoming and helpful. Although no vegetarian dishes are mentioned on the menu, an absolutely fantastic soup was prepared upon our request. They also have a wide selection of liquors that are not easy to find around. Unfortunately it is our last evening, otherwise we would return tomorrow too. If you pass by Mae Sariang you absolutely must come!

Very good food ! ... (!!!!) Best fried rice we ever ate (in our 5 weeks in Thailand).
We enjoyed the owner friendliness. He was very charming. He excused the waiting time for the food (we waited like 10 minutes) so it wasn't necessary.
We ate the fried rice chicken with fried egg and the fried rice green curry, drank 3 leo's and water. It was 340bath, very reasonable price for this amazing food. We did even get a free shot ! It was very.nice.
