Discover the 11 best places in Bangkok to enjoy mango sticky rice–inspired desserts, featuring must-visit spots serving creative twists on Thailand’s most iconic sweet treat.

That viral image of long lines outside Caffè Panna – drawn by a mango sticky rice sundae created with Thai restaurant Laab Bar – is enough to make anyone crave the dessert, even in its reimagined form. Creamy coconut, sweet mango and chewy sticky rice come together in a satisfyingly new way. The only problem? It’s happening in New York, not Bangkok.

Koktail has rounded up 11 Bangkok spots where you can get your mango sticky rice fix without leaving town. Many reinvent the classic with new flavours, proving it’s not just a summer treat but a year-round dessert, perfect for rain (as Bangkok is experiencing) or shine.

1/11 Acai Story

Acai Story’s latest mango sticky rice special combines a refreshing açaí base packed with vitamins, fibre and antioxidants with sweet Nam Dok Mai mangoes sourced from Korat. It’s paired with fragrant pandan sticky rice made with fresh coconut milk, then topped with roasted mung beans, crispy coconut flakes and coconut powder for an extra boost of richness.

2/11 Arabesque

Mango sticky rice clearly decided it wanted a quieter life at Arabesque Bangkok, better known for its Egyptian and Indian cuisine. The house-made rice pudding version swaps the usual coconut-heavy setup for slow-simmered milk and tender rice, then brings in fresh mango and pistachios, turning a familiar dessert into something softer and creamier without trying too hard.

3/11 Cioccolatitaliani

Thailand’s gelato craze has officially reached mango sticky rice, and honestly, it was only a matter of time. Cioccolatitaliani’s latest series combines fresh mango, gelato, coconut sticky rice, crunchy crumble and their Coconut Milk Gioia for a dessert that lands somewhere between Italian gelato and a late-night Thai dessert run.

4/11 Coconut Culture

Coconut Culture on Phra Arthit Road keeps things unapologetically classic. From the retro Thai lettering on its paper containers (hello, school-day nostalgia) to its neatly arranged toppings – don’t miss the palm-shaped biscuit – it celebrates coconut in more ways than one. Go for a coconut scoop with mango, add sticky rice, and you’ve got a sweet, cooling combo perfect for the heat. Standard toppings aside, there’s also a perfectly round frozen yolk you can throw in to crank up the creaminess.

5/11 C.P.S. Coffee

C.P.S. Coffee has essentially turned mango sticky rice into a latte with identity issues in the best way. Part of the C.P.S. Coffee’s new Dirty Series, the Mango Sticky Ritual starts with sticky rice, adds a house-simmered rice milk syrup for richness, then pours in espresso to keep it grounded. Mango foam brings the sweetness and crunchy mung beans make sure nothing about this drink is predictable.

6/11 YenlyYours Dessert

Mango sticky rice, in its classic form, is about as close to a dessert ideal as you can get, Thai or otherwise. But give it a French twist and things start to get interesting. At YenlyYours Dessert, known for its premium nam dok mai mango, they’ve turned it into macaron mango sticky rice. You get chewy sticky rice, crunchy macaron and coconut milk for dipping – basically, texture heaven in one bite-sized package. It’s so petite and cute, you’ll hesitate before eating it. Plus, it’s made fresh right in front of you.

7/11 Kao Nom

Kao Nom’s latest creation is basically a dessert mashup you didn’t know you needed. Fluffy Japanese shaved ice forms a cloud-like base, topped with juicy, golden Nam Dok Mai mango cubes that release tropical fragrance. Sneaky grains of sticky rice hide in the layers. It’s an ideal treat for Thailand’s year-round heat. Hardly anything beats a mound of icy shavings, and the addition of sticky rice and mango makes it even more irresistible.

8/11 Karun Thai Tea

Not long ago, Karun Thai Tea launched the “Infinitude Form” collection in collaboration with the globally recognised, eco-conscious Thai fashion label PIPATCHARA, whose founder, Pipatchara “Petch” Kaeojinda, is one of our 2025 Future Listers. Centred on the concept of “Playground Hopping,” the collection pushes dessert boundaries, exploring new possibilities for classics. Their answer? The mango sticky rice yoghurt black tea: rich black tea layered with sweet mango yoghurt, finished with mango sauce and fresh mango bites. It’s mango on mango, balanced by the tea’s depth – and yes, it’s as delicious as it sounds.

9/11 Kyo Roll En

Of course, Kyo Roll En brings a Kyoto-inspired twist to their take on mango sticky rice, blending Thai and Japanese culinary influences into a wonderful dessert crossover. Their Thai Thai Anmitsu captures this cultural fusion perfectly, pairing two craft ice cream flavours inspired by Thai desserts – Nong Mon bamboo rice and golden threads (foi thong) – with a generous spread of six toppings: coconut jelly, sweet potato mochi, shiratama, taro glutinous rice balls (bua loi), sticky rice, fresh mango and a drizzle of fresh coconut milk sauce. Who would’ve thought anmitsu – a Meiji-era classic – would pair so well with the signature sweetness of Thailand’s own dessert tradition?

10/11 Make Me Mango

Make Me Mango feels less like a name and more like a command born from mango cravings – and they clearly obey it well. Their mango creations never hold back, and the mango island tart is a perfect example of that creativity. A buttery tart base is piled high with mango chunks, complete with a miniature palm tree, just in case the theme wasn’t obvious enough. Hidden inside is sticky rice, revealing a satisfyingly chewy surprise when you cut in. Tropical? Absolutely. But also the kind of dessert that makes you mentally pack a beach bag on the spot.

11/11 Yoba

Meet Yoba’s mango sticky rice Greek yoghurt smoothie – a dessert that basically broke all the rules and somehow made them look amazing. We’re talking velvety Greek yoghurt, strained for a whole 48 hours (because apparently good things take time), layered over chewy black sticky rice for that colour pop, and topped with fresh, juicy mango cubes. It’s like your favourite Thai dessert got a Greek vacation, sipped through a smoothie straw.
