Get DirectionsAbout Banyan Food Market
Banyan Food Market isn't a club, it's nine food stalls and tables arrayed under an ancient banyan tree, and that's where any dancing happens. The site runs as an open-air food market with paths between vendors rather than a dedicated polished floor; organisers occasionally book DJs or bands and local listings show salsa, bachata and kizomba nights on Monday and Wednesday. Google reviews also mention live bands (jazz) on some evenings and the market's site explicitly invites performers.
The market is open daily 12:00–23:00, so Latin nights tend to start after sunset and the space fills with diners and dancers through close. Expect a mixed tourist/local crowd and plenty of food and drinks rather than a nightclub setup; if you want a smooth ballroom surface bring appropriate shoes. The market sits in Bo Phut (one minute's drive from Lotus Chaweng). Start times and event updates are posted on the venue's Instagram and Facebook pages.
