Ben’s Restaurant
Ben’s Restaurant is a very busy venue on Bang Niang Beach Road, some 80 metres after the intersection with Phetkasem Road. In an open-sided building with a corrugated metal roof, this unpretentious restaurant is one of the most popular places to go in Bang Niang if you want to feast on pizza. Other classic Italian dishes and Thai favourites are available here, and are also delectable, but the reputation of Ben’s Restaurant is mostly based on its wood-fired pizzas.
