Best Thai Restaurant in Bangkok for Fried Chicken & Champagne

When you think of fine dining in Bangkok, the words “fried chicken” probably don’t come to mind first. But Birdies, the new casual fine dining Thai restaurant in Bangkok, is flipping the script—and it’s doing it with a glass of chilled champagne in hand. 

At Birdies, located in the vibrant heart of Bangkok, comfort food meets culinary creativity in a space that’s as warm and inviting as the flavors on your plate. The unlikely pairing of fried chicken and champagne isn’t just a gimmick—it’s an intentional celebration of nostalgia, playfulness, and modern indulgence. 

What Makes Fried Chicken and Champagne Work? 

It’s all about contrast—rich, crispy, juicy fried chicken paired with the crisp, effervescent elegance of champagne. The salty crunch of golden fried chicken complements the refreshing acidity and bubbles of champagne, cutting through the fat and enhancing every bite. It’s a bold culinary combination that surprises, delights, and satisfies all at once. 

Birdies doesn’t just serve any fried chicken—it’s a refined, flavor-packed version inspired by American comfort food, infused with subtle Thai influences. Think shatteringly crisp skin, tender meat, and bold seasoning, served with playful twists like Birdies' signature fermented hot sauce or green curry ranch. 

Champagne, on the other hand, is no afterthought. At this Thai restaurant, you’ll find a carefully curated selection of sparkling wines and champagnes chosen specifically to elevate the dish. Whether you're a connoisseur or simply champagne-curious, there's a pour for you. 

A Thai Restaurant That Feels Like Home—With a Twist 

Birdies was designed to be approachable, fun, and unexpectedly nostalgic. It’s a casual fine dining restaurant where the music is good, the lighting is soft, and the food is meant to be shared. The team behind Birdies wanted to challenge what a Thai restaurant could look and feel like. So instead of ornate formality, you’ll find minimal, modern interiors, creative plating, and a cheeky sense of humor across the menu. 

And yes, Birdies is proudly rooted in Thailand. While the vibe may feel fresh and international, many ingredients and inspirations come from Thai culinary traditions—just remixed in a way that feels current and exciting. You’re just as likely to taste green curry notes in a sauce as you are to spot a Thai herb in your cocktail.
