35 South Wharf Promenade, South Wharf VIC 3006, Australia
Restaurant
•Melbourne's funkiest Thai restaurant! It’s hard to walk past Southwharf’s BangPop and not be drawn in. The fresh and delicious Thai smells, the bright colours, the inviting modern interior, and the bikes that line the exterior. It all seems to gesticulate wildly at you, telling you to come on in for a good time. Not just a name that describes the look and feel and taste of the popular restaurant specialising in Thai street food, the titular “bang” actually translates to mean a village situated on a stream. Which this is. If nothing else, BangPop boasts one hell of a view of the Yarra and the city skyline. But then, it does boast much more. Delicious Thai dishes designed for sharing, a bustling atmosphere, and a large, cheery industrial interior. Put it this way: BangPop suits functions, whether a large and raucous dinner, a unique launch party or corporate drinks. BangPop is found along Southwharf Promenade, overlooking the Yarra and the city. It’s easiest to walk or catch a tram down Spencer Street, then wander down by the water. Southern Cross is the nearest train station.

If the idea of a terrace area needed improving, then how about the presence of the Yarra river with a city skyline view as a backdrop. What luck then, that our Riverside Terrace boasts exactly that. A river, along with room for up to 80 ma...

I had a lovely time coming here to chat and catch up with on of my friends. There was a convention happening at the building next to us. We ordered a pitcher of a cocktail and it was quite delicious. We ordered chips, spring rolls, coconut rice, and green curry. Everything came out very fast and was so delicious!
I celebrated my birthday dinner at Bangpop, and it was honestly amazing! We picked a riverside table, and the view, food, and vibe were all perfect. I’ve officially become a huge fan of their Kai Kluk Paeng Tod, roti bread, and peanut sauce — absolutely delicious! Honestly, that’s one of the juiciest chicken tenders I’ve ever had, with perfectly balanced spice and sauce levels. Their fusion-style Sticky Mango Rice totally surprised me in the best way. And the Butterfly Breeze cocktail was so good — sweet, refreshing, and you can barely taste the alcohol. I’m definitely coming back and celebrating many more special occasions here 🌻.
Had a lovely lunch at BangPop yesterday. Forgot pics of entrees but they were lovely, spicy chicken tenders, spring rolls and prawn crackers. Mains were beef cheek massaman curry, chicken pad thai and roti with peanut sauce, all delicious and the front of house guys was delightful!!
We had a hour sitting before we had to go and attend a comedy show in the nearby Plenary. I had to say the staff were very helpful in getting a table for 4 ready within 4 minutes of arrival. We had our meals within 10 minutes of ordering and had our delicious meals with 15 minutes to walk over. All our dishes were tremendous. The flavours were light and refreshing (and not getting that bloated feeling you might get at other Asian restaurants). Well done to all at BangPop South Wharf
Everything here was top quality!!! The staff, the food the cocktails just 100/10 quality service, quality food reflects in the packed house. Thank you all for a wonderful experience xx
