Shopping
EmQuartier
An upscale Sukhumvit mall known for its striking architecture, rooftop tropical garden, and excellent dining scene.
EmQuartier is the newer, more stylish half of The EM District on Sukhumvit Road, connected directly to BTS Phrom Phong. The mall is split into three interconnected buildings — The Helix, The Glass, and The Waterfall Quartier — each with a distinctive architectural character. Open daily from 10:00 to 22:00, it draws a mix of well-heeled Bangkok residents and visitors looking for a more curated shopping experience than the mega-malls further up the line.
The standout feature is the Helix Dining quarter, a spiral of restaurants winding up several floors with everything from omakase sushi and craft burgers to excellent Thai regional cuisine. The rooftop level features a lush tropical garden with waterfalls and seating areas — a genuinely peaceful retreat that most tourists miss. It’s the perfect spot to cool down with a coffee after walking around the Phrom Phong neighbourhood.
Shopping skews toward premium international and Thai designer brands, with a strong beauty and cosmetics selection on the lower floors. The basement Gourmet Market is one of the best supermarkets in Bangkok for imported and specialty foods. If you’re staying in the Phrom Phong or Thonglor area, EmQuartier is likely your most convenient upscale mall — pair it with The Emporium across the street for a full afternoon.
