There is a gem hidden in Sisaket called “Cuckoo’s nest”. A small pub (closed on Monday) serving Tex-Mex, Italian, foreign and Thai food. It is owned by Brian (American) and his Thai wife. It is not far from the train station, on one of the main street in Sisaket (night market). If you want to enjoy a great meal, this is the place to be in Sisaket. Don’t forget to check out Cuckoo’s Next in Sisaket.
We strongly suggest to try the Chili Colorado Burrito but it is up to you. The service was warm, the owners were nice and if I happen to be in Sisaket again, be sure that it will be the first place I will go!
They have a website: http://www.sisaketcuckoo.com/
And can be found easily on Google maps or this map: http://www.sisaketcuckoo.com/map/
I found them on tripadvisor and friends of mine recommended the place. I was NOT deceived.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Cuckoo’s Nest Restaurant in Sisaket?
Cuckoo’s Nest is a restaurant and pub in Sisaket, northeastern Thailand, known for its welcoming atmosphere, Western and Thai food, and expat-friendly vibe. It’s a popular gathering spot for travellers passing through Sisaket and for the small but active expat community in the region.
Is Sisaket worth visiting for travellers?
Sisaket is off the typical tourist trail, which is exactly its appeal. The province has Prasat Hin Wat Sa Kamphaeng Yai (a Khmer temple), the famous Million Bottles Temple (Wat Pa Maha Chedi Kaew), and access to the Mekong River region. It’s a rewarding stop on an Isaan road trip.
What food can I expect at expat restaurants in Isaan?
Expat-friendly restaurants in Isaan typically offer a mix of Western comfort food (burgers, steaks, pasta, breakfast fry-ups) alongside Thai standards. Local Isaan specialties — gai yang, som tum, larb — are usually also available, often at very low prices. Beer prices are generally lower than Bangkok or Pattaya.
How far is Sisaket from Korat (Nakhon Ratchasima)?
Sisaket is approximately 300 km east of Nakhon Ratchasima (Korat). By car on Highway 226, the journey takes about 3.5–4 hours. Trains also run between the two cities on the northeastern line. Sisaket is a logical stop on a deeper Isaan route heading toward Ubon Ratchathani.
Like many people, I first noticed Slurp Lab because of its unusually high Google Maps score. I should mention something about that score. Customers who leave a five-star review are offered free ice cream. This probably helps the rating, so I would not treat the number alone as proof that the restaurant is exceptional.
