Ratings, and what the average hides
Google rating, 4.4 from 54,743 ratings, as of 2 August 2026. This is an attributed figure from our source data, not a review of ours: we have not visited Chatuchak Weekend Market.
Within our boundary that puts it 1st of 7 shops and markets with at least 25 ratings. That threshold exists because a 5.0 from six ratings tells you less than a 4.5 from four hundred.
61.3% of ratings are five star and 1.6% are one star.
When it is busy
Chatuchak Weekend Market is quietest around 4 AM on Sunday, and busiest around 2 PM on Saturday.
This comes from published popular-times data, which our source records for 137 of the 585 places in our dataset. It is derived from aggregated location history, so it describes a typical week rather than today, and it is not something a business can opt into.

Where does this information come from?
A map-based business dataset, last refreshed on 2 August 2026, plus figures we compute from it: distance from the station, rank within the category inside our boundary, and the shape of the rating distribution. We hold no description, photograph or menu for Chatuchak Weekend Market and have not invented any. Everything we do and do not cover is set out on our methodology page.
What this page is, and is not.
Everything above is either a field from our source data or a figure computed from it. We hold no description, photograph, menu or price list for Chatuchak Weekend Market, so this page contains none, and it contains 7 of the seven computed sections a listing page can have. Pages with fewer than four are not published at all.
Ratings are attributed to our source and dated. They are not our reviews and we reproduce no review text. Our full methodology and coverage explains what the dataset misses.
