Do not assume every item is vegan
The kitchen is vegetarian and the official site clearly identifies several vegan foods, but it also promotes homemade yogurt and lassi. Ask for the vegan preparation when a dish or drink is not explicitly labelled.

Good to know
The details that prevent surprises.
The baked treats are the clear vegan win
The official site describes the home-baked apple crumble, chocolate fudge cake and mango sticky rice range as vegan. Availability can change, so confirm the day's selection if dessert is the reason for the trip.
Use the alley directions
Ethos sits just off the busy Khao San area rather than directly on the main street. Use the exact map pin or the official walking directions instead of relying on the street name alone.
Ask about allergy preparation
The restaurant says it minimizes contamination and avoids preservatives and MSG, but detailed allergen and cross-contact procedures are not published. Contact the restaurant for strict allergy requirements.
