Zapp Noodle Thai Restaurant in O’Fallon, Illinois, adds Sunday Hours Beginning December 14, 2025 — Now Offering Beer, Wine, Mixed Drinks, and the New 3 Zapp Bar with Global eSmart Gaming.
O’FALLON, IL (StLouisRestaurantReview) Zapp Noodle Thai Restaurant, located at 1407 W Highway 50 in O’Fallon, Illinois, has officially announced a significant expansion of its operating schedule. Beginning Sunday, December 14, 2025, the popular Thai restaurant will start opening on Sundays, allowing customers to enjoy the full menu seven days a week for the first time. The update follows months of customer suggestions and reflects the restaurant’s strong growth and rising popularity throughout the Metro East region.
Known for its bold flavors, authentic dishes, and warm hospitality, Zapp Noodle has quickly established itself as a favorite among residents, nearby military families from Scott AFB, and travelers passing through O’Fallon’s busy commercial corridor. The addition of Sunday dining gives guests more flexibility and helps meet increasing weekend demand, especially during the winter season when comforting, aromatic Thai cuisine is especially appealing.
In addition to expanded hours, diners should also be reminded of two important updates:
Zapp Noodle Thai Restaurant now offers beer, wine, and mixed drinks on-site, enhancing the dining experience with a full beverage selection. And earlier this year, the ownership group opened the adjoining 3 Zapp Bar, which serves additional drinks and features advanced eSmart Games, including digital darts and interactive gaming competitions with players across the globe.
Together, these upgrades reflect the restaurant’s evolution into a complete food, beverage, and entertainment destination for the O’Fallon community.
Sunday Service Begins December 14: A Welcome Addition for O’Fallon Diners
The decision to begin opening on Sundays addresses one of the most common customer requests. As Zapp Noodle’s popularity has grown, many guests have asked for expanded hours — especially those who work long weekdays, families who go out on weekends, and diners who prefer to enjoy meals together on Sundays.
Sundays are among the busiest dining days nationally, and Thai cuisine, with its rich soups, noodles, and spice-forward dishes, is especially well-suited to weekend cravings. Whether guests want a warming bowl of noodle soup, a shareable appetizer platter, or one of the kitchen’s signature stir-fried creations, the restaurant will now be able to accommodate them every day of the week.
The timing is ideal, with the expansion arriving just ahead of the holiday season, when shoppers, families, and travelers seek convenient and flavorful dining options during weekend activities. By opening on Sundays, Zapp Noodle strengthens its role as a reliable and appealing dining spot in O’Fallon’s busy restaurant landscape.
A Growing Presence in the Metro East Culinary Scene
Zapp Noodle Thai Restaurant has earned its reputation through consistent quality, thoughtful presentation, and an inviting dining environment. Diners frequently praise the restaurant for:
- Fresh ingredients and authentic flavors
- Friendly, attentive customer service
- Cleanliness and modern décor
- A menu that welcomes both newcomers and Thai cuisine enthusiasts
- Consistently generous portions
The restaurant’s location at 1407 W Highway 50 places it in a high-traffic area that is easy for locals, commuters, and visitors to reach. As O’Fallon continues to grow with new housing, retail, and regional visitors, Zapp Noodle has comfortably positioned itself as one of the community’s most dependable options for international cuisine.
With Sunday hours added, the restaurant becomes even more accessible for families, couples, groups, and individuals seeking flavorful, affordable, and satisfying meals throughout the entire week.
Zapp Noodle Thai Restaurant Now Serves Beer, Wine, and Mixed Drinks
One of the restaurant’s newest enhancements — and an essential reminder for returning customers — is the addition of beer, wine, and mixed drinks now available directly inside Zapp Noodle Thai Restaurant. This upgrade elevates the dining experience by allowing guests to pair fresh Thai flavors with a variety of refreshing beverage options.
Whether guests prefer:
- A cold beer with spicy noodles
- A glass of wine alongside curry or stir fry
- A mixed drink to complement their meal
Zapp Noodle now offers a complete beverage menu that enhances the flavor pairings and overall dining enjoyment. This addition aligns the restaurant with modern dining expectations and gives customers more reasons to make it a favorite weekly destination.
The beverage service also complements the offerings next door at 3 Zapp Bar, offering guests multiple options depending on the type of experience they seek.
Introducing 3 Zapp Bar: Drinks, Relaxation, and High-Tech Entertainment
Earlier this year, the ownership group behind Zapp Noodle expanded its vision by opening 3 Zapp Bars, a connected entertainment concept that enhances the restaurant’s appeal. Whereas Zapp Noodle focuses on exceptional Thai cuisine, 3 Zapp Bar introduces a lively, social atmosphere centered around beverages and interactive digital entertainment.
A Complete Drink Menu at 3 Zapp Bar
Guests can enjoy:
- Domestic and imported beer
- A curated wine selection
- A variety of mixed drinks and cocktails
The bar’s casual, friendly feel makes it an ideal place for adults to unwind after work, enjoy a drink with dinner, or spend time with friends on weekends.
eSmart Games: The Future of Bar Entertainment
What truly sets 3 Zapp Bar apart is its lineup of eSmart Games, a growing global gaming platform that brings interactive entertainment to a new level. Guests can participate in:
- High-tech digital darts with automatic scoring
- Interactive touchscreen games
- Worldwide competitive gaming through live, connected networks
Players can challenge competitors worldwide in real time, creating a fun and energetic environment that blends modern technology with traditional bar entertainment. This global connectivity is rare in the Metro East region and serves as a strong draw for both regular customers and newcomers seeking a unique night out.
A Destination for Food, Drinks, and Community
With the addition of beer, wine, and mixed drinks inside Zapp Noodle and the opening of 3 Zapp Bar next door, the restaurant group has created a multi-layered experience for guests. It’s more than a place to eat — it’s a destination where customers can enjoy:
- Authentic Thai cuisine
- A complete beverage selection
- After-dinner drinks in a relaxed bar atmosphere
- High-tech digital gaming
- Friendly global competition
- A welcoming community gathering place
Families can enjoy dinner together, while adults can stay afterward for drinks or games. Friends can plan group outings that combine delicious food with entertainment. Couples can enjoy dinner and a casual activity without traveling far from home.
The combination of these offerings creates a distinctive experience that sets Zapp Noodle apart in the O’Fallon dining scene.
Why Sunday Hours Matter for O’Fallon and the Metro East
Many restaurants across the region remain closed on Sundays due to labor shortages, cost considerations, or limited staffing. This creates a gap in dining options for local families who often gather for meals at the end of the weekend.
By stepping forward and adding Sunday hours, Zapp Noodle:
- Provides a much-needed dining choice for residents
- Offers convenience for families seeking international cuisine
- Supports the busy schedules of military families from Scott AFB
- Enhances O’Fallon’s growing food ecosystem
- Responds directly to customer requests and community feedback
It also solidifies the restaurant’s commitment to the community and its confidence in its ongoing growth.

With the addition of beer, wine, and mixed drinks, and the unique entertainment at 3 Zapp Bar, weekends at Zapp Noodle are becoming even more vibrant and enjoyable.
Guests can start with a flavorful Thai meal, choose from a refreshing beverage selection, and then head next door for:
- A cocktail
