Jet-lagged, or just hungry at 2 am? Here's where to find 24-hour food in Taipei, every place checked in October 2026 as genuinely open all night or until dawn. We start with the East District and Da'an, where we are, then the old-school spots in Ximen, Zhongshan and Yonghe. A lot of older lists include places that have since cut their hours; those aren't here.
