They have 2 shops in Chiang Mai and 3 in Bangkok. 2 of the Bangkok shops are mentioned above and the last is at Chula Hospital, open 24/7. The Chula shop is cheaper than the other 2 and always have some nice female nurse/student/doctor eye-candy to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokie36 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Dean and Deluca by Phrom Pong is decent too but a bit pricey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atyclb Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 if you need an espresso or capuchino and nothing special is around better to get one at a 7 / 11 that has a coffee bar. the price is right and once you add milk and sugar or flavor the underlying bean taste is camouflaged.

Dean & Deluca is coffee to perfection. You can nurse their large cappuccino for about an hour and the foam still haven't collapsed. Try their flagship shop at the Cube at Mahanakorn if you also want a bite to eat. It is especially nice in December with all the Christmas decorations. With their membership card, you get one free coffee for every 5 you buy. Edited October 14, 2017 by ExpatOilWorker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amvet Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 I find ordering a small cafe Americano and pouring a single shot of espresso into it is a good way to get a decent cup of coffee when I'm not at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaniel Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Try On Nineteen coffee shop. It is located on Sukhumvit soi 19 about 30 M before the Honey Hotel. Excellent coffee and a good selection of cakes/snacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a boilermaker quite common where I'm from but may I inquire if you have ever tried pouring espresso into a cafe Americano? Remember I said it is a way to get poor coffee to taste OK.

userabcd Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Try a new coffee shop ''Sleep Industry Bed&Coffee'' a little further from Nana/Asoke towards Thonglor near the Dasa bookshop. Had a decent cup of coffee there and they have a good cheesecake topped with blueberries, strawberry and cream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S0S Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Doi Chang Cafe & Restaurant about 75m into Sukhumvit 12 (100m towards Nana from Asoke BTS). In my opinion, good coffee (An espresso/Americano is about B60) (as well as reasonably priced breakfasts and tasty meals). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkk6060 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Some of the recommendations here are for instant coffee places. There is a newer place on Soi 4 (Nana) near the cut off to Soi 6 called Arbarita. Good fresh brew they open at 6am. The best bang for the buck is actually 7-11. Fresh grind brew for cheap.

It is a Chiang Mai coffee shop/farm and they roast their own Arabic coffee. 50 baht before 9 am. I go there 2-3 times a week at 8 am. There is another very good CM coffee shop in Bangkok, but it it outside the area you are looking for. Anyone had a chance to try RADI? I really enjoy their coffee, but of course it also my first cup of the day. I will like a second opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
