what a nice find the other day on the moat

[logon1]

Opposite the Kawasaki shop on the moat is a tiny coffee shop set back off the road called "happy espresso" they carry the most unusual selection of coffee beans which they roast and grind (if you choose). they have a small garden out front as well as seating inside. English speaking staff. very very inviting kind of like the old beatnik coffee shops of the past

Can you be a bit more specific about location ,north ,souith ,east or west on the moat. There is a serious lack of coffee shops in CM, want to check it out

the strong point of this little gem is that they sell so many types of coffee beans and they roast it as well.

It is not significant that you also drink a cup of coffee there.

lack of coffee shops in CM?  Ur joking, of course.  

I checked google maps and i think this shop is across from the big park in the SW corner of the moat. You'll probably need to do a bit of moping  around to find it.  Esp if it is quiet and away from the road, as advertised.

I'm not familiar with this specific place, but I have seious doubts about the sustainabiity of so many coffee shops, who are paying big rent premiums to locate near businesses that accomodate backpackers for 100-200 per night.

May be though the current political situation in T'land will mean fewer bars open late at night, less alcohol sold and served, all indicating more old men will be getting up early in the morning and needing the caffeine jolt. Too bad however, damn few coffee shops open before 10 am.  

I know Tom&Tom's at MAYA plaza is open 24/7 but 90 baht per cup is outside my range.

it's actually opposite Siam TV

Consequently I don't think many of those people will pay big bucks for coffee !! If they are paying almost the same for coffee as they are for a bed then their priorities are kind of weird.

Although the coffee may be superior at this shop, the location, on the moat road, ain't the greatest, IMO.  Vehicle noise and noxious air pollution along the moat ruins any cup of coffee.
