A really great place! Full of art and creative installations. I stopped for coffee and decided to stay for lunch. The coffee and food were really good They have a yard with outdoor games and lots of seating and shade. They also hold creative workshops. Lovely space to spend a few hours and really friendly staff

Super chill cafe. Can sit inside or across the road where they have plenty of seating by a lake. Love the style, built by the family who run the cafe. Excellent coffee (had a good strong iced latte). Very friendly owners. Will definitely be coming back.

So peaceful and relaxing place away from the packed coffee shop in the town. You might need a car to get here since it is quite far and suburban. They provide variety of coffee and tea menu. The owner and his girlfriend are so friendly and helpful.

Yes, this is the calm oasis you were looking for. A beautiful garden hidden inside a residential neighborhood. The service is great as is the location and the coffee, my favorites, the sweet dry and black honey.

What a stunning place. Along the river, in a gorgeous green area of Chiang Rai. The wooden building is stunning with the pottery and art work everywhere. I got a juice as I don’t drink coffee but it was great. Just loved the chilled vibe of it and sitting and reading and relaxing. Seems a very quiet place, not sure if many people come here but there really should. Just so relaxing.
