“ Coffee and food are great!!!! Wasn’t sure if to come in because it’s on the street, but it worse your start of the day ”

“ I had the most amazing charcoal coffee latte and bagel with avocado and fried egg. The owners are a beautiful young family. Great little coffee/brunch spot! ”
“ Wow.. Really great place to go to for coffee or something to eat. Everything was really tasteful. ”
“ I was impressed by the quality of the food and coffee. I was expecting it to be good with the reviews I was reading and I was still astonished by the espresso flavours perfectly balanced with the milk of this piccolo latte, the burnt toast - like a caramelized bread - was delicious with its sauce and ice cream and my parter had a es-yen (ice coffee with condensed milk) and it reminded us of affogato, highlighting the chocolate notes of the beans. My partner was also very happy with the egg and ham bagel saying everything was perfectly balanced, satisfying and pretty filling. To add to the experience, the service is remarkable. I believe it is the owner and its wife who each take care of the coffee and cooking part respectively and their approach is very friendly, warmhearted and peaceful. The space is tiny, perfect for a little stop "on the way" before it gets you going. I would highly recommend! ”
“ The best ES Yen coffee in Thailand! :) Even with milk, I could still taste and smell the rich coffee beans. It had a nice balance—dark with a hint of acidity. The Dirty coffee was amazing too. The flavors were perfectly harmonized. I initially thought the price was a bit high, but after one sip, it all made sense. ”
“ Such a lovely family run coffee shop with delicious coffee and amazing food. Definitely the best place in Pai for a breakfast and coffee. All beans and locally grown and roasted in Pai. ”
“ The best coffee I’ve had in Thailand so far and the French toast was delicious too. Clearly a family run place which was super nice! Well air conditioned too if you want to get out of the midday heat ”
