2. Starbucks Reserve, ICONSIAM

Although the pandemic has forced a lot of things to a standstill, there are still some exciting new openings in Bangkok that happened over the past two years. One of such is the opening of a beautiful Starbucks Reserve store in ICONSIAM, a 1,260sqm space overlooking the scenic Chao Phraya River! It's currently the largest Starbucks store in Thailand and sports some impressive architectural details, from huge floor-to-ceiling windows, a swirling staircase, vivid murals, a mixologist bar, and a rooftop seating area offering panoramic views of Bangkok's iconic river.

3. Toby's on Sukhumvit 38

Toby's is a cafe that will make you feel like you're in Melbourne rather than in Bangkok. This trendy cafe is popular amongst expats and will delight you with its Australian-inspired menu, offering classic brunch favourites such as avocado toast, granola, pastas, and pastries. Overall it's a good spot for brunch, especially if you're craving something Western after having enough of tom yum and pad thai over the past few days. We especially love its relaxing vibes and zen space decorated with lots of plants and wood.

Address: 75 Sukhumvit 38 Alley, Khwaeng Phra Khanong, Khet Khlong Toei, Krung Thep Maha Nakhon 10110, Thailand

4. Floral Café at Napasorn

Planning to pop by Bangkok's famous 24-hour flower market? If you're in the area, keep your eyes peeled for this secret gem of a hidden cafe located deep within the flower market of Pak Klong Talad. Floral Café is nestled on the second floor of a quaint flower shop, and will make your heart flutter with its beautiful flower arrangements that apparently change according to the four seasons. Decor aside, the cafe's menu is equally magical, offering a selection of sweet treats (many of which are inspired by flowers, of course), from rose ice cream to lavender tea, berry brownies, and lemon poppy seed cakes.

Instead of the basic English muffins or buttered bread, brunch classics like Eggs Benedict and avocado smoked salmon toast are reimagined with extra-fluffy souffle pancakes! The cottony, melt-in-your-mouth pancake texture shines in their sweet dishes. For something beyond the usual, get the Charcoal Souffle Pancakes, which come with a generous portion of mango on the side.

A unique hybrid of conventional white cold brew and espresso-based latte, KIMMIK’s Cold Brew Latte tops cold milk with a super-concentrated cold brew made from Thai coffee beans. For something beyond a usual affogato, get the Mat-zuki–to (short for Matcha Adzuki Affogato). Combining frothy matcha with a scoop of creamy adzuki bean ice cream, this twist on affogato is earthy, sweet and immensely satisfying.
