2 storey coffee shop, handmade and 2nd hand stuffs shop about 600-700m away from Wat Umong. Cozy and comfortable.

A hidden treasure of Chiang Mai, offering delicious homemade scones and jam, as well as top notch coffee and juices. But while many places in Chiang Mai offering great coffee and food, the atmosphere here is hard to match (as are the genuine and talented owners). Not to miss, with two stunning temples within walking distance (Wat Umong and Wat Ramphoeng).

Hidden coffee gems in Chiang Mai. Open more than 10 years and the quality is still very good. This is a quiet place where you can stay calm and enjoy your day-off with a good coffee.

Super lovely space, cafe, second hand clothing, art, stationery, gallery with changing exhibitions, all in one and a super nice atmosphere all around. Also one of the very few places to be open on a Monday is the area.

One of My Favorite Places in Chiang Mai. The spot looks more awesome, the owner is still friendly and looks the same as the moment I visited there 4 yrs ago. A good place to be relaxed mindlessly

Cute rustic little cafe! If you go to Wat Umong, please make a visit to this cafe too. The atmosphere is just so chilling, I didn't really realize that I spend two hours there, feeling like throwing back in your grandma house or place where you grew up. The wooden floor, the fan, and everything. The owner is also friendly, explaning the menu and the place. She has little gallery for her art. You can definitely tell that this place is owned by an artist. I don't eat food there, but the drink (I tried Lassi) was good
