For the Caffeine Fiends

written by Bangkok101 January 10, 2020
Little Blue

Presenting a carefully selected list of craft coffee shops for those with coffee in their bloodstreams


Given how countless coffee shops and cafés have become in the past couple of years both as an industry and Instagrammable fads, it is getting rather difficult to separate between the two from time to time. 

Bangkok 101 has put the editorial team’s blood to caffeine ratio on the line, trial and tested and put together a list of specialty coffee shops that all ‘coffee folks’ and ‘caffeine addicts’ would deem must-visits. How many of these places match your favourite haunt(s)?

Factory Coffee 

This Bangkok based coffee shop does brewing, roasting, café consulting, barista training and coffee catering. Their baristas earned multiple awards including Top 13 World Barista Champion, Barista Champion, 1st Runner-up TNBC, Indy Barista Champion, and 4th runner-up latte art 20. A few of their signature menus are cocktail style coffees which are mixed, poured and served in front of you with little gimmicks such as smoke and spray. 


49 Phayathai Rd. 

Open daily: 8am-6pm 

Tel: 080 958 8050 

Bluetamp Cafe

One highlight at this small café located in a great spot is the Australian style coffee or flat white which is equal parts smooth steamed milk and espresso. Bagged local, Campos—superior blend and House Blend coffee beans are also sold here.

Standing on the second floor of an old storage building, the coffee fans must enter through the storage room downstairs with a partially cleared path for the staircase to get to the coffee shop above, lending to a super rustic yet unintentionally instagrammable atmosphere.

Ristretto Corp 

This hidden legend is known for simple yet complex black, non-acidic coffees. You definitely don’t want to ask for extra sweetness from this place.
