I've had a lot of coffees in Thailand but this was the best I've had. In fact it was so good I had to have a 2nd. The cafe itself is basic but has a nice vibe and nice outlook to the hills

If your up for an adventure drive up a windy mountain road through lush green forests to find a coffee shop on the mountain top among a large coffee plantation then this is the place.

It's a bit of a trek up here, but it's worth it. We ordered cappuccinos, and they were absolute perfection. Thailand has some incredible coffee, and this is no exception. Excellent coffee with a smooth taste. Our coffee even came with a side tea and small cookie...nice touch. The views are really lovely, too. You can enjoy your coffee inside or on the very large outdoor deck facing the mountain. We will definitely return and highly recommend. One of the best coffees we've had in Thailand.

This coffee shop is very layed back and authentic, I like it because its not trying to be too fancy. The coffee is divine, I will buy some for my family. You can also buy local honey and Akha handmade hewellery with shells and beads. So glad we came up here (make sure you have enough gas for the motorbike!)
