Banta CafeThe cappuccino is excellent, and the beans are top-notch.If you'd like to try something really special, go for the Caramel Slide.
LandinHere you can also work comfortably with your laptop.A really exciting, great area, and the coffee is okay. There are better ones, but still, the staff is super friendly and nice. Maybe I just had a bad day, but otherwise, I really love this place.

Banta Cafe

San Phak Wan, Hang Dong, Chiang Mai 50230

MY IMPRESSIONS

A beautiful café with a wonderfully local feel. The owner is incredibly friendly and speaks English. You'll meet plenty of locals here, along with expats who like to bring their laptops and get some work done. The cappuccino is excellent, and the beans are top-notch. There's also freshly baked cake every day, made by the owner's daughter — and it's absolutely delicious! If you'd like to try something really special, go for the Caramel Slide. It's outstanding. This café is definitely worth a visit!

Landin

Landin, 7 Soi Ban Ram Poang, Suthep, Mueang Chiang Mai District, Chiang Mai 50200, Thailand

MY IMPRESSIONS

The Landin Café is really a place for super relaxing and chilling out. Here you can also work comfortably with your laptop. That's no problem, and the whole area is nice, where you can discover various other small shops, again in the area behind Chiang Mai University. You also see lots of interesting people there, a mix of locals and tourists, but it's not too touristy. A really exciting, great area, and the coffee is okay. There are better ones, but still, the staff is super friendly and nice. Maybe I just had a bad day, but otherwise, I really love this place. Now and then, there are small bands playing quiet music, not too loud, not too aggressive. All in all, it's a relatively chilled and cool place that is definitely worth visiting.

This small and cute café is truly a wonderful place to relax and unwind. Exceptionally good coffee. Right next door you can also order food, which is really great, and very healthy food is offered there as well. It's also an excellent spot to work with your laptop. Truly a beautiful place to enjoy, relax, and unwind, about a 15-minute drive from the Old Town.
