File this one under “Hidden woodland Chiang Mai cafes,” which, yes, is a category we invented.

The homey Munchies Cafe (www.facebook.com/MunchiesCafeChiangMai) is surrounded by farms and foliage, and set southwest of the city. The pastoral vibes continue within: farm-animal murals, exposed brick, raw wood and lots of plants.

The cakes and jams are homemade, which is probably why the Sticky Date Pudding (B75) and Fruit Exotic Cheese Cake (B105) are so fresh and fruity. Take your pastry with a latte (B60) made from a beans sourced from Chiang Rai and Mae Hong Son.

Open Tue-Sat from 9am-6pm, the cafe is 15-20 minutes’ drive from the city center.
