Next to Ari’s buzzing bakery Kenn’s Coffee and Croissant is its sister cafe focusing on chic chocolate creations. The concept is simple: Enjoy their chocolate without unnecessary table manners. Their hedgehog (B245) sees hot chocolate topped with pointy chocolate bars, while Spicy Katie (B265) arrives in a margarita-like drink rimmed with chili and spice on the glass. There’s also a crispy cookie shot (B85) with either single origin or special blend cacao.

Set in a renovated complex on Soi Ari 1, Yellow Lane Cafe is arguably one of Ari’s best breakfast spots.

For breakfast, the cafe offers a range of fresh croissants from vanilla cream (B120) to speck and scamorza (B160). If your breakfast turns to brunch, one of the more interesting dishes will be the salmon pancakes (B410), ricotta pancakes topped with home-smoked salmon, burrata, and salmon roe.

In addition to pancakes and waffles (starting at B280) and smoothie bowls (starting at B290), Hemingway features a standard Hemingway Big Breakfast (B390) and a Hemingway Garden Breakfast for the veggies. If you’re tired of the standard breakfast food, hit up the baked shakshuka eggs (B320) or the huevos rancheros (B340).
Soi Sukhumvit 11, 02-653-3900. Open daily 9am-midnight
Open since 2011, Iwane Goes Nature is still knocking out healthy breakfasts in Asoke. A great spot for a lazy morning garden breakfast, the uber-fluffy pancakes are a constant favorite—try the indulgent Marron Five (B220), served with candied chestnuts and chestnut chiffon cream. Lean into the Bulletproof coffee (B130) with coconut oil and butter, said to facilitate a gradual and intense release of caffine.

Old Town / Charoenkrung
Set inside a renovated 60-year-old jewerly’s shophouse is Charoenkrung’s latest sweet tooth treasure trove. Open a little late for most breakfasters, inside, you’ll find Chutima “Ae” Bovonratanachote from much-loved cafe Sweet Pista baking spellbinding treats like fruit parfaits and tartlets. The highlight, however, is her lemon posset (B165), arriving in a half sliced lemon served with crispy shortbread, a nod to her baking lab’s theme.

On Lok Yun 
For those wanting something a little more old-school to start their day, this cafe is at least eight decades young—still counting and going strong.

You’d be hard pressed to find a better bagel in Bangkok: quality ingredients, good bagels, and a fun menu. Have your choice of a dozen bagel types (B50) and schmear (B50), but for us the best brekkie choice is the Breakfast Epic with Bacon (B215) with a choice of gruyere, gouda, or cheddar. For something a little more fulsome, try the Lock, Stock, and Bagel (B250) which features house-cured salmon.

Found in the sois east of Lumpini, this singular dine-in gem opens for the breakfast crowd who want their morning meal on a quiet street.

It’s hard not to get hungry shopping with the great and the good in Central Foodhall, but if you want to sit down, the Flour Shoppe breakfast includes your standard rise-and-shine staples and a few surprises. A treat here is the breakfast biscuit with bacon, egg, and cheese (B180), and you can have an English muffin instead if you’re opposed to the crumble.

Samantao 
Soi Somkid’s Samantao is an easy stop for something away from the usual cafe fare. Skip eggs and bacon for an outdoor seat, heritage coffee, and creative toast. Top of the list are the kai kratai (fried egg with toppings) (B95) and the toast with chili paste and dried shredded pork (B65). Toast and steamed bread options abound, but for your java, don’t miss the heritage black coffee with custard cream (B75).

Siri House has quickly gained a reputation as one of the better high-end eateries north of Ploenchit, hosting a triumvirate of Quince, Jaqueline, and Luka. While the brunch gets all the attention, before the bubbly crew gets their claws in, pop around to Luka to crunch into their Raclette (290 baht), but the must-have here is the Luka Breakfast Burrito (B330).

Tempered is Bangkok’s latest cacao obsessed cafe, all the dreams of a passionate couple. The space on Soi Ruamrudee 2 is a renovated five-storey office featuring creative baked goods.

Aroon Cafe
NEW
Half furniture showroom, half cafe, Aroon’s owner is the third generation of a furniture-making family, so his cafe is decorated with his own brand. If you like what you see, buy it. But it’s not just the furniture, try their signature coffee creations, like the Lanna Tonic Espresso (B135) that mixes blended coffee with tonic water and longan syrup, or the Aroon Sunrise (B145), an affogato that uses Thai tea ice cream. For something to fill your stomach, have the cruffin, a croissant and muffin, (B145).

This all-day breakfast spot is definitely underrated, serving higher quality bites than their prices. Whatever you want for breakfast—whether it’s a full greasy breakfast for your hangover (Brainwake Big Breakfast, B400), or a comforting Thai choice like khao tom (B155). Coffee starts at as little as B55 baht for an espresso, but we really love their Piccolo Latte (B65). Don’t forget to try their homemade baked goods or gelato—that’s not on the menu.

The new location is better and bigger, including an outdoor yard for kids and dogs to run around. You don’t get many places in Bangkok brave enough to serve chicken and waffles, but Chu is one, try them with whipped butter and topped with bourbon-spiced honey (B300). Not your cup of tea? Try the Egg White Frittata (B320) that comes with smoked salmon, mozzarella, cherry tomato, balsamic onion, and rocket. Coffee starts at B90 for an espresso or B120 for a flat white.

Known for its mile-long lists of seafood, charcuterie, and French desserts, El Mercado in Phrom Phong brings a cozy cafe vibe rather than the busy French restaurant feel at their old location. Hidden on the small road right next to EmQuartier, this cafe-slash-grocer has all your artisanal needs covered. If you’re eating in, you can have everything from bacon quiche (B149) to Mountain Crepe, a savory crepe filled with Raclette cheese, speck ham, and potato (B199).

The name has nothing to do with the capital of Japan; this latest cafe is all about putting a new spin to Thai street snacks. The place rolls out khanom tokyo (a flat thin pancake rolled and stuffed with varieties of fillings) and fills them with unusually surprising combinations—think salmon and truffle cream (B105)—while the standard flavors like Thai custard cream and pandan cream run B60. Pair them with dirty (B90) or yuzu espresso (B150) to get your day going.

At first glance, this cramped Chinese spot in Nanglinchee may not look like much, but once you see all the awards and certificates hanging around the walls, you’ll realize you’ve come across one of the city’s proper dining gems. Hong Kong-born chef Yip brings a ton of experience and expertise from his days at Shangri-La Bangkok’s Shang Palace and serves his shumai and xiao long pao piping hot each day.

On top of his original moo ping (B15 per stick), he has expanded his selection to beef (B28 per stick), chicken (B18 per stick), and chicken liver (B18 per stick).

For something lighter, try their wasabi crab toast (B260) combining chunks of crab meat with wasabi mayo.

Located in a standalone house in the heart of Sukhumvit Soi 24, Nine Pastry specializes in sourdough and pastries with Mediterranean influences.

The result is a natural and earthy flavor with a moist texture and crisp crust. You can also grab sweets like tahini cookies (B350/10 pieces) or chocolate fudge and sea salt cookies (B350/10 pieces).

Popular Hua Hin shopping center Plearnwan came to Bangkok with Plearnwan Panich. The vintage and industrial hints courtesy of galvanized steel and reclaimed wood don’t detract from a pretty polished feel overall. The food is old-school: Thai snacks and breakfast bites such as khai luak (half boiled egg, B40), steamed bread with egg custard (B60), or roast duck in a bun (B110).
Plearnwan Panich, Thonglor Soi 13, 084-541-4565. Open daily 6am-7pm
Roast remains high on most brunch-goers’ checklists, which means that, come the weekend you can face some crazy queues. It’s with good reason, too.

Ekkamai

Australian Michael Conkey’s farmers’ market favorite turned hidden Ekkamai enclave is the perfect spot to start your day with a daily-baked crusty baguette (B120) or buttery brioche (B380). What sets the place apart from your Amantees and your Maison Jean Phillipes, however, are unbeatable Aussie staples like sausage rolls (B120) and meat pies (B180). We’re also partial to the plump meatballs (B180/4pcs)—perfect for sandwiching between a ciabatta (B160). Keep an eye out for recurring picnics.

Ekkamai’s white-flushed home of Melbourne-style coffee culture relocated just up the road from its former home in Tai Ping Tower.

Cure your hangover with their Home Full Breakfast (B360) that comes with scrambled eggs, feta, grilled mushroom and bacon, baby cos, tomato, and avocado.

Our favorite, chicken liver pate (B165), comes with cream cheese, strawberry jam, and sourdough.
