During my last trip to Bangkok, I spent some time exploring Thonglor (Thong Lo), one of the city’s trendiest districts. This area is packed with stylish cafĂ©s, creative spaces, and cozy hangouts. If you’re looking for a chill place to relax, work, or simply enjoy good coffee, here are four spots I personally visited and loved.
1. (un)FASHION Cafe
đ 3 Ekkamai 10 Alley, Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok 10110, Thailand
This was one of my favourite stops! (un)FASHION Cafe is a super cozy and family-friendly spot, with plenty of space for kids to play. I noticed a lot of Japanese patrons here, which makes sense since the area is popular among expat families. The best part? Itâs connected to a vintage shop selling beautifully crafted leather products. I spent some time browsing before settling down with a cup of coffee, just soaking in the relaxing vibe.
2. Bigknit Cafe
đ 1st Floor, RQMALL Sukhumvit 49, Watthana, Bangkok 10110, Thailand
This cafĂ© was such a unique find! If you love knitting or crafts, youâll definitely enjoy this place. Not only do they serve coffee and snacks, but they also sell yarn and knitting supplies. I saw a few regulars working on their projects while chatting over teaâit felt like a little creative sanctuary in the middle of Bangkok. Even if youâre not into knitting, the warm, homey atmosphere makes it worth a visit.
3. theCOMMONS
đ 335 Akkhara Phatsadu Alley, Khwaeng Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok 10110, Thailand
I love discovering cool community spaces, and theCOMMONS was exactly that. Itâs a semi-industrial co-sharing hub where people come to work, chill, and socialize. The open layout, natural light, and mix of cafĂ©s, food kiosks, and artisanal shops made it an ideal place to hang out. I grabbed a coffee and just enjoyed the creative energyâitâs perfect if you need a spot to work remotely or just unwind.
4. Audrey Cafe & Bistro
đ Soi Thong Lo 11, Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok 10110, Thailand
For a more elegant and laidback experience, Audrey Cafe & Bistro was the perfect spot. The European-inspired decor gave it such a charming feel, making it a great place for a relaxed meal. I could see why itâs a favourite for couplesâthere were plenty of picture-perfect corners, and the ambiance was just lovely. I enjoyed a delicious meal while taking my time to soak in the cozy setting.
Why I Loved Exploring Thonglor
Thonglor is more than just a nightlife districtâitâs full of hidden gems perfect for cafĂ©-hopping, working, or just unwinding. Whether youâre into crafts, community spaces, or stylish bistros, thereâs something for everyone.
If youâre planning a trip to Bangkok, I highly recommend checking out these spots! Let me know if youâve been to any of them or if you have other favourites in Thonglor. đ
