A quick cup before the train and a table for a long conversation need different coffee stops. Around Asoke, these five addresses give you a choice between a full cafe meal, a smaller coffee room and a roastery visit.
Kuppa: coffee with the option of lunch
Kuppa combines home-roasted coffee with a food menu at 39 Sukhumvit Soi 16. Keep it in mind when one person wants a drink and another wants a meal, or when coffee may run into lunch.
Invisible Coffee Room: the smaller stop
Invisible Coffee Room is a small specialty-coffee address on Soi 16. Ask which beans are being served, then choose the drink you want. For a larger group, seating is worth arranging before arrival.
Y’EST Works: follow the roastery
Y’EST Works Coffee Roastery lists an Asok location at 41/1 Sukhumvit Soi 23. It takes this selection to the other side of the interchange. Make it a separate coffee destination if you are already exploring that part of Asoke.
Artis Coffee: at the entrance to Soi 18
Artis lists coffee, pastries and sandwiches, with indoor and outdoor seating at 390/20 Sukhumvit Road. The address puts a coffee stop at the main road rather than further inside a soi.
GRUN Cafe: beside the market
GRUN Cafe is another Soi 16 coffee address, beside Whale Market. Pair it with a weekday market visit or keep it as a short stop on the way through the neighbourhood.
Choose by the part of Asoke you are using and the time you want to spend. Current menus, seating and service times are best checked through each cafe’s own channels before a special trip.
