MockingJay 1,720 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 So much serious stuff and news out there... Thought it's time to start a casual discussion about coffee... My wife and I are very much into coffee and we also have our very own little cafe in the South of Thailand using a manual pro machine, doing our best to always get the perfect shot. We're currently trying to farm and roast our very own coffee...However, when we are "on the road", it at times becomes a very depressing task to find a good cup of Cappuccino or Latte at one of the local roadside cafes (even though most of them are very stylish and comfy), and even some of the franchise coffees suck big time.For example: While I love and adore their logo very much, I however find the actual hot coffee served at Cafe Amazon absolutely revolting, with an overly strong and bitter taste and horrifying aftertaste. A hot Amazon coffee, Cappucchino or Espresso is almost unbearable in my opinion. Black Canyon is a bit better, but still far from enjoyable...We found that - at least to us - Mc Cafe and Starbucks serve the tastiest coffee. What's your favorite? Link to post Share on other sites
dotpoom 8,185 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Amazon, not for it's coffee but for the decor. I'm not a coffee man but enjoy relaxing with an "Iced" one. Link to post Share on other sites
Rinrada 166 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 One I go for is in surprise... surprise... Makros in Hang Dong. More of a coffee bar located adjacent to the big lift but the Cappucchino serve up by "Khun Jen" is for me the best I have tasted in CM. Visit at least once a week and handy for hanging out for beer opening time when I can pick up my case..or 2 of Heinekin,coupleof bottles of wine as well as a stack of baguettes..avec fromage et legumes.......bien.

Loptr 3,458 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 WaaWee Coffee... My GF is hooked on their Ice Boom Cappuccinos... Link to post Share on other sites
uksomchai 610 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I stopped going to these shops even though I love coffee. I have yet to walk into a single one of these shops, ask for a Large black coffee and simply get one. Every single one just asks me whether i want a Americano, espresso or rattles off some name of which I know nothing about Just how hard is it ? Link to post Share on other sites
judax 24 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Tea Leaves and Beans is the best. Definitely not Starbucks which has no culture by serving coffee in a paper cup. Link to post Share on other sites

Ombra 196 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Caffe D'Oro. The branches are mostly in Bangkok, but there are some in the provinces. Their bags of beans are very good value. The company's website has a map showing the location of the coffee shops. Link to post Share on other sites
Sheppo 78 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Starbucks, Beach Road, Pattaya Cannot wait to get back there for Christmas. Perfect coffee after a walk from hotel, then back for their great Iced Coffe in afternoon to put a lining on my guts ready for the Singha!!! The staff always smiling and so pleasant Link to post Share on other sites
