Hidden Gem in Bangkok's Chinatown: Local Boys Coffee

Bangkok's Chinatown hides a gem of a coffee shop called Local Boys. With Bangkok's coffee scene being so diverse, Local Boys Coffee stands out as a must-visit spot. The café exudes a strong American retro vibe, with furniture and decor that reflect a free-spirited and laid-back atmosphere—simple yet full of character.

This local brand was founded by four local boys, and the space is a renovated old building that seamlessly blends modern trends into the narrow alleys. It's hard to miss this spot in the small lanes. The shop itself is compact, with only a few seats, and its dark and orange tones highlight its edgy and stylish vibe. The back wall features reflective lettering paired with red spring couplets, creating a striking yet harmonious contrast.

As for the offerings, the menu boasts a wide variety of coffee options, showcasing the natural flavors of the coffee beans. From the fruity and aromatic "Fruity Fusion Flick" to the rich and chocolatey "Robotic Chocolate Rush," all the beans are roasted in-house.

I tried a black coffee made from beans recommended by the staff, served in a can reminiscent of cold brew. The flavor was quite impressive. Besides coffee, they also offer decaf options and even popsicles.

After enjoying your coffee, you can take a leisurely stroll around Song Wat. The famous Puang Phon Pharmacy is nearby, and the entire neighborhood is steeped in history. I really love this kind of vintage, worn-out charm.
