Rakuda

★ 4.5 · 77 reviews Chiang Mai Opened Opening date unknown

A quiet cafe pouring Ponganes' respected roasts

Skip the queue-worthy names and sit down here instead. Rakuda is tied to Ponganes Espresso, a Chiang Mai roaster the city's coffee crowd already rates, and that shows in the cup: beans sourced and roasted with intent, espresso and filter both getting equal care.

The room stays calm and slow, a real contrast to the busier Nimman cafes nearby. Come for the coffee, not the photo spot.

    Nice cafe and film developing. Some great photography books to peruse while drinking Thai tea and meeting other photographers.
