Into the Woods

Chiang Mai is filled to the brim with cafes that fit every caffeine addict’s dream or desire. For families, skip the minimalist hipster hangouts and head to Into the Woods instead for an afternoon pick me up or sweet treat while getting out of the heat. Located in Chiang Mai’s Old City, the charming cafe is a hit with children thanks to its fairytale décor, including a colourful wall mural and collection of curiosities (poisons, potions and more!) scattered around the shop. Along with a wide selection of coffee and other drinks—many coming with an extra special touch such as character faces or designs drawn into the foam—you’ll also find fresh home baked treats, such as apple pie with vanilla ice-cream, rich chocolate tarts and sweet roll cakes, made daily. With comfortable chairs and plenty of room, the cafe is the perfect spot for families to take a break before their next adventure. For those who can’t get enough of the whimsical shop’s quirkiness, the cafe just opened a branch in Bangkok near the Phaya Thai BTS station complete with a more moody, magical interior and full menu.
