Amazing place! The food was delicious and the river view made it even better. What really stood out was how kind and helpful the staff were, they went out of their way to help me. I don’t speak Thai, and they helped coordinate my late hotel check-in with staff who only spoke Thai, and even helped talking to the cab driver. Really grateful for their hospitality. Highly recommend!

I orders a shrimps in coconut milk with rice and my partner ordered green curry. Food was so good I loved the leafy vegetables with my shrimp! Would definitely recommend others here and reasonable prices as well. Thank you to all the staff

Stopped here to grab some drinks while waiting for a train and the staff were so welcoming and the cocktails were phenomenal! Excellent spot by the river to kill some time or (more than) a few delicious drinks!

We found this place on Happy cow waiting for the train to go to Bangkok, it's on the side of the river and it's got an amazing view. They were welcoming and super lovely, the food was really yummy and they have lots of vegetarian and vegan options. Recommend coming here if you have time.

Visited Wednesday, 03rd of September 2025 in the afternoon. It was my second visit after end of January 2023. People are nice, and the location beside the river is just beautiful. Music also was not too high so that it was possible to enjoy the calm atmosphere. The melon smoothie I had was nice. I did not have food this time. Why so only four instead of five stars: They charge 30 Baht for charging your electrical devices for one hour. You get that for free in other places.
