Grass & Coffee Cafe: A Green Garden Cafe in Nakhon Nayok

With long New Year holidays coming up, a lot of people are probably hunting for a pretty restaurant or cafe with a nice atmosphere to snap photos for social media, right? We'd like to recommend Grass & Coffee Cafe. We're sure it will tick all your boxes.

Don't let your New Year be boring. Try somewhere new and a new place to eat, and one of them is Grass & Coffee Cafe (Ya Thiam Lae Kafae Nai Suan). It isn't far from Bangkok, just about a 2-hour drive, located along Rangsit-Nakhon Nayok Road. The cafe has savory dishes, desserts and loads of photo spots, so it's a place a lot of people are likely to love.

Grass & Coffee Cafe is decorated with a nature theme: shady trees and bright green grass that are easy on the eyes, giving you the full nature vibe, quite different from Bangkok. There are tons of photo spots here; if you love taking pictures, you could spend all day.

Best of all, the cafe has both outdoor and indoor zones. If you prefer to enjoy nature from a distance or don't like the heat, sit indoors. But if you want to chill out with nature, Meeting Point says the outdoor zone is perfect.

The food at Grass & Coffee Cafe holds its own too, with both Thai and Western dishes. Among the Thai dishes, the one that wowed us was the crispy pork stir-fried with chili and salt over rice. Big pieces of pork with crackling skin, and the kitchen uses fresh chilies and fresh garlic without holding back. Eaten with hot steamed rice, it's delicious; everything goes together and the flavors are spot on. If you come here and don't order it, you're missing out.

Now for the Western side: spaghetti stir-fried drunken style with seafood. The pasta is cooked just right, chewy and soft, stir-fried with bunches of fresh green peppercorns plus plenty of shrimp and squid. Bold and spicy, it's a Western dish with a fiery Thai twist, and everything is perfectly balanced. They're not stingy with ingredients here, the portions are huge and great value, and the price isn't high either.

The drinks at Grass & Coffee Cafe are just as good, with coffee and other beverages for you to enjoy.

The overall atmosphere is nature-inspired with lots of photo spots and plenty of shade, perfect for relaxing and de-stressing on a day off, especially for office workers who spend all week inside a building without seeing the sun or the moon.

The cafe actually has a huge range of food and drinks, and what you see here is just a small part of the menu at Grass & Coffee Cafe. If you'd like to eat or take selfies at its pretty corners, drop by at the address below. We promise you won't be disappointed.
