Baan Saen Saep is definitely one of the coolest spots I’ve found in Bangkok for a day of co-working. Inspired by Japan with a Thai touch, it has two levels, heaps of tables, meeting rooms and fast Wi-Fi with no time limit. There are always plenty of other people working away, so it has a really good vibe without feeling like an office. The food selection is pretty limited, so you’ll probably need to venture next door for lunch, but the coffee and drinks are excellent. It can get busy, although we arrived around 1pm and still managed to get a table.

I came here for brunch while exploring Ari and really enjoyed it. Beautiful space, delicious food and reasonably priced too. There’s also a great upstairs space that would work well for larger group bookings. Definitely somewhere I’d come back to. They also have other locations in Bangkok, I must try.

Pastel is one of those Bangkok rooftops that’s about much more than the view. You can come for a beautiful Mediterranean dinner and sunset over the city, but I think the best time to experience it is after 10pm. The DJ takes over above the bar, dancers and a saxophone player come out, and before long everyone is up dancing. A must for a fun night out in Bangkok, especially if you’re celebrating something special.
