Nowadays, cafes or coffee shops in Krabi have developed and become more diversified in the past 4-5 years. Both in the Specialty Coffee & Bakery coffee and the coffee roaster. Moreover, in the area of Krabi province itself, coffee beans can be planted and produced in the Khlong Thom district as a robusta species, both regular coffee and weasel coffee.
Two types of coffee that can be grown in Krabi
Klong Thom Coffee or Krabi Coffee is a coffee that has been recognized for a certain quality because the planting area is rich in minerals and has a suitable climate. Therefore, it can produce products such as Robusta coffee beans of Khlong Thom District, Krabi Province.
Weasel Coffee comes from fermentation in the digestive tract of the weasel. The digestive mechanism of the weasel is the one that helps make the taste of coffee beans from weasel waste better than regular coffee by bringing coffee beans to feed weasels, which can increase the value of coffee from 65 baht per kilogram to Weasel coffee at 18,000 baht per kilogram. The price will be as high as 20,000 baht per kilogram, which has already happened in Lam Thap District, Krabi Province.
Five coffee shops and cafes that are popular in Krabi
The first shop that I would like to recommend is the one that is the most complete. We all know coffee lovers that if a coffee shop roasts its coffee, it must be extraordinary. Yes, this shop burns itself, sells it, and, without saying anything, is a bakery—for example, the best different types of croissants in Krabi. In addition, both Thai and ethnic cuisine is delicious.
It is another coffee shop with two branches in Krabi town and Ao Nang to comfortably accommodate tourists and local Krabi townspeople. Tan cafe stands out for its Mexican-style food. Including beverages like coffee, matcha, cold-pressed juices and most importantly, Tan is a cafe that makes Thai tea very delicious. The local Krabi people always recommend it by word of mouth among themselves.
The name of the shop tells it all to be a coffee roaster. It is a shop that coffee lovers from all over the country must come and try. And it is one of Krabi’s top choices for Specialty Coffee. As a local Krabi, I’m glad that Krabi has a coffee roaster to develop and support our Krabi coffee. Also, there must be a bakery to eat together or dessert food when there is coffee. The shop has many to choose from, such as croissants, cakes and many more desserts you need.
Before Krabi came to this point that there were many coffee shops to choose from today, the beginning of the coffee industry, Specialty Coffee & Bakery, must be attributed only to this cafe, which is considered the first cafe that serves fresh coffee and desserts, which is a meeting point for gangs. With the charm of sweet food that local Krabi people are well known for. “This shop makes their own cakes. Fresh and fresh for sure” or if you think of cakes like crepe cakes, it must be this shop only. As for coffee standards, not to mention that the shop has continuously developed techniques and tastes and is considered a teacher of coffee for many people that has it all.
And the last coffee shop for this review is a shop that foreign tourists love because it is located in Ao Nang but asks if the local Krabi people know or not. Of course, they know because they have to try and eat at least once per person because the restaurant’s customers are mainly foreign tourists. There is no need to talk about the standard of food and coffee taste, as well as the destination of Krabi people or Thai tourists. If you want to try a new atmosphere, recommend this coffee shop.
