Chiang Mai cafe group with a central roastery on the Ping River.

Thanit Suvanish is named as founder and owner, and opened the Ping River branch in January 2018. The Coffee Roaster branch is the roastery for the whole chain. At the Ping River branch, the shop's team roasts more than one hundred choices of coffee beans, and popular blends include Berries Blend, Strawberry Cheesecake and Peach Blend.

The brand's website lists nine branches: eight in Chiang Mai, from Jing Jai Village and Nimman to the airport, and one at Central Pattaya Beach.

At this shop

On Rotfai Alley in Wat Ket, a gravel forecourt with a length of railway track, concrete benches and a steel gateway carrying the name leads to a front wall of white diamond-patterned tiles. Inside, a long black steel bar runs through a bare concrete hall under skylights and exposed ductwork, with stools along the bar and benches between the columns. Drinks are made at a slow bar and nitro zone behind it.
