28 Days Off – Specialty Coffee: A Quiet Japanese-Style Cafe in Prachinburi
Photos provided by Google Places.
I stopped by this small specialty coffee roaster in Prachinburi last week, and it’s one of those low-key spots that feels like a nice break from the usual chain cafes. The Japanese-style decor gives it a cozy, minimalist vibe that coffee people seem to appreciate.
Why People Like It
- Solid specialty coffee — reviewers who know their beans mention high-quality roasts and skillful baristas
- Knowledgeable staff — several people noted the baristas are friendly and can walk you through their coffee options
- Relaxed atmosphere — the Japanese aesthetic and chill setting make it easy to hang out for a bit
- Outdoor seating — about four tables inside, with plenty more outside if you prefer fresh air
What to Order
The dirty coffee gets specific praise for being smooth, rich, and well-balanced — seems like a safe bet if you’re into espresso-based drinks. The croffle (that waffle-croissant hybrid) also got a shout-out as a good pairing.
Non-coffee drinkers have options like matcha lattes, though one person found the matcha strawberry latte a bit disappointing. The bakery items are described as "okay" — nothing spectacular, but they’ll do if you want a bite.
Best Time to Visit & Ambience
Open 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM daily except Wednesdays, so plan accordingly. It’s a small spot — cozy if you like intimate cafes, but could feel cramped when busy. The outdoor area gives you more breathing room.
The vibe is laid-back and Japanese-minimalist. Good for a quiet coffee break or some solo time with a laptop.
Practical Info
Address: Suwannason Rd, Tambon Khok Mai Lai, Muang, Chang Wat Prachin Buri 25230
Hours: 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM (closed Wednesdays)
Rating: 4.7/5 from 254 reviews
No specific pricing mentioned in reviews, but specialty coffee spots in Thailand typically run 80–150 baht for drinks.
Heads up: Service is generally friendly but fairly hands-off — don’t expect constant check-ins. One reviewer mentioned finding a hair in their food (they got it replaced), so quality control might be hit-or-miss on the food side.
Final Thoughts
If you’re passing through Prachinburi and care about decent coffee, this is worth a stop — especially if you appreciate knowledgeable baristas and a calm setting. Just manage expectations on the food and go primarily for the coffee.
