BONCI
Coffee café by day and bar in the evening on Phahonyothin Road near Saphan Khwai.
About BONCI
BONCI is a two-storey café at 1477 Phahonyothin Road, close to BTS Saphan Khwai in Phaya Thai. Reviewers describe a Scandinavian and mid-century interior with warm wood tones, a darker, moody corner, a photo booth and plenty of photo spots. It hosts frequent brand collaborations and pop-up displays, and Time Out says it was planned to turn into a bar at night.
The draw is coffee. Wongnai members most often recommend the Dirty (฿150), the BIMBOM Cream (฿170) and the Matcha Orange, with Yuzu Sour and Dark Beer Cake (฿120) also mentioned. Reviewers call the latte smooth and not sweet, and praise the pastries such as a salted egg croissant. Wongnai puts spending at ฿251 to ฿500 per person.
It works for a relaxed daytime coffee date near the BTS, with photo-booth strips as a small keepsake. Go earlier in the day, since reported hours end at 17:00 or 18:00. Check its current status before going, as Google has no rating listed for this pin.
