Jian cha Tea 见茶山 - Dragon Town

About Jian cha Tea 见茶山 - Dragon Town

Jian Cha (见茶山, เจี้ยนชา) is a Thai-founded Chinese tea brand, started by three friends who love Chinese tea. This branch is on the 2nd floor of Dragon Town on Banthat Thong Road, up a short flight of stairs behind the Akong shrine. Inside it's bright and clean with a minimal Chinese look, and the light is good for photos.

The menu is all about freshly brewed tea: milk teas, pure teas, fruit teas and blended fruit-tea smoothies. The fruit is prepared fresh (the grapes are peeled by hand), and you can top most drinks with the shop's homemade cream cheese foam. Most drinks cost around ฿110–165.

It's an easy add-on to a Banthat Thong food walk. Grab a fruit tea after dinner on the street, or come in the afternoon for something sweet. Wongnai reviewers most often call it a spot for couples.

Why it works for a date

• Homemade cream cheese foam
• Bright, photogenic room

Good to be aware of

• Upstairs on the 2nd floor, reached by stairs
• Can get busy at peak times
• Cream cheese costs extra (+฿30)
