Found this place by chance. Liked the outside walls covered with growing ivy. Had an iced latte with coconut milk. Sat and worked at a very cool 'tree' table. Menu- lots of teas, coffees and other beverages. Hot and cold options. Snack type foods available - fruit danishes, homemade cookies (chocolate and peanut butter options). Nice ambient music Very clean. Staff was very polite. Outside seating is available. Bathroom is upstairs. Definitely recommend

This place is such a gem! John has a true talent, the coffee here is delicious and strong. He used a completely manual process for the coffee and Thai iced tea they were both the best I’ve had on Koh Samui. The store is like an oasis, externally covered in lush plants and tastefully decorated on the inside. I stayed for a few hours getting some work done on my computer and felt totally at home.

This is the best cappuccino I've EVER had in my life (I have it with almond milk). The owner and the whole staff is absolutely amazing. This is one of my top 3 cafes in Koh Samui. The crowd here is mostly local Thais so it gives this cafe a lot of authenticity and local vibe. I simply cannot recommend it enough!

Cozy airconditioned coffee shop, that is easy to miss. Very tasty and reasonably priced caramel macchiato.
