Why should you go there and how do you do it right?

RISE COFFEE is the newest name on most Bangkok coffee lists. Founded in 2020, the micro-roastery has grown rapidly, and its flagship store in the basement of The Storeys at One Bangkok is among the city's highest-rated cafes. The space is decorated with dark wood, gold and orange marble, and divided into three areas: an espresso bar for quick drinks, a bakery counter, and a slow bar where rare filter coffees, such as Geisha batches, are freshly brewed. A specialty coffee is also offered monthly.

It's the upscale segment of the scene, a café for those seeking something special they can't find at home, and not just a cheap morning coffee. One Bangkok is Bangkok's newest mega-project, so a coffee here can be ideally combined with a stroll through the neighborhood or Lumphini Park across the street.

It's open from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM. One Bangkok is directly accessible from Lumphini MRT station, Exit 3. The first RISE flagship store with a roastery is located in Ploenchit, if you're staying near Chit Lom.
