Nestled in the heart of the old town, FahTara Café is a pleasant oasis, the perfect place to rest during your visit of the many temples in the old city. Connected to the equally beautiful Fah Lanna Spa, this coffee-shop has a rich and earthy atmosphere with Northern Thai decorative touches. Inside, you will find comfortable and large leather sofas and wooden furniture. The back of the cafe hides a quiet little patio with lush of greenery and a water feature. Both spots are refreshing and relaxing!
The concept of the cafe is very simple: local dishes prepared with love and local ingredients. FahTara’s menu presents a large selection of delicious Thai dishes, healthy choices and vegetarian options. Don’t miss tasting their signature “Lanna Herbs Garden Salad”. A light and refreshing mix of salad leafs and fresh herbs served with shrimps or tofu and a delicious tamarind and crunchy coconut dressing (160 Baht). The squid salad (180 Baht) and the Banana blossom salad (160 Baht) are also worth trying. Vegetarians will love the Khao Soi with tofu, the Zucchini Spiral Pasta (160 Baht) and the vegetarian spring rolls (140 Baht).
FahTara also serves a range of coffee and teas along with a rotating selection of desserts. Their signature drink is FahTara Tropical - a freshly handcrafted lemonade infused with a blend of Thai herbs, a hint of mint and a refreshing lime taste. Chic, comfortable and very cosy, FahTara Café is a tiny part of paradise; it will soon become one of your favorite cafés in town.
