Chill Out: Farm & Cafe is on the outer edges of Bangkok
Children of all ages tend to get excited every time their parents say, “we’re going to the zoo this weekend”.
However, adding the word “cafe” after “zoo” can make the sentence sound even more interesting. At a zoo-cafe, kids will not only have a fun day out exploring the zoo, but can also enjoy eating a variety of their favourite dishes.
If this sounds like your ideal family holiday, head over to Chill Out: Farm & Cafe, a place that’ll allow you and your kids to enjoy the best of both worlds.
Let us take you through the place, and you’ll see why this cafe is going to be your go-to attraction on both weekends and holidays.

What makes this place different from the typical cafes we usually find in the heart of Thailand is that it has its own mini zoo – with no admission fees for all visitors.

The mini zoo houses a huge range of animals and features feeding areas where tourists can get up close & personal with them.

The first highlight of the zoo is a big aviary full of colourful parrots where tourists are allowed to enter and feed the birds.

Not only can you pet the birds, but you can also get a nice shot of yourself with them.

Walking further into the farm, you will be greeted by a group of miniature pigs oinking with excitement at your arrival.
