Khot Mu Rim Nam Cafe has neon pink Balinese huts
Cafes are places to meet up with friends or work away from the office. Of course, there are tons of cafes in every corner these days, but you might find it surprising when we tell you that Nakhon Pathom has a floating cafe that will elevate your tea time, just a one-hour drive from Bangkok.
Enter Khot Mu Rim Nam Cafe in Nakhon Pathom that has Balinese-concept huts furnished with pink bean bags and curtains that float on water. We’re not sure about you, but we’re game to dive in and find out how we can have a chill afternoon spill-the-tea sesh with our squad here.

Float on neon pink Balinese huts while sipping on coffee
Khot Mu Rim Nam is a floating cafe in Nakhon Pathom where guests will enjoy their meals and drinks in Bali-style huts floating on the water. What caught our eyes in particular, are the bright pink bean bags and curtains furnishing each hut. Surrounded by banana trees, this cafe exudes the sabai sabai vibes of the countryside that city-dwellers who fancy fresh air and a peaceful atmosphere will revel in.
BTW, this is just a 1-hour drive away from Bangkok, so it’s not too far for a quick escape. Some huts also come with a loft net where you can choose to lie down with your drink, or relax closer to the water.
Two special dining areas – including hidden viewpoints – are reserved for guests to go up there and enjoy entire views of the cafe. We love that these seats also give customers a private space to chill at, away from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the cafe. Since there are only two of them, go early to try to clinch a spot if you wish.
XXL Thai pork fritters for ฿159
As the restaurant offers a wide selection of dishes, you might have a hard time making a decision, so let us recommend one for you. XXL Thai Pork Fritters – or Tod Man Khot Mu – for ฿159 (~USD4) includes two large pieces of fried pork and a smol salad served with sweet sauce.
In case you’re looking for something to drink along with your snacks, try a cup of Black Tea at ฿45 (~USD1) while looking out over the calm, aquamarine waters.
Once you’re done with your food, we’d suggest you explore the cafe because we’re sure you’ll find lots of hidden photo spots. Accordingly, get your DSLR camera ready, and don’t forget to invite your trusted cameraman as a companion for the trip.
Getting to Khot Mu Rim Nam
Instead of driving around Bangkok to find a cafe with a unique design, try visiting Khot Mu Rim Nam in Nakhon Pathom. With its refreshing aesthetic and floating pavilions, you’ll find that the time spent with your friends will be flying by as you sip on your drink on the tranquil waters.
Driving here from central Bangkok takes just under one hour or less, depending on traffic. If you don’t own a personal car, however, simply hail a taxi to take your there. After you’ve paid a visit, don’t forget to let us know what you thought of the place in the comments.
