Starbucks is known for its great selection of coffee and unique seasonal drinks. Over the past few years, this coffee giant has been turning away from boring storefronts and buildings, instead housing its outlets in creative structures that make heads turn.
Here are 10 unique Starbucks outlets around Thailand you should order a cuppa from on your next visit.

Ayutthaya is the former capital of Siam Kingdom, and visitors will be able to find ancient ruins all over the province. The best part is that it only takes an hour or so on wheels from Bangkok, making it a perfect day trip location.
Starbucks Fast Fac Wang Noi stands out thanks to its orange brick exterior, which is meant to mirror the same materials that were used to build Ayutthaya’s ancient palaces and temples.

Hidden behind the brick walls is a spacious interior with floor to ceiling windows and a mezzanine to unwind and enjoy your drink.
If you’re taking a trip to Ayutthaya from Bangkok, don’t forget to drop by this ancient-looking Starbucks before heading back on the road.

2. Kad Farang, Chiang Mai
Starbucks Kad Farang in Chiang Mai is inspired by traditional Lanna temples, which emphasise the local charm.
Note: Lanna is a word in Thai northern dialect meaning “northern people, tradition, and territory”
This outlet has really paid attention to all the little details such as lighting and the art work, making sure it looks like a real temple rather than a studio prop.
Everything from its white arch entrance to the actual building screams “Lanna”, and needless to say, makes for a gorgeous photo backdrop.
