Sla Kram, north of the center, has the most cafés with outdoor seating, closely followed by Kandal Village, with smaller numbers in Wat Bo, Taphul and the streets off Sala Kamreuk Road. The tables come into their own from November to March, when the weather is cooler and windier and visitor numbers peak.1

Rain decides the rest of the year. The wet season runs from May to October and brings most of the town's roughly 1,406 mm of annual rain.2 September is the wettest month, at about 288 mm, while January sees under 4 mm.3

Local tip: From May to October, choose a café with an indoor room as well as outdoor tables, such as The Bean Embassy or The 1961, so a downpour does not end the visit.

Where these cafés are: Sla Kram & Charles de Gaulle (7), Kandal Village (5), Wat Bo (3), Sala Kamreuk (2), Taphul & Night Market (2), Old Market & Pub Street (1).
