Agalico Tea House , Bangkok
March 29, 2014So its cafe hopping while we're in Bangkok. Found a nice place for some high-tea
With their all-white tearoom, leafy garden, graceful glass gazebo, homemade scones, apple crumble and a wide selection of teas. This is a really pretty place indeed! The entrance is really concealed, I saw several people walk pass it before walking back, peeping in and then deciding that they've found the right place. The whole cafe didn't have a signboard anywhere either, so I have no idea who knew it's called Agalico? Often you will bump into Thai actress acting or having their tea time there. I've bump into Panward Hemmanee , no idea who was she until I ask one of the staff there only realize she is a Thai actress. Oh well , I just miss the chance taking picture with her :(
The cafe had about 3 levels, but the main seating area is only on the ground floor. the upper level had a room that looked like a living area, with vintage photos of Thai monarchy and others hanging on the walls.
Food wise, the selection was limited and average. They had a wide range of teas, but felt more like a mish-mash of whatever they could find rather than a premium selection.
The garden area behind was really lovely, but just being there in the afternoon under the hot Bangkok sun was not the best idea!
Directions:
It's very near Thong Lor BTS. Walking down the main road, you'd pass by Soi 53 first then at Soi 51, turn in and it's a very short walk before you reach a white "English-looking" building on your right. Turn in and at the door next to the security guard post, you'd find the entrance.

Its was a nice quiet place to have high tea. One visit is good enough to enjoy the environment and also taking photo session. Food wise really very limited.
