Yasothon's cafes split neatly into two zones. The first is the Ban Singha Tha old town along Si Sunthon and Uthai Ramrit roads, where old Chinese shophouses have been turned into cafes with a genuine old-town feel — most are within a few hundred metres of each other on foot. The second is the city centre along Chaeng Sanit Road, home to minimalist specialty cafes and spots good for getting work done. Coffee mostly runs around 45–95 THB and pastries 50–120 THB a piece. We've ranked these by popularity and how often people talk about them in reviews — it doesn't mean the ones lower down are worse. Each shines in a different way: some you go for the old building, some you go for the coffee.
Yasothon cafes ranked — where locals actually go
All 11 of these are in the city of Yasothon or the Ban Singha Tha old town, so they're easy to reach. Prices listed are rough estimates per cup or per piece and can shift with the menu and time of day. Opening hours are based on what each shop posts — check the cafe's page again before you go, since some of the old-building cafes change their hours and days off fairly often.
Vachi Old Town
The heart of the old-town cafe scene, set in an old shophouse near Wat Singha Tha. They kept the building's bones and that classic atmosphere, then took the specialty coffee seriously. The drinks people talk about are the ES YENN and the Dirty, paired with a freshly baked croissant. Seating is limited but you get the full old-town feel, and the corner against the original wall photographs beautifully. If you're into coffee and you're in Yasothon, start here.
Singha Nom Sod
A well-known fixture in the old town — a vintage wooden house with a Chinese lean, with both indoor and outdoor seating. The big draw is the long hours, from early morning until late, plus a wide spread: fresh milk, coffee, toast, breakfast, noodles, even charcoal-oven pizza. You can eat well for just a little, which makes it great for families or groups of friends. Park nearby at Wat Singha Tha.
Cherpunn Cafe & Cuisine
A city-centre cafe on Chaeng Sanit Road, cream-and-white minimalist mixed with warm wood, airy and easy on the eyes. There's a small garden view and photo corners throughout. They do specialty coffee, fresh bakery, a range of cakes, and a mint cocoa that people love. Good for working, with easy parking out front and in the lot behind — an easy place to settle in for the day.
Washi Yasothon
A cafe on Chaeng Sanit Road built around the idea of being Yasothon's living room. Nicely decorated with several photo spots, the focus is on coffee they select, roast, grind and brew themselves. It suits anyone who likes a warm atmosphere and coffee made with care — another Vachi-family spot that locals drop into regularly.
MezzoX Drip Cafe
A drip-focused cafe in Tambon Samran with a clean design, comfy seating and a nice photo corner. The standouts are the Honey Americano and the drip coffee, which lets you actually taste the bean. It's quiet — good for sipping slowly or working solo.
Lekgae House
A white minimalist cafe in Tambon Tat Thong, crisp and clean, leaning on homemade cakes that rotate fresh. The atmosphere is calm and quiet, good for a relaxed sit or catching up with a couple of friends. It's small but photographs well, and anyone who likes an easygoing vibe will take to it.
Vachi U-Thai Ramrit
Another Vachi branch, this one a more polished spot in the city centre with plenty of photo corners and more seating than the old-town location. It's the pick if you want the Vachi feel but a more comfortable spread of seats — same quality coffee and bakery as the rest of the family.
WaanD
A contemporary Thai-dessert cafe on Nontan Road, known for its loi kaeo Thai sweets and Thai tea with lime. The look is cute and it stays open until 22:00, so it's a good evening stop or somewhere to land after dinner. Anyone who likes Thai desserts with a bit of a twist will enjoy it.
MissAree Coffee Shop
An easygoing, friendly cafe with a few branches around town. The menu covers coffee, tea, toast and waffles, prices are gentle, and it works for a quick sit or a takeaway. It's the kind of place locals stop by as part of their everyday routine.
Coffee House Café by nine
A small cafe locals call a hidden one — quiet and private, focused on coffee and freshly baked pastries. It suits anyone who likes a small, uncrowded place to read or sit alone. It's not big, so check their page before heading over.
Montr8ux Café
A warm, homey cafe out in Loeng Nok Tha district with lots of photo corners and a full menu of coffee, tea, soda and smoothies. It's the spot to break for a coffee if you're driving out of the city toward Loeng Nok Tha — relaxed and unhurried.
Straight talk on opening hours
Several of the old-building cafes around Ban Singha Tha open in set rounds and have a regular day off each week. Some open later on weekends than on weekdays, and the Vachi-family branches each keep different hours. Before you drive over, check the shop's Facebook or Instagram day by day so you don't make the trip for nothing — especially if you've got your heart set on just one place.
Want to taste deeper? Try a Yasothon food tour or cooking class
Half a day with a local who knows the lanes — or cooking a dish yourself — teaches you more than just eating. Book ahead on Klook or GetYourGuide.
Pick a cafe by the vibe you're after
If you'd rather not hop around, choosing by what you want is easier. For the old-town atmosphere, stick to the cafes in the Ban Singha Tha area. For serious coffee, head for the specialty spots in town. And if you're coming as a group or family, pick a place that serves food too so you can stay longer.
Old town & shophouses
Vachi Old Town and Singha Nom Sod sit in the Ban Singha Tha area for that old-shophouse and vintage-wood feel, and they're within walking distance.
Specialty coffee
Cherpunn, Washi and MezzoX focus on selected beans and drip — real coffee flavour, and easy to work at.
Groups & families
Singha Nom Sod has a full food menu, savoury and sweet, and stays open late, while Vachi U-Thai Ramrit has roomy, comfortable seating.
Cafe areas in the city of Yasothon
- Ban Singha Tha old town (Si Sunthon Rd – Uthai Ramrit Rd) — old Chinese shophouses and vintage wooden houses, with Vachi Old Town and Singha Nom Sod within walking distance. Great for wandering and shooting the old town while you're at it.
- Chaeng Sanit Road, city centre — Cherpunn and Washi are along here, the minimalist specialty-cafe zone that's comfortable for working.
- Tambon Samran – Tat Thong area — MezzoX and Lekgae House, drip and white-minimalist spots that are quieter than the centre.
- Out of town toward Loeng Nok Tha — Montr8ux is a good break while driving out of the city rather than a spot in town, so allow for the travel time.
Pair an old-town walk with a cafe stop
The Ban Singha Tha area packs cafes, old shophouses, Wat Singha Tha and street art all within walking distance. Park at Wat Singha Tha, wander and photograph the old buildings, and drop into a cafe or two. Go in the morning when the sun is still gentle and the shops are still empty for the best atmosphere and photo angles.
Doing Yasothon's cafes like a local
- For the old-building atmosphere without fighting for photo angles, hit the Ban Singha Tha area right when shops open in the morning — it's emptier than the afternoon.
- If you're serious about coffee, order a drip or black coffee at Cherpunn or MezzoX to taste the bean in full.
- Singha Nom Sod stays open past 21:30, so it's good for dinner or an evening stop after exploring the old town.
- Many places take PromptPay, but carry some cash for the smaller old-building cafes in case the system goes down.
- Parking in the old town is limited — park at Wat Singha Tha and walk from there. Weekends get busy, so allow extra time.
