Welcome to Moody Cafe & Hostel, a delightful haven nestled in the heart of Chiang Mai at 44 7 Loi Kroh Rd. This charming café not only serves exceptional coffee but also offers a unique experience that combines the warmth of feline companionship with a minimalist design aesthetic.

As you step inside Moody Cafe, you are greeted by the soothing ambiance that reflects the essence of relaxation. The air-conditioned space provides a welcoming refuge from the tropical heat, making it the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring the city. With cozy seating and a tranquil vibe, you’ll feel right at home, whether you're settling in for a quick coffee or planning to linger for hours.

The café is run by a young Thai gentleman, whose passion for coffee is evident in every cup he brews. Guests rave about the coffee; as one satisfied patron, John Herlihy, puts it, “Best coffee I’ve tasted in Chiang Mai.” Each sip reveals a rich, well-balanced flavor profile that showcases the barista’s dedication to his craft. Paired with delectable treats, such as freshly baked cookies that carry a hint of French sweetness, Moody Cafe promises a satisfying culinary experience.

Adding to the café's charm are its resident cats, who are more than just pets—they are the true stars of the establishment. Claudia Lee shares her love for the café, reminiscing about moments spent with the cats while enjoying her coffee. It’s not uncommon for visitors to find themselves in delightful company with these furry creatures, further enhancing the cozy atmosphere. One guest, Kunakasem U, describes the café as “a cat cave,” where both the friendly cats and attentive barista create an inviting experience that beckons you to return.

As you sip your coffee and enjoy the surroundings, the minimalistic design complemented by soothing colors and simple decor adds to the relaxed environment. The overall aesthetic is not only visually appealing but contributes to the sense of tranquility that patrons love. Drongo Drongo captures this perfectly, commenting on the combination of a cozy feel along with real-quality coffee. This simplicity, paired with the presence of sweet cats napping nearby, makes for an unforgettable experience every time.

For those who want to extend their visit, Moody Cafe is also on the verge of expanding its offerings with a hostel area currently under construction. Imagine being able to enjoy your favorite café while being just steps away from your cozy lodging, making it an ideal choice for travelers seeking convenience and comfort.

With its exceptional coffee, heartwarming atmosphere, and the easy-going demeanor of the furry staff, Moody Cafe & Hostel is a must-visit on your next trip to Chiang Mai.

I love love this coffee shop whenever I visit this Chiang Mai. Owned & run by a young Thai gentleman with his 3 cats ( they are the real bosses that relaxes every moment). My first day when I got to Chiang Mai on Feb 28, 2025, I immediately went there. Cats were busy napping upstairs, cannot be woken up:))) Well finally “Kiao” came over, she is adorable, has her own little bed with her stereo system and pillow, what a life! Great cappuccino, service & kitty company . Thank you always :)

This is a cat cave! the cats are so friendly and welcoming. The barista, he's as cute as his cats. Coffee is nice and well-balanced. Cookies are french -ish sweet(pretty sweet). Overall the place is relaxing. feel like home. back of the shop is under construction including toilet. They might open the hostel area soon. I'm looking forward to visit the café to cuddle with their cats again.

I love this place! The staff and the cats are very sweet and the coffee is real af! The atmosphere is incredibly relaxed and has a minimalist design, but also a cozy, homely feel. The aircon works well in here, so if you are struggling with the tropical climate, then this is where you want to be. I'm grateful that my accommodation is close by; I'm coming here every morning now.

Came here because of the cats on the reviews and yeah, the café is cute and the cats are even cuter. The place is decorated well and feels cozy. It’s nice for a short visit but not really for working long since there aren’t big tables or charging spots. One downside though, the toilet is not great :/
