About

Sandbox is a café built around one idea kids love: remote-control excavators. It's on Jed Yod Road near Wat Jed Yod, and the play is digging through a sandbox for coloured 'gems' to score points while the adults sit in the cool room with a drink. There are waffles and drinks rather than a full menu, and the diggers are charged by the ten minutes. It's not a coffee destination, but on a hot afternoon with small children it's a very easy win.

Good for

  • Families
  • Small kids
  • Hot afternoons

Know before you go

  • Remote-control diggers reported at 20 baht per 10 minutes.
  • Roughly 11:00–20:00 weekdays, from 09:00 Friday to Sunday; sources disagree on whether Monday or Tuesday is the day off.

Facts checked against 3 public sources: Chiang Mai Mommy, Wongnai and Motdang. Things change, so check before you go.
