The Ekkamai Soi 10 location operates as both a café and a training venue: the floor staff are trainees working through the Steps programmes, which build from life skills foundations into employment preparation and workplace transition. The organisation tracks a 100 percent employment rate for graduates completing the vocational programme. Coffee at all locations uses a special blend roasted by Roots. The café now operates across five locations, with four Bangkok branches and two Phuket franchise locations running the same training model, and the Ekkamai Soi 10 branch at 29/8 Charonmit serving as the original site.\n\nYou order at the counter and the staff preparing your coffee are trainees building vocational skills in a live café setting. The space runs Wi-Fi throughout.\n\nThe menu covers coffee from the Roots special blend and smoothies made with fruit or nut bases. Gluten-free and allergen-free food options run throughout, including vegan selections. Dairy-free ice cream is made in-house at the Ekkamai location. Brunch plates and baked goods run daily. Catering and delivery are available alongside dine-in service, and organic produce features across the menu.\n\nThe Steps vocational programme requires trainees to complete coursework in life skills and employment preparation before transitioning to café floor work. Address is 29/8 Charonmit, Ekkamai Soi 10, Klongtan Nua, Watthana, Bangkok 10110. Phone is +66 85 840 7095. Open daily 8AM to 5PM.","our_take":"The B Corporation certification and 100 percent graduate employment rate separate Steps from a standard specialty café. The Roots coffee collaboration and in-house dairy-free ice cream mean the food operation holds up on its own terms. We think the combination of live vocational training with a well-executed café menu makes this one of the more purposeful stops in Ekkamai.","custom_description":null,"hook":"Certified B Corporation café and vocational training venue on Ekkamai Soi 10, Watthana.
