Hannari Café de Kyoto
111/5 Thonglor 10, Ekamai, 5 Soi Sukhumvit 63, Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok 10110
Hannari Café de Kyoto is a Kyoto-style kissaten on Thonglor operated by Japanese travel giant HIS Tours, the only café in Thailand with a formal Kyoto Prefecture collaboration. The differentiator is genuine Uji matcha sourced from Kyoto, a supply link most matcha cafes cannot match.
Hannari Café de Kyoto brings a Kyoto-style kissaten to Thonglor Soi 10 with institutional backing. It is operated by HIS Tours, one of Japan's largest travel companies, and holds the distinction of being the only café in Thailand with a formal collaboration with Kyoto Prefecture.
That backing shows up in the cup. The tea is Uji matcha, sourced from the Uji district south of Kyoto where Japan's most prized ceremonial-grade leaves are grown. The menu centres on that single ingredient, with items including a Uji Matcha Affogato, giving the café a sourcing advantage that imitators leaning on generic matcha struggle to replicate.
A retail corner extends the Kyoto theme, selling incense and Shiba Inu bags alongside the drinks, which reinforces the connection to Japan rather than treating matcha as a passing trend.
For matcha drinkers who care about provenance, the direct Kyoto link is the reason to seek it out over the many matcha cafes that have opened across the city.
The café is at 111/5 Thonglor 10, Ekamai, near Soi Sukhumvit 63, Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana. Hours run daily 10:30 to 20:30. Contact runs through the venue's Facebook page for reservations and enquiries. Between the HIS Tours backing, the Kyoto Prefecture link and the Uji-sourced matcha, the daily 10:30 to 20:30 café gives provenance-minded drinkers a reason to seek it out over the city's many matcha spots.
