PARADAi
939 Rama I Rd, Wang Mai, Pathum Wan, Bangkok 10330
Lead with the iced chocolate double dark. The ฿180 signature drink is what most people order first, and the bon bon selection lets you mix and match five distinct flavors for ฿300. If you want Thai cacao worked by Thai hands in a café format, this is the most direct path in central Bangkok.
You walk into Room 303 and the counter sits directly ahead. The café opened as PARADAi's second location after the original 2018 flagship in Bangkok's old town closed, and the BACC setup keeps the focus tight on what the brand does best: single-origin Thai chocolate worked into drinks, bars, and bon bons.
The iced chocolate double dark anchors the drinks menu at ฿180. Specialty coffee and tea fill out the rest, but the chocolate is the reason the room exists. The bon bons run ฿300 for a mix-and-match set of five flavors, each one built from cacao PARADAi sources directly from Thai smallholders rather than importing beans. The supply chain runs through Chantaburi, Phuket, and farms in Nakhon Si Thammarat, and the cost of buying local is higher than importing, but the model keeps Thai cacao in Thai hands and funds a circular agricultural economy that most international bean-to-bar operations bypass entirely.
The café operates Tuesday through Sunday, 10AM to 8PM. Closed Monday. The BACC third-floor location means you enter through the main building and take the escalator or elevator up; the room shares the floor with rotating gallery exhibitions and a handful of other specialty tenants. Street parking near National Stadium BTS is limited, so most visitors arrive on foot from the station.
The seating area is small. If you want to sit and work, come mid-afternoon on a weekday when foot traffic from the galleries is lighter. Weekends compress the available seating with walk-in chocolate buyers and gallery visitors taking a break between exhibitions.
