Melt In Your Mouth

Set on the banks of the Kok River in Chiang Rai’s Ko Loi area, Melt In Your Mouth is the city’s go‑to for cakes and slow afternoons. Think a charming garden, shady trees, and a bright, homey dining room where plates drift past with the smell of butter and espresso. Grab a river‑facing table around golden hour and you’ll see why locals bring visiting friends here. The kitchen leans comfort over fuss: all‑day brunch plates, thin‑crust pizzas, big burgers, and Thai family favorites. Save room for desserts—the name isn’t marketing fluff. Regulars point to the mixed berry crumble with ice cream (฿185), caramel French toast (฿250), and silky panna cotta (฿125). Portions are generous; two people can split a main and a sweet and leave happy. Coffee is taken seriously, and there’s tea and a short wine list for lazy sunsets. It’s an easy 5‑minute hop from the Night Bazaar area; aim for Ko Loi, just upriver from The Legend resort. Weekends get busy with Chiang Rai families and Bangkok staycationers, so come early for the river deck. Daily 9am–8pm; last orders land before the kitchen winds down.
