🪄🪵 Pettit Peyton – Where Curry Meets Character.
Tucked on a quiet corner of Songwat Road, Pettit Peyton is part restaurant, part hostel, and entirely cinematic. It’s not the kind of place you stumble upon — it’s the kind of place that finds you when you need it most.
🖼️ What Drew Us In?
It wasn’t the scent of curry (though that would’ve been enough). It was her — the emblem. A beautifully drawn lady — part Mary Poppins, part café goddess — sitting elegantly in a classic chair, crossed legs, well-dressed, a serene cat on her lap. In one hand? A wooden ladle. Below her? A message like a blessing:
“Great Journeys Should Be Rewarded by Good Food.”
A quiet manifesto. A promise kept.
🍛 What We Ordered:
We stayed local, soulful, and satisfying: • 🔴 Red Curry – warm, earthy, slightly sweet, with just the right heat • 🟢 Green Curry – bold, herbaceous, and deeply aromatic
Both arrived quickly, steaming and heartfelt. Inexpensive, yes. But more than that — the food had integrity.
🛎️ Service:
Gentle, attentive, and kind. You get the sense they know you’re a traveler — and they’re not here to impress, just to nourish.
🪑 The Space:
The aesthetics struck a beautiful balance: • Think European daydream meets Old Spanish Era nostalgia • Worn wooden tables with character • Faded glamour, golden-hour light, and timeless textures
It’s a space that doesn’t try to be trendy. It just is. And that’s its super power❤️

Read moreVintage style coffee shop near Wat Saket, where’s owner introduced their theme as traveloque cafe blending British Victorian and Thai colonial style, and it’s part of the beautiful ‘Niras Bankoc Cultural Hostel’.
It has an interesting and convenient location. it’s situated not only near Wat Saket, but strategically right near part of old external city moat of Rattanakosin Island (aka old capital of Bangkok), just right next to a historical bridge, and sits at the start of Bamrung Mueang Road into the Island where you can walk direct to Sao Chingcha and eventually Wat Pra Keaw, Grand Palace.
Also, it’s just a few walks from the end of Canal Boat station near Saphan Phanfa. Famous Ran Jay Fai and some other local foods are nearby too.
The beautiful vintage setting pretty stands out from neighborhood but also blends in well with the old town vibes.
The cafe offers wide option of coffee and snacks. It’s a good starting point, resting point or even your lodge when you are exploring...
Read moreI f'n loved this joint!! It was like going back to Saigon in the 50's during French occupation! I'm not saying that occupying a foreign land is in anyway good, but the French left behind some cool stuff. That being said, this wasn't Saigon, but it's easy to imagine it was!!
Decor was super cool, staff was amazing and the food was cheap, quick and delicious! A real surprise in the middle of a busy, touristless area. Check it out if you...
