Open House at Central Embassy

Central Embassy is a luxury mall in Ploenchit but don’t let the gilded exterior disguise the warmth of Open House, a book-forward ‘library’ that’s very much inside it.

The architecture is ambitious: soaring shelving, a mezzanine level, reading nooks throughout. On the sixth floor, HARDCOVER The Art Book Shop carries art, design and photography titles. While the space is expansive, you can still find a book cafe vibe led bt coffee anchor, Coffeeology – a specialist hand drip bar. But if slowbars aren’t your vibe, cafes across the same floor will happily deliver to wherever you are sitting among the shelves. Order a drink, keep your window seat warm and treat the flat white as table rent.

6/F, Central Embassy, Ploenchit Rd. Open daily 10am-10pm
