Dasa Book Cafe

Earning its reputation through being consistently excellent for decades, three warm, cluttered floors between Sois 26 and 28 on Sukhumvit hold over 18,000 secondhand titles in English, French and German. The online catalogue updates daily. The staff know books – regulars describe them as genuinely useful and, on occasion, hilarious when they disappear down a rabbit hole with you. The pricing is honest and you can even trade in your own titles before browsing for a well-read replacement. 

The coffee options are a little small, with mostly cold caffeinated drinks and sodas that can be ordered at the cashier and consumed at whatever corner of the shelf you've claimed.

714/4 Sukhumvit Rd, between sois 26 and 28. Open daily 10am-8pm
