Termtem Coffee × AQUA LAB: A Relaxing Aquarium Café in the Phra Khanong Area

Peace is always beautiful.

The Thai name of this café is “เติมเต็มคาเฟ่” (Termtem Café), which truly lives up to its name ,it really does “fill you up” in every sense. From the outside, you can already see a large aquarium filled with many small fish swimming gracefully in a beautifully arranged aquatic garden. The decorations inside the tank are thoughtfully placed to be soothing to the eyes, making it a perfect spot to sit, work, and relax while watching the fish. Just the aquarium at the front is already this beautiful, making us want to explore the rest of the aquariums inside even more!

A relaxed mindset can carry you through anything.

The interior design of Termtem Café mainly uses black tones, paired with warm lighting to highlight the aquariums. This color scheme is both stylish and well-balanced. As for the seating, there are various styles available. There’s a bar-style seating area for solo customers, and don’t worry you won’t miss out on the fish view because each bar seat comes with its own personal aquarium!. For groups, there are larger tables with big side-view aquariums that are perfect for relaxing and taking stunning photos. This setup really allows guests to unwind and enjoy watching a wide variety of fish, both freshwater and saltwater species.

Stressed is desserts spelled backwards.

When it comes to drinks and desserts, the café offers both coffee and non-coffee options. On the day we visited, the bakery selection was quite limited, but there were still some cakes available. We ordered two drinks. First, an unsweetened Americano. They allow you to choose your preferred roast level, from dark to light. I went with a medium roast, which had a pleasant bitterness that is very enjoyable. The second drink was a lightly sweetened matcha latte, which was perfectly balanced and just how I like it slightly bitter and not too sweet. We also ordered a plain croissant, which was served warm. The taste was decent!

How to reach the Termtem cafe.

Getting to Termtem Café is very convenient. You can either take the BTS or drive. No need to worry about parking, as the café is located inside the Summer Hill complex in Phra Khanong, right next to the BTS Phra Khanong station. The café is on the second floor of the complex. If you’re driving, just let the staff know you’re visiting the café, and they’ll give you a parking ticket. You can validate this ticket on the first floor using your café receipt for two hours of free parking.

Lastly, if you’re looking for a calm, private space to work, I highly recommend Termtem Café. It’s easily accessible, offers a full menu of drinks and pastries, and most importantly, has an incredibly peaceful and refreshing atmosphere. It’s also a great place for dates or catching up with friends with plenty of beautiful photo spots too!

That’s all for today’s review. 🙂
