Dots Coffee - the best coffee in Koh Phangan
Dots's coffee shop Tong Sale Is a cozy European-style place that you sometimes miss amid the abundance of Thai bamboo-concrete cafes and restaurants in Phangan. I mean, you miss the style. After a certain number of visits to Dots, you may get addicted to baked goods and perfectly brewed coffee. Indeed, in Thailand there are two well-known culinary problems for farangs who are accustomed to coffee shops: unimportant Thais make coffee and make very peculiar desserts that not everyone wants to try a second time. And only farangi businessmen who run such establishments help out with this. In this case, Dots were opened by Russian-speaking guys.

Dots Shop & Coffee
The cafe is located in a strategically advantageous place - on one of the central streets of Tong Saly, not far from the pier. Moreover, at the crossroads, diagonally from Dots, there is another well-known coffee establishment. Doppio Cafe, I also looked at competitors, but read the post on this link. Dots pleased with the interior design and brought it closer to certain European standards, as much as possible on the tropical island of Thailand. Large light space, natural neutral colors, chalk board, assorted furniture and large glass instead of the front wall - like a live screen. Most importantly, it is believed to have the best coffee on the island..
Apart from talking, music, food and a glass wall, you will not be allowed to do anything in Dots, so do not try to get your laptop to pass the hour to the ferry or work in comfortable conditions. Dots position themselves as a place for live communication, and not to sit with one cup for half a day. Some people like it, some don't. I did not know this (at that time there were no signs about this prohibition), so they asked me to remove the laptop. After that I asked them how it is, because there are a lot of people, and I myself, who like to sit in a cafe to work. They said that at first it was possible, but then they abandoned this venture, but perhaps later they will make the second floor just for such freelancers.
Prices for coffee are quite reasonable, but what is more important - the quality corresponds to the stated price. By the way, when I looked through the reviews of people on the network, this was the main theme of all comments: «coffee and pastries», «coffee and cheesecakes», «craft coffee», coffee, coffee, amazing coffee, great coffee, cool coffee shop in Phangan. Actually, that's what we are talking about - if you want a real coffee shop, you will find it in Dots. And, there is also a corner with homemade decorations of one of the islanders, which can be purchased at a reasonable price..
