Why go, and how to do it well
Tucked away in the southern part of Koh Chang, Altitude 79 Coffee Shop has earned a strong reputation among both locals and travelers looking for a relaxed spot to enjoy a quality coffee without stretching their budget. The cafe draws a loyal following, reflecting consistent quality and a welcoming atmosphere that suits the laid-back pace of island life.
Visitors can expect a casual, unhurried setting well suited to recharging between beach days or exploring the quieter southern end of the island. The budget-friendly price point makes it an accessible stop for travelers of all kinds, and the coffee-focused menu provides a straightforward but satisfying experience. The relaxed surroundings and friendly service appear to be key draws based on the cafe's strong community following.
On a practical note, Altitude 79 is open every day of the week from 11:00am to 5:00pm, so it is best suited as a mid-morning or afternoon visit rather than an early breakfast stop. Wednesday is the only day the cafe is closed, making it a reliable option for most of the week. Travelers staying in or passing through the Koh Chang Tai area will find it a convenient and worthwhile stop. Checking the cafe's Facebook page before visiting is recommended for any updates on hours or seasonal closures.

Tips for Visiting Restaurants & Food
Follow the Crowds
The busiest street stalls are almost always the best — high turnover means fresh ingredients and a recipe that locals vouch for. An empty restaurant at dinner time is a red flag.
Ice Is Safe
Factory-made tube or cylinder ice (used in virtually all restaurants and stalls) is made from purified water and is safe to consume. You don't need to skip the iced Thai tea.
Use Grab for Delivery
The Grab app works for food delivery across Thailand, letting you order from street stalls and restaurants alike. It's invaluable on rainy days or when you want to eat in your hotel.
