Riverside luxury shopping mall ICONSIAM has temporarily ceased operation due to the government's measure to curb the coronavirus pandemic. But it doesn't stop hyped Kyoto-born coffee specialist %Arabica to get ready for the long-anticipated opening.
The Facebook page of %Arabica has recently unveiled the first look of its Bangkok outpost. Located on the first floor of the ICONSIAM, Bangkok's first %Arabica features the iconic white-washed interior with the centerpiece coffee bar equipped with sleek roasting machines. We guarantee it's going to be one of ICONSIAM's most Instagrammable spots once the shopping mall opens.
In September of 2014, % Arabica found its first home in Kyoto, Japan. Now, the minimalistic and extremely Instagram-ready coffee shop is finding its way across the globe. Founder Kenneth Shoji reflects his love for coffee through heavy investment in specialty coffee, from possessing a coffee farm in Hawaii to becoming the exporter of Japanese coffee roaster Tornado King. % Arabica-crafted brews are praised for high attention to detail thanks to the high-quality beans sourced from around the world and the state-of-the-art roasting machines.
%Arabica has not revealed the official opening date of the Bangkok outpost. We will keep you in the loop with more updates.
