The curiously named SS1254372 Cafe, with its hobbit-like windows, sits gracefully on a quiet street corner in the Nimman area. Originally the eatery for Gallery Seescape—an art space housed next door—it has grown beyond its gallery roots to become one of Chiang Mai’s top spots for a hearty brunch.
Rustic Charm Meets Industrial Quirk
Entering SS1254372 through the hanging foliage, on the side with the round windows and chunky wooden door, you half expect to meet a hobbit from the shire inside. Instead, you’re welcomed by friendly staff and a quirky industrial space with a rustic, eclectic flair. The long, narrow interior features whitewashed walls, a concrete floor, and an abundance of natural light streaming through floor-to-ceiling windows at one end. The round windows on one side add a playful touch, offering cosy spots where you can sit and watch the world go by outside.
Seating options range from intimate tables with folding chairs to a bench running along one wall, and a larger communal table towards one end. The pedestal tables stand out with their colourful mosaic tops, a creative nod to the gallery next door. At one end, a range of quirky designer art pieces are displayed for sale on the window shelving.
Outside, a charming courtyard and terrace wraps around the cafe. There’s further seating here, set beneath a canopy with hanging baskets. You can choose to sit overlooking the road or relax in the courtyard beside Gallery Seescape, where you can catch a glimpse of the rotating art exhibitions on display.
