Old-School Charm and Consistent Breakfast Quality

Hia Tai Kee offers a nostalgic breakfast experience with a simple but well-executed menu. The signature dishes, like the Kai-Kra-Ta with baguette sandwich, receive high praise for their consistency and perfect cooking, particularly the eggs. The setting takes you back to Bangkok's 50s-60s, providing a unique ambiance that many appreciate. While the coffee might not be as impressive, the overall experience and old-school charm make it a memorable spot for brunch. Some feel the prices are high for the quality, but the historical vibe and consistent food keep customers coming back.

A visit to Hia Tai Kee feels like stepping into Bangkok's 50s-60s. The food is good but a bit pricey for what you get. The signature omelette with minced meat and little baguette is unique yet familiar. Overall, it’s a great spot for a nostalgic morning meal.

Hia Tai Kee takes you back in time with its old-school charm and simple breakfast offerings. The signature Kai-Kra-Ta with a baguette sandwich is cooked to perfection every time, though the coffee could use some improvement. The vibe is nostalgic and worth the experience.

This quaint spot in Chinatown offers a blast from the past with its open facade and classic breakfast sets. While the Set 1 was decent, it didn't blow me away. I can't wait to return and try other sets. The iced Thai coffee is a must-try, though!

One of the antique breakfast restaurants in the area.

The old-school vibe of Hia Tai Kee is its best feature. The egg and bread breakfast is consistently well-cooked, with runny eggs and perfectly toasted baguettes. However, the coffee was a bit of a letdown. Still, it's a charming place to start your day.

Popular local spot for tea, coffee, and breakfast. Great place to sit and watch the city come alive.
