Delish Eats: Honeyful Cafe’s Newly Renovated Store and Exciting New Menu
Restaurant Story
Honeyful Cafe is a delightful honey-centric establishment that specializes in monofloral honey and honey-infused drinks, desserts, and dishes. The owner, Nuttawan “Yui” Supapong, is dedicated to highlighting the benefits of honey by providing quality varieties sourced locally within Thailand and internationally from Australia and New Zealand, ensuring that they complement delicious meals. Yui’s dedication to ethical sourcing from conscientious beekeepers around the globe ensures that every drop of honey not only delights the palate but also enriches your dining experience with wholesome, healthy fare.
In June 2025, the cafe underwent a fresh makeover of its flagship store, incorporating hexagonal interiors that resemble a real honeycomb, including unique window frames and ceiling edges. Additionally, a new breakfast menu was introduced.
Honey is known for its medicinal properties and serves as a traditional remedy. It is also a versatile condiment in both sweet and savory dishes, featuring as a key or subtle ingredient in various beverages and meals. Each variety, drawn from distinct origins and different bees, brings its own personality to the table. With gut-friendly properties and heart health benefits, honey stands as a sophisticated alternative to conventional sugars.
Honeyful Cafe is the perfect spot to enjoy a healthy breakfast or brunch, artfully incorporating artisanal honey in creative ways within a cozy and bright atmosphere. Every drink and dish here incorporates honey as an essential ingredient.
Owner Story
Nuttawan “Yui” Supapong founded her establishment in 2019, driven by her passion for innovating Bangkok’s culinary scene. After graduating from UC Berkeley with a degree in chemical engineering and gaining experience through culinary school, Yui’s curiosity for gastronomy took root long before — in the culturally rich Bay Area, where she spent six formative years.
Her fascination with honey led her to research its chemical compounds, explore harvesting methods, and source the finest varieties. After extensive research and development, she finally opened her dream project, a space dedicated to honey. Recognizing the absence of a specialty honey shop in Bangkok, Yui created a honey-centric venue where this humble ingredient could take center stage.
To guarantee the utmost quality, Yui personally samples each varietal, ensuring the absence of pesticide residues and harmful chemicals that could undermine well-being.
"There aren't many professors in Thailand who conduct research on honey, local native bees, and bee behavior. So, we began working with one professor and were introduced to different suppliers who assisted us with our research program on how to harvest honey ethically. As a result, we have added several options for Thai honeys,” she suggested.
“Although these honeys are not cheaper than the ones we import from Australia, we want to continue encouraging local beekeepers and farmers to adopt this practice, as it is more sustainable for the environment," Yui informed.
Yui started incorporating honey into the menu in subtle ways. Initially, she focused on desserts, but after renovating last year, she decided to shift her focus more toward breakfast options.
“While I’m a dessert person, we would have honey in some form in the dessert. However, we never bake honey into cakes, as it doesn’t make sense. When exposed to high temperatures, honey loses its natural benefits and can prevent the cake from rising properly," she shared.
The new breakfast menu features healthy, honey-infused sweet and savory options such as Zesty Avocado with Fluffy Scrambled Eggs on Toast, Salmon Sourdough, pancakes, and Manuka Breakfast Bowls.
"My favorite item from the menu is the Manuka Breakfast Bowl, which is unique and hard to find elsewhere. It consists of pan-toasted oats, almond milk for a nutty flavor, manuka honey, and dried banana for added texture — a perfect mix of everything!” Yui expressed.
Yui suggested that while consumer behavior evolves over time, the classic pairing of honey with items such as pancakes, toast, and cereal remains a staple. She also emphasized techniques like fermentation, specifically by infusing honey with flavors such as yuzu and passion fruit, which adds a floral complexity and depth of flavor that can surpass that of fresh fruits. Additionally, Yui has personally sourced tea and carefully curated pairings with various desserts.

What Did We Order
We started off by sipping the Iced Manuka Latte (THB175), which features medium roast coffee with milk and Manuka honey. This drink offers a unique caramel-like sweetness and aroma, combining the richness of the coffee with the smooth, sweet, and slightly caramel notes of Manuka honey. Additionally, there are options for almond milk and oat milk.
Next, we indulged in the Buttermilk Pancakes with Honeyful Honey Butter (THB290). These pancakes are the epitome of golden, fluffy, and moist perfection. The floral and woody notes in Honeyful Honey truly enhance the flavor of the pancakes, earning them extra golden points. Topped with strawberries and blueberries, this dish makes for a refreshing and delightful breakfast or brunch option.
For desserts, we indulged in Coco & Co. (THB240), which has finally made a comeback on the menu after a long absence. This dish is a modern take on the beloved Thai dessert "bua loi" (Thai rice balls in coconut milk) and features three different flavors of bua loi.
The sweet potato bua loi, infused with honey, has emerged as a crowd favorite for all the right reasons. Its delicate floral notes and lingering fragrance create an exquisite bite. In contrast, the tao bua loi filled with coconut blossom honey presents an unparalleled flavor experience. Its luxurious buttery finish, accentuated by the coconut aroma of the honey, delivers a delightful and chewy indulgence. The newest addition, the pumpkin bua loi filled with ginger honey, truly amazes with its intriguing combination. It’s like indulging in ginger candy in a velvety, liquid form.
You can easily substitute dairy milk with almond milk, fresh ginger tea, or even houjicha tea as the base for your soup. Whether you prefer it hot or cold, sweet or unsweetened, there are numerous ways to enjoy these options. Their house-made almond milk boasts a flavor profile reminiscent of coconut milk, yet it is notably lighter in consistency. A particular dish that has captured the admiration of international visitors is a contemporary local dessert, artfully showcasing an array of exquisite honey varieties.
What We Liked and What We Didn’t Like
The Iced Manuka Latte is a perfect choice for coffee lovers, as it balances bold espresso with the rich, earthy floral sweetness of Manuka honey. Its creamy texture and perfectly calibrated sweetness make it an excellent, healthier alternative.
The Buttermilk Pancakes with Honeyful Honey Butter are a delight, especially for those who enjoy a sweet brunch. The ooey-gooey comfort of these pancakes really warms the heart.
Giving the classic Thai-Chinese dessert, Bua Loi Nam King, a creative twist is a game-changer. Savor this sweet dish that offers a multitude of flavors in a healthier light. There are three different flavors, each surprising you with its unique taste. This dessert is quite a rare find, especially with the addition of coconut blossom honey.
While there are many creative dishes, the selection of savory options is somewhat limited.
What You Should Order
The Iced Manuka Latte is a must-try for all coffee lovers, and you won’t be disappointed. If you're in the mood for something a bit more adventurous, give Coco & Co. a whirl. Even if you don’t normally gravitate toward coconut, the flavor profile is sure to surprise and delight your taste buds. It’s the perfect choice for those seeking a refreshingly unique experience.
The Manuka Breakfast Bowl (THB295) is another fantastic breakfast option that is both humble and delicious. And if your palate craves something sweet, don't miss the Yuzu Cheesecake (THB180 per slice). This airy and fluffy dessert melds the bright notes of yuzu with the delicate sweetness of orange blossom honey.
