    It would have been a 5/5 except they don’t accept credit cards. Surely when you serve oysters and wine you except people to run up a decent bill … who carries cash anymore anyways?? Food was good.had to keep yelling to get service as staff were too busy gossip behind the counter to be actively serving customers. When we left I saw a guy sitting outside with a menu infront of him looking bored .. waiting for staff.

    Great choice if you want a classic euro-style sandwich or baguette. Everything felt fresh and tasted great. Reasonable prices, great location, good portions, and a great plating style. Extra fruits included. The baguette menu is between 140b-190b

    What a find! So many years in Chiang Mai and only now do I find the Happy Frog. Friendly staff, dining inside and out, with a large selection of hams, cheeses, breads, oysters, wines, coffee and more. Very well laid out with plenty of wall decorations creating a good dining atmosphere. I only had a coffee and toasted sandwich this time, but will be back soon. What really made the sandwich was the selection of titbits on the plate with it. Good service, large menu, free wi-fi and clean toilets.

    A really good sandwich at the right price. It was fairly no-frills, which was nice. The sandwich didn’t try too hard. I had a simple smoked chicken, coiled egg, lettuce, and tomato sandwich on a baguette. Decent size as well for 169 baht. Chill atmosphere and a large menu, they also serve cake and ice cream I believe.

    A true gem for wine & charcuterie lovers! Delicious, imported cheeses. I got charcuterie with red wine! They have a very large menu & relaxed ambiance. I’m excited to try the rosemary bread & goat cheese next time!

    Best place in Chiang Mai bar none if you want fresh cheese 🧀 cold cuts, oysters. Very fresh bread rolls. Wine 🍷 Drop by to view their amazing range of cheeses and meats. You won't be disappointed. Sadly they've had a major price rise and have become an Air Asia budget business. You now pay far more than what you used to, for far less and pay for what options you want making what you used have to have, increase 50% It's no longer a "value for money" recommendation. However the quality is still there. UPDATE JUNE 2023 The restaurant has changed both its internal style as well as their menu to about 50% Thai due to demand to cater for all clientele. So, you can still get excellent cold cuts and panini, but just not as many as before. You can now choose from a selection of local Thai food as well.

    Food is delicious and nice service. The bread choices are great. The baguette with mozzarella and tomato and the mozzarella prosciutto panini were both amazing. They have a large menu with a lot of options. The grilled cheese wasn’t as good, the bread was not crunchy and tasted a little sweet but the dipping Tabasco sauce was nice. Thank you for a great meal 😋

    Fabulous little deli. I wasn't expecting too much, just a quick bite to eat. Instead got a great BLT European style. A very nice owner (?) staff. An incredible deli selection of meats and cheeses.

    Well buddy of mine suggested this restaurant so I met him for coffee and was amazed at the selection of cold cuts and cheeses and unfortunately I had no time but I will definitely be back and it will be on my bucket list for the next trip.

    I'm so glad we stumbled upon this wonderful restaurant. As well as Thai food and other sundries, you can get a good red wine and a cheese platter with some delicious brie and grapes and things, which is what we ordered because we'd already eaten. I had a detox fusion drink of grape, cucumber and pineapple which seemed to really help my tummy troubles. A lovely place to chill and people watch.

The restaurant is decorated by the someone with style ( very inviting) I will return to try more from the delicious menu. The location was easy to find and the service was outstanding . See you there!!!

  • 4/5 Florian K. 4 years ago on Google
    New restaurant with quality ingredients but the staff clearly doesn't understand their own menu AT ALL and everything is still very inconsistent. I'm sure it will improve though.

  • 5/5 Alan T. 2 years ago on Google
    Good venue with some tasty bites to eat. Very nicely presented as well. Good range of tea, coffee ,wines and beers . The cheese selection looks ever so tempting, eat in or buy from deli counter. Well worth calling in.

    (Translated by Google) We got a really great and delicious cheese platter here. The baguette was fresh and crispy. Really great and for us long-term travelers a great Christmas event. Thanks Happy Frog! The service was also impeccable. Only the coffee [cappuccino] could be a little better in quality. (Original) Wir haben hier eine wirklich tolle und sehr leckere Käseplatte bekommen. Das Baguette dazu war frisch und knusprig. Wirklich klasse und für uns Langzeitreisende ein tolles Weihnachtsevent. Danke Happy Frog! Der Service war ebenfalls tadellos. Einzig der Kaffee [Cappuccino] könnte qualitativ etwas besser sein.

    Huge selection of cheese and salamis, reasonably priced . Great menu, fabulous presentation and service. The platters are fantastic value great for parties

  • 3/5 David W. 2 years ago on Google
    Store​ looks​ amazing, lots​ of​ salted​ Meats, olive​s, and​ cheeses I had the German frog and egg salad. Neither one was a taste​ to my liking.​ it took them 30 minutes to make the sandwich and I was the only customer in the restaurant. The young boy brought the sandwich out two times and the owner's wife sent it back to the kitchen because the cheese was not even melted:(

    If you are a cheese lover , please don’t miss it. I never seen the restaurant like this before in Chiangmai. I was a couple days ago. It’s my first time. The food is delicious, wine is perfect. Recommended.

  • 5/5 Alan P. 2 years ago on Google
    Like a deli-restaurant. Friendly service with seating inside and out. Features ham cheese and coffee.

  • 5/5 Paul T. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing place that is like a deli and restaurant as well. The baguettes and sandwiches are fantastic. Menu has a vast array of platters and cold cuts. I would only imagine they are also fantastic as well. It is quite rare to find a place of such high quality in Thailand when it comes to authentic European food.

  • 5/5 Per S. 2 years ago on Google
    Huge selection of imported cheese and salami. Absolutely the best sandwich place in Chiang Mai. Clean and beautifully decorated dishes. Great place to order a cheese tray.

  • 4/5 David M. 1 year ago on Google
    If you’re craving a meal of overflowing melted cheese, I highly recommend the traditional cheese toasted sandwich here. The bread is dipped in egg and fried which pushed it slightly over the edge for me in terms of being too rich but I devoured the entire thing all the same. It was a the snack that became a meal

  • 4/5 Ksenia K. 1 year ago on Google
    Great atmosphere as you can sit outside watching people and the market. Had a panini with parma ham and parmesan - I asked the waitress if the vegetables and sauce go by default, she nodded, and I got an empty panini with just ham and cheese - so if you want your sauce and veggies - specify and make the waitress repeat what she understood explicitly. Ham was way too salty and parmesan was barely noticeable, couldn't taste it really, bread was ok, but again not the best, so I'd say the ingredients are not top notch, but it was a decent 4. Could be better if it were done properly with all the ingredients inside. Baked potatoes were quite good, with garlic and rosemary and custom made sauce, though again it would be better if the slices were thinner. So, taking into account the price, might not be the best price to quality ratio, but still a rather decent spot if you know what and how to order.

    Nice enough Italian Restaurant. Service was shockingly bad. Had to ask for virtually everything. Decor was nice. Food was just above average. Price wasn't justified.

  • 5/5 Wim van L. 6 months ago on Google
    This is a must eat restaurant! Top quality! For breakfast, lunch and dinner. Unfortunately it doesn't say on the website that they also sell Thai food and Pizza, but they do. This was originally an Italian delicacy and still is. The owner sells and uses original products. In addition, delicious wine, etc. Give the Happy Frog a chance and you will definitely go back like us.

    Excellent Food

  • 3/5 Henrik 3 years ago on Google
    Ordered delivery from here and the baguette itself was very nice as other reviews have mentioned, but the filling was very minimal and it looked almost empty compared to the pictures I've seen from here. A few slices of cheese, some small patches of very thin cut ham, it wasn't even slices just kind of little rolled up balls of ham, a little bit of lettuce and I think a couple of grapes. The cheese and ham was clearly good quality and I'm very happy to pay for quality, but to be honest for thb265 for a sandwich (excl delivery fee), I was expecting a bit more than a pretty empty and sad looking baguette.

    The staff is very very friendly and can speak English quite well. The sandwiches are very good with a nice little salad to go with. They present the food in a beautiful manner . I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a deli style sandwich or meat and cheese tray. Complete the meal with a nice glass of wine, beer,or coffee. I have returned to this great place and now they have expanded to twice the size.what a great remodel and now have even more great foods.

    It's so difficult to find a good sandwich like you can back home. The Happy Frog certainly qualifies as a great sandwich shop, with fresh-cut deli meats and cheeses on great quality bread choices. Great presentation; great environment; friendly service! A must visit for the sandwich enthusiast.

  • 5/5 stefano de g. 4 years ago on Google
    I have been looking at this corner side shop for a while I had the chance to stop by the other night the first thing that I notice is their huge Gelato cabinet lay outside of the entrance of the restaurant and as soon you walk in to the very clean and tide place you are amazed by the second showcase of French and Italian cheeses and some of Northern Europe cheese as well that indicates you that you just landed on the perfect place ( I am my self a cheese lover and gelato Maker ) , immediately great by the staff and the Owner Olaf from Germany and invite to seat with him and review his great project and successfull experience in F&B scenery . I was truly surprise how many people love cheese in chiangmai since Olaf plan to extend to two large fridge cabinet showcase for the cheese , speciality are different plate of cold cuts and cheese , wine and different gourmet sandwiches made with freshly baked baguette and ciabatta breads. Great atmosphere and great people , definable going back for more .
