Vieng Joom On is one of my favourite places to bring visitors when they come to Chiang Mai. Literally, Vieng Joom On means “pink city” …and yes, it’s a pink themed tea house / tea shop. Guys, don’t worry, other than the bright pink main building, the rest of the tea house isn’t totally pink! There is also a beautiful garden terrace out the back where customers can relax, sip tea, have snacks and chat with friends.
There is a huge selection of tea to choose from - various Chinese teas, masala, chai, rooibos, fruit teas, as well as Vieng Joom On’s own blends. They also serve various snacks, sandwiches and desserts such as Cherry Panna Cotta, scones and High-tea set.
If you happen to like any of the teas offered and want to take some home, you’ll be able to buy them from the gorgeously decorated tea shop. Warning - it’s not cheap - but the packaging is so beautiful and the tea very high quality.
Highly recommended for tea lovers.

Aaaahh! Good memories! I had such a great time at this establishment - the tea, the ambience, the service, the large and very interesting variety of teas - definitely worth a visit!
