"Best specialty coffee on Koh Samui. Pau roasts his own Thai highland beans and you can really taste the difference. The flat white is smooth, perfectly pulled, and the vibe is super chill."

"Proper coffee for true coffee lovers. Great atmosphere, lovely family running it, and the coconut affogato is a must-try. 10/10."

From farm to cup

The Roastery

Every bag of coffee sold at PauPau starts its journey in the highland farms of Thailand. We work directly with regional growers to select Arabica beans that meet our standards — then bring them to Koh Samui to roast in-house.

Small-batch roasting means we control every step: the temperature, the timing, the profile. The result is coffee that's fresh, traceable, and honest.
