Halal Restaurant in Chachoengsao- Doo Pla Cafe

Doo Pla - literally means look (at) fish. We stumbled upon this cafe on our project to look into halal destinations beyond Bangkok. Located about 61km away from central Bangkok, Doo Pla is located in the Bang Nam Sour district of Chachoengsao Province. The area surrounding the cafe is largely rural and agricultural. Which means that along your drive, you would be able to see fields upon fields of paddy and other agricultural produce.

Doo Pla sits on a plot of 40 rai of land which is still being developed to unlock its potential. Being opened quite recently at the beginning of 2020, there is still some work to do on this land but one could see that it is being done with enthusiasm.

When the development is done, visitors would be able to enjoy a variety of activity such as fish feeding, animal petting zoo, looking at organic farm produce, children activities, and just relaxing while enjoying the break away from Bangkok hustle.

On this trip, we did not have the opportunity to taste the hot food menu served at the cafe. Unfortunately Doo Pla was scheduled in our desert stop, just after breakfast and before our late lunch.




To our surprise, the cake served in this cafe is very tasty. It was the first time to taste a Layered Crepe and Cream Strawberry Cake. The texture was both unfamiliar but at the same time intriguing. The level of sweetness of the cake was just nice, and when paired with the strawberry sauce, made it perfect. The cake was accompanied by a cup of iced coffee and lemon drink.

We look forward to coming here again in a few months and are excited to see how the development works turn out. When completed, this cafe would be an ideal destination for families with kids who look to introduce nature to their children- without having to travel too far beyond the boundaries of Bangkok.
