About The Story 106 Co-Working Space &Cafe

The Story 106 Co-Working Space &Cafe sits along Tha Phae Road, placing it right between Chiang Mai’s Old City and Chang Moi corridor. This is one of the most practical locations for remote workers who want both accessibility and walkability. Unlike Nimman, which is dense and competitive, this area offers a more balanced environment where cafes can still support longer sessions without constant seating pressure. The co-working aspect of this venue further positions it as a work-first cafe rather than a casual stop.

This location benefits from a steady but controlled flow of traffic. Morning and early afternoon provide the most stable conditions for long sessions, with fewer interruptions and more consistent seating. Compared to Nimman cafes, table turnover is slower and noise levels are more manageable. However, as a hybrid co-working and cafe space, it can still fill with long-stay users, meaning availability depends more on duration than pure crowd size. The environment is better suited for structured work, reading, and focused sessions rather than quick turnover visits.

Why visit

• Slower table turnover than Nimman cafes means you can hold a seat comfortably for a full working day
• Morning and early afternoon hours offer the most consistent quiet, ideal for focused deep-work sessions

• Controlled foot traffic keeps noise levels noticeably lower than busier co-working spots in the Nimman area
