カンチャナブリ市のベストカフェとリバーサイドバー

A front-row sunset perch, this teak-and-terracotta deck sits just upriver from the Bridge on the River Kwai, giving you postcard views as the sky turns apricot. Expect well-made classics (G&Ts, spritzes, sours) alongside local beers and a compact menu of Thai and Western bites. Service is polished yet relaxed, and there’s often soft background music instead of full-on bands, keeping the mood conversation-friendly. Hours typically run from late afternoon to around 10–11 pm, with later closings on busy weekends. Free on-site parking is available at the hotel, and walk-ins are welcome, though sunset reservations are wise. Vegetarian plates are easy to find; halal-conscious diners can stick to seafood and veg and confirm prep with staff.

One of the town’s most popular riverfront spots, Keeree Tara combines lantern-lit decks, live music, and a broad Thai menu with plenty of drinks. It’s lively but not rowdy, perfect for friends or couples who want views and a bit of buzz. Signature orders include grilled river prawns and spicy salads, best paired with a cold beer or a citrusy highball. Expect late hours most nights, often until around 10–11 pm, and a large on-site parking lot that makes self-driving easy. Vegetarians can choose stir-fried veg, tofu curries, and salads; halal-conscious visitors can focus on seafood and meat-free dishes. Sunset tables near the railing go first, so book ahead on weekends and holidays.

Tucked on a quieter stretch of river, this warmly lit deck leans romantic, with candles, fairy lights, and an easy-listening soundtrack. The bar mixes approachable cocktails and mocktails, and the kitchen covers Thai comfort dishes and a few Western crowd-pleasers, making it a safe bet for mixed groups. Hours usually run from lunchtime to about 11 pm, later on peak nights. On-site parking is available for resort guests and visitors, and staff can help arrange taxis after hours. Vegetarians have decent options including curries, salads, and stir-fries, and mocktails make non-drinkers feel included. It’s a relaxed alternative to the busier Bridge-side venues without giving up the sunset views.

This long-running Thai bakery-cafe nails the classics: fluffy cakes, pandan custards, and iced coffees that hit the spot before a day trip or after an early return from Erawan. Expect bright, air-conditioned seating and counter-service convenience. It’s an easy, budget-friendly stop for families or anyone in search of a sweet fix and a caffeine top-up. Hours often run from early morning to early evening (around 7 am–7 pm). There’s limited on-site parking and additional street spaces nearby. Vegetarians can pick from simple sandwiches, salads, and pastries, while halal-conscious travelers will find plenty of safe beverage and meat-free choices. Not riverside, but great for stocking up before sunset bar time.

A grand old-school resort with sprawling lawns and direct views of the Bridge, Felix’s riverside terrace is tailor-made for golden-hour photo ops and unhurried sundowners. The bar leans classic—think mojitos, martinis, and chilled wine—paired with bar snacks and a few mains. It’s family-friendly early in the evening, with a mellow shift to date-night vibes after dark. Typical hours are late afternoon to around 11 pm, and walk-ins are generally fine outside holiday weekends. On-site parking is plentiful. Vegetarians get salads and simple starters; non-drinkers can choose fresh juices and mocktails while soaking in the view. Dress is casual-smart, and mosquito spray is a good idea by the water.
