Stands out among the rest - Edit
What a pleasant surprise this place was. Probably the healthiest meal I've eaten in a restaurant, but shockingly tasty at the same time. One of those rare places that could even satisfy hardcore carnivores.

Great find in Chiang Mai - Edit
It's not generally our style to eat Western food whilst in Asia but Cafe Compassion sounded interesting and after a month in Thailand we were after a bit of a break from the usual tom yums, so we landed here one night.
Read moreAnd what a lovely find! The vibe is really chic and chilled at the same time. The location is a bit out of the way so probably need a taxi to get there, but this also means it feels a bit secluded and special. The people who run it (they are not Thai - British, judging by the accent) are really nice and accommodating too. Great for a chat and very knowledgable about food and health, which is obvious from the food.
In addition to a vege burger we ended up trying a raw pad thai from the specials menu and wow, it was great! Best raw pad thai we've tried to date.
Vegans should be a bit careful, they do use some butter and milk etc. Certainly worth checking out though. Wish we had time to go back again - next time for sure.
Pros: chic vibe, friendly service, great food
Cons: a bit out of the way, menu's not huge

A Perfect Place for the Makings of a Happy Belly - Edit
I just recently went to Cafe Compassion for a friends B-day party and was highly impressed by the delicious food, quenching Tamarind soda elixir ( virgin )and the most divine choco brownie that I have bitten into... the atmosphere is sleek and inviting with an alfresco dining - go and try it out yourself and indulge in the goodness!!! YummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmErrrrrrrrrrrs!!!
