Lovely & Cozy
“Hern” means “house” or “home” with an accent in the Tai Yai language. It’s a nice place with a pleasant design overall. It is neither expensive nor cheap if you have not compared it with other options.
In 2024, the Thai name was a bit changed by adding more silent consonants and letters. But for English, it’s still the same.
Originate from the zero
Originally, she had first renovated an old wooden house on the main road into a coffee shop style, and steaks of different kinds were the special dish.
After her lease expired, she moved to open her own home with a passion for and love for cooking.
Who was created?
The owner is an attractive local girl. She is so cute and a native of Mae Hong Son, plus she graduated with a bachelor’s degree from Chiang Mai.
She also uses her ideas to decorate the shop and garden. Her shop has become famous among both locals and visitors.

Which chooses to sit?
The restaurant is divided into 2 zones: the air-conditioned room and the open hall without air-conditioning. Set up retro wooden tables and armchairs like antique furniture. The number of seats and layout vary in each corner.
You may have to choose from a favorite corner or the number of groups. Usually, if it’s an air-conditioned room, I’ll choose to sit by the window, or if it’s an open-air room, I’ll choose to sit on a sofa by the walkway.
If it’s a tour group, I’ll choose the front of the shop or a large sofa. The staff will be more convenient to service. As for Thais, they’ll walk into the air-conditioned room first.
In addition, I come at a different time than usual, around 1-2 pm; that’s perfect. It feels airy and shady in the garden. This restaurant has a free form, which I feel is casual.
How to get there
The location is quite a tricky place to find and reach. It’s quite difficult to search on Google. But their local customers know that the way to get there is through between the new ring road to the airport and a minor road that runs down from the lake.
Location
Hern Home is located behind the Toyota car service center. The street name on the map is Samphanthawong [sam-pan-tha-wong]. It connects to Chamnan Sathit Road, which can be used as a shortcut to Nong Chong Kham.
It is also close to Bypass Road 5016, which avoids the city to the airport, and has some cozy accommodations along this road.
If you stay near this area, it is very convenient. You can walk within a 15-minute radius. And on the way back, it will be healthy when you are full.
The accommodations mentioned are Rimtarn Resort and Jeerang Countryside Resort, or you can search for accommodations from my article on A cozy stay in Mae Hong Son.
And of course, you might eat a big meal here, and in the meantime, think of Little Good Things, a cafe serving drinks and a bakery from 10 am to 4 pm only [open Wed-Sun].
And what about my preference?
I like comfy leather chairs outdoors and drinking more than dining, even though it’s tasty food.
The price is the same, and the quality is satisfactory. Let’s try and add 1 meal to your trip planner.
I often come out to eat here when working in Mae Hong Son, and the place looks a bit finer than most other places up the town.
There are fewer options for various foods and drinks in Mae Hong Son. I highly recommend this place for lunch and dinner here.
Actually, I wanted to play guitar here. Her restaurant should have live music. But it may be the place for a quiet romantic dinner.
