This thing to do in Bangkok with kids lets little witches and wizards step into a Harry Potter-inspired setting.
You don’t need to travel all the way to the Warner Bros. Studio Tour London to experience the wizarding world. Right here in Bangkok, Starbucks Thailand presents this thing to do in Bangkok with kids that bring the magic closer with themed stores that feel straight out of Harry Potter.
Running until 7 April at Starbucks Siam Square One Flagship, Starbucks Reserve at Central World, One Bangkok and IconSiam, these special locations are decked out with Harry Potter-inspired decorations.
Beyond the photo ops, you’ll find themed drinks, desserts and merchandise to browse and every purchase comes with a free sticker sheet.
Unfortunately, during my visit to Starbucks Reserve at Central World, most of the special menu items and merchandise were already sold out. Drinks and desserts are still available at other branches across Thailand, but the full Harry Potter-themed experience is only at these four locations.
Even without all the merchandise, the decorations alone make it worth visiting, especially now, as HBO has just released a teaser for the upcoming Harry Potter series.
What is the Starbucks x Harry Potter experience?
It’s a limited-time collaboration that transforms selected Starbucks stores into a mini wizarding world, complete with themed decorations, interactive photo spots and a menu inspired by the magical world of Harry Potter.
The experience includes special drinks and desserts from the Honeydukes Series. Highlights include Honeydukes Bursting Bonbons Frozen Tea, a citrusy iced drink with popping bubble bursts, along with sweet treats such as rainbow-layered Honeydukes Cake topped with sprinkles and a chocolate logo.
There is also a Harry Potter-themed merchandise collection featuring over 20 items, including tumblers, mugs and lifestyle accessories inspired by Hogwarts houses, with details like colour-changing designs and magical icons such as wands and owls.
Some branches may run out of certain menu items and merchandise, so it’s worth checking with other locations or visiting early if there’s something specific you’re after.
Inside the experience: what you can expect
Here are some of the most kid friendly highlights.
Interactive photo spots
The Platform 9¾ setup is a highlight. You can pose with a luggage trolley and recreate the iconic moment of heading into Hogwarts.
Hogwarts house banners
Hogwarts house banners from Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Slytherin let you find your house, pick your side and snap a photo to prove it.
Magical treats and collectibles
You’ll find themed drinks and desserts from the Honeydukes Series, along with Harry Potter x Starbucks merchandise. Just make sure to check availability at the branch you’re visiting, as some items may be sold out.
