Phuket Restaurants Guide by Beaches and Towns

Phuket restaurants can keep a food writer busy forever. In our many years here, we tried countless ones. Thailand is blessed with great cuisine and endless food choices from around the country. In recent years, international cuisine has also flourished around the island as a great addition to Thai food.

Today, we list all the best restaurants we tried in Phuket and sorted them by beaches and town to help you plan your trip from the most delicious local Thai restaurants hidden in the mangrove to the most romantic, trendy beachfront and the trendy cuisine worthy of a Phuket Michelin Guide. We have already sorted some of our favourites in previous pages, but here we list all the restaurants we have ever written about, sorted alphabetically into two groups: Trendy and Locals. If they are here, it’s because, in our opinion, they deserve to be talked about. This page has more than 50 Phuket restaurants! So click on Read More to see them all!
