Best Thai Restaurants in Phuket

Rimpan Seafood Restaurant Phuket

    Rimpan Seafood is a small but great Phuket local restaurant hidden in plain sight in the north of Phuket Island, near the bridge that connects the island to the mainland. Thousand people drive past Rimpan each day without realising such a great place sits right here.

    Nui Beach in Phuket, Thailand

    Nui Beach ⛱️

      Nui Beach is an unusual beach in Phuket. It’s not the most magnificent beach as the sand is quite coarse, but people seem to love secret and hidden beaches.

      Go Benz Phuket restaurant

      Go Benz Phuket

        Go Benz Phuket has been one of Phuket’s most popular local restaurants for over 15 years. Go Benz served a relatively small choice of noodle soups and rice porridge, and by keeping it focused, they became very good at preparing them.

        Bangla Boxing Stadium Phuket

        Bangla Boxing Stadium

          Bangla Boxing Stadium is one of the two or three Muay Thai Stadiums in Patong Beach, one of the many ways you can entertain yourself after dinner.

          Sabai Corner Restaurant

          Sabai Corner Restaurant Phuket

            Sabai Corner is a beautiful Thai restaurant hidden in Phuket, not far from Kata Noi Beach. Only a few dedicated travellers will find it or try to find it. The food is good without being exceptional, but you will discover the magnificent panoramic view of the nearby sea.

            OTOP Market Patong, Phuket

            Patong Otop Shopping Paradise

              Initially designed as a local market, Patong Otop Shopping Paradise was created to promote the handicrafts and original products of each province of Thailand. Long ago, it became a night spot with those round bamboo bars that used to be so famous on Bangla Road twenty years ago.

              Khun Jeed Yod Pak Restaurant in Phuket Town

                Khun Jeed Yod Pak Restaurant is an institution in Phuket Town and one of the best local restaurants on the island. It is open as far as I can remember, which is more than 20 years now. It became famous for a dish Thai people love called radna.

                Ko Yoon Hokkien Noodles

                Ko Yoon Restaurant

                  Ko Yoon Restaurant is a very small and discreet place serving amazing Hokkien Noodles. If you happen to visit Phuket Town, chances are you walked passed it without noticing it, it looks like any other anonymous local hole-in-the-wall restaurant. But Ko Yoon has prepared those delicious big yellow noodles for decades and locals know how good they are.

                  Bangla Street Food

                  Bangla Street Food in Patong Beach

                    Bangla Street Food is the latest opening in Bangla Road, the heart of Patong nightlife. Street food is a smart move in this part of town. Bangla Street Food opens late, and it’s really casual. So it’s actually the perfect place before AND after the party. This is something really fantastic about Patong: you can party until 3 or even 4 am and still enjoy some seafood.

                    Kalim Rimlay restaurant Phuket

                    Kalim Rim Lay Restaurant in Kalim Beach

                      Kalim Rim Lay Restaurant is a little-known restaurant serving good honest Thai food and seafood at a good price. Best of all for some of you, it is located not far from Patong Beach, just past Kalim Beach. Rim Lay is a very relaxing spot to enjoy lunch or dinner with spectacular sunsets if you are lucky to get one as we did.

                      Swissôtel Resort Phuket Patong Beach

                      Swissôtel Resort Phuket Patong Beach

                        Swissôtel Resort Phuket Patong Beach is a great hotel in a great location if you can’t afford a hotel on the beach. This rather large resort is only 200 metres from the beach and at a comfortable walking distance to the Bangla Walking Street.

                        Tu Kab Khao Restaurant Phuket

                        Tu Kab Khao Phuket

                          Tu Kab Khao is a popular Thai restaurant in Phuket Town that serves great southern Thai food. Give yourself a chance to try their selection of dishes that are typical of Phuket. Tu Kab Khao received a Michelin rating from the new Michelin Guide for Phuket, a sign of excellent food.
