Phuket
Where to eat in Phuket: beach areas and town offer different choices
Thai and international restaurants in Phuket: compare cuisine, area and price band, with source and map links.
Filter restaurants ↗Phuket is not a single neighbourhood
A Phuket Town restaurant and one near your beach may require very different plans. Choose using your actual base and verify the branch. If exploring town, combine lunch or dinner with that day; not every restaurant on the island is minutes from your accommodation.
Plan a special dinner
Compare Thai and international choices by menu and price band. For a scenic dinner, ask about table location and reservations: a sea photo does not guarantee the same view from every seat. Check the return journey after dinner too.
