The Forest by The Sky

Perched in the Phra Tamnak hills of Pattaya, The Forest by The Sky is an oceanfront restaurant and cafe that combines sweeping coastal views with a calm, unhurried atmosphere that stands apart from Pattaya's busier entertainment zones. The elevated setting delivers panoramic sea views that shift dramatically from afternoon to evening, when ocean breezes and ambient lighting give the venue a distinctly different, almost otherworldly quality. Guests can choose between indoor air-conditioned dining and open outdoor terraces, making the venue comfortable across different times of day and weather conditions. The menu covers full meals alongside drinks, with visitors highlighting strong, well-made cocktails, rich smooth coffee, and creamy matcha drinks as particular standouts. Service is consistently praised for being attentive without being intrusive, and the kitchen moves at a pace that suits relaxed dining. The venue accommodates both casual drop-ins and larger groups with equal ease, making it a practical choice for solo travellers and parties alike. Good to know: Visiting between November and February takes advantage of Pattaya's cooler, drier months, which makes the outdoor terrace considerably more comfortable given the region's humidity for much of the year. Groups of significant size are advised to contact the venue in advance to confirm table availability, as the combination of views and atmosphere makes it a popular choice for lunch gatherings and special occasions.
