Kobkaew Phuket

5.0(50 reviews)

Tucked along Thanon Talang in the heart of Phuket Old Town, Kobkaew Phuket is a women's clothing store that regularly catches the eye of passersby with its vivid, eye-catching displays. The shop specialises in dresses notable for their colour and quality, drawing in shoppers who find it difficult to walk past without stepping inside for a browse. Visitors consistently highlight the welcoming atmosphere and the attentiveness of the staff, who go out of their way to assist customers in finding the right fit. The selection caters to a range of sizes, making it an inclusive stop for shoppers of varying builds. Whether searching for a personal treat or a gift — reviewers have noted success finding pieces suitable for both — the boutique offers a compact but carefully curated range that leans toward bright, fashion-forward styles. Good to know: Kobkaew Phuket is open daily from 10:00 to 20:00 on weekdays, with extended hours until 22:00 on Saturdays and Sundays, making it a convenient stop for an evening browse after exploring the Old Town. The shop is located at 45 Thanon Talang, well within walking distance of the area's main heritage streets and cafes. No website is listed, so visiting in person is the best way to check current stock.

What a beautiful shop!!! Every time I walk around the old town, this shop is so distracting in a good way :) I can't resist to go in and browse. This is second time I shopped here. If you love colorful vibe and prints....you gotta check them out

Very lovely shop, lovely colors, good quality, I found the best dress as a Christmas gift for my mom and the lady has been very nice. I definitely recommend this place !😊

Visited a little pop up shop in old Phuket town. Beautiful dresses that fit all sizes. The lady working was gorgeous and went out of her way to help us.

Tips for Visiting Markets & Shopping

Haggle at Markets, Not Malls

Prices at market stalls are negotiable — start at 50–60% of the asking price and meet in the middle. Fixed-price shops and malls don't haggle. Smile and keep it friendly; aggressive bargaining is considered rude.

Arrive Early or Late

Vendors believe the first sale of the day is lucky — you'll often get a better deal if you arrive right when the market opens. Late in the evening, sellers may also discount to avoid packing unsold goods.

Be Cautious with Tailors

Bangkok has excellent tailors, but also many tourist traps. Avoid anyone offering suspiciously cheap suits or who approaches you on the street. Ask your hotel for recommendations, read reviews, and always get two fittings.
