Why go, and how to do it well

3 Mermaids is a café and restaurant on the Pratumnak coast where the tables are built like little tree houses looking over the water, and the setting is the whole idea. It's at its best at golden hour, when the light comes in low over the bay.

The food is mixed. Reviewers like the Thai dishes and find the Western ones, such as the pizza, average, so order Thai. There can be a minimum spend at busy times, and Google puts most meals at ฿400–1,400 a head.

Tips for Visiting Restaurants & Food

Follow the Crowds

The busiest street stalls are almost always the best — high turnover means fresh ingredients and a recipe that locals vouch for. An empty restaurant at dinner time is a red flag.

Ice Is Safe

Factory-made tube or cylinder ice (used in virtually all restaurants and stalls) is made from purified water and is safe to consume. You don't need to skip the iced Thai tea.

Use Grab for Delivery

The Grab app works for food delivery across Thailand, letting you order from street stalls and restaurants alike. It's invaluable on rainy days or when you want to eat in your hotel.
