We love this place! Excellent location and plenty of parking. The menu is one of the best we’ve seen in Phuket. We always feel so welcome by their amazing staff. Great coffee! Our daughter loves their chicken schnitzel, which is one of the best we’ve ever tried. They have their own yummy version of the famous Khao Soi Thai dish, they offer Australian premium beef in their carnivore dishes and salads. The mini burgers are seriously the best! Made with beef or chicken. Their pancakes are crazy good! They sometimes offer fermented foods as well. Truly delicious! At the counter they sell these really nice truffles which are a must try! Highly recommend visiting!
I love the food in Italy & France (Burgundy, Paris etc) So I am very pleasantly surprised that the French Toast Caramelised here is sooooooo good. It beats most cafes' in France & Italy in my opinion. Their Mini Burger is also v good too. Juicy & the Cheese & Grilled burger smelled awesome ! I will definitely come again. 😋👍👍👍 P.S. Easy parking just outside the restaurant
We visited The Garden Phuket during lunch time and it wasn’t busy. Very nice welcoming with nice smiles from butterflies waiters . Food quality is top-notch, service is attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere is ELECTRIC. Loving every moment here!

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.
