This place checks every box — the coffee is hands down some of the best I’ve ever had: rich, smooth, and clearly made with care. The food is just as impressive — fresh ingredients, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. The vibe is unbeatable: warm, modern, and welcoming, with the perfect balance of energy and calm. You can tell the team really loves what they do; every detail, from the music to the decor, creates a place you actually want to spend time in. Whether you’re grabbing a quick espresso or settling in with your laptop, this spot delivers every single time. We are visiting Rawai and have already been here everyday.

This is honestly one of the best, if not THE BEST, places I have ever been to. The food was absolutely amazing, the hygiene level is excellent, and the service - oh my god - the service is beyond perfect! We went there once, because it looked nice on the outside, and after that we kept coming every single day until the end of our vacation. We were always served by L(Aung Ko Htwe) and Chan. They are the visual representation and example of what a real, well-manared, kind, well-behaved, extremely skilled and attentive waiter/waitress should be. The reason why we kept coming back is 25% because the food was nice and 75% because we were happy with the service they provide, and the energy they charged us with every time we arrived! They are amazing people and it was really sad to say goodbye to them! I really hope they get a big big big raise because they deserve it so so much! I highly recommend the following dishes: 1. Chicken Wrap 2. Zuccini Hashbrowns 3. Pumpkin soup 4. Pad Thai - ask to have it with chicken, it’s not on the menu but they’ll do it for you! :) This is, without a doubt, a place, which I would 100% go back to, and would recommend to ANYONE staying not only in Rawai but in Phuket in general.

Absolutely outstanding café – truly a hidden gem in Rawai! The interior alone feels like it’s from another world. It’s incredibly beautiful, stylish, and thoughtfully designed. You immediately feel comfortable and relaxed the moment you walk in – a place with real character and soul. The drinks are absolutely delicious. The smoothies are top quality, super fresh, and full of flavor. But the real highlight for me was the iced Thai tea – without exaggeration, the best I’ve ever had in my life. The food is just as impressive. The club sandwich was excellent – perfectly prepared, rich in flavor, and very satisfying. And a real insider tip: the small cake snacks. They are simply amazing. In my cake, it wasn’t just jam inside, but real pieces of fruit – incredibly tasty and clearly made with care and quality ingredients. Everything here feels natural, high-quality, and made with love. Anyone coming to Rawai must stop by this place – at least for a drink, but ideally also for food. Whether it’s breakfast, lunch, or coffee and cake, this café is an absolute must-visit and a true hidden gem. Thank you for this wonderful experience!
