CHICA Rooftop Lounge

CHICA Rooftop Lounge in Phuket is an open-air panoramic rooftop with thoughtfully planned seating and a stylish design. Even on hot days it stays comfortable thanks to the pleasant breeze up top, and when the weather turns, a roof cover keeps the space protected.

The menu blends Thai and Mexican influences and goes well beyond a “locals-only” lineup. Service is fast, portions are generous, and the flavors are bold yet well put together. Standouts include rich beef fajitas, fresh and perfectly balanced ceviche, solid nachos, and a proper chicken tostada. Many guests start with the eggplant sticks, and for dessert the flan and churros are popular choices — both are done especially well here.

The bar program is a real strength, with plenty of cocktail options such as the Pineapple Fizz and Golden Hour, plus free-flow “all you can drink” packages. Prices feel fair for the quality of the food and presentation.

Live music — either a singer or a band — adds to the atmosphere, setting the tone for a relaxed dinner and easy conversation, and they’ll sometimes take requests. Service is warm and attentive: the team responds quickly, remembers preferences, and helps with special occasions, from birthday dinners to arranging a wedding table, including the cake and small surprises. One small note: in the evening, table lighting isn’t always very bright.
