Fork & Spoon Restaurant in Phuket is a cosy spot near the hotels in the Kata Beach area, tucked slightly away from the busiest streets. Inside, you’ll find a clean, stylish dining room with pleasant decor and comfortable seating — equally good for a quick lunch after a trip, a bite to eat after the beach, or a relaxed evening meal.
The concept is simple and convenient: Italian pizza and Thai favourites on one menu. They serve crisp, generously topped pizzas (including Salsiccia, Hawaiian, and Margherita), along with pasta and burgers. The Thai selection is consistently strong too: som tam (green papaya salad), shrimp fried rice, pad thai, tom kha, massaman curry, chicken satay, basil stir-fries, and seafood — squid is a particular highlight. There are vegetarian options, cocktails and cold beer, and desserts such as banana with coconut. Plates are neatly presented, flavours are bold, and the food isn’t overly greasy or heavy on pungent spices.
Another standout is the friendly service: guests are welcomed warmly, orders arrive quickly, staff help with recommendations, and they’re attentive with children. Prices are reasonable for Kata, and the value for money is reliably good. A couple of small notes: the pizza may sometimes look a little different from what you expect, and the juice is served from cartons.
