Roof Rawai is a beachfront café-bar in Rawai, set right by the water. Guests can choose between indoor seating and an open terrace overlooking the beach — equally suitable for a relaxed dinner for two or a get‑together with friends and family. During the day, it’s a pleasant spot to enjoy the sea breeze and watch the boats drift by; by evening, the mood turns especially cosy with soft music and sunset views.

The restaurant menu in Rawai covers a full lunch or dinner as well as light snacks with drinks. Alongside Thai favourites, you’ll find familiar options such as the fish of the day, a smoked duck and kale salad, pork chop, and fried rice with soft‑shell crab. Dishes are typically served warm and neatly prepared. Beer and cocktails are available, and from 4:00 to 6:00 pm there’s a happy hour with a buy‑one‑get‑one‑free offer — an easy reason to stop in for seaside drinks before dinner.

Service is usually quick and friendly, with staff happy to help you choose. On-site parking and restrooms are available, the venue is dog‑friendly, and there’s a lively street with shops nearby. A few things to keep in mind: the road can make it noisy at times, some items may sell out, and the final bill may change once taxes are added — it’s best to confirm this in advance. Also, the actual opening hours don’t always match what’s listed online.
