TAPAS Cafe & Restaurant in Phuket Old Town is a cozy, air‑conditioned café‑restaurant that’s easy to drop by for breakfast, brunch, or a hearty lunch. The dining room is small and intimate, and there’s also a veranda where you can sit quietly with a drink. It’s clean inside, the music is easy on the ears, and the overall vibe is relaxed and friendly — well suited for families with kids, too.
The kitchen focuses on familiar flavor pairings and generous portions — the servings are genuinely large — with taste driven by quality ingredients. The menu confidently blends Western and local favorites: shakshuka with burrata and poached eggs, salmon on a bagel, pasta (including steak spaghetti), burgers, and sandwiches. Tacos deserve a special mention (the beef and pulled beef options are especially popular), along with truffle fries, garlic bread, fried calamari, gyoza, nachos, and desserts. Seafood lovers can choose from fresh seafood dishes and soups, while those who like a bit more heat should try the boldly spiced khao soi. For drinks, expect good coffee and a well‑balanced iced Thai tea that isn’t overly sweet.
Service is built around attentive, polite hospitality: the staff help you choose without being pushy, and food often arrives quickly. When the place is busy, wait times can be longer. Prices are on the higher side for the area; service charge and taxes may be added to the bill, and card payments can include an extra fee — so the final total may come out higher than the menu prices.
