Chino @ Cafe' Gallery

Phuket Town


A fun cafe with a rustic-chic feel and decorative bicycles on colourful Th Thalang. The tiny semi-open kitchen turns out a tasty selection of sandwiches, pastas, all-day breakfasts and Thai dishes (Thai basil chicken, mango sticky rice), along with good espresso, a range of teas, organic homegrown fruit and boxes of Phuket Town's famous sweet cookies.
