Tiny Coffee

Despite it's name the Tiny Coffee Shop is not only a coffee shop.


We go in here on a regular basis because they are some outlets in Phuket (see the Map). The App that you are also able to download for free allows you to have a number of discounts as well.

The outlets are almost Western in design - white is the theme and the tables are chairs are mixed. We usually have a quick meal here. The Tiny Coffee has an enormous amount of different selections. The one we visited here is offered Hongsyok House - where the Baba Wedding Ceremonies begin...

The Thai food is really quite good - the dish that I have is almost a fusion food Fried spaghetti with Thai sausage is my choice - delicious.


I usually have the Black Sesame Dumplings in Ginger Tea - sweet for many but also delicious.

In fact download the App now and you are able to look at the whole menu and the number of dishes is very large - certainly worth a visit especially something quick but tasty and no feeling of 'fast food'.

Pirrera Cafe (closed)

This was a place which we had seen grown slowly amongst other places - The Pirrera Cafe. The Pirrera Cafe is in the heart of Phuket Old Town and is very convenient if you are wandering about - they also serve food.

The Cafe is on the corner of a crossroads which has given it character. The owner has subsequently added more character by putting a table outside at the crossroads and the way that it has been furnished.

Upstairs there are a few chairs and table, none of which are strictly matching - and there is also the opportunity to sit on cushions on the floor, I don't know if it is meant for that though? We have (to be fair) never seen anyone upstairs here and I do not know whether it is actually simply for decorative reasons?

Downstairs is also very similar but it does seem to be organised in a fashion to make it work - and it does. We were very comfortable at our table and we were taken care off smoothly, thank you.

The food - a salad and a Thai dish were nothing more than ordinary and there was a lot of green with the prawn salad that we shared. There was quite a large selection but we could not get the feeling that this was not 'really' a restaurant but a coffee shop serving food...

The coffee was the winner here - thank you. The coffee was reasonably strong and it had flavour, just a tiny bit of sugar needed here. Then we were able to relax and look at all of the little bits that had been organised here - there are certainly things to find - Yorkshire tea anyone?

Next time just a cup of coffee and one of those wonderfully looking cakes!

Swensens Ice Cream

We love to visit Swensens - usually the one in Phuket Town (which has just been renovated) but sometimes the one in Central.

My daughter is going through a phase of being very specific what ice cream, sprinkles, garnish etc and you can do that here (it is a little more expensive) and it gives me a beaming daughter.

BUT the coffee is terrible...
