This is like the local convenience store which stocks an extensive range of quality food (much is sourced locally), groceries, books and gift ware. This place is definitely worth a visit.
It is located opposite the Surf Club a short walk from our apartment.
They also serve great organic coffee and teas etc.
Every Friday morning 7-9 some local musicians known as “The Shoplifters” gather together to entertain everyone having their morning coffee. The “round table” is where the locals gather but visitors are always welcome.

This restaurant is a favourite with local and tourists alike.
The setting is unique. Located in a rainforest setting, next to a beautiful lake, complete with Water Lillies and if you are lucky you can spot a water dragon or 2 who live there.
The food is also quite unique. A strong Thai theme, but extraordinary dishes mixing flavours like we have never seen before.
This place isn't cheap but extremely popular so wise to book. If you are celebrating a special occasion or just want a fabulous night to remember, we highly recommend.
They also run a cooking school which is a fun day, learning how to cook their glorious meals and then eat too!

Our favourite local Thai restaurant. An easy walk from home (right opposite the Surf Club) and the food is really good authentic Thai. The staff are friendly and the menu caters for all tastes including Vegan and Vegetarian. Licenced with a reasonable wine list, beer and cocktails. This place is usually busy so it is wise to book in advance if possible. Open for both lunch and dinner 7 days.
