Phuket Food Guide: Best Cafe Hangouts on the Island!

Cake and coffee

The team at Villa-Phuket.com is always on the prowl for a great cafe hangout. We love our cakes, coffees (our mornings do not start until we have had at least one decent jolt of caffeine), and chilling out working at a snug and cosy spot, armed with our laptops and surrounded by aromatic cups of coffee.

After a month of intensive cafe-hopping, we bring you out list of best cafe finds on the tropical island of Phuket:
