Restaurants
Now, let’s get to the important part. These are the restaurants I got to try and that I was really happy with.
1. The Vegan Table
Really lovely place that also offers international dishes so if you miss home definitely give this a try! We had the full breakfast, the pizza and their lovely banana dessert. It is a bit pricey but really worth it.
Vegan Pizza
Pizza with sundried tomatoes, pesto, olive and onions.
Best Dishes: Vegan Pizza, English Breakfast, Scramble Tofu
Price Range: ££
2. Reach Plant Based Kitchen
Perfect if you want to try authentic cuisines, they have lovely pad thais and curries. I absolutely loved this restaurant and it was also very very cheap. The lady that served us was absolutely sweet and friendly. I could not recommend more.
Tacos
Tacos with vegan beef, salad, tomatoes and avo.
Best Dishes: Tacos, Passion Fruit Smoothie,
Price Range: ££
3. Vegan Junkie
If you want to indulge in vegan junk food definitely give this restaurant a try. They have the best burgers and milkshakes in the whole island. I ate so much when I came here and I was absolutely stuffed. 100% recommend.
Burgers and fries
vegan beef burgers with vegan cheese and bacon, curly fries and spring rolls.
Best Dishes: Chik’n Club Burger, Vanilla Milkshake, Curly Fries
Price Range: ££
4. Central Phuket Floresta
This is not really a restaurant but it is a stand that you will find in the middle of this shopping centre. They make pad thais but also other food such as spring rolls. This pad Thai was extremely cheap (1.40£) and the last that made it was so lovely. I highly recommend to give it a visit if you are in the neighbourhood.

5. On the table Tokyo Cafè
This restaurant is also inside the shopping centre that I mentioned earlier. It is a Japanese restaurant with a few vegan options. The staff was really friendly and the food was also very delicious and healthy. The prices were also very reasonable.
Rice bowl with tofu
Rice, veggies and tofu.
Best Dishes: Balanced Tofu Bowl, Fried Tofu Teriyaki, Inari Tofu maki
Price Range: ££
6. Nien Earn Vegetarian
This is a super local vegetarian restaurant in Old Phuket Town. We found this restaurant because very close to it there is a scooter rental place so we just stopped to try it. They have a vegan pad Thai and it was really good but for me it was spicy and it was very difficult to eat as I don’t like spicy food, but if you do then you’ll love it!
Vegan Pad Thai
Pad Thai with veggies, peanuts and soybean sprouts.
Best Dishes: Pad Thai
Price Range: £
7. Naka Weekend Market
This weekend night market is really nice and you’ll be able to find plenty of vegan snacks. Unfortunately, you will also see a lot of dead animals which is not the best but if you just stay away from those and only look for the vegan staff you’ll have a good time.
8. Pure Vegan Heaven
Sweet potato waffles
Sweet potato waffles with coconut syrup, chocolate spread, mango and orange.
Best Dishes: Sweet Potato Waffles, Falafel Wrap, Papaya Salad
Price Range: ££
Other vegan restaurants I didn’t get to try:
9. Pure Vegan Heaven
10. Vegan Kon Cook
It’s good to also mention that Thailand is a very vegan friendly country due to its Buddhism religion. It was very easy to find access to good vegan food while on tours and excursions.
What to do
Here are some tours and excursions that you shouldn’t miss when you go to Phuket!
