Karon Restaurants

  1. Buffalo Steak House

    At the southern end of the town, this old-timer swears it serves the best steak in Phuket. It's not wildly off the mark and if you fancy large slabs of red meat, this is your place. The open front keeps the air fresh, and wood décor brings a taste of the Wild West to the table.

  2. Harry's Pub

    Harry's is at its best in the high season, when it is one of the area's most popular watering holes. Whenever the doors are open though, you can count on big portions of anything that comes with fries. The beer's good, if a little expensive.

  3. Red Onion

    This slap-up eatery in half of a garage with a tin roof is a bona fide faràng (foreigners of European descent) magnet. There is Thai food on the menu, along with Western titbits such as schnitzel and spaghetti. Cocktails and wine selections complement the meals, so try to forget the bad music. Dine at cheery red-clothed tables on chairs padded with silk pillows. It's about 300m east of the roundabout - look for the coloured lights.
