Brunch in Phuket: Sunday resort spreads to Old Town dim sum

Phuket brunch runs in two speeds: the grand Sunday resort spread — free-flow, live stations, pool adjacent — and the casual cafe brunch in Patong, Kata, Rawai and the Old Town. Prices marked ++ mean plus 7% VAT and 10% service on top, so read the fine print before the second mimosa. Thirteen verified picks below (2026-10-01).

The Sunday resort brunches

This is Phuket's signature brunch format: hotels opening their restaurants on Sundays with long tables, live cooking stations and, at the top end, a pool you can fall into afterwards. Most are weekly or monthly — check the day before you plan around one.

Kata Rocks is the luxury pick — a monthly pool-party-style brunch around 3,800++ THB. The Mövenpick Myth in Patong is the closest resort Sunday brunch to the party strip at 1,815 THB net. InterContinental Kamala runs 2,990++ THB about 15 minutes north of Patong; Centara Grand at Karon does a monthly 1,590++ THB; Catch Beach Club at Bang Tao goes weekly at 1,890++ THB and welcomes families. Pullman Panwa's Bubbalicious runs monthly on the second Sunday at 1,990 net and is the best-for-families pick.

Cafe brunches

No resort wristband required. The Old Town holds the only proper Sunday brunch in the historic quarter; the beaches hold the eggs-Benedict-and-sea-breeze version.

Coolies Club is the one to know in the Old Town — a sparkling dim sum Sunday brunch in an artsy Chinoiserie room (they do a Chinoiserie Soiree on Saturday nights too). NumNum on Dibuk does halal Turkish and Mediterranean brunch plates — shakshuka, Turkish breakfast — and TAPAS on Ratsada pairs eggs, bagels and pancakes with a terrace. Down in Kata, Lost in Phuket does eggs Benedict with occasional live violin and a family-friendly room; Boost in Rawai is the local family brunch spot.
