Koh Lanta Restaurant & Bars
Sea View Restaurant
 Built
on a wooden pier over the water, "Sea View Restaurant"
is a favourite place to eat out, when you are in the small village
of Saladan. This restaurant on water is a gourmet’s delight.
Great Thai Food and really attractive prices are the big draw.
While tasting the exotic dishes, you can enjoy the lovely scenes
unfolding before your eyes along the coastline and across the
waters. The island opposite and the various types of boats cruising
among the islands provide enchanting sights.
Saladan has a few seafood
restaurants on the sea near the ferry pier as well as a Swiss
bakery.
Santos Cafe : For a relaxing coffebreak
Koh Lanta Nightlife
Easy bars on the beach are the main feature of Koh Lanta by night.
Lanta is not known for big nights in bars but more by star gazing
on the beaches and watching the squid fisherman boat's lights
out to sea
 Eat
Ko Lanta has a wide variety of restaurants, the kind that most
visitors travel to Thailand for: beach-front locations serving
delicious and inexpensive Thai and seafood dishes. Eateries line
the beaches in front of the bungalows and no visitor to Lanta
will starve from lack of variety or interesting places to dine.
- Sunset Restaurant is a very small restaurant
on Klong Dao beach close to D.R. Lanta Resort beside Mooks bar.
The Thai food is the best on Klong Dao beach and cheap too.
Real Thai style eating with the tables directly on the sand
and no decorations at all but a nice view and cool breeze from
the sea. And the food... mmm.
- Abdul's Pancakes is a cr?pe stall run
from a motorcycle sidecar. You can most often find him in Moo
1, Saladan, opposite Lanta Diver when the boat divers come back
(around 15:00). His chocolate and banana cr?pe and his chicken
cr?pe are especially recommended.
- Cook Kai is just across the street from
Klong Nin Beach. Wholly built of wood and lovely decorated,
it offers a spacious open dining area and bar. Run by the cook
and his brothers and sisters, their Thai food, which has a bit
of an extraordinary note, is probably the best you can get in
the area and beyond. Go for the daily specials announced on
the board at the entrance! Cook Kai also offers thai cooking
classes.
- River Restaurant is a friendly family
operation located on the beach just south of Narima Resort.
They have a delicious menu...lots of Thai dishes and a few western
ones as well. The Phad Thai is excellent. It is very popular
with families and the owner's children often play with tourist
kids
- Thai Cuisine is a long-established Koh
Lanta favorite. It is located in Phra Ae just south of the Opium
night club. The menu features a wide selection of wonderful
Thai dishes and Chinese as well. The "special" spring
roll is excellent. There is bar service and a small artisan
boutique. Say hello to the chef/owner, Somkuan...he's a great
guy.
Drink
There's not much in the way of nightlife on Ko Lanta, which,
for many is part of the appeal. There are a few restaurant/bars
at the harbor and most hotels.
- Chalee BARley's - a friendly bar/restaurant/guesthouse
on Klong Nin Beach. This is a great place to meet other mellow
travelers, and if you are stuck without accommodation, you can
always crash on the floor.
- Mooks bar - on Klong Dao beach between
D.R. Lanta Bay Resort and Sun Fun & Sea Bungalows, and a
good spot to relaxing with a drink on the beach, listen to some
reggae, and maybe watch sports on TV. Mook himself is a person
worth meeting.
- Oscar's Bar - driftwood terrace on the
beach.
- Where Else / Feeling Bar - [10] Indian
& Thai food, in a clean, friendly, quiet, and above all
relaxed atmosphere.
