#Breakfasttourism

Phuket is redefining itself as a morning-food destination. A recent Asia Nikkei feature spotlights the rising appeal of early-morning eateries, sparking renewed interest in culinary tourism on Thailand’s famed island.

This shift matters for visitors and residents alike. With over 8.65 million tourists in a year, these modest yet exceptional breakfast spots are reshaping routines and energizing Phuket’s historic town center. Food-focused tourism diversifies the island’s appeal beyond nightlife and beaches, encouraging longer stays and deeper engagement with Thai culture.
