Beer Bites Galore: Where to Find the Best Pub Grub in Phuket

Guys, it’s beer night, so cast your dietary restrictions out of the window; knock back the beers and demolish plates laden with rich, heart Irish delights. Need some recommendations? We sniff out venues dishing up some of the best pub grub in Phuket:

Angus O’Tools Irish Pub, Karon

When it’s beer night, chill out at Angus O’Tools. A decent Wi-Fi connection, two large screens showing live football matches and sports, live music performances and fun-filled theme nights ensure that there’s something to keep everyone well-occupied – provided that they’re not kept busy chowing down hearty Irish fare and downing chilled beers. Take your pick from a good selection of beers, such as Guinness, Kilkenny, Greene King IPA, Fosters, Heineken and draught Magners cider. When it comes to food, trust us when we say you’ll need a large appetite to polish your plate clean – the portions are generous here.

Irish Times Pub Patong

There’s no better place to tank up on beer, food and fun than Irish Times Pub. An extensive menu, featuring all-day Irish breakfasts, starters, salads, steaks and mains, offers ample fare for an indulgent meal. Of course, you’ll find traditional Irish favourites on the menu, such as a good ol’ Guinness pie, gammon steak and Irish stew. Carnivorous diners at the table should not miss out on savouring the “Steak on Stone”, a cook-it-yourself dish with a choice of fillet, rib eye or tuna steak. Seafood lovers with a preference for crispy chips will want to head down over on the pub’s Fish and Chips Fridays. If you’ve got folks in your dining party who aren’t fans of Irish food, there’s a section on the menu listing out a variety of local Thai dishes to cater to their tastebuds.

Lastly, portions are huge here, but you’ll want to leave space in your stomach to enjoy the variety of beers, ciders, lagers and shots available.
