About BOOST | Cafe & Restaurant Phuket
BOOST Cafe & Restaurant is located in Rawai, one of Phuket’s quieter southern areas known for a slower pace compared to tourist-heavy zones like Patong.
This cafe sees a mix of locals, expats, and longer-stay visitors, with a more relaxed flow throughout the day. It’s better suited for longer visits, casual work sessions, and meals rather than quick stops.
Why visit

- Serves both cafe-style coffee drinks and full meals, making it practical for longer stays without needing to move venues
- Draws a steady mix of local residents and long-term expats, giving it a more neighbourhood feel than tourist-facing cafes
