Cha-Chai Home

Healthy restaurant run by an English-Thai couple, with plenty of vegetarian and vegan options; the homemade bread and hummus are popular, and it is among the island's highest-rated eateries.

Run by Charmaine from England and her Thai husband Chai, the restaurant is on the road from the pier to Ao Yai, beside the new bridge. The menu includes Thai, fusion and Western healthy dishes, with many vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free choices. Reviewers praise the homemade bread, hummus and assorted dips, as well as the iced masala milk tea. The restaurant avoids plastic, and its straws are bamboo. There is a small shop and a book-swap shelf. The menu is long, and service can be slow when it's busy in high season. About 300 baht per person. Open in high season; it may close during the rainy season.
