Favorites: HOCKHOELEE - The Original Phuket Coffee Roaster

HOCKHOELEE's original shop was founded in Phuket town, near the fresh market, in 1958. Since then, the brand has gone from strength to strength. Today, HOCKHOELEE is the leading coffee roaster in Phuket, supplying fresh roasted coffee to a variety of restaurants, cafes and shops scattered throughout the island.

HOCKHOELEE's coffee shop outlet is located on Visit Road on the way to Rawai. Charming and quaint, the shop is a cozy little place to spend some time alone or a great place to catch up with friends. Immaculately clean, the staff are attentive and quite happy to suggest various brews of coffee and menu items. HOCKHOELEE is open daily from 8:00am until 6:00pm.

The cold-pressed juices at HOCKHOELEE are divine. Favourites include the 'Wake Up!' citrus mix and the beetroot variations. The coffee at HOCKHOELEE, as previously mentioned, is fresh and strong. I'm a big fan of their DIY Cold Brew Coffee as well as their Iced Caramel Coffee. To be honest, I've never had a bad coffee at HOCKHOELEE and believe that all of the drink items available at the coffee shop are worth trying.

HOCKHOELEE also boasts a small food menu including freshly-baked croissants, egg dishes, muesli and sandwiches. The food is tasty with a simple presentation; more emphasis is put on the taste of the food than the dishes it comes out on.

If you find yourself in the Rawai area, do make a point to stop at HOCKHOELEE. It's a great little coffee shop with a wide variety of menu items and coffee drinks. For daily information and shop specials, check out HOCKHOELEE on Facebook.
