Baked here, served by the sea
Kaïf is a beach café and restaurant in Chaloklum, on the north coast of Koh Phangan.
For breakfast, start with a cappuccino, our most-ordered drink, and eggs your way, our most-ordered dish. We bake the brioche buns and banana bread here and make our own jam and granola. Sit inside on the teal benches by the sea mural, or out on the deck by the water. Fresh coconuts, açaí bowls, matcha and cake carry on until 8pm. There are plugs and wifi if you bring a laptop.
