Hock Hoe Lee

Brunch & coffeeCulture & historyBudget

Phuket's oldest roastery, founded in 1958 for tin miners, today a café with breakfast on Wiset Road in Rawai.

Hock Hoe Lee was founded in 1958 by Cheng Long, a Chinese immigrant who sold freshly roasted coffee to tin mine workers. The third generation of the family now runs the business, which also supplies hotels. The Rawai café serves espresso, americano, cold brew in bottles, breakfasts (omelettes, eggs Benedict, sandwiches, pancakes) and fresh juices. Coffee beans or ground coffee are sold on-site.

Our local tip

Leave with a pack of house coffee, a more original local souvenir than typical beach shops; closes in late afternoon.
