Who’s hungry for a big ol burger in Chalong? Quite honestly, nothing tastes as good as a big juicy burger when you’ve been stuck sweating in the humidity all day. Can I get an ‘Amen’?! Whilst Phuket is famous for its incredible street food, fresh seafood, bingsu and more sadly, it isn’t really famous for its burgers. Beef isn’t all that common in your local restaurants and often the burgers you might find out and about are a little insipid compared with the flavour-packed buns you might be imagining.
Be that as it may, there ARE some super burger places popping up but they do take a little hunting to find. We’ve done you a solid and eaten our way all across the island to find you the very best, juiciest burgers that use the highest quality ingredients and taste amazing. You can thank us later, because our waistline certainly won’t be.
Grab your bib, get ready to unbutton the top button of your trousers and let’s tuck into the only burger in Chalong recap that you’ll ever need! Ready? Let’s gooooo!

Poached Breakfast Cafe
Of course, you might think Poached Breakfast Cafe is just that, a breakfast cafe – but let me assure you, we are more than just a one trick pony. Neighhhh. This is the only spot you’ll want to come for a burger in Chalong.
We have 3 delicious burgers that are piled high with amazing quality ingredients and wow oh wow are they good. You’ll want to start with our house burger which is a juicy, medium beef patty, topped with lean bacon, a runny egg, cheddar cheese, fresh salad, homemade pickles, our zingy signature relish all on a freshly made bun. Of course we smother that with mustard and mayo and serve with a portion of crispy fries.
If you like your burgers with a little more pizazz and all that jazz, let’s spice things up with our spicy burger. We take that very same fresh bun that we make in our bakery and top it with the juiciest beef patty. Then we add the cheddar, green oak, fresh tomato, spicy jalapeños, our secret spicy sauce and a mouth-watering chipotle mayo. Zingy and zippy – just how we like it. That’s why this is a top tier burger in Chalong.
Vegetarians and meat eaters alike will fall in love with our burgers, because we serve up the best veggie burger in town. We make our own delicious veggie patty from scratch and whack that in a bun with cheddar, fresh salad, pickles, homemade relish, mustard and mayo. It’s so good you’ll be back for it time and time again. Trust me on this one.
Don’t worry if you’re not in the mood for a burger in Chalong though, we’ve got a huge Aussie inspired menu that takes a leaf out of the books of the infamous Melbourne breakfast cafe.
We’ve got a whole range of super sangas (sandwiches) that will knock your socks off. Try the classic Aussie favourite ham, cheese and tomato toastie. Or step outside your comfort zone with one of our signatures like the pesto, ham, brie, sundried tomato sanga.
If charcuterie is your jam, you’ll want to tuck into the salami, cheddar, tomato, olive and sundried tomato sarnie. It’s so dang good and, when served with an Italian soda, will give you flashbacks to the Italian summer you wish you had. Or how about our curried chicken sandwich. It doesn’t have the popularity it so richly deserves but every Aussie kid will remember their mums making curried egg or curried chicken sandwiches on a weekend and this one delivers the nostalgia with a big ol punch. Pulled chicken with curry dressing that’s imported all the way from Denmark, topped with bacon, tomato and bell peppers (or capsicum for you true blues).
We’ve got wraps, burritos, bagels (whooooo you’ve got to try our halloumi bagel with bbq cream cheese) and lots more. But for those of you who are a little less carb heavy in your diets, we’ve also got a fantastic range of salads that are full of flavour. Our customer fave is the chicken Cobb salad with avo, bacon, a runny egg, crumbly blue cheese and a creamy ranch dressing. Check the pulled pork salad too with caramelised onion, blue cheese, sweet corn and ranch. Orrr we’ve got a pumpkin, feta, beetroot and spinach salad that’s packed with protein rich quinoa and drizzled with balsamic dressing. So yum!
Don’t forget to pair your meal with one of our incredible coffees. I’m not being dramatic when I say that we serve the best coffee this side of the mainland. We take so much care with every cup and train our baristas extensively. You’ll fall in love with our smooth, medium roast blend and you’ll be coming back over and over for our amazing coffees and the very best burger in Chalong.
With such a fantastic menu, full of high quality ingredients and delicious flavour combinations, you can’t help but fall in love with Poached Breakfast Cafe.
