Koh Yao Noi might be a small island off the coast of Phuket, but when it comes to food, it punches above its weight. Fresh seafood straight from the ocean, fragrant Thai curries, and international treats are all waiting to be devoured. But where do you start, and what should you eat on Koh Yao Noi?
When you stay at Cape Kudu Hotel, you’ll find a fantastic selection of Koh Yao Noi speciality dishes to try right within our luxury five-star hotel.
Cape Kudu Hotel – 5-star Luxury On Koh Yao Noi
An exceptional tropical getaway awaits at Cape Kudu Hotel. While mesmerising views of Phang Nga Bay, luxurious rooms, and a stunning pool are undeniable highlights, Cape Kudu offers a truly immersive escape. We are also home to three exceptional dining venues. While we definitely encourage you to explore this beautiful island, we promise a fulfilling experience for every palate within our idyllic tropical paradise.
Let’s explore our dining venues.
Hornbill Restaurant – For Thai Classics & International Favourites

Breakfast: 6.30 am – 10.30 am
Dining: 12 pm – 11 pm (Last order 9.30 pm)
If you are wondering what to eat in Koh Yao Noi, choose Hornbill Restaurant to start your food adventure. Named after the island’s much-loved residents, the Hornbill birds, our restaurant offers a delightful dining experience in a boho-chic rustic setting.

Koh Yao Noi is home to a thriving fishing community and unique island specialities. A must-try is Kanom Jeen, rice noodles served with various curries.

Don’t miss the classic Som Tum (papaya salad), a refreshing and spicy salad that perfectly complements the island’s tropical climate.
Whether you choose to dine inside or out under the trees, the awe-inspiring views of Phang Nga Bay will keep you company. Start your day with a hearty breakfast, savour a spicy Thai curry for lunch, or enjoy a romantic dinner to remember under a starlit sky.
In line with local customs, Cape Kudu Hotel’s restaurants do not serve pork. We are also proud advocates for animal rights and, therefore, exclude shark fins, bird’s nests, and foie gras from our menus.
