Walking through Phuket Town or night markets, you’ll discover stalls sizzling with local snacks and fragrant curries. Here’s a list of must-try Phuket street foods that will make your taste buds dance.

1. Som Tum (Spicy Papaya Salad)

This refreshing salad mixes shredded green papaya with chili, lime, peanuts, and fish sauce. A perfect balance of spicy, sour, salty, and sweet—Som Tum is a true Thai street classic.



2. Satay Skewers

Grilled chicken or pork skewers served with peanut sauce and cucumber relish. A snack that’s smoky, savory, and unforgettable.



3. Roti Pancakes

A crispy flatbread that can be eaten sweet (with condensed milk or banana) or savory (with curry). Street vendors whip them up right before your eyes.



4. Fried Spring Rolls

Golden and crunchy on the outside, packed with glass noodles and veggies on the inside. A perfect snack for walking through night markets. 



Street food is part of Phuket’s heart and soul. Each bite tells a story of culture, tradition, and family recipes passed down for generations. If you want the real Phuket experience, grab a stool by a street cart and dig in.
