U Bay Bar & Restaurant
Description
Garlic squid, pandan prawn curry and whole fried fish in tamarind sauce are the sensible reasons to stop at U Bay. The pineapple fried rice arrives inside its fruit shell, with battered chicken adding more crunch than strictly necessary.
Tables sit directly on Khlong Chak Beach, under shade huts with sand underfoot and the bay in full view. Cool off in the sea, rinse at the outdoor shower, then return for a chilled coconut or mango smoothie. Sunset cocktails fit the setting; pretending this is difficult work would be absurd.
Breakfast holds up, dinner has more range, and the seafood display gives the place its strongest hand. Thai staples vary in form, so steer toward prawns, squid, fried rice and curry.
A small pancake hut sits beside the restaurant, and the garden behind it is worth a slow look after eating. Fire shows run on selected evenings, turning this quiet southern beach into a proper after-dark stop.
