    Eye-catching is food taste more than anything else! Very soothing ambient, with jazz background music. The beach view is not that amusing, as it is next to some Pier, but it certainly adds a different mood to it. One thing to improve is the limited parking. I've seen only two cars able to park at their entrance, and all others spaces conquered by motorbikes.

    I don't understand how this place is rated lower than others around. Yes, it is not as cheap as street food, but that's because it's a proper café and restaurant. I tried most of the dishes on the menu and always found the food delicious. Never had any troubles after eating there. One of the few places that serves good coffee. The interior design and view are really nice. They have some lower tables where you sit on mats on the floor in the very back towards the beach. Several small tables behind and more tables on a slightly higher section in the back. We always got a table there and it was never uncomfortably crowded. We basically used KOB by the sea as our "second living room" when we stayed at "the Nest". They have electricity outlets next to some tables, sitting there for longer is not a problem.

    Everything(Atmosphere,View,food) js great except for one, the service. Ready to order and we pressed the call button which was available on the table (We were inside the air con room), after 15min a service staff arrived to take our order. The attitude was really bad which spoiled our mood before we even ate anything. New staff I suppose as we didn't see him on our previous few visits. We realise it always take awhile for their staff to notice if you are ready to order when you choose to sit in the air con area. Makes me wonder if the call button really works. Nevertheless, this place is a frequent visit for us every month because of their tasty food. Location : It's located along bangrak. 2min walk to BM minimart which sells a large variety of international groceries. The only downside for me, the parking area is always filled with motorbikes. If you drive a car you will have to park along the road side which sometimes can be quite hard to find a spot. Food : Excellent as always They serve western,Thai food and pastry. Price : Decent pricing for the portion of food ordered.

    Lunch was quite enjoyable, despite being very busy & very full. We needed to wait a few minutes for a table for 3. Staff were all actively engaged. Our orders arrived in a timely fashion & were all very tasty. Pasta Salad, KOB Club Sandwich, Keto Breakfast Bowl. Drinks included Rose Lychee, Honey Lemon & water. Well ventilated area so the table next to us with 3 smokers was only minimally invasive. Neat spot for sure.

    Recommended by a friend. Had the Turkish eggs and Chai latte. REALLY loved the chai latte. The eggs were nice a bit too bland for my liking, as I was expecting a bit of a kick from the chili oil but it was more in spirit. Also had a cinnamon twist to take home which also was lacking in cinnamon Overall vibe is nice. Beach front vibes good place to people watch on the beach. Many patrons do bring their notebooks to work here as well. There's outdoor and indoor seating and some outdoor sofa booths that faces out towards the sea. They also have an extensive menu both food and drinks.

    Nice view. I had the breakfast hash and it was ok but the eggs were overcooked and it would benefit from a little chili. The menu is extensive but the prices are not cheap: 1 iced coffee + 1 hot coffee + 1 breakfast hash = 492 baht. Service was fine - plenty of staff, tables cleared quickly, and my order arrived within 10 minutes. Some of the seats are unpadded and far from comfortable. I will still return though, because there is plenty of choice on the menu and the service is prompt, or at least it was at 8:30 before the place filled up. They sell their own freshly made bread, there is ample parking outside, and a nice breeze from the sea.

    My favorite Café in Samui! It’s a nice view on the beach and they have good coffee and decent food. Their bread is also delicious, even a simple bread with jam and butter was outstanding! I always go back here when passing by samui before or after going to the airport.

    We were 9 adults n I don't know why we ordered 17 mains / soup for breakfast. Crazy. All the food was extremely good but we could not finish them. Great place to chillout.

    A great little cafe by the sea. They serve a huge selection of vegetarian and vegan options which is why I love to eat here. It's always very busy which does often mean a long wait for your coffee and breakfast dishes but when they do arrive they really are delicious. On this occasion my food arrived long before my coffee 🤦🏼‍♀️ Highly recommend the scrambled tofu on toast or a classic avo toast with a dirty chai.

    Great food with a phenomenal view! Very nice staff with very clear explanations. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for a breakfast / lunch cafe.

  • 5/5 Chris G. 3 months ago on Google • 17 reviews New
    We found this one day by walking by, then checked out the reviews and they were on the money. A beautiful place to eat with a cracking view and ambience, made it a lovely brunch experience not once but twice! A little more pricey than normal but so worth it! The food is really good with a great menu to choose from. I had a burger the first time and then the Mac & Cheese the second. Both were good dishes washed down with a honey lime soda which sounds wrong but really hit the spot.

    This is among the best places to have English breakfast. Located by the beach, the cafe provides a wide variety of food. Here, one can have food while enjoying the view. The quality of food is really good and the staffs are friendly and polite.

  • 5/5 Teddy 8 months ago on Google
    First of all, a wonderful atmosphere and lovely place to sit and enjoy the surroundings. Then, the food - absolutely stunning! The smoked salmon is super good quality and the shakshuka is delicious. Really good service and great prices to match. Highly recommended for a brunch! The return trip to try the dinner menu has already been planned..

    Nice spot for a meal. The food was fresh and tasty. Staff were attentive and friendly. No complaints.

  • 5/5 Millie H. 1 year ago on Google
    A beautiful place to grab a bite to eat. We ate here at about lunch time when we were wanting breakfast food and this was the perfect place! They have loads of options on their menu (which you can find online) at really reasonable prices. I got the farmers bowl and added an extra muffin to have the egg with and it was yummy!

    A nice place very close to the beach, you can enjoy your food in a relaxed atmosphere. The food and drinks are good and the service is nice. Sometimes the service is a bit confusing... you get your food first and then your cutlery, but whatever, relax... We always enjoy it. You can also take away desserts and anything else you like... 👍🏻😊

  • 5/5 Shane D. 1 year ago on Google
    CNt decide what was better the ambiance, the view, the service or the scrumptious food. Highly recommended. It’s a Koh samui must do/visit. Excellent breakfast fare, throughly enjoyed everything we ordered along with the great service.

  • 5/5 Onur O. 1 year ago on Google
    They have western style breakfast/brunch menu with reasonable prices. They are located right on the beach with a good view. Overall, a good place to chill for a while.

  • 5/5 Jayna S. 2 years ago on Google
    Looking for a nice place to have brunch or a laidback working space in the Bo Put area trust me go to Cafe K.O.B. They just have the most amazing breakfast, brunch and workplace on Koi Samui. Staff is really friendly, food is really tasty and the scenery is just breathtaking. Its equipped with a separate airconditioned room as well as many seats with plugs nearby for your laptop.

  • 5/5 A G (Kawa N. 2 years ago on Google
    What a beautiful little cafe by the sea. It is peaceful and food is great. Coffee is the best and flat white you just have to try. And if you're a digital nomad, you'll love this place as tables come with electric and USB plugs. The music is low volume so it doesn't disturb too much.

  • 5/5 Christy 2 years ago on Google
    Tasty food, great service and chill ambience. Had japanese egg sandwich and kee mao noodle. We love every bites of it. They put pepper seed that basically fill your mouth with flavourful taste. Egg sandwich is really tasty with crispy bread outside. They have good selections of bread, western breakfast and thai food.

  • 5/5 Jai S. 2 years ago on Google
    Breakfast here was pretty good, they have a huge menu and the prices are reasonable, very good portion sizes, the coffee is great, and the service is good. Staff are lovely and very accomodating for vegans, there is a nice open setting and it's kid friendly they have a small equipment set for them to play on.

😐 The hotel is beautiful. We were there for 8 nights, but ended up moving hotels after 5 nights due to the number of screaming kids in the pool.

👍👍 Very tasty food. Felt like a genuine Thai experience. The portions are very generous. The omlette looks like it's made from 8-10 eggs. Ridiculously huge. Oyster sauce was very good. Had the chicken curry spicy and stir fried morning glory. Could have been a bit more spicy. I think they toned it down...

👍 Had a good meal of ham & mushroom pizza, stewed lamb shank and arugula salad. Stewed lamb came with creamy buttered mashed potatoes and spinach the lamb was perfectly cooked. Tenders and flavorful. Pizza was okay. It lack a little flavor. Good crust and good size pizza but wasn’t as flavorful. Great...
