    Great UK couple running the business. Chef trained in Bangkok to know the proper traditional way to prepare Thai dishes from scratch (they make their own curry pastes on order, etc) Solid service from locals. Good attention to details and consistently great food. They also have excellent burgers, we like the fried chicken one best. No other western dish to try to appeal to what a westerner might want. Just well executed burgers and french fries. The cocktails are excellent. They use liquor from Europe and the US. They have an experienced barman that prepares balanced cocktails. He also takes care of preparing solid espresso drinks. Good for all day desires The owners are genuine and care about their business. They go to tables to chat with clients and ensure a great experience. They also give great advice on what to avoid or what to do in the area. Basically everyone that goes eat there once ends up eating there a few times; best food in the region. (We noticed several customers visiting again, as we did)

    A British-Ukrainian duo conjures up gourmet delights on the plate with the best ingredients. The stylishly furnished restaurant with its magnificent wooden tables invites you to linger. And if the fresh ingredients become scarce due to a tropical storm, the chef himself quickly invents a new dish, like my Prawn Burger. Five stars are still not enough for this establishment.

    The staff is very kind, the place is clean. If you are around here, this is one of the best places if you want eat a burger. I haven't tried Thai food so I can't talk about it. That being said, the chicken burger I ate, served with french fries, does not come close to the quality of an artisan chicken burger that you would, for example, eat in Italy. On the other hand, like most places in the province of Krabi, the prices are the same as in Europe. In this area of the country they do not want to be convinced that this is Thailand, not Switzerland. In any case, in this place, compared to the average prices in this area, the cost of the chicken burger is 100% ok. I paid € 11 for the chicken burger, french fries and water. That is the same price I would pay in Italy. In other parts of Thailand you pay half, sometimes even a third, to eat the same things, maintaining the same quality. Anyway, I repeat ... here, compared to other places around here, the price is ok. There are caffé in some area close to this one, where they charge you 14 euros for a 12 cm sandwich, without even giving you a glass of water. This is not the case with the White Orchid, I left the place with a swollen belly (in the good sense).. So in conclusion I recommend the place. PS: Thanks for your reply. My comment was for the general prices of this area of Thailand. As I wrote, your 11 € chicken burger has a good price (competitive and with quality). And, I repeat, I suggest your restaurant. The food I tried was good. See you soon I hope.

    We had a mixture of western and Thai dishes All of which were very good. I chose the cheeseburger as I needed a change from Thai food and it was excellent. Very modern and clean restaurant and has both outdoor and indoor (aircon) seating. Was busy but the service was good and efficient. Overall would go back and definitely recommend.

    The best place in my opinion to eat in the area, we had 2 meals there firstly had a chicken burger which was excellent in a tempura based batter then on the second visit had a more traditional Thai dinner which out of the 3 weeks I've been travelling around Thailand was the best I've had anywhere (Both meals for 2 people with 2 drinks a starter and 2 mains came to about 900 baht) The staff are friendly and courteous and also met the owner who was a South Londoner like myself very friendly, happy to answer anything you ask and clearly has a passion for his restaurant and the food served in it. Definitely worth a visit 👍🏻

    (Translated by Google) Very good restaurant. Ambience is well maintained, nice and clean. The staff is very friendly. The food is delicious and recommended. Unfortunately, I find the burger too expensive for this environment but they are still very recommendable. We have just been to this restaurant twice. The restaurant is rather small, so I recommend to come a bit earlier. (Original) Sehr gutes Restaurant. Ambiente ist sehr gepflegt, schön und sauber. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich. Das Essen ist lecker und zu empfehlen. Leider finde ich die Burger zu teuer für diese Umgebung aber sie sind trotzdem sehr Empfehlenswert. Wir waren gerade zwei Mal in diesem Restaurant. Das Restaurant ist eher etwas klein, deswegen empfehle ich etwas früher zu kommen.

    The best restaurant around Beyond Resort or Dusit Thani Krabi. The place is nicely done up with a cozy feel and the food is just too good. The Thai food is awesome and the burgers as great as well. Service is quick and super friendly. They understand English quite well. A must visit if your around the area. Highly recommend it!

    Stayed with family in the apartments nearby and was very excited to discover this gem, opened merely a month ago just around the corner! First, get warmed by hospitality and care-giving of owners who routinely make sure their customers get the best service they can imagine. Pair that with great food selection, all skillfully cooked with pride in the fresh ingredients and served at restaurant-grade quality. Top it off with clean, air-con'ed, brand new space and best in town coffee, bread and burgers - that's when you get the accurate picture of what The White Orchid is all about. P.S. Don't wait any longer - try it today, before they run out of beef! ;)

    Simply put...great atmosphere...great food...great service..great background tunes. Love the place Much needed change in the local restaurant scene. Owners present and it was evident they want this new business to be successful! I watched their faces as they watched their customers "Dig in". Their pride clearly showed. Well done to you and your staff!

    This is a dated review but well deserved, my wife and I went to Thailand in March for our honeymoon. We were all over the country searching for culinary excellence. Who would have thought we would have found it across the street from the Beyond Resort. The owner and his family were absolutely terrific people with an eye for the freshest ingredients and quality. Truly the best Pad Thai we had on the trip, BUT the Duck Massaman Curry is the best dish in Thailand bar none. If this restaurant were in Sarasota Florida the would make a killing. Do yourself a favor, if you are in Krabi, rent a car, scooter or whatever and get there. We ate there every night for a week, there was no reason to go anywhere else.

    (Translated by Google) The burgers are insanely good - we will have to eat our menu one day 😄 a little more expensive than the restaurants in the surrounding area but definitely worth every baht 😊 (Original) Die Burger sind wahnsinnig gut - wir werden uns einmal durch die Karte essen müssen 😄 preislich etwas teurer als die Restaurants in der näheren Umgebung aber definitiv jeden Baht wert 😊

  • 5/5 Usman A. 4 years ago on Google
    I have fallen in love with this restaurant Service was perfect but the best thing about this place was the interest taken by the owner himself. Suggested me the meal twice ( fish and prawn curry) and both times it turned out to be flawless Must visit place for everyone

  • 4/5 Marcos A. 4 years ago on Google
    I came for the famous black and blue burger. I was not dissapointed. All the ingredients were fresh and much tasteful. The blue cheese had surprising quality and the meat burguer was amazing. Very well seasoned and full of flavour. EXACTLY the flavour I was expecting. 😋 I'm local so I can surely say when in Klong Muang, DO NOT miss this place if you enjoy a tasteful burguer 🤩 The only reason I did not gave 5***** is personal... a burguer of such quality should reallly be sided with regular fried potatoes, not the frozen ones. It will make a huge difference. This burguer deserves it! Everything else - perfect staff, enought proximity with costumer, a beautiful place. Curry was spot on and veggie raps also. Thank you!

  • 4/5 지영준 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The atmosphere is good but the sound is low due to the low ceiling of the room. Food taste is average. And the black and blue hamburger has a strong aroma and bitter taste of blue cheese, so it's hard for beginners (Original) 분위기는 좋지만 실내 천고가 낮아 소리가 울림. 음식 맛은 보통 수준. 그리고 블랙앤블루 햄버거는 블루 치즈의 꼬릿한 향과 쓴맛이 강해 비기너들에겐 힘들듯

  • 5/5 김재관 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The staff is very friendly and the food is delicious. The store is very tidy. But the food is a little salty. You have to eat normal rice in order to match the liver (Original) 종업원들은 매우 친절하고 음식은 맛있어요. 가게가 매우 깔끔합니다. 다만 음식이 좀 많이 짜요. 일반 공기밥을 시켜먹어야 간을 맞출 수 있네요

  • 5/5 Vitaly K. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Nice place with no relative location, and given the latter, 5+. Modern urban interior with elements of Thai decor, air conditioning. Good food concept: traditional Thai dishes + section with burgers for children and those who have joined them. The cuisine is adapted for tourists, but rather in terms of the "spiciness" of dishes. From drinks: cocktails, standard beer, a small wine list, but with decent wine. The service is fast and attentive. We met a woman who speaks Russian, the waiters decently speak English. (Original) Хорошее место без относительно местоположения, а учитывая последнее, 5+. Современный городской интерьер с элементами тайского декора, кондиционирование. Хорошая концепция по еде: традиционные тайские блюда + секция с бургерами для детей и к ним примкнувшим. Кухня адаптирована под туристов, но скорее с точки зрения «остроты» блюд. Из напитков: коктейли, стандартное пиво, маленькая винная карта, но с приличным вином. Обслуживание быстрое и внимательное. Встретила нас женщина, говорящая по-русски, официанты прилично говорят по английски.

    Being vegetarian in thailand could not have been easier with places like The White Orchid. The absolutely delicious food served with the most amazing hospitality made us crave more. Too bad we were in Krabi for only two days otherwise we would've gone again and again. Keep up the good work!

    It's the best restaurant in the neighborhood. The food was carefully done and presented. I was impressed with their Thai menu and also their burgers. If you're coming for dinner, be sure to make a reservation in advance. They're the only restaurant that gets full around dinner time.

  • 5/5 Steven R. 4 years ago on Google
    Just got home from The Beyond Resort which is opposite this fantastic restaurant. Once we found it we ate nowhere else. Great people. Great food. Cant rate it highly enough. They even do burger and chips if you need a rest from the spicey stuff.

    Just want to share a lovely dining experience with people, this is the second night we have eaten as a group of six at the white orchid , the thai is wonderful as is the burger which is as good as five guy's, the flavour and the way the burger made of mince chunks is 5 star , the chicken burger is amazing with the panko breadcrumbs , the owner who is British keeps a tight shop and it shows in the service and quality of the food
