Scattered around Chalong are countless unique small business that cater to tourists and expats. The best of which no doubt, are the restaurants that serve all kinds of food.  

Chalong’s Diverse Culinary Delights

The Family Restaurant just before Tesco serves fresh middle-eastern style food which means plenty of flat breads, healthy salads and tasty dips like humus served in a warm and friendly environment.

For a typical English pub atmosphere, just head north from Chalong circle towards Kata and on the left you will find the Green-Man Inn. The whole building was built to recreate a classic European style inn down to the finest detail of interior décor. The friendly hosts provide classic English pub-grub and live music. Visit the Green-Man for a refreshing pint of ale!
