Shelter
About
On Phuket, Shelter occupies 31 Bangla Rd in Pa Tong, Kathu District, with the postcode 83150. The address places it on the island's busiest resort strip, in the heart of Patong.
Shelter operates as a café, and its setting on one of the main streets of Pa Tong puts it among the bars, restaurants and shops that fill the area. Guests have given it 3.8 out of 5 from 44 reviews, a mixed but recorded response. Patong, Karon, Kata, Kamala, Bang Tao, Rawai, Nai Harn and Chalong are the main resort areas, and Patong is the most developed of them, with roads linking it to the rest of the island.
Thai cooking uses fish sauce, shrimp paste, coconut milk, lemongrass and chillies, with rice as the staple, and the café setting fits into that everyday food culture. Phuket's climate stays warm and humid all year.
Reaching Patong from Phuket's airport or the island's other towns takes a drive along the main roads, and the beach area is well connected to the west coast. Thai is the national language, written in its own script, and it is tonal, so pitch changes word meaning.
