Café 8.98 Ao Nang — Restaurant in Krabi Province

Average at best and saw the coffee ordered by others and looks like it wasn’t professional with lots of foam hence decided against it.

We had the basque burnt cheesecake, eggs Benedict with croissant and the pan eggs and all three was a bit disappointing to say the least with portion sizes and the prices reflected. I am in awe that people say this is a good place, either they haven’t had a proper brunch in Australia or some place decent or maybe they are just use to paying their money for average food.

1st off a major red flag already. The pan eggs didn’t came with any toast at all and they wanted to charge 40baht for toast in Thailand. What a joke when you can walk down the street and get a pad Thai for the same price. I know this is a tourist spot and only tourist frequent this cafe but still a complete let down.

2nd, the Basque burnt cheesecake texture was too firm and rigid and don’t feel like a basque burnt cheesecake at all and more like a New York cheesecake without the crust. If people have had basque burnt cheesecake on the basque region of Spain they would know what I’m talking about.

The eggs Benedict with croissant was simply just torn apart carelessly and drop 2 poach eggs on the top with the sauce a a few leaves of rocket salad, a complete letdown with food presentation and portions.

There is better options along the street so walk along and check out the other western brunch spots.

They also have a 10% service charge as well on top of the bill.

100% Won’t recommend. Walk down the street to get your three eggs for 30 baht instead and go for the 7-11 coffee to save your money worth. The only good and positive thing here is they accept card and the decor is decent. Over and...

Everything came very insta-worthy and looked delectable, but a word-for-the-wise, thats just about the size of it. Ordered Oven baked eggs, eggs benedict with bacon and their brunch special. Eggs benny according to my friend was pedestrian at best,with hard to chew bacon and bland tasting croissant. My own brunch special was mediocre with normal scrambled eggs,very bland tasting mushrooms and a yes,chewy and hard bacon strips. Smoked salmon waa palatable but otherwise forgettable. But i was hungry so wolfed it all down,taste notwithstanding. Picolo latte was very good though,so that was a good solid point in their favour. The purple looking yogurt power drink looked awesome but was just meh in the taste department. My friend had to swallow it down fast as he could just to get it over and done with. Springs rolls were pretty awful in taste,it just tasted like frozen instant food,flashed fried in day-old oil that has seen better days. Pricing was very much on the high side,with the total bill coming up to 1400Thb. Not worth the price-point in my book. Service was actually the saving grace,with very efficient,polite and smiley wait staff.

Overhyped, IMHO.

Food Rating: 5/10 (Mediocre at best)

Service: 7.5/10 (Saving grace)

Vibes: 6.0/10 (tables too close for comfort, not enuff fans on a swelteringly hot day)

Price point: 2.5/10 (Way Overpriced in my book)

Overall...

Bunch of CHEATS.

Diluted lemonade with a hint of the taste. Crazy to think that frozen peaches were served on top of the peach-lychee lemonade when there’s fresh fruits available everywhere. It tasted blend as heck too. I don’t care where and how the fruits were imported but if your customers are paying 154 baht for a damn lemonade, you better be using fresh ingredients.

All the reviews on here were absolutely spot on w/ regards to the serving size. Look at the amount of ice they filled just so it makes your drink appear full. Let me remind everyone here again, it costs 154 baht. 154 for a pathetic portion. Truly disgusting cheats.

The disappointment doesn’t stop here. You’ll be given a soft bendable biodegradable straw which you’re expected to scoop up the lychee which was at the bottom of the drink instead of being served a spoon. If you’re making customers pay service charge, the least you could do is get your staff to serve properly and havs the proper utensils ready for specific items on the menu.

Speaking of serving properly, please get that obese lady staff of your’s to learn how to smile instead of looking grumpy the whole time.

And oh, hope the money you ripped off of your customers can be used to fix your toilet’s flush handle in the ladies. If you’re not good at fixing your menu, maybe you can start off learning how to fix your...
