Welcome to Skugga Cafe & Bar, a slice of paradise nestled in the scenic beauty of Ko Kut, Trat, Thailand. This charming café is not just a place to grab a drink; it’s an experience that invites you to unwind, savor, and take in the breathtaking views.

As you step into Skugga Cafe, you are greeted by a beautifully designed space that boasts a lovely aesthetic, perfect for retreating from the sun after a day of island adventures. Imagine sipping a rich cappuccino while gazing out at picturesque beach views from the nearby Tolani resort beach. It’s a scene that feels almost postcard-perfect.

The café offers a selection of delightful beverages, including a standout espresso with brown sugar that will cradle your senses in its smooth warmth. Customers have been raving about the coffee here, with one mentioning, “Great coffee from Chiang Mai can be found at this island.” Your taste buds will dance with pleasure, particularly if you choose one of their delicious coffees to accompany a sweet treat. One satisfied customer, Shana Luckings-Maurice, described the cappuccino as “delicious” and is eager to return for more. And while the culinary experiences are certainly satisfying, it’s worth noting that prices are somewhat elevated, which is typical for such stunning island locales!

For those with a craving for something savory, Skugga Cafe also serves a tantalizing Thai menu. One enthusiastic patron shared, “Very tasty Thai menu and the 3 bottles of Chang for 159 baht made it all the better,” showcasing not just the quality of food but the great value offered. This establishment is one of the few bars that stay open late, making it an ideal spot to kick back after a day of beach hopping or exploring.

What truly sets Skugga Cafe apart is the atmosphere. The inviting air-conditioned space allows you to cool off while still reveling in the island’s laid-back vibe, as mentioned by Nunticha V, who appreciated the delightful ambiance to relax and enjoy. However, be prepared for the possibility of slower service during busier times, as highlighted by Théo Zwahlen, who noted that dishes may not arrive simultaneously if dining with a group.

To wrap up your visit, consider taking a leisurely stroll along the beach, soaking in the warm breeze and spectacular sunset views after your meal. Skugga Cafe & Bar makes for a perfect stop where relaxation meets culinary delight amidst the natural beauty of Ko Kut. Whether you're a coffee connoisseur or just looking for a cozy spot to unwind, this café promises a memorable experience that captures the essence of island life.

This coffee shop was nice to sit and enjoy the view. The coffee was decent by comparison to other places. In Bangkok I’d give this place a 3 but there isn’t a lot of coffee option on the island, hence the 4.

Cute cafe with lovely aesthetic! The cappuccino was delicious - would go back for sure! Just across from the beach also it’s a lovely little spot for a bite to eat or a coffee and cake :)

++ The food is great. -- The services are not good, a lot of waiting for certain dishes, if you go to more than one person you will not be served at the same time. Nothing special. +One of the few bars that open late (until midnight)
