All three of these supermarkets are a good place to food shop, but we base our supermarket choice on best value and convenience.

One special tip… shop for all your basic food staples such as frozen food, meats, dairy products, canned goods, breads and pastries at the supermarket and buy all your fruits and vegetables at the local open markets... This will equal a “HUGE” savings.

Here are our best methods to really reduce to your Phuket food bill...


Big C Supercenter Phuket

This is our favorite of all the Phuket supermarkets. The Big C has the largest variety of both local and western food. We buy almost all of our frozen and canned foods at this supermarket. You can also find an assortment of other non-food items; electronics, clothing, vision, drug store, etc.

We bought our refrigerator here at a very good price, and had it delivered on the same day! Excellent customer service!

  • Value: You’ll save big here
  • Convenience: Very easy to get to and find parking
  • Best Time to go: During the week and just when they open at 9:00 am. The weekends are the peek days, with huge crowds.
