Praça Hua Hin — Thai Izakaya, Beachfront Dining & Cocktails

Praça, at The Standard Hua Hin, offers Thai izakaya-style dining in a beautifully restored beach house once used by Thai royalty. With ocean views, a relaxed ambiance, and award-winning cuisine, it’s perfect for sharing flavorful dishes or enjoying creative cocktails like the bold Fire & Ice by the sea.

Located steps from the beach at The Standard Hua Hin, Praça blends history, elegance, and contemporary Thai cuisine in one unforgettable dining experience. Housed in a beautifully restored beach house once used by Thai royalty, the restaurant features a spacious veranda, cozy terrace, and stunning views over the Gulf of Thailand. Soft evening lighting and the sound of waves create a relaxed, romantic atmosphere that’s perfect for couples, friends, or stylish sundowners.

Open to both resort guests and outside visitors, Praça has earned its spot among Hua Hin’s best restaurants, with awards and top ratings on platforms like TripAdvisor. The menu follows a Thai Izakaya concept, offering shareable plates in a style reminiscent of tapas. It’s all about bold, fresh flavors, locally sourced ingredients, and a creative twist on traditional Thai cuisine.

Although we only stopped by for drinks, the cocktails were exceptional. Our favorite? The Fire & Ice—a bold blend of bourbon, Kahlua, caramel syrup, and hot pepper sauce. Inventive, punchy, and beautifully served.

Whether you’re staying at The Standard or just looking for a standout meal or cocktail in Hua Hin, Praça is a must-visit for food, atmosphere, and beachfront charm.
