Morning Routine: Enjoy Our Buffet and Coffee at Happyman Cafe

The food journey at Kata begins bright and early. While many of our guests love starting their day with our delicious hotel buffet breakfast, we know that coffee lovers always want to explore local cafes in the morning.

We highly recommend adding Happyman Cafe Kata Beach to your personal happyman food guideroutine. This cute, trendy cafe is located just a 1-minute walk from Sugar Marina FASHION. It is very close to the beach and serves excellent coffee, teas, fresh fruit juices, and freshly baked bakery items.

Our favorite tip? Eat your morning buffet breakfast at the hotel first, and then take a short 1-minute stroll over to Happyman Cafe to sit back, relax, and enjoy a premium morning brew.
