About Us

Southern Thai restaurant in a converted Flinders Lane pub between Swanston and Elizabeth streets, opened in 2023 by Chumphon-born Boonruxsa Sangmanee (Milky) and Masarat Bumrungpongsinchai (Hally), who also run Pinto Thai Food on Exhibition Street (Broadsheet; What's On Melbourne). The menu pairs Phuket and southern plates — gorlae grilled chicken, hor mok fish custard, spicy sour yellow curry with lotus stems and barramundi — with pad thai, tom yum and Melbourne-style fried chicken (Broadsheet; Time Out). Sino-Portuguese cobalt-blue interiors and vintage crockery seat roughly forty across two levels. Google Maps, Apple Maps and MapQuest list the 271 Flinders Lane pin open in 2026 with recent diner activity; patongthairestaurant.com.au remains a parked domain with no live operator site on research attempt 0.
