The Extend Bar

Tucked along Ratvithi Road near Chiang Mai's Old City, The Extend Bar is a casual neighbourhood karaoke bar that draws a sociable mix of locals and travellers looking for an unpretentious night out. The venue leans heavily into its karaoke offering, running sessions from early evening through to the early hours, which creates an inclusive, anything-goes atmosphere where seasoned performers and enthusiastic amateurs share the same stage. Visitors can expect cold drinks, premium spirits including popular brands like Captain Morgan, and a happy hour running from 5 PM to 9:30 PM that makes for an affordable start to the evening. The crowd tends to be relaxed and friendly, and the bar's open-all-week schedule from 5 PM to 4 AM means it works equally well as a warm-up venue or a late-night anchor point. The central location puts it within easy reach of Old City accommodation and the broader Nimman and Night Bazaar areas. Good to know: The karaoke queue can be unpredictable during busier periods, with some guests reporting that song requests don't always make it to the stage, so arrive earlier in the evening if getting a turn at the mic matters to you. The bar accepts card payments, though it is worth confirming any card surcharge before settling your bill.
