O'Kane's Irish Pub : โอเคน ไอริชผับ แอนด์ เรสเตอร์รองท์

4.7(735 reviews)$$$$

A familiar face in Chiang Rai's nightlife scene, this Irish pub and restaurant sits on Soi Thai Viwat in the Wiang district, offering a comfortable retreat for travellers seeking Western-style hospitality without straying far from the town centre. The combination of pub atmosphere and full restaurant service makes it a versatile stop, whether the plan is a casual lunch, a proper sit-down dinner, or a relaxed evening with drinks. The menu covers Western comfort food alongside broader options, and the bar delivers the kind of sociable, unhurried vibe associated with Irish pubs. The space works equally well for solo travellers looking to meet people, small groups unwinding after a day of sightseeing, or anyone simply craving something familiar mid-trip. Pricing sits in the mid-range, making it an accessible option without feeling like a budget compromise. Good to know: the venue opens at 9:00 AM every day of the week and stays open until midnight, which gives plenty of flexibility for visits at any point in the day. It functions as both a morning cafe and an evening bar, so there is no need to time a visit too carefully. Checking the Facebook page before heading over is worthwhile for anyone wanting to confirm current menus, daily specials, or any scheduled events.

Tips for Visiting Nightlife & Bars

Carry Your Passport or a Copy

Clubs and some bars check IDs strictly, especially in Bangkok's Thonglor, RCA, and Sukhumvit areas. A photo of your passport info page on your phone usually works, but carrying a laminated photocopy is safer.

Know the Closing Times

Legal closing time is 2 AM for most venues, though enforcement varies. In Bangkok's designated entertainment zones (RCA, Silom Soi 2/4, Khao San), some clubs stay open until 4 AM. Islands tend to be more relaxed about hours.

Buy Bucket Drinks Cautiously

Island bucket drinks (mixed spirits in a small bucket) are cheap and fun but notoriously strong and inconsistent. Stick to one, stay hydrated, and never leave your drink unattended at beach parties.
