Reggae Home & Bar

The Reggae Home and Bar in Chiang Rai is truly homely. I felt so comfortable and at ease — to be honest, I even felt a bit spoiled by Niid, the wonderful bartender. On the day I was travelling to Chiang Rai, I was browsing the map for the main town area to decide where to stay. The moment I spotted this bar on the map, I booked a place as close to it as possible. I just knew this was going to be my spot at the end of each day during my two-day stay — and I’m happy to say, I was right. I met a few of the bar guests on both nights I visited. It was exactly the kind of chilled reggae bar I had imagined. Niid was running the show from behind the counter, serving up smashing drinks. On the second evening, I noticed her fixing a curious green drink for herself. Intrigued, I asked if I could have a taste — she smiled and obliged. It turned out to be a fun, lemony gin cocktail finished with a dash of Blue Curaçao to give it its vibrant green tint. Naturally, I ended up ordering a couple of rounds. Just delicious, and such a vibe! My friend played pool with some young Brits who were visiting. The music was spot on, the vibe was relaxed, and everyone felt both welcoming and welcomed all at once. The drinks are very well-priced — you can drink all night without worrying about going broke — and to top it off, Niid is generous with her pours (no measuring cups in sight!). I love a bartender who knows how to pour with heart. Highly recommend this joint to anyone who enjoys a good drink, fun conversation, and some good old reggae music.

The vibe of this bar was amazing. The staff in the bar were so hospital and friendly which made the whole visit very special and appreciated. Me and two other friends from Sweden came here and had a blast! The people in this bar were so nice as well, one of the best nights in Thailand so far! Would strongly recommend this for a place to take a beer or just a place to chat to people :)

This is a really great bar. Excellent sound system, interesting and original decor but what makes it special is the fabulous welcome and superb service. Also, the classic pool table is the focus of friendly, good humoured fun. The best bar we found in Chiang Rai
