Tiki Bar Bang Niang
Tucked inside the lively Bang Niang Market in Khao Lak, this tiki bar brings a relaxed, tropical drinking atmosphere to one of Phang Nga's most popular coastal areas. The setting draws on classic tiki aesthetics, making it a natural fit for travellers looking to unwind after a day on the Andaman coast without venturing far from the local market scene. Visitors can expect a casual, welcoming vibe with mid-range pricing that keeps it accessible for most budgets. The bar sits within the market itself, meaning the surrounding energy of food stalls and evening foot traffic adds to the atmosphere rather than detracting from it. It works well as a starting point for the evening or a place to settle in for the night. Good to know: Tiki Bar Bang Niang opens at 3pm daily and closes at midnight, making it a solid choice for an afternoon drink as well as a late-evening session. Since it is located within Bang Niang Market, arriving earlier in the evening allows visitors to explore the market stalls before things wind down. The bar has a website at tikibarbangniang.com where current events or specials may be listed.

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.
