Bobby Bar | Khon Kaen
Tucked inside the Hangovers complex on Thanon Mittraphap in central Khon Kaen, Bobby Bar is a well-regarded drinking spot that draws both locals and travellers looking for a relaxed night out in the city. Its consistently strong reputation points to a venue that gets the basics right — a comfortable atmosphere, decent drinks, and the kind of crowd that keeps people coming back. As part of the Hangovers project, the bar benefits from a social, communal setting that makes it easy to settle in for the evening. Whether visitors are looking for a casual drink after exploring the city or a place to start the night, Bobby Bar fits the bill as a mid-range option that doesn't require a big spend to enjoy. Good to know: Bobby Bar opens at 10:00 in the morning and runs through to midnight, seven days a week, making it one of the more accessible spots in Khon Kaen regardless of the day. The early opening hours mean it doubles as a daytime drinking option, though evenings tend to suit the bar atmosphere best. No website is listed, so visitors should head directly to the Hangovers complex on Mittraphap Road rather than trying to book or confirm details online in advance.

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.
