Tipsy Cocktail Bar & restaurant
Tucked into the laid-back Sritanu neighbourhood of Koh Phangan, Tipsy Cocktail Bar & Restaurant draws a loyal crowd with its relaxed atmosphere and well-crafted drinks menu. Open every night of the week, it strikes a balance between being a proper dining spot and a social bar worth lingering in, making it a solid choice for those who want a full evening out in one place rather than hopping between venues. The bar is known for its creative cocktail selection, and the dual identity as both a restaurant and a bar means visitors can settle in for dinner before transitioning into a more relaxed drinking session as the night picks up. The vibe leans relaxed and sociable rather than full-on party scene, fitting well with the slower pace of Sritanu compared to the more hectic Haad Rin end of the island. Mid-range pricing keeps it accessible without feeling budget. Good to know: Tipsy opens at 6pm every night and runs until 2am, making it equally suited to an early dinner or a late-night drink. It sits in Sritanu, which is on the west coast of Koh Phangan, so visitors staying in that area will find it a convenient neighbourhood spot. Checking the website at tipsykpg.com before visiting is worthwhile for current menu details or any special 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.
