Sabaidee restaurant, bar & café

4.8(83 reviews)$$$$

Sabaidee restaurant, bar and café brings a laid-back, welcoming vibe to Koh Samet's social scene, drawing in both locals and travellers looking for a comfortable spot to unwind. Open seven days a week from morning through to midnight, it covers a lot of ground — functioning as a café for early risers, a restaurant through the day, and a bar as the evening rolls in, making it a flexible choice whatever the hour. Visitors can expect a casual, unhurried atmosphere that suits the island's easy pace. The mid-range pricing makes it accessible without feeling like a compromise, and its consistently positive reception suggests the kitchen and bar hold up well across its long trading hours. Whether stopping in for a coffee, a meal, or a drink at night, the place tends to deliver a genuinely relaxed experience rather than a rushed tourist-trap feel. Good to know: Sabaidee is open daily from 09:00 until midnight, so it works equally well as a morning stop or a late-night wind-down. As it functions across multiple roles throughout the day, it can get busier in the evenings, particularly on weekends. There is no website listed, so booking ahead is not an option — arriving early in the evening is a practical way to secure a good spot.

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.
