AFTERSUN Music Bar
Situated along Thanon Utarakit in Krabi's Pak Nam district, AFTERSUN Music Bar doubles as a genuinely strong dining destination alongside its role as an evening music venue. Visitors consistently praise the Thai food as a highlight in its own right, with rice dishes, generous portions, and flavourful cooking drawing repeat diners throughout their stay in Krabi. The atmosphere strikes a balance between energetic and relaxed, with live music providing a lively backdrop without overwhelming conversation.
The venue draws a mix of travellers and locals, and the service earns particular praise for being attentive throughout the evening. Prices sit slightly above comparable spots in the area, though reviewers broadly agree the food and drink quality justifies the difference. For those with dietary restrictions or vegetarian requirements, options are noted as limited, so it is worth checking ahead.

Reviews from Google
Food was fantastic and the place has a chill vibe with excellent service, staff were always available and my flass never ran dry. More expensive than similar restaurants, but the quality makes up for the cost, I will be coming back in the near future.
I’ve been traveling around Thailand for months and this is the best food I’ve had by FAR. Wandered upon it walking the streets in Krabi, and everything was absolutely amazing. The food, the people, the atmosphere. I HIGHLY recommend!
Amazing food, music and service. Reasonable prices and good thai food. I really enjoyed the live music! Highly recommended!

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.
