Why go, and how to do it well
Sitting at the heart of Patong's nightlife strip, this bar and club on Bangla Road draws a mixed crowd looking for a well-designed space with good music and a social atmosphere. Visitors note the stylish interior, air conditioning, and attentive staff as standout features, and the venue holds up well whether you're dropping in for an afternoon drink or staying deep into the night.
Drinks are reasonably priced for the area, with local beer available at affordable rates and a range of other options on offer. The venue operates as both a bar and club, with DJ performances typically happening later in the evening. A VIP table option exists near the DJ booth, though some visitors have found the pricing for reserved areas less compelling given what's included.
A cover charge has been reported on some nights when a DJ is scheduled, so it's worth checking the website at barfunkphuket.com or confirming on arrival to avoid surprises. Minimum card charges may also apply, so carrying some cash is a sensible idea. The venue is open every day from 10am through to 4am, making it flexible for both early evening visits and late-night sessions. Those who prefer a more relaxed crowd may find the afternoon or early evening hours a better fit than peak weekend nights.

We know and collaborate with the owner since years and know the club even longer. While we all love it and think it's a great club, the owner, who´s a true passionate about his business, already thinks again, how to improve it and how to make it even better.... But not just only the club serves a great experience. We´re lucky to work with the owner since years and working with him is simply amazing. Thanks
Super, polite and quick staff Good music Very stylish interior Air-conditioned Not to many of one kind of people
Great look from outside without any salesmen or bad women inside. Free entrance, asking for 7,500 VIP and 3,000 near DJ tables which I don’t see any value unfortunately. Minimum credit card charge for 500. I ordered extra stuff for this, however the main sushi california didn’t come instead something on the menu come after that, waiter was very rude claiming I ordered this food (someone doesn’t understand English+understand the wrong position of my finger + rude). For some reason they quickly give the bill for me to pay without waiting for the next order or I finish eat. So in order to order the correct food again I need to order minimum 500 again which I believe could be scam by the place or the waiter itself. I think they should fire the rude/scamming staff and increase salary of the quality ones to deserve the value of the place.

Tips for Visiting Nightlife & Bars
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.
Arrange Your Ride Home
Use Grab (ride-hailing app) to get home safely — taxis outside nightlife areas late at night often refuse meters. Set up the app before going out, and keep your phone charged.
