Khubani Rooftop Bar and Restaurant خوباني

4.8(1,512 reviews)

Perched above Thaweewong Road in the heart of Patong, this rooftop venue brings together Indian and Turkish cuisine, handcrafted cocktails, and live music in an open-air setting that draws both food lovers and night-out crowds. The elevated position lifts diners clear of the street-level bustle, creating a noticeably more relaxed atmosphere than many of Patong's ground-floor options. The kitchen turns out dishes like butter chicken alongside a menu broad enough to satisfy varied tastes, while the bar programme is a clear highlight — visitors frequently single out signature cocktails such as the Khubani and Nightmare as standouts worth ordering. The venue also functions as a live music and event space, which gives evening visits a livelier energy, particularly later in the night. Wine by the bottle is noted by regulars as surprisingly affordable, adding to the overall value. Open daily from noon through to 1:00 AM, the venue suits everything from a relaxed lunch to a late-night session after exploring Patong. The sunset window tends to be the most popular time, so booking ahead is strongly recommended during peak season, especially for groups. Comfortable casual attire is appropriate, and the address on Thaweewong Road makes it easy to reach on foot or by tuk-tuk from most Patong accommodations. Check the website for event listings before visiting.

Visitor Reviews

I had a great experience at Khubani Rooftop Bar and Restaurant. The atmosphere was warm and relaxing, and the staff were very friendly. They have a signature cocktail called “Khubani,” which was honestly so good that I went back another night just to have it again! I wish I knew the recipe so I could make it myself — it’s hard to come all the way back to Thailand just for one drink 😂 They also had a belly dancer, which made the night really fun, and the DJ created a great vibe. The food was delicious too. Overall, it was a lovely place and I’d definitely recommend it.

A good place for evening gatherings with friends! I was very pleased. Cocktails deserve special praise — they are diverse, tasty and well served. The atmosphere on the roof is simply gorgeous: pleasant music, friendly atmosphere and stunning views of the city create ideal conditions for relaxation and good mood. I will definitely come back here

What a place! I ordered the butter chicken which turned out to be one of the best I've had. The service was quick and the food was delicious. I highly recommend this place for anyone that enjoyed Turkish food or Indian . The drinks and food are priced well. One of my top picks for Phuket.

Tips for Visiting Restaurants & Food

Learn the Spice Scale

Say 'mai pet' for no spice, 'pet nit noi' for a little spice, or 'pet mak' if you want it Thai-hot. Most cooks will default to a toned-down version for foreigners unless you specify otherwise.

Follow the Crowds

The busiest street stalls are almost always the best — high turnover means fresh ingredients and a recipe that locals vouch for. An empty restaurant at dinner time is a red flag.

Ice Is Safe

Factory-made tube or cylinder ice (used in virtually all restaurants and stalls) is made from purified water and is safe to consume. You don't need to skip the iced Thai tea.
