IRIE VIBES BAR KANCHANABURI
A laid-back riverside bar on Maenamkwai Road, open every evening for relaxed drinks in Kanchanaburi.
Most of this lot sits on or near Maenamkwai Road or the river, so expect open-air drinking, live music and a slow pace rather than anything polished. Irie Vibes takes the top spot, though Aussie Rules is the one I'd point sport fans toward, and it's cheap with it.
