Night Life in Siem Reap

PDF Print E-mail  
 
Even though it is a small town at heart, Siem Reap has a rocking nightlife which stretches to near dawn. Around the Psar Chas area, Pub Street restaurants and bars come to life at dusk and the tempo steps up when the street is closed to pedestrian traffic later in the evening.

Happy hour at Pub Street

Happy hour starts early at Pub Street, with the Temple Bar redefining the concept by offering happy hour deals from 10am -10pm. Many places stay open to as late as 4 am.

Hip FCC Angkor overlooks the Siem Reap River and is an offshoot of the Phnom Penh landmark. It has cocktails, wines and a full bar with a price tag of US$3 and upwards. Sophisticated French owned Laundry Bar is an expat hangout. Between drinks, browse through its a huge selection of music albums, which are for sale. For a taste of vintage Shanghai, hop along to Miss Wong.

Along Sivatha Blvd, the ‘it’ place is XBar which has early-evening movies on a big screen, a pool table and attracts late-nite revelers.

Sports Bar on Alley Street is the first sports bar in town. It has a good range of beer for US$1.00 each, a pool table and a chance to watch the games on large screen HD TVs. Uniquely decorated Giddy Gecko is one of the newest lounges in Siem Reap. Refresh with full range of drinks and juices and relax to music while trying out their fruit-flavored water or hookah pipes.

 

Discos and Live Music in Siem Reap

For a local vibe, Zone One, Martini and Son San discos get hopping around 10pm until 2-3am. They attract mainly a young and lively Cambodian crowd, and are excellent places to get to hang out with them.

There is more of a selection these days of live music now that Angkor Palace Resort and Sokha Angkor Resort have Filipino bands playing pop music every evening. Live music can also be heard at the Blarney Stone, Red Orchid and Green Mango.
