10 Top Bars in Siem Reap for Great Evening Experiences

Many central cities in southeast Asia are famous for their vibrant and exciting nightlife and bar districts. Siem Reap's nightlife has always been one of the top competitors in the region, and continues to offer perfect venues for entertainment and relaxation after a long day's travel and sightseeing.

Where to Go for Bars in Siem Reap

When visiting popular bar districts in Siem Reap, or Cambodia in general, of course it is best just to stroll along the main street and pick out the venue that fits your liking, or seems to be the liveliest. Siem Reap's most famous such street, is simply called "Pub Street", and is perfect for bar-hopping.

Due to the large and seemingly endless variety of bars to choose from, however, finding the perfect one may seem overwhelming, and you can spend many evenings searching and filtering out common bars from the really great ones. If you want to minimize your chance of disappointment, and get straight to the great ones, there are several bars that have consistently provided tourists and visitors with great and memorable experiences, with superior services, and better all-around quality.

Below you can find 10 of our top bar picks in Siem Reap, that are bound to leave a great impression on you, as you sip on your Margarita or beer late in the evening!

Address: Street 7

5. Naga Bar

Are you all about the quality? Then you should come here. This bar offers exquisite cocktails, and unique dining choices, at reasonable prices. The atmosphere is not as loud, and is more suited for sitting down with friends or family for a comfortable pre-dinner cocktail and chat.
