Phnom Penh: Bars & Nightspots
Phnom Penh is a surprisingly good little party town offering a dusk till dawn nightlife and a variety of places from which to choose - from dance clubs and sports bars to neighborhood pubs and upscale clubs. Bars and clubs are scattered across the town and as Phnom Penh is not all that large, it’s never more than a five or ten minute ride between places, usually less. And there are several little clusters of bars and nightspots around town allowing you to stroll easily from one to the next.
The riverfront area has the greatest number and variety of places with dozens of bars and restaurants stretching along Sisowath Quay. At the north end of the riverfront area, Street 104 harbors a growing cluster of sports bars and good restaurants. And there is another little huddle of hostess bars at the corner of Street 108 and Norodom Blvd. Late night, especially very late night, Street 51 between Streets 154 and 174 is the place to be. More than a dozen bars including the Walkabout, Shanghai and Heart of Darkness are squeezed along a couple of blocks. The street’s busiest after midnight with some places open past 4:00AM. Street 51 is also the place to get a midnight snack. The Walkabout kitchen is open 24 hours and there are a couple of food wagons serving burgers, skewers and hot dogs that sit in front of Howie Bar and stay open till 4:30AM.
For live music check out the Bayon Pearnik magazine and the back page of the Friday Cambodia Daily. Regular places include the lobby bar in InterContinental Phnom Penh (popular music), Riverside Bistro (rock, ballads), Bopha Phnom Penh Titanic and the very popular Riverhouse Lounge with a live jazz band on Sundays, Friday DJs and other musical happenings throughout the week. |
