Club No 43

Club No. 43 is a cocktail bar in Phuket Old Town on Yaowarat Road — an easy stop after a walk around the neighborhood. The place sticks to a clear concept: it’s all about flavor, presentation, and the story behind each drink, not loud parties.

The main reason to come is the signature cocktails — unexpected flavor pairings, house infusions, touches of smoke, and thoughtfully designed serves. The menu is extensive, with house favorites like Architecture or 43 Old Town, and the bartenders can also make classics on request even if they’re not listed. The team knows their way around spirits, including local options, and will help you choose a drink based on the flavor profile you’re in the mood for. Besides cocktails, they also offer wine and simple snacks such as cashews. Expect to pay around 350 THB per cocktail on average.

Inside, the vibe is intimate and noir: dark, stylish, and cool thanks to the air-conditioning, with good music that’s usually kept at a comfortable volume — though there’s occasionally a DJ. It’s a great spot for a date, a relaxed evening with friends, and long conversations over a couple of drinks.

If you’re not drinking alcohol, they make mocktails too — you can pick the flavor direction, and the presentation stays just as polished and eye-catching.

A couple of things to note: the lighting is quite dim, and service can be inconsistent at times — there may be delays or a slightly curt attitude, especially later in the evening.
