Saming Phuket Old town

Saming Phuket Old Town is a bar right in the heart of Phuket Old Town — an easy place to drop by for a single drink or settle in for the whole evening. The venue is split over two levels and thoughtfully designed, with several seating options: air-conditioned seating indoors, plus an outdoor terrace/garden and upstairs spots that are especially pleasant when the weather is cooler.

What really sets it apart is the live music every night. The setlist mixes Thai and English songs, keeping the vibe relaxed and urban rather than flashy or over-the-top. The musicians and singers engage with the crowd — you can request a favorite track, and sometimes even step up to sing with the band. As the night goes on, the show often picks up energy, adding a fun, mini-concert feel.

The drinks menu is varied, with well-balanced cocktails, promo sets, and draft beer served in different formats (including small glasses, pitchers, and beer “towers”). Food-wise, you’ll find Thai dishes alongside simple bar snacks like wings, nuts, and fries. For dinner, many people go for pork with rice, and one standout is the house specialty featuring a century egg. Prices are generally reasonable, and the service is quick and attentive.

A couple of things to keep in mind: mosquitoes can be an issue on the open terrace (repellent helps), and the quality of certain dishes — or the sound on the stage — may vary from time to time. When ordering drinks, it’s also worth confirming the details of any promotions and what’s included before you buy.
