Other Venues in Pham Ngu Lao
Le Pub
Long-running expat bar tucked down an alley off Pham Ngu Lao. Pool tables, darts, and reasonably priced drinks make it a steady gathering spot for backpackers.
Spotted Cow
Australian-style pub on De Tham Street serving cold beers and pub food. More laid-back than the Bui Vien strip, with sports on TV and a mixed expat-tourist crowd.
Allez Boo
Two-story bar at the corner of Pham Ngu Lao and De Tham that's been open since the early 2000s. Happy hour deals draw an early evening crowd and the balcony offers good people-watching.
Long Phi Bar
Budget bar on Pham Ngu Lao with sidewalk seating and 15,000 VND bia hoi. Gets busy with backpackers pre-gaming before heading to Bui Vien.
