Hot Tuna Bar

Hot Tuna is a live rock bar on Walking Street in South Pattaya, open to the street and running bands every night of the week. The house band and a female lead singer play loud, tight covers of classic rock and metal, and requests are welcome.

The bar has been a fixture of the Walking Street music scene for years and draws a mix of tourists, expats and Thai rock fans. Weekends bring a bigger crowd, so arriving from around 8pm helps to get a seat.

Hot Tuna opens at 7pm and stays open until 3:30am. Drinks are priced for Walking Street rather than for a back soi, so it is worth checking the menu. It holds a Google rating of 4.5 from more than 1,800 reviews.
