Don't get there before 9 pm but after 10.30 you'll find yourself standing. Open till late, the attached mini-golf rates itself as one of the wildest on Phuket. Gets an award for cutest staff uniforms. Patong Beach Gonzo Bar Bang La Road, Patong. This large bar is very popular with a mixed bag of farangs and can get pretty lively later into the night.
Prices are cheap and service friendly.
Banana Disco On Beach Road above the same-named bar. The Banana Disco certainly contains no surprises with standard nightclub and attire. Drinks cost a bit more and don't bother showing up before midnight unless you want to beat the staff in.
