New bar opening in Sihanoukville - Glory Hole

This is the part of the forum where we discuss Cambodia's nightlife! While most bars, nightclubs, pubs, beer gardens, and hostess bars are in Phnom Penh, we discuss the Cambodian nightlife across all of Cambodia, including Siem Reap, Kampot, and Sihanoukville. The main nightlife areas in Phnom Penh are on Street 136, Street 130, Street 110 and Street 51, but there are other party spots that aren't girlie bars where expats, tourists, and locals drink until the sun comes up. Feel free to post specials and promotions that relate to nighttime fun!

It was great fun, thank you to everyone who came and enjoyed a drink at the bar.

There is nothing left for barang in SNV anymore.

Too many Barang have moved away. Within a week there will only be one of the 9 owners living full time in SHV.

It is not going to get better.

Thanks for your support.

Cheers
wow only 9 months... that was quick
but better to have tried and failed,
than never to have tried at all
if you saw the state SHV is in with the Sino-invasion its not surprising mate, was a nice bar while it lasted
The speed and scale of the Chinese development in Sihanoukville have taken a lot of small businesses by surprise. In a very short time, most of their western customers have left town. All the best everyone.
We need a thread with updates on the remaining Khmer-western friendly food, drink and entertainment venues in Sihanoukville for the die-hards. 8-)

We managed to sell it (cheap) on the last night to a Khmer Lady. I believe she will be keeping it like it is, however I doubt she knows what the name means/implies, LOL.

If you speak to Maurice at McGuinness's he has a very gloomy outlook on the whole thing. There's still a couple of old white duffers wandering around but beer prices have certainly gone up. $1.50 for draught in the One Sister now.

As mentioned earlier I named the bar for the maximum publicity and it worked. Everyone knew about it.

But no matter how well known or good a business is, if your customer base disappears you are screwed.

The five randoms you asked,,,,, were they all on craigslist ?
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.
