Phnom Penh Nightlife

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!

Are you asking about drinking and whoring, drug taking, fine dining/street dining or taking a relaxing foot massage?

It's as exciting as your wallet and charm can make it.

So your saying Cmabodia is better, not having all those horrible places you mentioned :-) I have definitely seen bigger rats in Bangkok than Phnom Penh, but Phnom Penh probably has a few more

You are a guy who tells this forum that you don't go to bars, so what exactly is your knowledge of the current or recent history bar scene in Phnom Penh to comment on it. Old guy nursing a beer in Larry's once month. Tony called you out in Snooky years ago, all mouth but no current experience.

Stiick to Phuket for the advice if anyone wants to go there. I
Yes sir, I can boogie, I can boogie, boogie, boogie all night long.
