Club No. 43
Phuket’s first mixology-style bar, Club No. 43 commands a cool presence in a Sino-Portuguese style shophouse. The bar’s mixologists are very good at their craft, and able to create customized drinks based on guest’s preferences.
Dim lighting, large red roses in Hendricks bottles and faint background music really complete the dark and moody ambiance of the bar. Expect the unexpected at Club No. 43 where drinks are made from locally sourced ingredients and served in unique containers.
