Hot Tuna Bar
Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Dio, Ozzy, Motörhead. Reviewers list them like a set list, and the drummer jokes through his solos.
Checked against Google on 9 September 2026
Pattaya has a rock scene that a town of its size has no right to: a cluster on Soi Buakhao where three loud rooms face each other, two on Walking Street where reviewers list Iron Maiden songs by name, and a house band under our roof that plays the rock everyone can sing. Every room Google lists, ranked, and the set lists people wrote down.

Six rooms, and what people wrote down
Where a Google reviewer named a song, a band or a tribute night, it is here. Where they only said "great band", the room is in the ranked list below and not in this one.
Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Dio, Ozzy, Motörhead. Reviewers list them like a set list, and the drummer jokes through his solos.
A house band every night from nine, a Van Halen tribute in October 2025, requests for a tip, and a room full by eleven.
Heavier: classic metal and hard rock built around a guitarist reviewers name, an open front and a cold sports pub at the back.
Praised for not playing the same tired set every night, which in Pattaya is praise indeed.
The other room reviewers thank for a set that changes, with air-conditioning that got a mention in the same breath.

Google's answer to "rock bar pattaya" on 9 September 2026. Google's idea of a rock bar includes a few beer bars with a loud playlist; they are in, because Google put them in.
A craft beer list, an Indian kitchen, a rooftop and a live band, on Beach Road, open from breakfast to half past three. The music is the second thing reviewers mention after the beer.

A great place to get buffalo wings. The sauce is perfect and so is the cheese dip. They also give you plenty of celery sticks. Sometimes there's live music playing inside (mostly Rock, of course).

Excellent live music bar on Pattaya walking street listening. It’s mainly a rock bar, but they can accommodate a lot of different genres. Also, great view of Insomnia nightclub and I Bar to see if all the hotties are congregating there for later on.
Google review · Kevin Fleming · April 2026
Live rock and heavy metal every night from 9 PM until 2:30 AM, in the bar's own words, with a house band, tribute nights (a Van Halen tribute in October 2025), requests for a tip, a kitchen, and a crowd that fills the room by eleven. Reviewers note there are no bar girls.

Reggae, ska and two-tone with live singers every night, and a stage you are welcome on if you can hold a tune. The second Trench Town; the original on Soi Buakhao opened in 2017. A minute from our door, so the two are easy to pair.

An afternoon bar that turns into rock, pop and Thai songs after sundown, in its own words, with a DJ who sings and sport on the screens. Reviewers compare it with Rock Factory across the road and split on which they prefer.

I went in recently, but the place seemed less active than it did two years ago. Maybe it was just a slow night? Based on my previous visits, the place definitely has possibilities. I'll go back soon to see what's going on.

Ours, declared
MHz Band Thailand play the stage at the back of Las Vegas Beer Garden from 9 PM to 1 AM, Tuesday to Sunday: classic rock, the eighties and nineties, the choruses that come back off the tables. Google does not list the hall as a rock bar and we have not added it to the list above. What we have is the seat: the tables along the stage edge, three metres from the drummer. Do Maiden at Hot Tuna. Do the singalong here.

Asked
Ratings, review counts, categories and hours are Google's on 9 September 2026. The songs and bands named come from Google reviews of each room, as written, with the reviewer's name where we quote one directly on other pages. Our own band is rock and pop covers, not on Google's rock list, and we have left it off.
How to find us
One way in, one way out. Nine bars stand between the gate and us, and each will invite you in. Keep walking.
The big Las Vegas Beer Garden sign, two minutes from LK Metro. Free entry, no ticket, no dress code.
Past Pocket Kings, Palace, the V Bar, Full House, Viva, Aces High, MGN and Black Jack. The music gets louder with every step.
A black disc ringed with bulbs, a gold crown over the K. That's the door. The toilets are just past it, which is why everyone walks by at least once.
KQ has its own pin on Google Maps, separate from the complex. Tap it and the blue dot ends at our bar, not the front gate.
