Bua Bar
Thalang, Phuket
Bar in Phuket, Thailand
Why go
Bua Bar is worth booking when the plan is a calm, adults-only cocktail evening in Mai Khao rather than a loud Phuket night out. The draw is the lagoon-side resort setting, modern jazz mood, a white-spirits-focused program with more than 100 premium options, especially useful for gin and tequila drinkers.
About Bua Bar
Bua Bar is a Phuket evening venue with a price of $35 per person and a smart casual dress code.
The useful read is this: consider Bua Bar when you want an evening stop in Phuket and the published hours fit your plans. Skip any assumptions about a specific cuisine, menu format, drinks list, view, seating style, or entertainment setup unless you confirm them directly before going.
A Phuket evening venue with clear hours and a smart casual dress code
Bua Bar’s schedule is direct: Monday through Friday and Sunday from 5–11:30 PM, Saturday from 5–10:30 PM.
The dress code is smart casual. For planning purposes, that makes Bua Bar a better fit for a composed evening out than for a casual, beachwear-first stop, but the page does not have details on the room, seating, menu, or service style.
The most grounded way to evaluate Bua Bar is by matching its confirmed basics to your night: Phuket location, evening hours, $35 per person, smart casual dress. Any more specific claim about what it serves, what it looks like, or what kind of program it runs should be checked directly with the venue.
If those confirmed details work for your evening, Bua Bar can be a simple Phuket option to keep on the shortlist. If you are building a wider plan around dinner or a stay, you can also use our full Phuket restaurants guide and our full Phuket hotels guide for broader Phuket planning.
Treat Bua Bar as a Phuket evening venue with known hours, price, dress code, then confirm any menu, atmosphere, or booking details directly before you go.

Bar context
How Bua Bar compares in Phuket
Choose Bua Bar when ease is the priority, particularly around Mai Khao. Compared with Infinity Bar and Rooftop by Anantara, it is the lower-commitment choice: better for a simple drink worked around dinner, less compelling if the bar itself needs to carry the night.
Rivet & Rebar and Campana Lounge are stronger cross-shops if the brief is ambiance-led rather than convenience-led. Without confirmed pricing or a listed drinks specialty for Bua Bar, value is mainly about avoiding extra travel and planning, not chasing a standout program.
For readers deciding between resort-bar options, 7.8° North Bar is the cleaner comparison if the evening calls for a more deliberate lounge choice. Bua Bar is easier to slot into a Mai Khao itinerary; pick the others when the room, view, or occasion matters more than logistics. For wider Phuket bar planning, compare it with ALTO Cocktail Bar, Amanpuri Bar and Lounge, Aqua Bar.
