Great little bar friendly staff and it's on the street so you can watch the world go by while having a beer. Also great for a chat with the owner Tam very knowledgeable about the area as he's been a resident in Songkhla for 20+ years.

We did a trip on a long tail boat around Songkhla Lake at around 5PM. it was a perfect time as it has cool down abit. It was interesting to see the old town area from the water.
