Nicky's Handlebar

Hat Patong


This fun biker bar welcomes all, wheels or not. Once a bit of a dive, Nicky's has never looked better. There's a good selection of beers and the menu encompasses Western and Thai cooking, including what the team claims is Thailand's spiciest burger. You can go for a ride here by asking about Harley tours and hire.
