Tree Town is an open-air bar and food complex on Soi Buakhao: dozens of small bars, street food and live music overlapping in one compound. More festival courtyard than bar street, and there is no charge to walk in.

No licensed courtyard photo of Tree Town is in this set. The photo is CentralFestival on Beach Road; Tree Town is inland on/near Soi Buakhao.
What it is
A gated compound of small open-front bars arranged around lanes, with food stalls between them and several stages. Bars are independent, so each has its own prices and its own band, and the music from two of them often overlaps where you are sitting.
You pay only for what you order. There is no cover to enter the complex and no minimum spend, which is the main thing separating it from a night on Walking Street.
What it costs
| Item | Typical range |
|---|---|
| Local beer | 60–130 THB |
| Spirit and mixer | 120–200 THB |
| Food stall plate | 80–200 THB |
| Entry | None |
| An evening with food and four beers | about 500–900 THB |
Checked October 2026 against venue listings and recent visitor reports. Full table: Pattaya nightlife prices.
Best for
- A casual evening of food and beer without a Walking Street bill.
- Groups who want different things: bands, pool, food and quiet corners are all inside.
- Starting the night before Walking Street fills up after 22:00.
- Live music without a cover charge.
Atmosphere and timing
- Lively and noisy; several bars play at once, so the far corners are quieter.
- Fills from about 18:00 and runs late, earlier than Walking Street.
- Bands usually start around 20:00–21:00.
- Open-air, so a heavy rain shower empties the lanes for a while.
Against Walking Street
| Tree Town | Walking Street | |
|---|---|---|
| A beer | 60–130 THB | 150–250 THB |
| Entry | None | Cover at some clubs |
| Busy from | 18:00 | 22:00 |
| Music | Live bands, several at once | Clubs and live venues |
| Pressure | Low | Touts at the entrance |
Tips
- Walk the whole complex once before sitting. Prices and crowds vary bar to bar inside the same compound.
- Cash. Most of the small bars do not take cards.
- Bars keep a slip in a cup on your table; read it before you pay.
- Combine it with Soi Buakhao on the same evening — they are adjacent.
- Use it as the start of the night, then move to Walking Street if you want clubs.
