What it is
Hot Tuna is a rock bar on Walking Street with its front open to the street, so you hear the band before you reach the door. A band plays every night, rock and metal covers, by KQ Bar Pattaya’s September 2026 round-up; Pattaya.Guide’s June 2026 guide to the street says the bands can genuinely play and the crowd comes for them. The same round-up names Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, Dio and Motörhead in the sets.
It is listed here from those two dated 2026 round-ups and Silly Suitcase’s January 2026 travel blog; we found no website or social page of the bar’s own, so nothing here comes from the bar itself.
On the street
Hot Tuna and The Stones House, on the same street, are two of the places there built around a live band: at The Stones House, Thai bands play Thai pop and sing-alongs for a mostly Thai crowd. Drinks at Hot Tuna are priced at a premium for the street, by Pattaya.Guide.
Before you go
The bar publishes no hours we could find, and the times in directories are not its own, so go after dark. Bring photo ID: licensed venues must check that you are 20 or over. 04:00 is the latest a licensed venue may stay open (06:00 on New Year’s Eve). A bar without an entertainment licence may sell alcohol only until midnight; see closing times.
Before and after
After the band, the clubs are a few minutes’ walk away: Club Insomnia, Republic on Soi JP and MYST Club. For more rock, Rock Factory on Soi Buakhao and Lisa on the Beach on Beach Road; all the bands are on live music.
