A superb spot to have a quiet drink or nibble in the afternoon. The setting and the decor is nothing like I've ever seen. A must do in LP. More

Went for drinks & a shisha which were both overpriced but the atmosphere was great. Low tables, YouTube movies projected on a big screen. Lots of activities like board games & volleyball. Good music too! More

A great place to chill out, when you arrive here walk towards the back and rest on cushions on the deck watching the sun set on the river. The food is great, service is wonderful and the vibe the best in Luang Prabang. Its not cheap for backpackers but worth the splurge. The garden is a delight....love love love More

That's a place to be if you are into drinking and socialising with everybody from everywhere in the globe. One of the "fake Asian style" places travellers love so much. Sitting on the floor, wooden funrniture, popular (mostly Western) music. Great place to unwind and forget about the moaral norms of the country for a little while. More

Had drinks here after dinner at Dyen Sabai. The location is off the beaten track, through a very residential neighbourhood in downtown but fairly easy to find with a number of signs marking the way. It is a fabulous place.... Huge outdoor lounge, tables on the riverbank and a massive sand volleyball court. We only wished that we went on... More
