What a fun way to enjoy the nightlife in Siem Reap! We visited based on the locals' recommendation, and we had a blast! Coming from New York, we appreciate a lively atmosphere and strive to immerse ourselves with the locals as much as possible when we travel. There was no entrance fee, but cocktails and beer were priced at $5.50 to account for the entertainment. The show featured fantastic performances. Unfortunately, they ran out of popcorn early in the evening, but I was pleasantly surprised that my Negroni tasted strong!Darren Barton

Honestly, it’s one of the best drag show experiences I’ve had to date. These queens weren’t simple “good local queens”, they were excellent!! Completely unexpected, totally surprised! Performance is endless, performers are on their top game, ever so energetic, nonstop, just astonishing! The entire vibe of the bar is open, welcoming and feels like community. There were gay, straight, trans, non binary people all mingling together and enjoying the performances. One performer was a STUNT queen. Outstanding. Another was comedy gold including the straight family visiting. Our favorite was a truly gifted choreographer and dancer. Definitely a must visit, if you’re into drag!Kaelan Cooter

Seriously the best drag performances I've seen, and I've seen several in the US and Europe. I was not expecting that from here but I was blown away! Nice, well priced drinks and friendly staff. The whole place looks very classy. Lots of tourists of course but my local gay tour guide recommended it so the locals must like it too. We got there at 9 and it was rather empty but it quickly filled up. Bring lots of $1s! I particularly loved the male backup dancers, that's a cool touch I haven't seen elsewhere. Also, a drag king! Love it!Felix Leupold

Amazing, fast paced drag show with entertaining performances and beautiful outfits. Very talented drag artists, great sound-system and tasteful lighting. Cocktails are very tasty too. Come early, don’t miss a performance.Kenneth Cheng

Wow, what a sight to behold. I believe this is one of the few LGBTQI bars still running post COVID. The lineup was strong, it was continuous drag shows and dancers the whole time we were there on a Tuesday night (Wednesday morning). The crowd was not too excessive, possibly because it was only the stray tourist that were out and about on the weekday. The drag shows were phenomenal, some of the most 'powerful' and talented people strutting their art. What a wonderful find in Siem Reap Cambodia!Rany Vorn

Siem Reap is a safe place for LGBTQ communities, while searching for a bar! I found a Barcode on google maps! First experience and I went back again a day after! Like the drink I had “Krissna cocktails” and great performance!Scott Nguyễn

It was so much fun. Better and actually classier than pub street. The later in the night the better. We came at 8:40 and the show doesn’t start until 9pm. We watched the place gradually getting crowded and the show getting better and more excitingEric Christophe

Fabulous place very Frenchy colonial decor. The show is very professional and entertaining starts early and keeps going all evening. The ambiance is friendly and relax. Price on drinks are reasonable. If you want to have a fun evening with some entertainment then this is the place to go. So many options in Siem Reaps for night life but this one is to be done regardless your sexual orientation
