POC Bar

I really like this bar. Very friendly and the best cocktails I've had here. Worth the money. A good atmosphere. I'll be back every time I'm in Cambodia.

Absolutely the most horrific experience I’ve ever had at a gay bar. The staff and dancers are lovely and innocent. The owner/DJ is a psychopath, no exaggeration. I requested Whitney, and he originally said ok but only if I buy him a drink. Ummm no. He ended up playing the song which I liked but then said I owed him a drink. I said patrons shouldn’t have to pay for a music request. It escalated quickly and he threw a full drink not once but twice in my face. When I said I shouldn’t pay since he threw multiple drinks in my face he literally drew a bottle out of the cooler and threatened to smash it on me. I paid my full bill out of fear and burst into tears. Never in all my travels of 55 countries have I felt so unsafe and uncomfortable. The owner of this establishment is a horrible human being. The workers are lovely and collateral damage. By far my most horrible experience in my 3 years abroad. Response to owner: I was not rude to the staff or any customers. They were all helping me when you decided to throw 2 drinks in my face. I only used bad words when you were being extremely rude to me and demanding I buy you, the owner who can drink for free, a drink for playing a song. Even still there’s no excuse for an owner to throw 2 drinks in a patron’s face and threaten them with violence. Absolutely disgusting behavior. I would report it to the police if I thought it would make a difference.

Very friendly and reasonable prices. The act makes it worthwhile although at other times it can feel very quiet and parochial for a weekend night.

Wish I could give more stars. We went every single night we were in Phnom Penh. Some of the highest standard shows I’ve ever seen. Amazing staff. Really welcoming. Full of Cambodians - as it should be, of course! But tourists welcome, mostly because everyone there is so bloody lovely. We really found a home away from home here!

1) A patron wouldnt stop physically molesting me all night, and the staff refused to do anything about it. This guy was actively bouncing between 3-5 different guys doing the exact same thing to all of us. When I asked the staff for help, they said oh hes just a regular. And then they did nothing about him repeatedly grabbing my junk, twisting my nipples, trying to put his hand in my pants, following me to the bathroom, and repeatedly taking my drinks out of my hand taking my drinks out of sight and then giving them back to me. I just bought a new drink the first time it happened, but when it all kept happening, I just left. The touching didnt scare me as much bc... well I'm no stranger to a bathhouse or drunk dudes, but at the end of day, the staff did not care that they had a blatant predator making everyone visibly uncomfortable. 2) this bar is for cheap old white guys who want the gogo dancer's attention like they're "Daddy" but they are not going to tip anyone all night. Why does that matter to all patrons? Bc this tiny bar has 20+ employees even on dead nights, and they all treat you like a walking wallet. If thats your thing, then maybe theyll go to the upstairs massage parlor with you. It just wasnt my vibe. The employees are kind, but its exhausting to experience. I like to tip, even just for a little conversation. I respect the hustle. But this was genuinely overstimulating. I wanted to have fun, chat up strangers, watch some drag, and see what the local scene was like. I left feeling completely dehumanized. Ive been to some bad bars that I would go back to in a heartbeat. This is not one of them.
