About

Rainforest is the little cocktail den everyone ends up talking about on Koh Lipe’s Walking Street. It’s a cozy, artful room with an angled bar that naturally pulls strangers into conversation, plus an upstairs perch that lets you watch the flow of island life below. Closer to Pattaya Beach than Sunrise, it’s an easy stop on your way back from the sand. Drinks are the draw. The team leans into craft techniques and sustainability, and the classics come out strong — their Negroni has a loyal fan club for a reason. Expect fresh, tropical flavors alongside proper stirred-and-strong numbers, all mixed with care and served without fuss. Swing by after dinner when the island’s mellow party mood kicks in. The crowd is a friendly mix of divers, beach walkers, and return visitors who know this is where conversations start and plans get made for tomorrow’s snorkel run. It’s an intimate space with good energy — the kind of bar you plan to pop into for one drink and end up closing down.
