Dibuk House

Top choice in Phuket Town


The tiled floors and flickering candles of a restyled Sino-Portuguese shophouse mark out Phuket Town's most talked-about cocktail bar. Upping the ante for the local artisan-cocktail scene, it's a sultry, moody place, where waistcoat-clad mixologists artfully prepare potent, avant-garde cocktails (250B to 350B) at the mirror-backed bar. The delicate Wynn de Fleur features gin-infused red-berry tea with aloe, lemon and jasmine.
