This laid-back neighbourhood bar (the name means 'no problem' in Taiwanese), painted in warm Mediterranean oranges and reds, features regular live music by local and expat bands, and attracts a similarly mixed crowd. See their Facebook page for schedule. Happy hour until 9pm, and with local brew Red Point on tap, you can't go wrong. Also serves hearty fried pub food.
