Nymfiara is a small, tucked-away bar on Soi Xzyte, just behind the old Xzyte area and a short walk from the much busier Soi Buakhao nightlife strip.

Compared with Pattaya’s larger and louder bar complexes, Nymfiara keeps things deliberately intimate. It’s a cosy setup built around drinks, girls and conversation, with a clientele made up largely of international tourists, expats and local regulars. The bar has earned particularly good feedback for its cleanliness, friendly atmosphere and attentive service, giving it a more relaxed, neighbourhood-bar feel than many of the venues on the main nightlife streets.

Nymfiara is also a relatively newer addition to this part of Pattaya, but has settled comfortably into the growing collection of smaller bars around Soi Xzyte. Being slightly removed from the constant traffic of Buakhao gives it a calmer atmosphere, while still leaving the main action only a few minutes away.

A little removed from Pattaya’s biggest bar strips, Nymfiara is proof that sometimes the smaller bars are where you settle in the longest.
