Anchor Bar
Bars in Chalong rarely stray from the ubiquitous combination of bar stools, darts board and/or pool table, fairy lights and bar hostesses, and are mostly frequented by local expats. At night the road that leads to the pier lights up with local bars, cafes and restaurants. Not far from the Chalong Circle heading to the pier, look out for Anchor Bar which is one of the long-time venues in Ao Chalong. It is a friendly place in which to chill for a beer or two. They also have a good menu with Thai and western food.
- Opening Hours: Daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner
- Location: Near the Chalong Circle heading toward the pier

The Lighthouse (formerly Jimmy’s Lighthouse)
Chalong is a great place to simply hang out and have a sundowner. At dusk when the boats return from the day's seafaring the scene gets lively. Along the waterfront are plenty of local eateries and laid-back bars. The Lighthouse is an old established yachties' hangout with great views over the harbour. Serving both local and international food, the Lighthouse is a kind of nautical saloon with zodiac dinghies tied up in front.
- Opening Hours: For breakfast, lunch and dinner
- Location: From the Chalong traffic circle make a turn toward the pier then turn left at the pier passing the public car park, carry on until almost the end of the road, where you will notice this striking white lighthouse
