Craft cocktailsby the river
An intimate riverside bar where fresh-pressed cocktails meet shared tapas and live open-stage nights - in the heart of Vang Vieng.
About
A riverside room with a short, serious drinks list
Nestled in the vibrant heart of Vang Vieng, just moments from the tranquil Nam Song River, Lime Lounge pours exceptional cocktails built on premium spirits and fresh local ingredients - where authentic Lao flavour meets international craft.
Our menu is deliberately short so every drink is made properly: fresh juices, house infusions, and one perfect cocktail over five mediocre ones. Tapas and small plates are designed to share alongside, and most nights the stage is open to anyone who wants to play.
“Where every moment becomes a cherished memory, and every visit feels like coming home.”

Anna - the bartender behind every drink
Anna runs the bar at Lime Lounge. Lao-born and fluent in Lao, Thai, and English, she's the bartender behind every cocktail on the menu - the kind who has your drink in front of you before you've finished ordering, and who remembers your name the next time you walk in.
She's sharp, widely accepted as the best-looking person at any bar she's standing behind, and if you tell her that she'll roll her eyes and pour you another. Her cocktails are short on shortcuts: fresh juices, house infusions, and a preference for one perfect drink over five mediocre ones.
Open stage
Bring your instrument, your voice, or just your passion
We host an open-stage / open-mic most weeks. It started as a casual jam between staff and regulars and has grown into one of the more dependable live-music spots in Vang Vieng - a relaxed mix of travellers and local musicians.
- Walk in, put your name on the list, play 2-3 songs.
- Acoustic guitar, keyboard, and mics provided - bring anything else.
- No cover charge. Originals, covers, anything goes.
- Most nights from 8 PM, within our 4-11 PM window.

Every night from 8 PM onwards - check our Instagram for this week's schedule.

“Amazing restaurant & bar! Cocktails were delicious (especially the special margarita) and the food was fresh and so flavourful. Great tapas style with interesting options. The bartender Anna is a lovely woman. Must visit when here!”
“A hidden gem! The mojitos are incredible - the best I've ever had. They have a great buy-two-get-one deal as well. Don't miss the amazing second floor where you can see views of the mountains!”
“I stumbled across this bar by chance walking through town. Welcomed by friendly staff and impressed by the menu. The chilli spaghetti - definitely recommend. A lovely atmosphere, and the live music was an added bonus.”
