Top 5 Music Venues in Malaysia

2, Jalan Pantai Chenang, Kampung Lubok Buaya, 07000 Langkawi, Kedah, Malaysia

“Way too expensive for a backpacker🤣 Soju is reasonably priced though. This is the main spot to watch sunset and after that fire dancers. Bartender guy was really friendly and it was nice to listen to him sing while he was working 😁”

63, Jalan Magazine, 10300 George Town, Pulau Pinang, Malaysia

“It’s a cool hidden speakeasy but their drinks aren’t particularly inspiring; in fact, they were downright boring and even more so for their price point. Staff also ignored us for a solid 20 minutes even tho we pressed the bell for service 3x”

B17 & 18, Lot 54, Skudai Hwy, Kawasan Perusahaan Tampoi, 81200 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia

“Great for friends and family booking, cater for all communities, all food and drinks here are all halal too. You can have shisha/ hookah in the KTV room. All rooms were named after local artistes, we got “Mummy” aka Mas Idayu’s room. “Ada nampak Mummy happy” gitu.. I believed they got 50 KTV rooms so waiting will not be as long.. we waited for a good 25mins and there’s a number of groups ahead of us waiting as well. We were given a number card and got called out when it’s our turn. Sounding was great too.. full punch!!!”

6-G, Jalan Abdullah, Bangsar, 59000 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

“Nice ambience hidden bar. Good place to hang out with friends or colleagues . Their drinks are mostly mixed and blended by themselves with local twist, refreshing and new taste. We only had the nachos as finger food. And is ok. Will come back again with friends and try more of their drinks and food.”

61M, Jalan Medan Setia 1, Bukit Damansara, 50490 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

“A great place with great drinks and food run by great owners. For drinks, I highly recommend having their Mary Poppins. It's a great twist on a Bloody Mary. But the other drinks like the grog, clarified Pina colada and best ever drink are also delicious. For food, don't miss out on their Cubano and Jamaican patties. Try out their extensive rum collection as well. They are Kuala Lumpur's rum bar after all.”

527 Jalan Tanjung Bungah, Located in Rainbow Paradise Beach Resort, Tanjong Bungah, 11200 George Town, Pulau Pinang, Malaysia

“What a wonderful beach bar to visit in Penang! They have a great beach view on the night, and a wonderful chilled vibe to relax and have fun. Definitely must have a seat on the beach and have a drink to relax. They also have multiple fire shows thought out the night on weekend. It was a rainy night when we visited here, so the show started at 9pm after the rain stopped, and the next show at 10.30pm. We were satisfied with the service as they were all friendly and helpful. But, i got to say they didn’t have the best food in Penang, the taste of their foods were all so so only lah. Anyway, the beach view and fire show were their best selling points for us to visit here.”

37, Jalan Gurdwara, 10300 George Town, Pulau Pinang, Malaysia

“Interesting drinks, cozy atmosphere and good service. Some of the drinks were good but most were not well mixed. Favourite drink was surprisingly the soy sauce one which the staff recommended!”

37634, Jalan 6/37a, Kawasan Perusahaan Taman Bukit Maluri, 52100 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

“Nice Shisha place～”

5, Jalan Sri Hartamas 7, Taman Sri Hartamas, 50480 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

“Drinks deserve additional star. This bartender seems cheerful. We went slightly earlier around 2130 and the bartender can still entertain us and chit chat. He did inform that the crowd will come in around 2230-2300. There were smokers everywhere and they cranked up the music. 3 star because I didn’t like that they allowed people to smoke and vape indoors. Generally, didn’t like the atmosphere. Been to better speakeasy”

New World Park, Lot No. 102-E-2, 102-E-3, 102-E-4, 102-E-5, 102-E-6 (Ground Floor & First Floor, 102, Jalan Burma, 10050 George Town, Pulau Pinang, Malaysia

“great”

Jalan Austin Heights 8/1, Taman Mount Austin, 81100 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia

“The staff very friendly and nice. Definitely worth to visit.”

D-37-01 , DATARAN 3 TWO, 2, Jalan 19/1, 46300 Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia

“This is a great place to enjoy live music free and to have drinks with friends. I came here to watch Julian Mokhtar and his band. They play classic and blues rock and are very good. The music is raw and loud which is a great thing so have realistic expectations about having conversations with friends here. Food was pretty good but expensive. The canned drinks are very expensive. I guess it's justified for the live music one gets to enjoy here.”

130, Jln Penang, George Town, 10000 George Town, Pulau Pinang, Malaysia

“DJ so-so and the sound system need improvement. The big LCD screen is pretty. It was friday night and I think the club is pretty pack by midnight, not full but decent crowd. AC is good with high ceiling, its pretty well ventilated.”

12, Jln Radin Bagus 3, Bandar Baru Sri Petaling, 57000 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

“Food here is surprisingly good, especially the salted egg fries. The best food I've eaten among all the bars so far. The Nam Yu pork cube also nice, not salty, little bit crispy outside and soft inside. Overall a good experience here.”

147, Jalan Petaling, City Centre, 50000 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

“Great atmosphere, great cocktails and friendly staff. Discount for 2 bottles of spirits, happy hour 5-8pm. Gets crowded later in the evening, still room to get up and dance!”

Ground Floor, Federal Arcade, 35, Jln Bukit Bintang, Bukit Bintang, 55100 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

“I quite like this place, and value for money. I spend Rm70++ per hour for a Cabaret room which can fit up to 8-9 pax. It count by hour not pax, inclusive free flow drinks and snacks(do not expect the fancy drinks or snacks. For me I’m okay with it). We ordered pizza and some fries, both are small and taste so so. Very cold, pls bring your own sweaters or they can provide you a blanket. Very clean, not smelly, no smoke smell. Overall it worth 4* for me 👍”
