Tongkah Tin Syndicate — quick read for sports-bar seekers at The Slate Phuket (4.3/5)
This bar scores 4.3 out of 5 from 35 reviews and sits inside The Slate Phuket resort, operating daily from 16:00 to 00:00. It accepts NFC/contactless payment.
What the place actually offers
- Full-size snooker table and a pool table, plus two large TVs showing sport.
- Decor and drink menu that multiple visitors described as visually pleasing.
Drinks and service — who’s happy here
Several guests highlighted a strong spirits selection and described the drinks as delicious, while multiple reviewers praised the service staff for being attentive. That combination makes the bar an easy choice for people who prioritize drink quality and bartender competence.
Atmosphere and crowd — two different weekends
Expect a family-friendly vibe: one reviewer specifically called out that there are often children present, which affects suitability for a quiet adult night. At the same time, other visitors mention an engaging atmosphere suited to watching sport and socializing, so experiences swing between lively and relaxed depending on who’s there.
Value, condition and sharp contradictions
Not everyone agrees about value. One guest labeled the venue average and said it felt slightly worn down, adding that prices felt high for the quality delivered. That contrasts with other reviewers who gave top marks for atmosphere and décor. This split suggests you may pay a premium for location and ambiance rather than spotless new interiors.
Access confusion — a practical heads-up
At least one reviewer initially believed the bar was for hotel guests only and left without trying it, although that visitor later understood the bar is accessible to non-guests. If you’re visiting from off-site and want to avoid wasted travel time, a quick call to reception will clear access expectations.
Timing secrets and when to go
Happy hour runs in the evening between 21:00 and 22:00 daily, which is the clearest, review-backed timing advantage. For sports nights or to guarantee table access for snooker/pool, arrive early on key match days; if you want fewer families, plan to check availability by phone before you go.
Who should visit — actionable guidance
- Go if you want a sports-focused bar inside The Slate with proper snooker/pool and big screens, plus a solid spirits list.
- Avoid if you need a quiet, child-free cocktail lounge or if you’re shopping solely for the newest, high-end fit-out.
- If budget is a concern, treat the venue as a mid-to-upmarket resort bar where pricing may reflect location more than spotless condition.
Nearby context to plan your evening
The bar sits among The Slate’s on-site outlets, with nearby restaurants such as Morning Monks and Tin Mine and facilities like the on-site spa and coffee shop, useful if you want dinner or a daytime coffee before an evening at the bar.
Bottom line
Tongkah Tin Syndicate works best for sports fans and spirits drinkers who value atmosphere and service over the freshest interiors and strict quiet. Use the happy hour window if you want a price perk, call ahead if you’re not staying at the hotel and want to avoid surprises, and expect a mixed crowd that can include families with children.
