After a busy day walking here and there at town, this is the perfect place to relax down by the evening. The pub is located right next to the river. 5 bottles of Heinekan cost RM89, price is acceptable, frozen beer is also available at lower price. At night when the lights on, it looks great and lively, the boat will passing thru on and off and sometimes some tourists will wave to you from the boat. Sitting at the rattan chair, listening to nice songs, drinking the cold beer, this make the day end with perfection!

Reggae on the River Malacca is a great place to chill out and have some drinks with friends. The atmosphere is cool, and there are plenty of pubs to choose from, each with its unique vibe. I managed to find a Bob Marley-themed pub featuring his music, which was a real treat.
The place is chill and has bamboo stick seats, which adds to the relaxed ambiance. The beer prices were reasonable, considering it's a tourism hotspot.
One of the highlights of the place is watching the ferries flow in and out while occasionally waving at the tourists on the ferry and playing some mini beer games. Overall, I found the place quite satisfying, and it's an excellent spot to unwind and enjoy the beautiful views of the river.
The bar is literally follow the name, beside the river. So if you walk towards or from the Hard rock cafe, by the river, you will definitely see this. There is a lot of bars by the river too but only here playing the reggae song.
Environment is good. I'm like it, if you don't kind the smell and sometimes, the mosquito, other than that everything is good.
Feel a bit short-handed here. The staff here are busy and yet still friendly, which is a good thing.
Price wise maybe a bit expensive, but it is standard over here, so no complaints.
Overall it is a good place to chill
Big fan of the the Bob Marley themed cocktails. The Marley booze cocktail is must try. Best view of the melaka river in the evening and night. The place is organized and clean. Staffs are polite and friendly too. Highly recommended.

We sat down for dinner and a drink.
Like all bars/restaurants on the river people try to get you in with happy hour offers.
When the guy showed us the menu on his phone we should have noticed it as a red flag but as we were hungry we sat down.
Food (Pizza and pad Thai) came from a place else where the person asked us to pay him directly.
Pizza was Ketchup on dough 🤣👎
Pad Thai tasted well but noodles still were not cooked properly.
Go somewhere else for food. Maybe on the other river side.
Or anywhere else.
The river bars seem like a tourist trap. And gar too expensive.

Was there at 5pm on a Monday and they were open. RM 63 for 5 bottles of Anchor. Not many people in the other shops and we enjoyed the time. There are fans all over the shop so it's cool everywhere. Toilet is very clean too. Only setback was smoking is allowed everywhere, but all in all, good.
