Moonfruit Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Many people know, but nobody will answer you because the info you seek is just a google search away. In fact, i cant believe i took the time to write a sarcastic answer! I should be at Bed myself instead! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was there last Summer and had a couple of visits to the Q bar, it was good. Does anyone know of any other "Top" rated bars in Bangkok like Q bar? Went to Q Bar a couple of weeks ago after really looking forward to going, was quite disappointed, nice decor and good music but very small place and over crowded when busy. Went around the back to The Ritz, nice place to share a few bottles of whiskey with friends, good music and friendly faces.

You serious? That's a very mixed bag. Saxaphone and the Bulls Head are decent enough, but the Cat House?! It's a good laugh and has a great happy hour, but one of Bangkok's top bars???!!! And O'Reillys is one of Bangkok's worst, for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And O'Reillys is one of Bangkok's worst, for sure. Angle witch??? Oh my god.. I was in there a few weeks ago and it is by far the worst go go i have ever been in. Twice, the staff had taken a half full drink, only to try to sell me another two seconds later. I bought a girlie drink for one of the girls, who then came back only to drop off the check bin for her drink, set her drink on the table and then disappeared outside to talk on her mobile phone. Meanwhile, i finished my drink and when i paid the checkbin, her drink was still sitting there on the table full, never saw the girl again. The girls are old, wrinkled and rude. The mamasons are even ruder and there is very much a vibe of us against the falang, steal money. The show is lame, if you even call that a show, i thought of it more as stretch marks on display. Rainbow 4 for the girls. The big mango for food. Nana disco if your really really drunk at 1AM. Angel witch... Yuk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khutan Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 ....The big mango for food.... Up to you. Last two times I have been there, one time was the night off for the chef, and the other night I really didn't think what I ordered was all that great.

Its too much like a nightclub back home. Rainbow bar in nana used to have a bad rep for the bills bring rigged and attitude women. Get yourself in the thai scene groove!

Seapok Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Went around the back to The Ritz, nice place to share a few bottles of whiskey with friends, good music and friendly faces. How is the Ritz? I've passed it a few times and it just looks like an expensive hostess bar. What are the prices like? I can't really comment on the prices as my wife has a few mates that work there, so we got quite a discount, I don't remember paying to get in either. It was a good night, I was the only farang in there and felt quite a star!! haha the owner came over and gave us a free bottle of Johnny and made us all feel very welcome. One thing I didn't feel to easy about was as I was having a pee the toilet attendant began to massage my ears and shoulders mid flow!! haha how bizarre!! Would recommend the place though, throughly good night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inf Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Really surprising how different people can have totally different impressions of the same place. Q bar is my favorite Bangkok hangout. Personnel ranges from ok to friendly - especially the young ladies, but then I'm a European guy. No trouble from pushy hookers, just friendly women of all kinds of background, and the farang males are just ordinary blokes having fun; I've never seen any trouble with so-called 'p1ssed' farangs, not even on New Year's Eve. I find most people at Q are just middle-of-the-road types looking for a good time, good music, dance, good company and drinks, but not in excess. PS If you're looking for nightlife recommendations, also check out the farang fun and entertainment thread on this forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkk shadow Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Sorry if a bit off topic....but about Angelwitch... Had sme friends visit at Christmas and they wanted to see a show, so in we went...8 of us in all....one wan't drinking because of a bit of Bangkok belly. anyway after the mamasan complained to me 3 times and insisted he must buy a drink, i explained the other 7 of us were more than making up for his share, we decided to leave....at which time were presented with a padded bill....not nice...not going back...

Jimjim Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Bed Supperclub is the most interesting club I've ever seen. I hear it's quite hip and one of the top places to be on the nightscene but that may have changed by now in fickle Bangkok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beavis and Butthead Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 The Q bar and Bed are right outside my condo door. both places are hopelessly lame. I'd rather get hit by a Mack Truck than listen to offensive hip hop trash. Try Woodstock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thaipro Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I must say that I have had some very good times in bed and Qbar however that was 12-18 months ago when both were really good clubs. I would go on a weekly basis and enjoy it! Now I find that both places are filling up with lady boys, indians and way too many farangs which is not really what I'm looking for! There are so many other better places around BKK, one just needs to know where they are going. As someone mentioned above, Thonglo is a very happening area.

Gary A Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I like a bar that has a pleasant atmosphere and personality. That bar will also have the music turned down to a level that allows me to talk with whomever I happen to be with. I'll never drink in a place where I need earplugs to keep from getting a headache. I even like some of the open air beer bars but they are frequently spoiled by their neighbors who try to see if they can drown out each other's music. Nana Plaza used to have some decent places but it appears that the bar owner's mafia has decided to see just how much they can charge for a beer. A beer for 135 baht in a real dive is a rip off and I won't pay it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
