ProdigalSon Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Having had a few replies on the Fabrique thread from people saying there are much better places to go after hours (ie. after 1.30am) in Chiang Mai, I thought I'd find out what they are. So for those who stay out all night, where do you like to go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artey Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Chiangmai bar next to Discovery isn't bad, u can bring ur own bottle at no extra charge and mixers are cheap. There is outside area to chill out or 2 small rooms with hip-hop/thai and techno music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mestizo Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Inside Park is pretty decent. We have been there a couple times, but I don't remember how to get there. Some where on the Northern part of town (near Tesco Lotus, I think). My Thai coworkers and I have tried to go to Mandalay one night (all 20 & 30-something young professionals)... They were willing to turn our entire group away, as I (the only farang in the group), didn't want to pay the 300 THB entry fee.. I've never gone back there. Much rather slum it up at Spicy or the open-air Van bar next door, than pay those sort of prices. Is Hot Shots, the place next door to Bubbles in Pornping Hotel, considered an afterhours place? Not sure what time they close, but I seem to recall being there quite late one time. -Mestizo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shah Jahan Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 If you got girls already to lube up, a great place to cap them off is at Bossy which is down on that Japanese karaoke street near CM lan . maybe someone else can give better directions. I wouldnt go there to pick up new ones though, as most will stick to their tables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
threedot Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 For anyone who may be considering to post any of the lesser known places (the sort you were introduced to by your thai friends and would not have found otherwise), I beg you please to not post them on this forum as I do not want to be surrounded by sleazy old gits trying to cop off with students half their age when I go out this weekend.

StevieH Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 the van is always good value for a late drink giggle and depending on your definition of 'late', the bars around the reggae quarter, cafe del sol, zoe in yellow etc are nice too. not a fan of spicy and have had some good nights at various non-farang places with thai friends too.

Paagai Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 (edited) Having had a few replies on the Fabrique thread from people saying there are much better places to go after hours (ie. after 1.30am) in Chiang Mai, I thought I'd find out what they are.So for those who stay out all night, where do you like to go? Not sure how much we can say here, some of these places are Chiang Mai's best kept secrets those places that operate under the radar certainly don't want/need any publicity and, as threedot says, some of their best attibutes is the lack of Farangs! By far the best late night venue used to be Mai Peang in Khamtieng, which now sells flowerpots Some of the yabaa fueled gang fights were excellent entertainment "Inside the Park" which Mestizo mentions is a more upmarket replacement, but hidden away so not easy to find if you don't know. Few other good places up round Kamtieng too. The mainstream places: V-club, Mandalay/The Dark, Bossy, Vit club, Discovery. Should add a health/wallet warning to a couple of those though........ Plenty of small bars in the Santitham area open late (turn down the lights/music and carry on as normal, often til 3-4 a.m.). My favourites are two gay Karaoke places, sorry no names or directions, but probably not to the taste of most on this forum Anyway, the lone farang who turns up on a tuk-tuk complete with printed directions from Internet ain't allowed in! Hot tip for late night venue searchers: Huay Kaew is the dividing line between two police districts that have totally different concepts of "closing time" and "Entertainment". The one place, never, ever, ever: SPICY just so uncool to be seen there! Except in the company of a few ladyboys.......

If this is the same one I'm thinking of (Santitham area), tucked away down some dark sois (small venue with floor to ceiling mirrors on every wall)... then indeed it is hilarious at 5am after a decent quantity of whisky and with a large group of friends, but you need to be seriously intoxicated to enjoy the place - I would not attempt to go there as a lone farang!
