Relaxed Friendly Pub In Silom--looking For Recommendations

[sbk]

I am meeting friends in Bangkok early next month and they asked for a nice pub on Silom to meet up. Near a skytrain station would be good since I won't be staying in Silom. We are mostly girls, so relaxed, and not too noisy as we have lots of gossip to catch up on.

Any recommendations from our Bangkok savvy members?

All females and just wanna chat, I vote for Silom Soi 4.

I agree. There must be more than twenty good pubs and restuarants in Soi 4 and you're bound to find one that you like. The atmosphere is way better than some uppity hotel and as it's a largely gay area, you wont be troubled by testosterone-deprived hard-core drinkers.

Is this another one of your haunts James?

On a serious note though it is not a bad suggestion.

There is also Roadhouse on the corner of Surawong Road, which is a pretty decent joint and serve good food.

Great, since some are out of towners (well don't even live in thailand tbh) , any specific place to start so I can give them directions?

How about Molly Malones? Pleasant decor, Guinness and a great lamb stew. It's on Convent Road just a few doors along on the left from Silom Road. Handy subway and skytrain connections.

Not cheap but this is Bangkok's central business district and priced accordingly.

Agree.

I'd vote for Molly Malones. Nice staff and nice managers, if you're worried about high prices then they have the usual pub specials... hundred baht or so for a pint of Tiger, or something similar.

Have a good time.

The Barbican on Soi Thaniya is good.

Almost at the bottom of the stairs from the Sala Daeng BTs station on Silom and Soi Thaniya is O'Brien's. The have two levels inside and an outdoor seating area to smoke or watch the people.

Yeah. Agree with this one. At the foot of Sala Daeng Sky Train. O'Reilly's Irish Pub on the corner. Walk up that same Soi that O'Reilly's is on the corner of and about 100 yards on your right is The Barbican. Friendly place, no hassle, good crowd. Happy Hour on pints can be big discounts as you have to draw from a pack of playing cards to see how much discount your getting.

Could also try Duke Of Wellington. Other side of the Sky Train steps and pass the Soi of the previous mentioned Molly Mallone's. Personally found this pub to be more welcoming in the daytime with a pint and a plate of food in front of you. Ah, daytime drinking eh??!!

I think you gals should try all of the suggestions. Then get back to us on which one was best!

Hope you have a nice time.

O'Reillys and Molly's are pretty good for a pub atmosphere, but for something a little different I would suggest an open bar called the Happy Beer Garden outside of the Montien Plaza, whilst catching up on gossip you can have a laugh at some of the sights going into and out of Patpong and it is only a short walk from O'Reillys and the skt train.

I haven't been there for a few years, hope it hasn't changed for the worse.
