Which Western Bar Is the Best in Sukhumvit?

[Bpuumike]

When I'm in Bangkok I usually end up at the Black Swan because the location is so convenient. I've been going there off and on since around 2004 I think, not long after it opened. If you are meeting up with someone for a drink, this is usually the easiest place to do it, even if you plan to head elsewhere later. The staff there is great as well, unlike at some places (cough...Robin Hood...cough cough). My fav waitress there is the sweet cross-eyed girl...

Thought I knew most of them but where is the Black Swan?

it really is a very thin sample of all available.

Asok BTS. Well hidden under the staircase opposite Terminal 21.

funny poll as it all depends many expats would choose one of these but if pushed would confess that it is in fact Dr BJs on Soi 7

They are all overpriced but I like the Robin Hood, as long as you avoid the food, Londoner has all the atmosphere of a car park, Black Swan is OK but small with overpriced food.

 

True, all very pricey. Had a couple of meals at the Black Swan last week; they were decent enough. With the demise of the Green Vespa, there is no more pub grub to be found in Cambodia.

The owner was a nutter and not popular with the locals apparently.

His food was good for pub grub stye nosh though.

A lot of people had problems with him but with me he was always more than correct.
