Popular Post Ayutthaya11 Posted April 4, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted April 4, 2015 When in Bangkok I tend to stick to Hilary bar in soi 4 for the music and Gullivers soi 5 for the traditional pub feel. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokie36 Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 The rooftop bar at the new Marriott....doesn't get the riff raff you find at Gullivers I've noticed. Ah I'm only kidding....they don't let me in with my flip flops and I don't own a pair of shoes. Soi 7/1...Soi 8...Soi 33/1...and a few other places I won't mention here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokie36 Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 I recommend the Crossbar on Soi 23 for the true pub feel. Go try it OP. Or Bradman's for the Aussies....their pies are good...but get there early. Americans should stay away from the outside seating at the Robin Hood however or face being outed on the forum for whatever foible or nuance I choose to label em with. Hehehe 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Familyonthemove Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Apotheca Blues Bar in Soi 11 - Great live blues band, good selection of beers. Aussie bar on Soi 11 - good value food and good live band. Hemmingways Sou 14 - different style to most bars in Bangkok. Big Dog at entrance to Nana Plaza for people watching. Rooftop bar at Zense Central World for the view (but avoid the restaurant). Any of the riverside bars at Phra Athid Pier - near Khao San. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post The Dancer Posted April 5, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted April 5, 2015 (edited) Starbucks in Terminal 21 for babe-spotting. The following put me off the place for about a month though: One evening this gorgeous Thai babe happened to be seated at the table next to mine scribbling with pen on paper. I screw up my courage to the sticking point and say to her it's refreshing to see someone write and not tap. She looks up at me like I'd just crawled out of her croissant but deigns to answer in perfectly accented English, "I am writing poetry." That's all the opening I need. I tell her I love poetry, had a minor in literature in college, still read in my spare time and ask what she's writing about. She answers it's about the pain chicken feel when farmers take away their eggs to sell. I didn't know what to say. I think I nodded, finished my cappuccino and left quickly. To this day I have no idea if she was serious or yanking my chain. Edited April 5, 2015 by The Dancer 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my c64 Agree about the pizza - was great but now just average - the goats cheese pizza now seems to be made with processed cheese slices. But the rest of the food is still good and best Mojito's in town. But I'm a bit worried that all the shops along the front of Sukhumvit Road next to Hemmingways closed down last week ...... I can feel another shopping mall looming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Squeegee Posted April 18, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted April 18, 2015 The market next to On Nut BTS. Easy to get to, inexpensive food both Thai and foreign, cold beer, live music and lots of eye candy. Great place to take visiting friends and family. - Suda Bar on Sukhumvit Soi 14: mixed service from mediocre to excellent (younger ones are impersonal, older ones are great) but the food is amazing and you can impress both Thai and foreigner when two people can eat very well for 300thb. Street bars just outside Subway next to Nana BTS: there's two next to each other and the girls are really friendly, won't rip you off and won't bother you if you just want to have a beer and enjoy the people watching. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roota Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 The Indian cafe opposite the old GPO, down the side soi off Charoen Krung, where the international telephones used to be when you had to book a call a week in advance. Ah . . . that takes me back. Some very good suggestions in this thread. I admit, I haven't lived in Bangkok in years and tend to burn out after a couple days, but that's my fault, not the city's. You've all named quite a few of my regular places but let me just add Le Bouchon, which after all these years remains my favorite little French cafe/restaurant in Thailand. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
