Vacated June 2017

The entire side Soi off Sukhumvit Soi 11 has been vacated and the little block will be sold for future development.

I think it’s closed.

We searched and searched for this bar but could not find it. We think the street it was on was closed along with Cheap Charlie’s but the reviews don’t reflect this yet. We almost wandered down a dark ally following google maps. Not sure if...More

Nice chilled place but miserable staff!

Happy hour til 8 offers good value on limited cocktails, wine and beer buckets. Nice cosy chilled place a bit away from the horrendous crowds of soi 11. Unfortunately the woman who served us had a face like a slapped backside the whole time!

Cute bar

Came here with my sister and her fiancé. Really enjoyed the music/live band. I like the genre the duo played and how they put there own twist to the songs. We had 2 buckets of beer so I'm not qualified to review the cocktail drinks....More

Great Drinks

I just stopped by for a pre-dinner drink. It was very close to my restaurant for tonight on Soi 11 in Sukhumvit. The drink choices were great and my mixed drink was perfectly made to start my night!!!!!

Disappointing and unpleasant

I went here based on a review by an expat in Bangkok. It's hard to find and not worth the effort. I also found it strange for a cocktail bar, that there was no cocktail menu. The seating is basic and uncomfortable. There was a...More

Hi Dubai Journal, We are right next to Cheap Charlie's so not sure if you didn't see the map on our website or our google pointer. Perhaps that would have made it easier to find. We have an extensive cocktail menu which would lead me...More

Worth a visit if you are in the area - but check music before you enter

Like a lot of Bangkok bar / restaurants this place seems to vary greatly in popularity. First time the place was packed - the music was excellent and we enjoyed the food, drinks and service. On the second visit the music was not good, the...More

Thank JoDubaiUae

Sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy our music the second time around. Given that our neighbour is a fish and chips shop, some times you can smell their food, but given their kitchen is out the back of their restaurant, it doesn't happen too...More

Sukhumvit

With a mix of shopping malls, hip bars and food stalls
lining both sides of Thailand’s longest road, you’ll
rarely encounter a dull moment along Sukhumvit. While
the main road itself doesn't offer a lot in terms of
entertainment, it's the adjoining 'sois' (alleys)
where the magic happens. Popular spots are soi 11 for
a lively night out, soi 4 for naughty nightlife and
soi 21 for world-class shopping at Terminal 21. It's
