Khaosan Road

Khaosan Road

Khaosan Road, Bangkok's backpackers' hub, is the kind of place that needs to be experienced to be believed—and no traveller should leave the city without coming here. Frequented by swathes of international tourists and locals alike, the area is always bursting with action, but it is at night when Khaosan Road truly comes alive. Here you'll find a rich and diverse selection of bars and nightclubs catering to all kinds of travellers. Khaosan Road is also an excellent place to try local flavours. Sample from the famous pad Thai to deep-fried spring rolls, grilled meat skewers, mango sticky rice, fried roti, and coconut ice cream to barbecued crocodiles and fried and crispy bugs, like grasshoppers, cockroaches, and scorpions. Feeling like spending some bahts? There are also plenty of shopping opportunities here: clothing and accessories, traditional handicrafts, handmade jewellery, and vintage goods. And why not finish your night at Khaosan Road with a relaxing Thai massage?

Tichuca Rooftop Bar

Tichuca Rooftop Bar

Perched atop the 46th floor of the T-One Building, Tichuca brings the urban jungle to Bangkok with bamboo architecture, tropical decor, and city and river views. It’s a chilled-out spot for cocktails and bar bites, and perfect for watching the sun set over the skyline. The building itself has more to explore — two other bars on lower floors and a club on the 45th — so you can hop around without ever leaving the building and make a full night of it.

Bangkok by Night: Temples, Markets, and Food by Tuk-Tuk

Bangkok by Night: Temples, Markets, and Food by Tuk-Tuk

Awarded twice as TripAdvisor Traveller's Choice 'No. 1 Experience in Thailand', this tuk-tuk night tour is a great way to discover Bangkok and learn about the local culture. See famous temples and sights illuminated at night as you whizz around the city in an iconic 3-wheeled taxi. Visit The Flower Market, the grounds of Wat Arun, and Chinatown. Plus, enjoy snacks, dinner and a dessert.

Jodd Fairs Night Market

Jodd Fairs Night Market

One of Bangkok’s newest night markets, Jodd Fairs is open every day and full of energy. You’ll find everything from durian and spicy pork spine soup to giant seafood buckets served with gloves for a hands-on feast, plus sweets like salted egg lava pastry and coconut ice cream with mango. Beyond the food, there are plenty of shopping opportunities — from clothes and accessories to quirky souvenirs. Open-air bars and live music make it a place to eat, drink, shop, and soak up the city’s evening buzz all in one.

DJ Station

DJ Station

Bangkok's iconic gay nightclub, DJ Station, is a must-visit for anyone looking to dance the night away. Located in Silom Soi 2, this high-energy venue spans three floors, each with its own vibe. The ground floor features a sleek bar and multimedia screens, the first floor offers an outdoor terrace and smoking area, while the second floor houses the main dance floor, where DJs spin the latest hits, and the grand stage hosts dazzling drag shows that kick off around midnight.

TRIBE Sky Beach Club

TRIBE Sky Beach Club

Located on the 5th floor of EmSphere Mall, TRIBE Sky Beach Club offers a tropical escape in the heart of Bangkok.

The atmosphere transitions from mellow daytime tunes to vibrant beats as the evening progresses, attracting a diverse crowd of locals and visitors alike.

Havana Social

Havana Social

Patpong Night Market

Patpong Night Market

In the heart of Bangkok’s infamous red-light district, stalls spill onto the street selling everything from knock-off watches and clothes to quirky souvenirs, but it’s the neon lights, bustling bars, and go-go clubs that really define Patpong Night Market. Tourists and locals weave between drinks, street food, and shopping — perfect for an evening stroll if you want a snapshot of Bangkok’s wilder side.

The Bamboo Bar

The Bamboo Bar

Bangkok’s first jazz venue, The Bamboo Bar at the Mandarin Oriental has been a sanctuary for music lovers since 1953. An institution in its own right, it’s known for live jazz and blues shows and a menu of signature cocktails and liquors that fit the room’s old-school sophistication. Still one of the best spots in the city to catch live jazz, and a good nook to linger on a hot tropical night.

Vertigo & Moon Bar Rooftop

Vertigo & Moon Bar Rooftop

On the 61st floor of the Banyan Tree Hotel, Vertigo is part open-air grill, part rooftop bar, and all about the view. The restaurant does steaks and seafood, while the Moon Bar next door is where most people head for a cocktail at sunset. Drinks aren’t cheap, but the 360° skyline and open-air setting are what make it one of Bangkok’s classic rooftop spots.

Sirocco

Sirocco

Sitting 63 floors up at Lebua’s State Tower, Sirocco is the rooftop you’ve probably seen in photos — or in the movie 'The Hangover'. Take a seat amongst the A-list and enjoy Mediterranean cuisine and fine wine in a full alfresco dining setup. Live jazz drifts across the terrace while the city lights spread out below, twinkling all the way to the Chao Phraya River.

Phra Nakhon Bar & Gallery

Phra Nakhon Bar & Gallery

Just a short walk from Khaosan Road, this spot has been a favourite for students and backpackers since 1999. Part bar, part gallery, it’s a relaxed place to grab a Chang or a cocktail while checking out the rotating artworks on the walls. There’s a small rooftop too, where you can take in the city view as the sun sets.
