Zen Bar and Hillary 4 Bar, Sukhumvit soi 4, Bangkok

Tuesday, October 30th, 2012

We now have 2 new large beer bars on the right side of Nana Plaza entrance: Zen Bar and Hillary 4 Bar. Both opened a few days/weeks ago replacing other bars and shops. Sukhumvit soi 4 looks more and more like a Pattaya street with beer bars all the way and customers spending a full [...]

Carnival Go-Go Bars, Nana Plaza, Bangkok

Saturday, August 11th, 2012

We had almost forgotten that Carnival Go-Go bar, one of the largest Go-Go bars in Bangkok was still open for business on the third floor of the Plaza. Now that the ST hotel next door is closed, few people walk further than Cascade Go-Go bar and the small ST Hotel next to it. Or they [...]

Sunday, July 29th, 2012

Strikers Beer Bar have moved from their previous location, next to Nana Plaza, and opened a bigger bar on a new location, the Ra-Jah Hotel‘s parking lot, further down Sukhumvit soi 4. The new Strikers Bangkok is really huge and if it succeeds in attracting customers down there, it will probably contribute to develop the [...]

Big Mango Bar, Sukhumvit soi 4, Bangkok

Sunday, May 13th, 2012

Big Mango Bar could be just another Bangkok Beer bar with a couple of pool tables, half a dozen bar girls and a few regulars. But they are the only bar in Bangkok that has developed an online community through their blog: Big Mango Bar. This blog, that used to be called TFS2M (The Farang [...]

Rainbow 3 GoGo Bar, Nana Plaza, Bangkok

Thursday, May 3rd, 2012

Rainbow 3 GoGo bar is said to have the same owner as Rainbow 1 GoGo bar. It used to be much less popular than Rainbow 1, but since they have reorganized the bar and refreshed the line up, Rainbow 3 is more crowded and features more cuties than before. It’s not Rainbow 4 yet (and [...]

Pedros Music Bar, Sukhumvit Road, Asok, Bangkok

Saturday, January 28th, 2012

Pedros Music Bar is a beer bar located on Sukhumvit road, near Asok, halfway between the Interchange 21 Tower and the Shell Gas Station. It looks like a very small bar because the entrance is quite narrow, but it is deep and actually not that small. They have seats outside for smokers and inside for [...]

The New Raw Hide Go-Go Bar, Soi Cowboy, Bangkok

Wednesday, January 4th, 2012

Raw Hide is not a new Go-Go bar, it has been here for a while, but it has a new ownership and you can tell from the outside: they now have the big neon signs like the other bars of the same owner (Rio, Spice Girls, Kiss, Deja Vu, etc.). But I heard that the [...]

Molly Pub and Bar is for sale. Again.

Saturday, December 3rd, 2011

The bar next to Annie’s Massage and the Ra-jah Hotel is for sale. Again. For some reason, despite the rather good location near Sukhumvit soi 4 and Nana Plaza, this place has always failed to be a successful business. The last try was a beer bar with a live band, and the place was called [...]

The fate of Nana Plaza

Sunday, November 20th, 2011

Nana Plaza will not disappear. Not yet. The Plaza is here to stay. Many predicted that the end of the Master Lease at the end of the year would mean the end of the Plaza as we know it, claiming that the piece of land the Plaza occupies is too valuable for being kept for [...]
