Gnaw your way into the Year of the Rat.

All that shopping deserves a stiff drink. Here, in Bangkok's retail and business center you'll find a wide range of drinking holes, from five-star hotel cocktail bars and glitzy cigar lounges to low-key craft beer haunts. 

Street food, plant markets, burgers and movies.

The bar capital of Bangkok keeps getting better.

Bangkok's business district is your go-to for after-work bar-hopping.

Sing it, sister.

Add these to your bar-hopping list.

Nights out in this city just keep getting better.

Who needs friends when you've got good booze?
