14 bars that are back in business—but without selling booze

This Chinese-inspired bar in Chinatown is back in the game with a line-up of big and small plates that pair well with its new creative mocktails.

Go back to enjoying jazzy vibes and carefully curated drinks (mocktails, of course) at this unassuming speakeasy in Thonglor.

This welcoming bar, set on the 40th floor of Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok, makes a comeback to the nightlife scene with more of its (now booze-free) tiki-inspired drinks and mouth-watering grilled dishes.

This spot in the neighborhood we recently hailed as “Bangkok’s coolest” is once again welcoming guests with its signature pink and purple lighting, creative Thai fare and non-alcoholic shots.

Its signature gin tipples are still off the menu, but you can now pop into this popular bar, which has refashioned itself as a café operating during the day, for bagel sandwiches, Hong Kong pineapple buns and soda-infused drinks.

Hip teens and cool nine-to-fivers frequent this spot to enjoy live music, funky drinks, and the chic and cozy red-lit ambiance.

This spacious, open-air rooftop bar is still ideal for a fun weekend night out. Alcoholic drinks aren’t served, but the pumping music and company of good friends should be enough to make the most of the evening.

Café by day, bar by night, this Saphan Kwai hangout serves creative mocktails that promise to liven up your evening. Try Artful (B150), a frothy concoction blended with coffee.

Only open for a split second before bars were asked to shut down, this Phahonyothin spot is back to host fun events, some of which are dedicated to “promoting open relationships”.

Seen brings a whole new look and vibe to the space—from the shimmering gold and brown décor, to a playlist of Latino music, to international-influenced food and cocktails.

Take in refreshing drinks and Asian-inspired nibbles at this schooner-turned-bar docked in front of Asiatique. The massive three-masted structure is still best visited during sunset hours.

Bangkok’s most “outrageous” bar is back in full force, and has an entirely new menu that features drinks made with the recently legalized herb kratom.

A “tree” lit up with neon-colored LED lights gives this rooftop bar atop T-One Building a psychedelic jungle feel. Though cocktails are off the menu for now, they do have some tasty-looking frozen yuzu coladas that come in hollowed-out pineapples.

Enjoy live music, fusion mocktails and views of Chinatown at this dimly-lit “secret” rooftop bar called Wallflowers Upstairs atop the Cafe. If you’ve never been here before, now’s the time to visit.
