KYLA Gallery and Wine Bar

What is it? A pint-sized spot down Silom Soi 23 that doubles as a wine bar and an art gallery, throwing its doors open to night owls who fancy a drink and a slow wander past some art into the small hours. 

Why we love it: The whole place rewards a leisurely climb. The ground floor is all about the drinks, leaning on natural wines from Spain and France with a few honest cocktails such as highballs and gin and tonics in the mix, and on weekdays you can even bring your own food along, provided you order at least one glass. Head upstairs to a mezzanine of tucked-away seats and yet more art, which buys you a bit more privacy than the buzz below. Climb once more and you reach the gallery itself, a compact room that's beautifully lit and unusually sharp in its choice of artists.

Time Out tip: Yes, they pour Guinness here, which makes a pleasant change from the usual wine list when you fancy something with a bit of heft. 

Silom 23. Open Tuesday-Sunday, 3pm-midnight. Entry is free.
