Soulmate Listening Bar

What is it? An old house converted into a warm, homely listening bar. Wood runs throughout the front-room-like interior, with records playing in the evenings and occasional live sets.

Why we love it: Small and lived-in, the house has none of the polish – or impersonality – of a larger nightspot. Thai and international easy-listening records allow conversation to flow, with the occasional live act changing pace. There is also a front garden for warm evenings. Comfort matters more than spectacle here, and the bar is better for it.

Time Out tip: The homely layout means limited seating, particularly at weekends. Message the bar on Instagram or Line before visiting on Friday or Saturday to reserve a table.

Soi Lat Phrao 41, Yaek 10. Open Thursday-Tuesday, 7pm-2am. Call 082 300 0009.
