It’s ironic, really – a craft beer bar run by someone who doesn’t even drink beer. But that hasn’t stopped Tai Soon Bar from becoming a favourite among beer enthusiasts. Located inside an old shophouse near Pratu Phee, it sits amidst Bangkok’s vibrant street food scene yet offers a dimly lit hideaway perfect for relaxing after work. The exposed brick, peeling paint and strategically removed walls all pay homage to the building’s past, giving it a raw but intentional feel. The 13 taps behind the counter feature a selection of craft beers with different strengths and flavours, so there’s always something new to try.
190 Maha Chai Rd, Samran Rat, Phra Nakhon. 091-463-6465. Open daily 1pm-1am.
