BOTTLE ROCKETS BAR

Tucked beside Charn Issara Tower 1 on the Silom and Rama IV stretch, Bottle Rocket feels more like dropping round a friend’s place than entering a formal bar. The selection covers easy-drinking pours, stronger options and frequently rotating craft beer on tap, and newcomers can simply ask the bartender where to start. The kitchen serves straightforward home-style food with a few twists of its own. Weekdays are generally relaxed, but call ahead on Friday and Saturday nights when the better tables disappear quickly.

942/26 Rama IV Rd, Bang Rak. Open daily, 6pm-midnight. Call 091-808-4338.
