No, it has nothing to do with wrestling. WWA is a multi-brand store situated in Siam Square that also features a little café in one corner. Unconventional, unique designer brands like Anti Utopia, Curated by Ek Thongprasert, The Alchemists and an eponymous clothing line are all brought together here. Cozy sofas and armchairs covered in black fabric stand beside nice, wooden tables. Just like the shop’s decor, the food at the café is simple but cool. A traditional English dish, Toasted Welsh Rarebit, featuring sweet pickled peppers, pickled peaches and rocket salad, is brought to Bangkok by an amazing English chef. But the menu highlight is a wide range of desserts, from brioches and parfaits to the signature WWA Apple Tart.

You can sit, relax and enjoy the sculptures at the entrance but it would be better to get inside the theatre. It’s only 100 TBH for a movie tickets – super cheap, right?

One of Siam Square’s legendary spots, DJ Siam, has been popular for more than 20 years. It’s one of the coolest places to go get your music at Siam.
