Popular Post sungod Posted January 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 24, 2021 Open until 10pm if I'm not mistaken. But not allowed to sell booze at present. You can buy in a supermarket and sup at home. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

statman78 Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 I hope that the alcohol ban is lifted soon and that the pubs can open. I am planning my a trip down to Bangkok to watch the Super Bowl since there are not any good places to watch it here in Chiang Rai. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maisodni Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 For a haircut - you can try using a place that is located under Soi Asoke (Sukhumvit Soi 21) - it is located in the "tunnel" that runs parallel to Soi Asoke, starting from the area that marks the top of the MRT Subway system, when you descend from the BTS Skytrain system, next to Terminal 21 shopping mall. The barber shop is located about halfway down the tunnel, on the left side - if you are coming from the space TWO LEVELS down from the BTS, by escalator. It costs 150 baht - and they work fairly "quickly." For a roof top venue, try Brewski - which is located at the top of the Radisson Hotel at the corner of Sukhumvit Road, and Sukhumvit Soi 27.

bangkok19 Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Re the barber shop in the little MRT tunnel under Asoke - A HIDDEN GEM, nice quiet little area that has a Suparich money changer, coffee shops and a nice CLEAN horng nahm... but don't tell anybody. Except for the workers that use the tunnel to exit further up Asoke.. most people just walk by the entrance. As for the better rooftop bars i.e. 360 Bar, Cloud 47, Sky Bar etc, they're atop the ****+ hotels which stick strictly to the "no alcohol" rules at present! All you can do at the moment is Scan the Skyline with a Snack and a Sprite! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Super Bowl is not until Feb 8th and things may loosen up by then. But even if today's restrictions are still in place for sure there will be restaurants/bars opening to show the game. My first guess would be Bourbon Street, but there will be others. You may not be able to have a beer but really you gotta be pretty hardcore to have a beer at 6:00 am.

I usually go to The Game near Nana BTS station but Bourbon Street is within walking distance of my condo. When I get into Bangkok next Wednesday I'll stop there to see if they will be open. I usually wait until half time and have a few Bloody Marys. ???? I hope for everyone's safety that the latest outbreak is back under control soon. Businesses and their employees are really hurting. A little off topic, but I was at Bourbon Street on Thanksgiving and Christmas and the buffet was great!
