I found this bar by looking for the "best live music" bars near me (staying on soi10), and straight away I was delighted to make the easy 10min walk. I arrived on a Tuesday night, which I then found out was their Weekley comedy night, and was made to feel more than welcome straight away from the bar owner John , his staff, and the comedy club organisers and comedians. Ive been back every day since, and with 2for1 drinks from 2pm - 9pm every day, you really won't get anywhere better around soi11. Live music is blues / rock / pop, and they are some of the best musicians I've came across on all my travels in Asia. You can tell John knows his music, and what his clientele want. Also , great choice of food. A good selection on the menu, and I would highly recommend the new york Style meatballs. All in all, a great bar, and you will know that you will get made to feel welcome by all. 7/10 *Bar staff overcharge you. When questioned they get all defensive, owner isn't there blah blah. Then they proceed to rip the corner off the receipt they gave you and say you are owe money etc. disappointing after giving spending so much money. But I would still recommend the meatballs even though I thought this was a great bar. They obviously think people "passing through ' don't care. 6.5/7 / 10
I had the distinction pleasure of meeting the owner of this bar/speakeasy while on vacation in Bangkok from April 16-22, 2026. The owner and his staff showed me nothing but love! The service was on point, the DJ was cranking the hits, the bar girls were beautiful and friendly, and the atmosphere was so welcoming! I even got the opportunity to smoke of the establishment’s cigars! All-in-all, this place is truly a hidden gem and I cannot wait to come back tio this place in the near future! All the best to you and your staff, John! Thank you for EVERYTHING!! -Brian, United States
Greatest place for live music in Bangkok. Always great musicians who have played with bands you’ve heard of. From classic rock to blues to jazz to Grateful Dead and The Beatles. The owner, a former New Yorker, John Medina, snd his smart and lovely wife are great hosts who have it dialed in. The guests are as interesting as the staff. 5 stars. I never leave reviews but this one is a must. Just off Soi 11. Go
The one place that is a must visit when in Bangkok. I love their music and vibe and the bands here are the best in town. Staff and ownership really do work at making the place welcoming and cozy. The music is mostly blues, which I love, and the bands show they really care about the music. Wide variety of drinks (whisky sour is the best I’ve ever tasted). They also cater to events and there is a great New Orleans style balcony and hidden bar on the third floor. All in all, a great place.
I come to this bar sometimes to play snooker because they have big tables and it doesn’t feel too crowded. But when there’s live music, the speakers can get really loud ,like uncomfortably loud. When I went, they had a happy hour deal (buy 1 get 1 free) on selected drinks. The drink prices are okay, taste is average. Staff are friendly and service is good. The bathroom is fine too. I just found out this place has several floors for guests. If you want a private party, you can ask about the price for the third floor.
