Telephone & Balcony
Commence your evening on Soi 4, arguably Bangkok's pinkest street. It's home to
predominantly gay shops, bars, clubs and restaurants. The best views of the action
are from longstanding streetside bars Telephone Pub ( www.telephonepub.com ; 114/11-13 Soi
4, Th Silom; 6pm-1am; ; Si Lom exit 2, Sala Daeng exit 1) and, directly across the
street, Balcony ( www.balconypub.com ; 86-88 Soi 4, Th Silom;
5.30pm-1am;
;
Si Lom exit 2,
Sala Daeng exit 1) .
Bearbie
A bear bar as perceived through the Thai lens, Bearbie (2nd fl, 82 Soi 4, Th Silom;
8pm-1am Tue-Thu, to 2am Fri-Sun; Si Lom exit 2, Sala Daeng exit 1) replaces beards and
bikers with local 'chubs' and teddy bear-themed karaoke rooms. Check its Facebook
page to see what events are lined up.
Duangthawee Plaza
Finding the Soi 4 scene a tad too tame? Cross over to Duangthawee Plaza (Soi
Twilight; Soi Pratuchai; 7pm-1am; Si Lom exit 2, Sala Daeng exit 3) , a strip of male-only
go-go bars (sample names: Hot Male, Fresh Beach Boy, Dream Boy) that is the gay
equivalent of nearby Th Patpong. Expect tacky sex shows performed by bored-look-
ing boys.
Men Factory
If you're into the sauna scene, there are a few options in this part of town. Men Fact-
ory ( www.mfsauna.com ; Soi 2/1, Th Silom; admission 150-170B;
2pm-6am;
Si Lom exit 2,
Sala
Daeng exit 1) is a newish place that offers the entire spectrum of options, from Thai
massage on a daily basis to nude nights on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday.
