DRINKING & NIGHTLIFE
There's very little - almost nothing, really - in terms of nightlife in this part of town.
Luckily, Banglamphu and Th Khao San are a brief taxi ride away. Alternatively, the
riverside restaurants also function as open-air bars.
RIVER BAR CAFÉ
(405/1 Soi Chao Phraya; 5pm-midnight; Tha Saphan Krung Thon)
Sporting a picture-perfect river-
side location, good food and live music, River Bar Café combines all the essentials of a
perfect Bangkok night out. Grab a table closest to the river to fully take advantage of the
breeze, as well as to avoid noise fallout from the sometimes overly enthusiastic bands.

POST BAR
(Th Samsen; 5pm-1am; Tha Thewet)
If 'Chinese pawn shop' can be considered a legitimate
design theme, Post Bar has nailed it. The walls of this narrow, shophouse-bound bar are
decked with retro Thai kitsch; the soundtrack is appropriately classic rock; and the clientele
overwhelmingly Thai.
