50th Street Bar & Grill
BAR
( 01-397 060; www.50thstreetyangon; 9-13 50th St, Botataung; 11am-midnight; )
One of
Yangon's longest established Western-style bars, in a handsomely restored colonial
building, 50th Street continues to draw in the crowds with its mix of event nights ($6 piz-
zas and jazz on Wednesday, salsa every second Tuesday, live music on Friday), free pool
table and all-day happy hour on Sunday.
Coffee Club
CAFE
(

;
cnr 11th St & Mahabandoola Rd, Latha; 9am-7pm; )
Above a
mobile-phone shop is this hip cafe hangout where you can get a soy latte or extra-strong
espresso fix with a side order of gourmet sandwich, pie or cake (courtesy of Yangon
Bakehouse). Slip back in time by leafing through the stock of vintage news magazines.
Zero Zone Rock Restaurant
BAR
(4th fl, 2 Theingyi Zei Market, Latha)
This rooftop bar is more fun than the unintentionally
self-deprecating name suggests. Live music starts at 7pm, there's a 'fashion show' of
parading girls, the draught beer is cheap and the cool breezes are free.
Sky Bistro
BAR
(20th fl, Sakura Tower, cnr Sule Paya Rd & Bogyoke Aung San Rd, Kyauktada;
9am-10pm;
)
Certainly not the sexiest place in Yangon for a night out, but the views from the 20th
floor are pretty impressive and happy hour runs from 4pm to 10pm. Bar snacks and other
dishes are also available.
Wadan Jetty Beer Station
BEER STATION
(Wadan Jetty, Lanmadaw; 6am-9pm)
Entering the docks from the main road, turn right at
the waterfront to find this small beer station with a cluster of outdoor seating. It's a great
spot for sunset drinks when you can also watch (or join in) with locals playing football or
the local sport of
chinlon
.
