What people think (4.8 stars out of 5 stars, 419 reviews)
| Chanakan Chaidaroon: “Nice atmosphere and drinks. Good Thai and Western live music. Especially if you prefer a chilling night out somewhere with less crowds. Watching sunset from the rooftop and the lights along the street withing neighbor is recommended. The staffs are friendly and nice, even though they are quite busy.” |
| Thanat Jatuphattharachat: “A secret bar near Hua Lam phong. The food is better than you’d expect. The Pork knuckle with a thin, crispy skin is a must. I like the Umeshu (Plum wine) here; it has a nice sweet taste unlike what I have had before. Advertisements
The entrance is a bit disorganised. Hopefully, they can make some improvements.” |

| nice ncd: “The atmosphere is perfect for a date! Everything is just right—music, singers, delicious food, and great prices. It’s also easy to get to since it’s right by the BTS. If you’re in the area, I highly recommend stopping by. The mood is just amazing!” |
| LeoverySexy: “It’s a chill spot with a relaxed atmosphere. The place is beautifully designed and comfortable, with a friendly vibe. The staff is lovely, and you can join in and sing along with the performers. The cocktails are delicious. I like that you can have a conversation on the second floor while still hearing the live music, but if you want to fully immerse yourself in the live music experience, the first floor is the place to be.👌🏻” |

What people think (4.9 stars out of 5 stars, 17 reviews)
| Quentin Huber: “Lovely gem hidden in Ladprao! If you are around you must come and try their fantastic cocktails & delicious dishes. Loved the decor, the service, everything is so on point! Will come back for sure.” |
| Pia Suwannalert: “If you prefer a place with a DJ playing music rather than live bands, I recommend this spot. The food is delicious, and the DJ’s playlist is great. The restaurant accepts cash, QR code payments, and credit cards. A major plus is that it’s very close to the subway—just a 2-minute walk from MRT Phaholyothin, Exit 1; turn right to walk towards Soi Ladprao 4. The restaurant has two floors. Besides the DJ music, the highlight is likely the cocktails, though they also offer beer, craft beer, and wine.” |
