● ARTSY, QUIRKY

River City Lots of small art spaces to check out in one visit, so there are more chances to meet the finicky art folk.

Warehouse 30 Not just good for art lovers, but vintage collectors, too.

Arcadia Arcade machines in a small space that will force everyone to talk to each other— and there’s a rooftop space where you can chill and smoke weed.

Jam After a short hiatus, Jam is back as a fun, artsy music at and art dive—as well as regular golden toilet karaoke if you want to pick up with your pipes.

● MUSIC FANS

Speakerbox It’s the best live band dive in the city and there’s plenty of friendly people to strike up a conversation whether to reggaeton or local rock.

Freaking out the Neighbourhood Only proper audiophiles need apply at this hipster hang. If you’ve got vinyl that costs more than your car, this is where you’ll meet your soul mate.

De Commune Whether it’s a live band or DJs, this is where the cool kids go to hang and dance.

Politicos And Convo Starters

Treppenhaus A coffee shop that regularly holds talks and meet-ups for people who are passionate about social and political issues.

Patpong Museum Join one of their museum tours to meet like-minded people who want to learn about the city’s sordid history.

Taopiphop Bar Project The owner of this craft brew spot is literally an MP, so.

Sukhumvit Soi 11 Full of tourists up for borderless fun. Here you can mix convo with dumplings and clubbing.

RCA While a lot of this can be all about the ONS, try your luck.

W District This place is already full of awkward Tinder dates. Other than that it’s international school teachers winding down with a tower of Singha.

SUGAR DADDY/ MOMMA

Bar Yard This is one of the few high-end hotel bars that can actually be fun. Embrace the tiki chic and look for a loner.

Thonglor 10 This is the natural hunting ground of the nouveau riche. Get your designer gear in order.

Thaipioka Another spot for the new (and young) rich with expensive cocktails to boot, this place can be surprisingly thumping on a weekend.
