Sukhumvit Soi 55 (Thonglor) and Soi 63 (Ekkamai) are where Bangkok's own money goes out: cocktail rooms, listening bars, natural-wine bars, izakayas and a few clubs with cover charges, spread along two sois that run north from the BTS to Phetchaburi Road. The crowd is Thai, in its late twenties and up, and dressed for it. Rooms fill after 10pm and close at 2am, which the police enforce here. Ekkamai's side sois hold the indie music venues; Thonglor's northern half holds the clubs.
- Closing
- Not on the 4am list; the 2am close is enforced here.
- Getting there
- BTS Thong Lo 960 m from the centre; BTS Ekkamai 1.3 km from the centre. BTS Thong Lo and Ekkamai are at the Sukhumvit end; most bars are 500 m to 1.5 km up the soi, so the last stretch is a motorbike taxi or a walk.
- Dress
- Smart casual; the clubs turn away shorts and sandals.
- District
- Mostly inside Thonglor; the box is drawn over coordinates, so it can cross a district line.
The rules, checked 8 September 2026
- Bars and clubs close at 2am, except in three Bangkok zones licensed to 4am: Silom–Patpong, RCA with New Phetchaburi Road, and Ratchadaphisek Road.
- The drinking age is 20, for Thais and foreigners alike.
- Shops, supermarkets and convenience stores sell alcohol from 11am to midnight every day.

Frequently asked questions
How many bars and clubs are there in Thonglor & Ekkamai?
271 venues inside the Thonglor & Ekkamai box we draw over Google Maps coordinates, 246 rated at an average of 4.7. By scene: 54 live music, 49 karaoke and 40 clubs.
What time do bars close in Thonglor & Ekkamai?
2am. Not on the 4am list; the 2am close is enforced here. Of the 241 venues here with hours on Google, 34 list a close of 3am or later anyway, which says something about enforcement, not the law.
How do you get to Thonglor & Ekkamai and back?
BTS Thong Lo is 960 m from the centre of the area (about 12 minutes on foot), BTS Ekkamai 1.3 km. BTS Thong Lo and Ekkamai are at the Sukhumvit end; most bars are 500 m to 1.5 km up the soi, so the last stretch is a motorbike taxi or a walk.
What should I wear in Thonglor & Ekkamai?
Smart casual; the clubs turn away shorts and sandals. Across Bangkok the rule that catches people out is the rooftop door: no shorts, flip-flops or sleeveless shirts at the high-end places.
Run a bar or club in Thonglor & Ekkamai?
Every venue on this page came from Google Maps, which means the hours, the phone number and the photo are whatever Google had on 8 September 2026. Two ways to fix that. The ✓ Verified badge is free: you confirm your details, we check the listing is real and current, and it moves above every unverified venue in these lists. Featured is the paid slot at the top of the scene and area pages, sold per page so the number of them stays small.
Sources and verification
- Venues, hours, prices, amenity flags and popular-times histograms: Google Maps, scraped on 8 September 2026 for the central nightlife areas listed above. Outer districts were not part of this pass, so a bar in Bang Na or Lat Phrao is not missing by judgement, it is missing by scope.
- A venue's scene (cocktail bar, live music, open past 2am) is computed from Google's category labels, its amenity flags, its name or its listed hours, never asserted by us; the exact rules are in the site's source, and a venue no rule catches appears only under its area.
- Legal facts checked 8 September 2026: the 4am zones against The Nation, Coconuts and the Bangkok Post; retail hours against the Royal Gazette notice of 28 May 2026; the drinking age against the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act B.E. 2551.
- Ratings shown are Google's and are never marked up as ours; no Google review text is reproduced.
- Area box: longitude 100.5765 to 100.598, latitude 13.717 to 13.748; a venue is here because its Google Maps coordinates fall inside, not because of its district column. Back to the nightlife hub.
