Dry Wave Cocktail Studio in Thonglor, which ranks No.4 on Asia's 50 Best Bars 2026 and holds the Best Bar in Thailand title, up from No.5 the year before.
Which Bangkok bar areas have the most 50 Best bars?
Chinatown / Yaowarat (G.O.D, Opium, Messenger Service), Sathorn (Dry Wave, Bar Sathorn) and the Sukhumvit strip (Bar Us, Mahaniyom) hold most of them, all walkable in clusters.
Do I need to book these bars?
The top rooms fill up on weekends, so message the bar on Instagram or reserve where possible. Smaller speakeasies like Teens of Thailand and G.O.D are walk-in but can queue late.
How did we rank them?
By their Asia's 50 Best Bars 2026 position first (main list, then the 51-100 extended list), then World's 50 Best Bars, then long-time regulars.
