The 20 Best Bars In Bangkok - Bangkok - The Infatuation

"Honey and alcohol have been best buddies for around 30,000 years—a.k.a. when they discovered mead—and this bar is serious about the ingredient. Asia Today works closely with gatherers from different parts of Thailand to incorporate wild honey into their cocktails. If you’re worried about the drinks being too sweet, don’t be—they always nail the right balance, and it feels like the team is pushing the limits of how different honey cocktails can be. The Eastern Honey, made with stuff from the bee of the same name, also uses gin, sesame, lime, and then gets topped with wild honey foam, and served in a beeswax mug (please don’t bite the beeswax mug). For a nightcap, their Irish coffee uses coffee blossom honey from Chiang Rai, and it’s as good as it sounds." - vichayuth chantan

Bangkok Bars Showcase the Thai Craft Liquor Scene

"A neighborhood bar owned by Niks Anuman that illustrates Thailand’s agricultural abundance in cocktail form — for example, bartenders crack open fresh coconuts and pour in rum distilled from sugarcane juice only days earlier to create a vividly fresh, terroir-driven drink that celebrates local ingredients." - Clara Wang

Asia Today Bar is an absolutely amazing experience and a must-try in the neighborhood. Drinking cocktails here feels like discovering something truly special. They use local Thai honey in their drinks, and it makes every cocktail feel unique, thoughtful, and deeply connected to Thailand. The flavors are creative, balanced, and unlike anything we’ve tried elsewhere. The staff are incredible — genuinely kind, patient, and passionate. They take the time to explain everything as much as you want, from the ingredients to the story behind each drink, without ever making it feel rushed or pretentious. You really feel welcomed and taken care of. The atmosphere is relaxed, cool, and intimate — perfect for actually enjoying your drinks and the experience. This isn’t just a bar; it’s a place where craft, culture, and hospitality come together beautifully. If you’re in the area, this is a must-try at least once (though you’ll probably come back). One of the best cocktail experiences we had in Bangkok. Highly recommended. 🍯🍸

I’ve always wanted to go to Asia Today, but every time I tried it was packed with a long line. Luckily, last night we managed to get a lovely table for four by the window and had an amazing experience. This cocktail bar in Chinatown is so cool. They use wild, single-origin Thai honey in their cocktails, which is incredibly niche and unique. My husband had the Bee’s Knees, our friends each tried different cocktails, and I had a 0% alcohol drink that was surprisingly delicious. The service was incredible as well—friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable.

We had four drinks in total and bought some honey. It was an interesting experience to taste some of the rare honey harvested in Thailand. The staff are young yet professional. A lovely place, not too noisy and with good vibes.

Super cool bar / speakeasy in Chinatown. The manager, Oolong, is really friendly and made me feel welcome immediately. The bartenders, Dream and Tea, are absolute magicians! The cocktails, music, and vibe are great. Highly recommend stopping by if you can.

Asia Today is hands-down one of the coolest bars I’ve been to in Bangkok. Tucked away in Chinatown, it has this moody, intimate vibe that makes you feel like you’ve stumbled into a secret. But the real magic? The drinks. I came specifically to try the Apis Dorsata cocktail, and it did not disappoint. Made with wild honey from the giant rock bee of Thailand, it’s served in a beeswax mug (yes, really!) and topped with wild honey foam. The flavor was unreal—earthy, floral, slightly nutty, and perfectly balanced. Not overly sweet, just super complex and smooth. You can tell they take their ingredients seriously. The bartenders were super friendly and clearly passionate about what they do. They walked me through the story behind the honey and how they work with local gatherers. It felt like more than just a drink—it was a whole experience. If you’re into cocktails that push boundaries and tell a story, Asia Today is a must. The Apis Dorsata alone is worth the visit.

Actually went here a couple of years ago, and just came across old photos of my visit there. It was a great place for Friday after work drinks, interesting decor, good, chilled vibe, a good place for a relaxing drink. I hope it's still the same!

Legit fancy (but not over priced) bar! Went there with some friends but would go there solo as well… bartender Oolong (like the tea) was very pleasant, attentive to clients, and knowledgeable bar tender. Had 3 cocktails myself… and they were all amazing… only one I remember was the first one with honey in a wax cup as I remember her telling us not to eat the wax/cup. ;P Also tried few other bars in the area, they all solid but this o e was my favorite based on bar tender and drinks… Note it is a small place, but the turnover is quick so if they are packed “go next door” then come back…. or not… Really enjoyed the music… turns out owner is a DJ but that is a story for another day….

We had the absolute best experience tonight! Oolong and all of the service team were exceptional. If you come here and do not try their self made rum and honeys you are missing out on the experience of a lifetime. I will reminisce over what a fabulous night we just had. The cocktails are what to come for and the story is what to remember forever.
