Sugar Ray, You've Just Been Poisoned

If you’re looking for a speakeasy in town, don’t go any further. Quaint, chic and cozy lounge and bar. Small but not confined space where you feel immediately welcomed by the staff and bartenders. The deep forest green coloured interior makes the premises feel mysterious, yet accessible. Cocktails are well thought through, without being complex! Staff are very nice and make you feel comfortable. Definitely recommend. Definitely going back!

LIVES up to its name — mysterious, playful, and dangerously good drinks. The bartenders are true artists who know how to surprise you with every pour. Perfect spot for a late-night chill with friends or a quiet date in a moody, speakeasy-style atmosphere. The vibe, the music, and the drinks — everything just clicks. One of the coolest bars in Bangkok. 🔥🥂 I’ve been coming to Sugar Ray since its very first location on Soi Chamchan, followed it to The Davis Hotel, and now to its third home — and it still feels just as special as the first time. The charm, the warmth, and that easygoing vibe never fade. The drinks remain top-notch, and it’s amazing to see how the team has grown while keeping the same heart and character. A bar that truly evolves with time but never loses its soul. Always a pleasure to come back. 🥂✨

“Loved their cocktails — especially the Antidote zone. Every dessert-style drink was great. I had the Matcha Colada (a special, not on the regular menu) and it was amazing. The Thai tea one was delicious too. Nice vibe and reasonable prices.

Sugar Ray: You've Just Been Poisoned is pure magic. The speakeasy vibe—dim lights, and that perfect hush—feels like stepping into a secret world. The staff? Absolute legends: warm, witty, and genuinely passionate about every pour. You don’t just get a drink; you get a story. Hands down, Bangkok’s coziest, coolest cocktail hideout.

Great menu, good combo of classics and house specialities. The staff are fantastic, prompt service, great advice and recommendations and super friendly. I had a 20th century cocktail which may now be my fave drink of all time. So pleased these guys have opened up in a new location on the same soi, I missed them while they were closed!

The atmosphere is great, and the bartender is really friendly. Just tell them what kind of drink you’d like, and you’ll get exactly what suits your taste—delicious and satisfying.

All the drinks we ordered were exquisite and well-balanced. I love the Thai tea since it is very unique in Thai style. The flavor was balanced with sweet and sour notes to start. I had my second drink as the lemon tart. It was so good that I could imagine eating a lemon tart without feeling overwhelmed. Applause to the playful combination it brought to my appetite.

A really fun hidden speakeasy that’s tucked in the back of Octo Seafood Bar. Check out my video and Maps screenshot for help locating the bar, since the current Maps location simply shows it as within Octo Seafood Bar. This bar has a lot of great things going for it, including the fun menu set up of “poisons” vs. “antidotes” (the poisons being higher alcohol percentage). The atmosphere is halfway between nightclub and romantic dinner. They have a DJ who comes in around 9:30pm. The drinks are all pretty interesting. I liked the lychee Paloma a lot—it was sour, sweet, and a bit spicy. My only criticism is that the sweetness could be toned down a bit. I tried “The Butterfly Effect”—a mixture of hundreds of types of liquor—and it was, well, expectedly kind of gross. A fun concept anyways. I was also able to order one of my favorite drinks, a mezcal sour. It was pretty tasty, though I needed to add more lemon for extra sourness. Overall, it’s a good experience, and the staff is very helpful and friendly. I’d certainly come back for a date or bring a group of friends here. I feel like this is a proper pregame spot. It also isn’t too far from Bar Us and Freaking Out the Neighborhood, if you want to go speakeasy hopping!
