Not to be confused with the nightlife strip off Sukhumvit, the Soi Nana at the edge of Chinatown has become one of Bangkok's most fashionable bar lanes. Old Sino-Portuguese shophouses have been converted into dimly lit cocktail dens, listening bars, and cafes, drawing a creative crowd to what was once a sleepy back street.
The scene is intimate and walkable, easy to combine with a street-food crawl along nearby Yaowarat. Spots like Teens of Thailand and Tep Bar helped pioneer the area's reputation for inventive drinks built around Thai spirits and local ingredients.
