Which Soi 4 Bars Are Currently Open?

[Fiery Jack]

For this will be my barometer as my trigger finger hovers over the 'Cancel My Trip' button: was planning late-October arrival in BKK but if it's a ghost town ale and tart-wise, I'll hold my horses and just have another hand shandy.

 

Wondering. Morning/Night and the Hillary bars: open?

 

While we're at it, what about Soi 7 Beergarden?

 

18th October today. But don't be shy. If places are closed now, please, anyone in situ, post an update if and when they open again. Thanks.

 

Fully realise it's a time for mourning and quiet respectful reflection. And quite rightly so. But life goes on, as it should and as it must. Just want to know how the land lies before I pack my saddle bags.

 

Cheers, lads.

Everything open, mood very subdued, less lights and in many bars no music.

Soi Nana was closed down by the Army at 12:30 last night, that is Nana Plaza, bars on the soi and EQ.

Most bars not providing entertainment should be open and serving alcohol. I would say proceed FJ

 

There's always Soi 22 and other spots

Thanks lads. This is great stuff. So it's a properly-observed modicum of genuinely mournful, subdued activity. But nothing to make a man such as me change his mind about boarding a Thai-bound flight later this month?

 

Great news. God bless the Thai people. You gotta keep moving forward. No disrespect in that, no sir.

 

Actually (seeing as my dancing days are done, and all I crave now is a few afternoon/early evening jars in peace while I watch the world go by), midnight shutdown and lack of thumping muzak sounds perfect to me.

There was something earlier in the news about enforcing a midnight closing. That means you get more sleep.

Or more rounds of the horizontal mambo.

.... and in many bars no music.

 

What a blessing , they should consider keeping it that way .
