Shelby Bar

Shelby has arrived in Bangkok, bringing its Nimman energy down to Thonglor 11. Tucked off Sukhumvit 55 at 235/1 Soi Thonglor 11, it’s the kind of spot that wakes up after dinner: lights low, bass warm, bartenders moving fast, and a crowd that’s here to make a night of it. Come early for an easy first round from 6pm, or roll in later when the volume climbs and the room turns social. Expect the Thonglor mix—stylish locals, creatives, a few industry faces—catching up over classic pours and party‑forward drinks. Prices are very Thonglor (think quality over Khao San happy‑hours), but the vibe delivers: upbeat, unpretentious, and made for last rounds that somehow become the next round. You’ll find it on Soi 11, a quick moto‑taxi from BTS Thong Lo. If you’re coming from Khao San, grab a taxi and aim for Watthana; this is a solid pre‑game before clubs on Ekkamai, or an easy late finish when you don’t feel like queuing. Open daily from 6pm till late—check their Instagram for the night’s pulse and any specials.
