Slightly Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 The closer to Asoke the better I think. I have a great condo in Phra Khanong and everyday I wish I was just a few BTS stops closer to Thong lo/Nana etc. taxis are great in the evening but during the day BTS is the only way to travel. Traffic makes daytime taxi rides torture. If you need a hand I know a great Agent to help you find a place. Perfect English and French (and beautiful too). One of my friends tell me, On Nut is the new up and coming area to get a trendy apartment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slightly Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Hello I am in On Nut Sukhumvit 85 for 3 days I am with my wife and would like to go to a few bars that are nearby I want to stay fairly local so would appreciate any advice Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westexpat3 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Probably too old to help you but for others, there are no real bars Out in on nut or phrakhanong or out towards bangchak until you get to udom Suk 103. Even then they are thai bars. On nut is up and coming for thai couples or expats with some money but also a lot of expat teachers with no money but they can afford new modern condos for 15000-30000b/month. It’s pretty shitty to be honest, no good restaurants and no nightlife and quite along way to get to Asoke or nana. Ekkamai and thonglor have thai nightclubs and expat pubs.

schnytzal Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Langsuan's probably the best compromise if you don't mind burning money. Nice places, good restaurants, easy access to night life without soaking in it, and quite close to Wireless (where the Embassy/Consulate are).

dannyth Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 There are so many great places to live in Bangkok, and around Fashion Island is pretty good with access to good transport links and lots of uni girls to avoid the whole P4P scene if thats what you would prefer.

bkk1983 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I think the best compromise is around on nut- udom suk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slightly Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Guys Thanks for the advice I will carry on looking a bit further out. Does anyone know if there are any farang bars in Chatuchak / Samrong or anywhere in the suburbs ideally near BTS or MRT ? I am looking for areas where I can live and have a few beers. I am not looking for night life and girls. Just friendly locals and a quiet beer or 2. Done the night scene years ago so now just looking for a quieter life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westexpat3 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Saphan khwai has alot of options I would guess so does Chatuchak and worth checking. Have a look around seacon square or ramkhahaeng near the stadium. Big foreign university up there which always means bars and girls. Getting in and out sucks so you might want to invest in a motorcycle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slightly Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 Thanks for the advice I wont be in Bangkok until February 2020 so I will start looking then. In the meantime I will read the replies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangkokBeats Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 Hello I am in On Nut Sukhumvit 85 for 3 days I am with my wife and would like to go to a few bars that are nearby I want to stay fairly local so would appreciate any advice Thanks Couple of decent bars in On Nut try 'Cheap Charlies' its on Soi 50, there's another bar just next to it with a pool table and a few restaurants in the same area. There's also a beer garden near the BTS and another food court/beer garden down Soi 81. On Nut is a pretty decent area to live it's got pretty much everything you need, shopping mall with Cinema, good gym, couple of big super markets, food courts, restaurants, couple of bars, massage shops and a BTS station. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
