Chiang Mai Nightlife: Inside Bohemian Bar & Cafe

Chiang Mai has it all -- beer bars, karaoke bars and clubs.

Alcohol prices:

Beer Chang: 25-30 B for a drink, 50-70 B for a large bottle (at "local" restaurants)

Bottle of Sangsom (Thailand whiskey): 100 B

Thai "buckets" (a combination of Sangsom, energy drink, coke and ice): from 150 B (the cheapest I ever bought in Chiang Mai)

Bohemian Café & Bar

A small bar with cozy red interior, comfortable chairs and relaxed atmosphere. I just fell in love with their lamps!

Bohemian is a good place to start your early drinking -- listening to chill-out music. You can also choose to sit outside in their relaxing garden.

It's a great place to grab a Singha!

THC Roof Top Bar

-- on Th Kotchasan (restaurant downstairs)

If you want to go out, meet people and listen to drum and bass, this is the place to go.

On the way up, you'll see the coolest paintings and graffities on the walls. Even their Western toilet is colourful! When you get upstairs, you can sit on floor pillows while sipping a bucket and talking to other friendly travellers.

The place is so chill and relaxing that it`s almost intoxicating.

What's a bucket

A Thai bucket is a mix of Thai Whisky (Samsong), redbull, coke and ice. It taste like...Coke, but spiced up!

Heaven Beach

It was always packed the two nights I was there!

And this is why:

They have live local bands and you can listen to Thais singing various classics, like Red Hot, Killers or Oasis, and the audience can sing along. The "perfect" music and the "perfect" (drunken) crowd create a loud and happy atmosphere!

I can`t remember the exact location of the bar, but it`s located in Th Ratchawithi area (Moon Muang direction).

>Rasta Bar

We wanted to start our evening at Rasta Bar -- a large Singha cost 55 B. It`s a chill-out bar where they of course play reggae music.

Go here if the atmosphere on Heaven Beach is too much for you. They`re just a few meters apart.
