Sixteen lines, thirteen of them fixed

The room

Air-conditioned inside, covered outside

Two seating areas

An indoor air-conditioned section, and a covered outdoor section that still works when it rains.

Live music or a DJ

Who plays, and on which nights, changes. It is announced on the bar's Facebook and Instagram rather than here.

Dogs are welcome

The bar is dog-friendly and so is The Commons around it. The building is open-air and dogs are a normal sight in it.

Where you are

Inside The Commons, halfway up Thonglor

The Commons is an open-air building on Soi Thonglor 17, built around food vendors on several levels. The bar is one of the businesses inside it, at ground level behind the stepped central seating.

The Beer Cap is its own business. The Commons is a separate company and the landlord — the bar is a tenant in the building, not a part of it.

Same owner

Two more places, at the north end of Thonglor

The same owner runs two venues about two kilometres north of here, where Thonglor meets Phetchaburi. They answer a different question to this one: come here if you are arriving by BTS or are already in central Thonglor, and go there if you are driving and want free parking, if you are a big group, or if you are coming by canal boat.

Saphan 55

Restaurant, cafe and event space at the north end of Thonglor, under the canal bridge that gives it its name.

Go for free on-site parking, room for a big group, a 300-guest event space, and the canal boat pier 60 m away
