Sugar Ray, You've Just Been Poisoned — Restaurant in Khlong Tan Subdistrict

A really fun hidden speakeasy that’s tucked in the back of Octo Seafood Bar. Check out my video and Maps screenshot for help locating the bar, since the current Maps location simply shows it as within Octo Seafood Bar.

This bar has a lot of great things going for it, including the fun menu set up of “poisons” vs. “antidotes” (the poisons being higher alcohol percentage). The atmosphere is halfway between nightclub and romantic dinner. They have a DJ who comes in around 9:30pm.

The drinks are all pretty interesting. I liked the lychee Paloma a lot—it was sour, sweet, and a bit spicy. My only criticism is that the sweetness could be toned down a bit. I tried “The Butterfly Effect”—a mixture of hundreds of types of liquor—and it was, well, expectedly kind of gross. A fun concept anyways. I was also able to order one of my favorite drinks, a mezcal sour. It was pretty tasty, though I needed to add more lemon for extra sourness.

Overall, it’s a good experience, and the staff is very helpful and friendly. I’d certainly come back for a date or bring a group of friends here. I feel like this is a proper pregame spot. It also isn’t too far from Bar Us and Freaking Out the Neighborhood, if you want to go...

A good bar with some interesting drink concepts if you’re looking for a chill place to chat and grab a quick drink or two with a small group of friends.

The place is kinda hidden, but see my pics. Find the giant octopus and ask the peeps at the entrance, they will point you to the entrance towards the back.

Very tasty drinks available. Recommend the half of game selection or the naughty boy. The Robert brownie jr was awful though. Complimentary snacks and water provided.

Friendly, fast and efficient service. Available also in Thai and English. Very vigilant, but somehow they take the menu away and it feels as if they only expect people to stick around for a single drink.

DJ on site, kinda quirky but mellow.

Payments accepted with cash, some payment app, cards.

Handicap friendly and wheelchair accessible. Ground floor entry.

Smoking area outdoor, within the bar’s view.

Parking is safe and easy nearby.

Printed menu.

Restrooms nearby on site.

Indoor seating only, with AC.

WiFi, ask...

LIVES up to its name — mysterious, playful, and dangerously good drinks. The bartenders are true artists who know how to surprise you with every pour.

Perfect spot for a late-night chill with friends or a quiet date in a moody, speakeasy-style atmosphere. The vibe, the music, and the drinks — everything just clicks. One of the coolest bars in Bangkok. 🔥🥂

I’ve been coming to Sugar Ray since its very first location on Soi Chamchan, followed it to The Davis Hotel, and now to its third home — and it still feels just as special as the first time.

The charm, the warmth, and that easygoing vibe never fade. The drinks remain top-notch, and it’s amazing to see how the team has grown while keeping the same heart and character. A bar that truly evolves with time but never loses its soul. Always a pleasure to...
