Dok Kaew House Bar บ้านดอกแก้ว — Restaurant in Phaya Thai Subdistrict

My go-to place! It’s cozy and comfortable with great non-AC seating. The house bar is tucked away in a small alley, but all the craft beer fans in Ari still flock to this spot, and it can even get packed on weekends. I love everything here—the craft beer selection is varied, and the staff is always happy to explain the differences between the beers and help you choose the best one. You can even try the different taps before making your selection. They offer both small and large sizes, and while the price isn’t cheap, you’re paying for great beer and an amazing vibe.

Without AC, it can get a little hot at times, but the chilled vibe really makes it all worth it. The food is also great, with Northern Thai dishes that have a fusion twist, like spaghetti with Thai flavors and ingredients.

They also have live music on weekends, which is definitely the best time to visit. 100%...

Pros:

• Cozy, home-like atmosphere • Delicious craft beer (including many imported options), ranging in taste. I loved their Pilsner and IPA • Great food. I recommend grilled beef and potato salad • Friendly and polite staff • Reasonable prices (on average 150 baht per dish + 200 baht for a regular glass of craft beer) • Many board games so it’s a good idea to come here with friends • Fast wi-fi so if you want to do some work, better come from 5pm to 7pm when it’s quiet

Cons:

• Many mosquitoes • The location is a little off the beaten path

Verdict: Excellent beer house,...

An absolute gem of a spot! The atmosphere is incredibly cozy and welcoming, feels just like home. The beer selection was great, and the lovely guy in the bar was not only knowledgeable but also passionate about what they do, which made the experience even better. The short live music set was a perfect touch, creating such a warm and intimate vibe. And to top it all off, the resident cat gave me all the love, making my night even more special. I had the best time and can’t wait to come back! I would absolutely reccomend...
