Several bars aimed at young Thai socialisers have sprung up at the Or Tor Kor farmer's market area, near Chatuchak. A stone's throw from the Kamphaeng Phet MRT station exit 1 are at least 20 small pubs, bars and restaurants that operate every day of the week.

This is the second branch of this popular German microbrewery the first branch is at Rama III Road near Silom. It is mostly popular among upper middle-class Thais. There's good food at reasonable prices, and a good stage show with many acts and fun music. It is a stretch to find it, as it is far off from Phahonyothin Road, but the trip is well worth it. Most taxis will know this place, just ask for the "Rong Beer Yereman" German Beer Hall and they should understand. Reservations are recommended, especially on weekends.
