About Permanently Closed - Banana Bar

Banana Bar was a popular community-focused gay bar located on Silom Soi 4, one of Bangkok’s most well-known LGBTQ+ nightlife streets. Opened in 2017, the venue quickly built a loyal following for its relaxed, social atmosphere and stylish three-floor layout. With low ambient lighting, contemporary décor, and a soundtrack of house music, Banana Bar offered a welcoming alternative to louder clubs while still maintaining a lively, upbeat vibe. The bar attracted a mix of local regulars and international visitors, making it an easy place to meet people, unwind with a drink, and enjoy the energy of Silom without pressure or pretension. Banana Bar permanently closed during the COVID-19 pandemic and has not reopened. It remains fondly remembered as part of Bangkok’s LGBTQ+ nightlife scene and the evolution of Silom Soi 4.

Surprisingly I had a great time on a Sunday night. 380B for a drink is the cover charge. I enjoyed the drag shows. You can get the company of a boy by buying them drinks. My experience here was better than F club and W club, where those boys are over zealous with what's in your wallet. Bananas stick out at about 11pm to draw in the customers.

The entrance fee was 380, including a drink. The show was very boring, with almost no actual performance—mostly just standing around. The performers looked exhausted and worn out. I probably wouldn’t come again.

Show was ok but nothing extremely special. Drag Queens show and some man naked. We did not pay entrance fee, therefore the drinks cost 3 times the normal price (small beer 380 Baht, small cocktail 450). We did not see any food serving there and the place is also not made for eating 🤣

Went here twice. The show is great with a lot of acts and new performances. A lot of fun and amazing artists.

Be careful of this staff. He will ask for 200 Baht to get back your own phone (even you are the real owner who can open real passwords in front of them). How lost and found service works at this bar.
