New Top Man Bar is one of my favorite
places to while away the hours. It is Thai-owned, super clean, with
genuine boys, good drinks and great prices. The new manager, Khun Dow, welcomes you to stop in see the many new dancers.
To
get to Top Man and Patpong by BTS Skytrain, go to SALA DAENG Station (Silom
Line) and use Exit 3 (Robinson). Soi 2 , where Top Man is, is 100
meters.
But beware of imitations -- there is only one Top Man A-Go-Go
Bar, and it is in Bangkok.
TOP MAN A-GO-GO BAR
8/9 Silom Soi 2, Silom Rd. Tel. 632-8934
Open Daily: 7 pm-2 am
Two DJs and a show at 10:30 PM nightly
Drinks only 130 Baht (beer, soda, spirits)
Up the stairs at the end of the alley (Soi 2) gets you admission to this
bar. Sit in the luxurious pit in front of the stage, or higher up at the
back for an overall view. Note the small altar where the boys often
pray. Enjoy the new sound system, the dancing and friendly, non-pushy
companionship, if that is your desire.
If you like the place and want to return several times during your trip,
Parn suggests buying a "Set." I did this on my last trip. Basically,
you are purchasing a bottle of booze, which will be kept at the bar for up to a
month. This gives you more than 30 drinks--and you can share them with the
boys and guests.
The bartenders are friendly and efficient
and are here to serve your every need.
