BKK Brief Bar Report Jan 2025

[Shax]

I was in BKK last week for a short trip and checked out some of the bars. Thought I'd share some observations from my visits. The info on off fees, tips and 2nd drinks in some of the bars were told to me by the mamasan at those bars (I only offed one guy on this trip lol).

 

Moonlight

1st Drink: THB 500

 

Sad to see what has become of Moonlight. I was there twice just to confirm if the vibes on both days are the same (they were). On both occassions, the bar only had a few patrons. There were less than 15 boys on rotation, most being twinks with the exception of maybe 2 twunks (apparently, the most popular guys in the bar) who didn't show much interest in patrons. The shows were the same old, nothing particularly exciting. 

 

All in all, the mood in the bar was depressing. The mamasan complained about the lack of asian customers esp during CNY when they expected a lot or customers from China.

 

Atlas

1st drink:THB 500

Boy's drink: THB 500

 

I was here just once (as this was a short trip). The bar was pretty lively with a few group of patrons. There were 3-4 bodybuilders (off season but still in good shape) formerly from Tawan, a few twinks and a few uncles(?) (neither twink nor bodybuilder/hunks) on rotation (none of them had tags on, but can be off-ed). I had one of my previous off sitting with me and met with the owner, who recognised me from Tawan before. According to the guy who sat with me, he prefers working at Atlas compared to The One as the owner doesn't charge the boys bar fine if they can't make it for the night, a flexibility they don't get at The One. And it's a plus that they are already familiar with the owner.

 

The show had a mix of drag and Tawan's usuals (big cock, bdsm & all, but without the fuck show on the night I was there). The space was big and more comfortable. They had some issues with the sound system at some point in the show, but was fixed right away.

 

The One

1st drink: THB 500

 

I went here out of curiousity to see how it is going with Atlas now open. I regretted it.

 

The was only 1 off-season bodybuilder (a guy I offed before), a chubby guy, a twink and two other guys (former bodybuilders I guess, but nowhere near that now). There was only 1 other customer (this was around 10.15pm). The annoying doorman is still there, asking me to buy him a drink the moment I sat down (I declined).

 

The bar felt dead. I didn't finish my drink and just left after a few mins.

 

Jupiter

1st drink: THB 600

2nd drink: THB 450

Off fee: THB 500

Boy's tips: min THB 3000

 

I was here twice. The bar was full on both nights, mainly with Asian customers (maybe around 1/3 of the patron were ladies). The boys and the shows were the Jupiter's usual standard - excellent if it you're into that type of show (I am).  Had a good chat with one of the captains, who gave me some useful info on which boys are available and which of them only goes with ladies (spoiler - almost all of the boys doing the sexy performances with the drag queens exclusively go with ladies).

 

I didn't manage to off anyone (the ones I was interested to take were all booked by others) so next trip, I'll probably be there a little earlier.

 

Hotmale

1st drink: THB 500

Off fee: THB 500

Boy's tips: min THB 2000

 

I was here just once. The boys range from twinks to boy-next-door to twunk. A few of them are offable to me. The show is pretty much the same as before, with cameo from Moonlight's dance crew.

 

Fresh Boys

1st drink: THB 500

2nd drink: THB 300 (i think, my total bill was 1.3k)

Off fee: THB 500

Boy's tip: min THB 2500

 

This was an unexpected visit for me. I've never really had Fresh Boys in mind when checking out bars as I thought they were more catered towards those into twinks based on the last time I was there many years ago (I prefer more muscle on my guys). That said, decided to just give it a shot out of curiosity and ended up taking a guy back lol.

 

They had a huge stable of guys (slightly less than Jupiter but fairly big). The boys are mix of Vietnamese, Cambodians and Thais. There were quite a few twunks with toned bodies, but large number of the boys were twinks or next door type. The show was pretty much the same format as others (drag, sexy dance, big cock etc). The bar was crowded the night I was there. 

 

I had a good time with my off. Well spoken handsome, toned Vietnamese guy. He's pretty popular from what I understand and was happy to try out new things to make customer happy. I would definitely take him out again next time.

This was regarding Jupiter, which has perhaps 20-25 boys in the rotation. What's your estimate as to what percent of them will not go out with male customers, but only with women?

As for The One, thanks for spending 500 baht just to find out and sharing your "research" with us. It's very much what I expect the situation to be. They're probably locked into a long lease, so it may be a painfully slow demise.

Did you make it to the Good Boy bar?

Wow! You visited most of the bars in your one week! Thanks for report, especially on The One. Many forum members are wondering how things are there after the opening of Atlas.

I can't say for sure, since I only asked about those models I was interested in (most of them performed in the shows). Out of those models, only 2 would go out with guys. 

As for the other models, some were quite obviously gay and I saw quite a few str8 looking ones sitting with male guests, so maybe the "exclusively go out with women" are in the minority. Best to ask the mamasan if you're interested in any particular model.

Haha i was one of those who asked in a different thread, so thought I could just go and check the bar out myself. My act of service for the forum members 🤣

Unfortunately not. I was there for less than a week, so I was bar hopping most nights but never made it to Good Boy 😅

Thank you for this trip report and the current rates for drinks and off fees.

Your report have shed some light to our curiosity towards what's happening in The One. It seems that is now just an empty shell and a shadow from its former glory.
