Vesper

Located in the Silom neighbourhood of Bangkok at 10/15 Convent Road (Soi Convent 2), the Vesper Cocktail Bar has become a key destination in the city’s emerging craft cocktail scene. Originally opened in April 2014, Vesper has built a reputation for sophisticated drinks, refined décor, and an atmosphere that blends a European cocktail salon feel with a Bangkok edge. The interior features deep green marble surfaces, leather upholstery, and mid-century touches that give it an elegant but not overly formal vibe. What really sets Vesper apart is its creative cocktail programme: menus that have taken inspiration from art movements, contrasting flavour maps, and a strong emphasis on technique and premium spirits. For example, past menus have invited guests to explore drinks such as the “Moon & Sun” or “Flower Carrier” that combine creative concept with quality ingredients. In addition to its cocktail offerings, Vesper offers a smart-casual setting that works for a date night, a drink before dinner, or a sophisticated gathering with friends. The dress code is smart casual and the house policy asks no flip-flops or athletic wear. Given its recognition — including ranking in the Asia's 50 Best Bars list (for example #29 in 2025) — it often gets crowded, particularly in the later evening. Arriving early or coming just as they open (5:30pm) can improve your chances of getting good seats. The bar also has focused service on each drink, so take your time and savour it. In short: if you’re after cocktails that are more than just sweet and strong, but rather thoughtful, refined and visually interesting — Vesper is a top pick in Bangkok’s cocktail bar scene.
