10 Best Rooftops for Cocktails in Bangkok

Bangkok's skyline is crowded with rooftops, but only a handful take their cocktails as seriously as their view. After three years visiting and filming the city's sky bars, these are the rooms where the drink in your hand matters as much as the panorama.

Our top pick is Spire at Dusit Thani, where the cocktail program comes from the team behind Tropic City, the award-winning Charoen Krung bar that closed in April 2026 after eight years near the top of the World's 50 Best Discovery list. The pedigree shows in every glass. We also send cocktail lovers to The Norm, which opened in December 2025 and still flies under the radar of most rooftop round-ups. We visited in its first week and several times since, and the cocktails are genuinely excellent.

If you like your drinks original and a little playful, Pastel and AESOPS both build creative, occasionally sweet menus worth exploring. Chocolate fans should head to Cocoa XO, where the cocktails pair with a chocolate-cave experience you will not find anywhere else up high. And if you would rather have a cold beer than a stirred-down classic, Belga and Brewski are the rooftops for you. Browse our full picks below, each with menus, prices and how to book.
