About this place Circus (ex-Telephone Pub)

This listing sits on Silom Soi 4, the short lane off Silom Road that has been the centre of Bangkok's gay bar scene since the 1980s. Its name (Circus Soi 4), website (Telephone Pub) and address do not line up, so it is unclear which bar the page represents. Telephone Pub is the soi's long-running bar, known for its original table telephones. Soi 4 is busiest from about 10pm, with terrace seating for people-watching. Check the current name and address before you go.

I visited this restaurant back in the 2010s. The atmosphere was great, the decor was beautiful, and all the staff were lovely. The place was reasonably clean.
