Ruby's

Cocktails are like a kiss; we often take more than we give.

I popped in on a quiet Thursday and was seriously impressed by the cocktails—each one felt like a mini adventure, especially the Ruby and Opal. Plus, Poon’s service was effortlessly cool without being over the top, making it a perfect chill spot to unwind.

Nestled inside the Kimpton, Ruby's is a cocktail bar that excels in delivering beautifully crafted drinks that cater to all palates. The knowledgeable bartenders ensure that each guest's experience is exceptional, with flavors that delight and surprise. Whether you're a cocktail connoisseur or just looking to enjoy a unique drink in a cozy setting, Ruby's offers an impeccable blend of taste and ambiance.

Our visit to Ruby's was the perfect prelude to an evening in Bangkok's city center. The seasonal martinis crafted by Poon were a standout, offering unexpected flavors like garlic, pepper, and coriander root in the "My Martini." These drinks were complemented by delicious small bites and engaging stories about local culture, making it an unforgettable experience. The bartenders' expertise and the thoughtfully executed concept make this place a must-visit for cocktail enthusiasts.

Ruby's offers a truly "Omakase Cocktail" experience with a menu of 16 original drinks, including 14 cocktails and 2 mocktails. The bar is a gem within the Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok, featuring unique cocktails like Diamond, Beryl, Opal, and Ruby that can't be found elsewhere. The setting is comfortable, quiet, and elevated by the professionalism and friendliness of bartenders K. Boom and K. Poon. A visit here is made even more rewarding as IHG One members can earn points, and the chef's gem nibbles are a delightful and affordable treat.
