Hidden Cocktails With A Gimmick
This hidden bar leans into its pawnshop disguise, with guests entering as if they have something to sell before heading upstairs for drinks. The room feels compact and private, sometimes dressed in a Chinese style, and the cocktails carry most of the attention. Some say the setting has lost a bit of its old theatrical excess, but the place still runs on clever concealment, a relaxed mood, and the occasional snack beside the glass.

Honest Mistake Bar · Reviews
The place is pretty amusing in the best way — you sort of have to play along with the pawnshop idea before heading upstairs for drinks. It’s clever, a bit hidden, and honestly kind of charming. The cocktails were nicely done, and the fried bananas were a nice bonus with the drinks.
Suphot Srisuk (2026)I really liked the atmosphere here, especially the Chinese-style feel and how welcoming the staff were. It has that calm, tucked-away vibe that makes it easy to settle in for the night. A good spot when you want something relaxed instead of loud.
Phaisan Prasong (2026)Hidden away in Ari, this bar has a fun pawnshop theme that gives it a quirky personality. I had a gin and tonic and it was solid, though a little on the expensive side. Still, it’s a nice place to sit with friends, have a drink, and just take it easy.
Alfie F. (2026)This place still has some charm, but it’s not quite what it used to be. What was once a wonderfully decorated, almost museum-like spot has shrunk down a lot, and some of the old character feels worn out now. The cocktails are fine, the staff are lovely, and the prices are easy on the wallet, so it still has decent value.
