Angelwitch
Nana Entertainment Plaza Sukhumvit Soi 4, 2nd Floor
Hours: 7:00pm-2:00am
One of the most popular Nana Entertainment Plaza GoGo’s. They are best known for the Cabaret style shows that usually begin around 10:30pm. A medium size stage and plenty of seating. They have enjoyed quite a bit of success over the years but unfortunately that has brought along attitude and higher priced drinks. Good for newbies to see the shows but once you’ve seen the same show three times there isn’t much reason to stay. They are pros here and will work you for every baht in your wallet but if you don’t know any better it won’t matter and you’ll have a great time.
Big Dogs Beer Bar
Nana Plaza
One of the most famous Beer Bars in not only Nana Entertainment Plaza but in all of Thailand. Situated at the entrance of the plaza Big Dogs has some of the best views on this planet. The seating extends along soi 4 and along the entrance and is raised a bit so you can check it all out. A favorite Punter spot for years to watch the crowd roll in and out of the plaza.
Carnival
Nana Plaza
Carnival is a huge bar on the third floor of Nana Plaza located on the right side. It is huge, but at present not very busy. In the center of the bar, are two rotating carousels, one on top of the other, on which the girls are dancing. So you will have a constant change of view, and if you have a favored girl, you will have to wait from time to time till she turns round again.
Carousel (Hollywood Strip)
Nana Plaza
Carousel (formerly named Hollywood Strip, which I think now refers to both Carousel and Hollywood Two) is a huge bar on the third floor of Nana Plaza. Take the stairs on the left when entering and take all the stairs you notice going ever higher up, while neglecting all the touts and thugs who try to get you into other bars on the way. The bar now has two rotating carousels with about ten- twelve girls dancing on each of them. In between the two carousels there would still be sufficient place to have another bar altogether.
Fantasia
Nana Plaza
Fantasia, the smallest a-go-go bar of the Crown group of bars, is located on the second floor, just to the left after you exit the escalator (on the left after entering Nana Plaza). It has always been a favorite with some customers, although lately it has seen less customers. Some time ago, it used to have quite a few attractive girls, but a whole lot of them seem to have left for greener pastures. As in all the other bars of the same group, a carousel rotating platform is present in the middle of the dancing stage.
GeSpot
Nana Plaza
GeSpot is the only big bar on the second floor of Nana Plaza, and is located in the far right corner. It has no less than 3 dance stages. When you enter a smaller one is to the left of you, one very large longitudinal one to the right, and further right another smaller dance stage. The girls have some more space here to dance than in some of the other bars, and some actually do this.
Hollywood 2
Nana Plaza
Hollywood Two is located on the third floor, next to its sister bar of the Hollywood Strip group, Carousel bar. The bar is slightly smaller than Carousel, but still large when compared to most bars at Nana Plaza. There are now two rotating carousels. On some days, when traffic is low, or few girls (still) working, one carousel may be empty. When we were there the last few times, the place was not exactly packed with customers, but we have it from hearsay, that on some days it is a more active place. The trick is to have a look inside, when visiting the Hollywood Strip, and see how things are going, before deciding to sit down and enjoy the place
Hollywood Rock
Nana Plaza
Lollipop
Nana Plaza
One of the bars of the ‘Crown Group’. For quite a while the bar served as a lady boy venue, after one of the other bars of the group was closed down temporarily. The bar has a long history, and was quite busy until about one year ago, with girls dancing on two stages and mostly naked. It made history in the past by featuring a ‘mermarium’ were girls were swimming in some kind of large aquarium and even performing stimulating acts under water. While the are for this activity has been preserved, it was later used just for regular dancing, after the mermarium was closed down (I understand it was not further allowed by authorities)
Mandarin
Nana Plaza
This bar is at the old location of Paradiso bar, on the second floor, right in front after you exit the escalator. However it is an all together new bar. Obviously the same people who designed Baccara have been at work here. This could be called a ‘designer’ bar, quite different from the classic configuration, where you just have a central dancing stage with seating around it.
When you enter the bar, you first have to climb some stairs to enter the first level. There on the right you will find a square dancing stage, with ample seating around. Some designer, rather peculiar barstools are present. They are rectangular, positioned perpendicular to the stage, and resting on two legs. There is room for two people to sit on them, but most are only occupied by one person, who is obviously protected from other people bumping into him, as is the case in most other bars. Most interesting, the seat has an heart shaped opening in the middle. This will be most welcomed by people with hemorrhoids or some other anal inconvenience and allows for free air flow.
