★Local·Little Arabia
Soi Arab
ซอยอาหรับ
Little Arabia off Nana — shisha terraces, tea houses and halal kitchens that hit their stride past midnight.
The Middle Eastern quarter off Nana — shisha terraces, Yemeni mandi and Lebanese bakeries running late into the night. One of Bangkok's most complete food worlds in two lanes.

A night out here
- These streets are at their busiest from about 21:00 onwards.
- Agree a price before anything starts, keep your belongings close, and treat any drink you didn't watch being poured with suspicion.
- Metered taxis and ride apps are the reliable way home late; tuk-tuk quotes at closing time are theatre.
