Ladprao 122 is a place to explore live music and table-based nightlife in Bangkok. In a group outing described by Reddit contributor u/pudgimelon, the evening moved from an early, relatively quiet stop at Bangearn Bar to a crowded late set at Wake Up, with Tasty Bar and Hong Samudd in between. The account describes a local scene near student housing along the road connecting Ladprao and Ramkhamhaeng. [1]
This guide draws on that single outing. Venue impressions, bills and times below are the author's observations; the review does not establish an exact visit date. Map identities were checked on 30 September 2026. Confirm the current programme, table terms and closing time before travelling.
Places in the review
The four pins below are the ones supplied by the author. They resolve to listings in the Ladprao 122 and Soi Mahadthai area. Use the pins to distinguish these venues from similarly named businesses elsewhere. [2][3][4][5]
Bangearn Bar
The author described a high-ceilinged room with live music, food and a pool table. It was quiet during the group's early visit, and the author found the staff attentive without pressure to order. [1]
Check the band's time and table availability before going. An early visit does not establish how busy the room will be later.
Tasty Bar
The author found Tasty smaller and more polished than the other stops. Their reserved tables were available around 10 PM; more tables were being added by the time they left. [1]
Confirm the reservation deadline and space for the whole group. The map identifies this venue at 245/8, Soi Ladprao 122. [3]
Hong Samudd
The author described a quieter front area with a pond and live music, followed by a much louder, crowded club at the back. The author described bands and DJs there. [1]
Ask which area the reservation covers. The supplied pin is labeled ห้องสมุด มหาดไทย. [4]
Wake Up
The group ended the night at this busy live-music venue, with a table near the band. The remaining six or seven guests heard a second band start around 3 AM, and this was the author's favourite stop. [1]
Check the current event and table minimum before booking. The pin now reads "มหาดไทย: Wake Up' Live Music & Bangkok EDM DJ"; use the pin when confirming the venue. [5]
Planning the evening
A practical way to use the review is to choose one main venue and keep a nearby alternative. Following all four stops requires coordinating table reservations and settling several bills. The author skipped Local Bar to avoid losing a later reservation at Hong Samudd. [1]
For conversation, the early Bangearn stop and Hong Samudd's front area were the quieter parts of this particular outing. For a late live-band set, the author preferred Wake Up. These are impressions from different times of the night, so they are not a like-for-like ranking. Ask which room and performance your booking covers. [1]
Fin, Say Yes and Mahadthai also appear in the thread, but the author did not provide comparable first-hand reviews of their interiors that night. Part of the group entered Say Yes; the author and later arrivals were refused entry. The reason was not independently established, and the account does not establish a general admission policy. The separate mention of Mahadthai should not be used to infer a second current venue from Wake Up's map name. [1][5]
What the group reported spending
All amounts below are Thai baht (THB). They are approximate figures from the review, not verified current prices. The group changed size during the evening, and the post does not provide itemised receipts or a complete breakdown of taxes and service charges. [1]
| Stop | Reported amount |
|---|---|
| Bangearn Bar | A few thousand baht [1] |
| Tasty Bar | About THB 2,000 [1] |
| Hong Samudd | About THB 4,000 [1] |
| Wake Up | About THB 1,500 required to obtain the table [1] |
At Bangearn Bar, about 15 people shared roughly a dozen beers, one bottle of whisky, mixers and food. No exact total was given. Tasty Bar's bill covered a round of beers and food for a group that had grown to almost 20. It was one stop's order, not an all-night allowance. [1]
At Hong Samudd, the group ordered two bottles of whisky, some beer and mixers. The author separately recalled a THB 2,300 Black Label promotion excluding mixers and a cheaper whisky option around THB 800 including mixers. Bottle sizes were not specified. [1]
Six or seven people remained at Wake Up. They ordered food and shots as well as beer to reach the required spend. The account does not establish a separate table rental fee or a current minimum. [1]
Ask for a dated menu or written quotation. Confirm whether a quoted amount is per table or per person, whether mixers count, and whether there is a separate admission charge. The companion Bangkok local club booking guide explains how to compare those terms.
Getting there and home
The group met near Terminal 21 in Asoke and used privately arranged vans. The author estimated a roughly 25-minute outbound journey in rain, but that is one trip, not a reliable travel-time estimate. Save the exact destination pin and allow for traffic when agreeing an arrival deadline. [1]
The Yellow Line serves Mahat Thai station (YL06). Check the operator's current timetable for your direction and any connecting train, then plan the remaining journey to your venue using its pin. The published timetable has a gap in overnight service; do not assume a train will be available after a late club finish. Arrange a taxi or another suitable ride home if needed. [7]
The author reported that several places seemed to continue until around 5 AM on weekends, while others ended earlier. Those observations do not confirm today's opening hours or a venue's licensed hours. Get the closing time and last-entry time directly from the venue for your chosen night. [1]
Sound and comfort
Hong Samudd's rear room was loud enough that some of the group left. Bring earplugs and use them properly, stay away from loudspeakers, and take breaks in quieter areas. These precautions follow the World Health Organization's listening guidance; the thread contains no sound-level measurements for any venue. [1][6]
If conversation matters more than standing close to the stage, request a table away from the speakers. Keep the booking confirmation and destination pin on your phone, and agree a meeting point in case the group splits up.
