Armed with an individual drink passport, guests make their way between four venues and collect a stamp at each stop. Built around a journey through Earth, Water, Fire and Air, this Bangkok Hotel Bars news report puts the spotlight on an experience that gives drinkers an opportunity to explore several sides of The Standard in a single evening rather than settling into just one bar.
Four Stops and Four Different Personalities
The Parlor provides a natural starting point. The hotel’s stylish social hub offers cocktails including Rice Harmony, combining gin, sweet fermented rice, mangosteen, jasmine and lemon, as well as Thai Palms Delight and the smoky Fire Fruit.
Next comes Double Standard, where the mood switches to something more relaxed. A Chicken Hot Dog with hot sauce and crispy herbs can accompany drinks such as the House Limoncello Sour, Sake Daiquiri or TSG.

The atmosphere changes again at Mott 32, where Chinese-inspired surroundings provide a sophisticated backdrop. Cocktail choices include Forbidden Rose, blending vanilla-infused pisco, passionfruit, lychee, chilli, lemon and floral notes, and Hong Kong Iced Tea, featuring tequila, Lillet Blanc, blackcurrant and jasmine tea.
Wine and beer selections are also available across the participating venues.
From Cocktails to Bangkok’s Skyline
The crawl saves one of its biggest visual moments for Ojo Terrace on the 76th floor.
Bangkok’s illuminated skyline spreads out below as guests enjoy a final drink alongside a Taquito de Pollo with chicken tinga, fresh cheeses, avocado purée and chipotle. Cocktail options include El Pato, combining mezcal, ginger, yuzu, lime and coconut, as well as Bob, House Negroni and Red.
It is the dramatic shift in surroundings that makes the experience particularly interesting. Guests move from intimate indoor spaces to a soaring outdoor setting, making the architecture and changing views almost as important as the drinks themselves.
A Bangkok Bar Experience Worth Rediscovering
The Bar Crawl at The Standard, Bangkok Mahanakhon Hotel is available daily from 5:30pm to 10pm and is priced at THB 1,380++ per person, including four drinks and snacks. Passports are collected at The Parlor and must be carried throughout the experience. Participants must be aged 20 or above.
For Bangkok residents and visitors searching for something beyond the usual one-bar night out, this crawl deserves attention. Four contrasting venues, creative drinks, accompanying bites and a journey culminating 76 floors above the city combine to create an entertaining way to rediscover Bangkok after dark.
