Soi Nana, a small lane on the fringes of Chinatown (not to be confused with the red light area of Nana on Sukhumvit), is leading the way for cool retro-style hangout bars coming to this older part of the city. While most of the bars here focus on creative cocktails, craft beer is now well represented in the neighborhood with the arrival of Pijiu, named after the Chinese word for beer. Pijiu is brought to you by Beervana, the craft beer distributors who have been a major player in the Thai craft beer craze, and you'll find plenty of U.S. staples like Stone, Deschutes, and Anderson Valley.alongside of some of the best Thai craft favorites. The bar has a retro-jazz look, and makes for a welcome change from the often pretentious beer hangouts over on the Thonglor and Silom sides of town.

- Brew Pubs: "The closest public transport access is the Hualamphong MRT station, although you still will have to walk 10-15 minutes down Charoenkrung Road to get there. A taxi will be the easiest way."
- Best for Brew Pubs Because: For a great selection of American and Thai craft beer in Chinatown, Pijiu rocks!
