Why go, and how to do it well
This intimate wine bar brings a touch of French-influenced character to Chiang Rai's nightlife, drawing a loyal local crowd alongside curious travelers. Situated on Thanon Sankhongnoi, it operates as a cafe during the week before transforming into a lively wine bar and live music venue on Friday and Saturday evenings. The combination of a relaxed, cozy atmosphere and a genuine local following sets it apart from the more tourist-oriented bars in the city.
Guests can expect a curated wine selection served by the glass (around 360 baht) or bottle (around 2,000 baht), alongside a small cheese selection to complement the drinks. Live music typically kicks off around 9 PM on Saturdays, when the venue fills up and takes on a noticeably more social energy. Seating includes coveted couch areas that regulars sometimes reserve in advance, giving the space a welcoming, neighborhood-bar feel rather than a formal wine lounge.

Reviews from Google
A cafe during the week and an amazing wine bar and music venue on Saturday nights. People show up near 9, when the band starts, and some even make reservations for the couch areas. Good house wine, dim lit and candles on the inside and outside a patio surrounded by foliage (bug spray provided). A portion of the patio is for smoking. The menu is mostly wine, a few beer and cocktails options and one dessert that changes. They also serve several cheese platters. Very professional. Wish they had speakers in the patio so my husband could have a cigar and listen to the music. Another reviewer said it was crowded, but we were the only people until about 9 PM (late January).
Upscale place with a nice atmosphere and live band playing. Nice selection of wine (~2000B for a bottle, 360B for a glass). You can bring your own bottle but it will be 900B for the corkage. Italiano aperitivo food style available (cheese, ham etc.)
A small wine bar in town, open only on Fridays and Saturdays — with beautiful live music 🍷💃🫶🏼

Tips for Visiting Nightlife & Bars
Know the Closing Times
Legal closing time is 2 AM for most venues, though enforcement varies. In Bangkok's designated entertainment zones (RCA, Silom Soi 2/4, Khao San), some clubs stay open until 4 AM. Islands tend to be more relaxed about hours.
Buy Bucket Drinks Cautiously
Island bucket drinks (mixed spirits in a small bucket) are cheap and fun but notoriously strong and inconsistent. Stick to one, stay hydrated, and never leave your drink unattended at beach parties.
Arrange Your Ride Home
Use Grab (ride-hailing app) to get home safely — taxis outside nightlife areas late at night often refuse meters. Set up the app before going out, and keep your phone charged.
