Thermae Coffee House
Open Daily 9pm – 2am
Website: http://thermae.nirvanabangkok.com (unofficial site)
Call: none
Address: Sukhumvit 15, Bangkok Thailand (Downstairs from Buamchitt Hotel)
Thermae is an awesome little place downstairs from Sports bar between Sukhumvit Soi 15 and 17. It’s been around since 1965 so that must tell you something! You sit in a booth and order foods and drinks. This place has a lot of girls, I think are working as freelancers and they are all standing outside of the booths just hanging out with their friends. The food is good and relatively cheap and the beers are ice cold and they have my favorite San Mig Light with lime
The Menu: They surprised me by having lots of choices to eat, burgers, steaks, sandwiches, and tons of thai foods also
What I Ate: I’ve had the BLT sandwich, the potato chips are nice along with San Mig lights
The Staff: They can speak enough English to get your drink and food order correctly
The Bathroom: You have to go upstairs and a bit outside to use the bathroom, it’s an open bathroom with ants and bugs all over, girls doing makup, near the kitchen area, and they charge approx 5 baht per usage, the bathrooms actually suck really badly, but you can do what you have to do then wash your hands hehe

Call: 0-2655-5340-2
Address: 6 Sukhumvit Soi 5 Wattana Bangkok 10110
Summary: Wandering down Bangkok Sukhumvit road I wandered into Soi 5 (near Nana BTS Station) and about a 3 minute walk down Soi 5 I ran into Gullivers Bangkok. It is a big place with a LOT of seating outside which gives your eating experience a nice ambience.
The Menu: It has pretty much everything you could wish for!!! Western Breakfasts, soups, salads, English pies, pasta, grilled fishes and steaks, sandwiches, seafoods, thai foods, and MANY more!
What I Ate: I chose the Paneang Moo (pork paneang) and the Ostrich steak, both were very very delicious and I ate every single piece on my plate!!!
The Staff: The staff at Gullivers was normal, about average I would say, and they speak English quite well there, probably a requirement because the vast majority of customers there are farangs.
The Bathroom: They are very nice, BIG, and clean
Conclusion: XXXXXXX
