If you love speakeasies, then you must make a special trip to #FindThePhotoBooth when you are in Bangkok. The specialty cocktail lounge is so incredulously hidden that there’s just no way anyone can ever stumble upon it. It takes sheer effort to locate the bar, but upon unlocking the secret (on how to enter), you would finally be accessible to top-notch cocktails created by the industry’s very best mixologists.
Find #FindThePhotoBooth familiar? Well, that’s because the speakeasy establishment is brought to you by the same team behind #FindTheLockerRoom.
Like its sister bar, getting into the bar is difficult. With no help, you might give up. But Uncover Asia is here to spill the beans and summarise the steps on entering #FindThePhotoBooth. So keep on reading and please do not hate us for revealing the steps in full details.
Firstly, use GPS and navigate yourself to Score Bar (situated in Nana). It’s only a four-minute walk from Nana BTS Station. When your online maps tell you that you have arrived, walk up the staircase to the second storey. Walk past the beer pong tables and head to the photo booth, which is located right at the back of the bar. Now, this is where the fun begins. How the hell do you get past the photo booth?!
During our first visit, it took us ages to figure out how to enter #FindThePhotoBooth. Not going to lie that we actually needed some help. Bear in mind that the photo booth is a functional one where you can have two strips of polaroids printed for ฿20. That’s equivalent to approximately S$0.90! What a steal. Have some coins with you, so that you can take some photos for memory keepsake. It’s part of the experience.
Now, how do you actually enter #FindThePhotoBooth? Look for the metallic button located below the screen. Press it and viola, the doors will swing open. Walk through a small empty dark room before finally arriving at your destination. My friends and I genuinely found it fun, but we understand not everyone shares the same sentiment. We heard some people got frustrated when they couldn’t get into the bar right away… So, below is a quick summary for the impatient ones!
