Top 3 Best Lesbian Clubs in Bangkok and Pattaya

Thailand is one of the most open countries in Asia when it comes to sexual diversity. While LGBTQ+ communities find some social comfort here, this is also reflected in the nightlife, especially in major cities like Bangkok and Pattaya.

However, specifically lesbian clubs are rarer than gay or mixed bars. They exist, but are often more discreet, sometimes integrated into larger places or appear as weekly events. This does not mean that there is no lesbian scene: it is present, lively and welcoming.

Here’s a roundup of the top 3 lesbian clubs to visit in Bangkok and Pattaya, whether you’re a local, an expat or a traveler passing through.

1. Lesla Night – Bangkok

Location: Alternative, mobile, weekly events
Atmosphere: Festive, inclusive, 100% women

Lesla Night is arguably the most well-known lesbian event in Bangkok. It is not a fixed bar but a concept of parties organized regularly in different trendy places in the city (often rooftop bars or LGBT-friendly clubs).

The event is exclusively reserved for women: lesbians, bisexuals, queers, tomboys, ladys… and their friends. These are electro-pop evenings, sometimes themed, with DJ sets, drag shows or dance competitions.

Lesla Night attracts a local and international clientele, with a very relaxed and respectful atmosphere. Information about the parties is mainly disseminated via Facebook or Instagram, so remember to follow their networks to find out about upcoming dates.

Why we like it:

The event is well organized and secure
Very good mix of locals and foreigners
Warm welcome and all-female staff

2. Zeta Bar – Bangkok (Casual)

Location: Silom, Bangkok
Atmosphere: Chic, eventful

Zeta Bar is a lounge bar at the Hilton Hotel, usually frequented by a chic and mixed clientele. But regularly, he organizes special evenings for lesbian and queer women, often in collaboration with local LGBTQ+ collectives.

These evenings are not weekly but rather monthly or one-off (such as on the occasion of Pride or community events). When they are scheduled, Zeta Bar becomes a rallying point for Bangkok’s urban lesbian community.

The atmosphere is more relaxed than in a classic nightclub: elegant cocktails, lounge or house music, and a lot of social interaction.

Why we like it:

The place is beautiful (rooftop with a view of the city)
Quality music selection
Ideal place to meet people in peace

3. Toys Bar – Pattaya

Location: Soi Buakhao, Pattaya
Atmosphere: Local, friendly, queer-friendly

In Pattaya, the LGBTQ+ scene is largely dominated by gay bars, but a few venues are geared towards a more female audience. Toys Bar is one of the only lesbian bars operating in the city.

It is a simple and warm bar, run by a team of women, with an informal atmosphere. Here, there is no dress code or pretension: people come to chat, have a drink, listen to Thai or international music, and sometimes sing karaoke.

Toys Bar attracts mostly a local clientele (tomboys, Thai women, a few expats), but lesbian female travelers are welcome without any problem.

Why we like it:

Relaxed, non-judgmental atmosphere
Bar run by women, for women
Starting point to discover other LGBT-friendly places in Pattaya

Other options to consider

In addition to these three places, you can also discover alternative spaces:

Private events and temporary parties (via Facebook or Line groups)
LGBTQ+ Mixed Bars with Special “Ladies Only” Night
General nightclubs like DJ Station (Bangkok) or Mixx Club (Pattaya), where the queer community is very present

There are also LGBTQ+ cafes and dayspots where lesbian or queer women like to meet, such as:

Too Fast To Sleep (Bangkok)
The Commons (Thonglor, Bangkok)
Hemingway’s Garden Bar (Bangkok)

Tips

Lesbian parties are not always visible: use social networks to keep yourself informed (Facebook, Line, Meetup)
The word “lesbian” is not always used: also search for “tomboy night”, “girls only”, or “Sapphic night”
Even in a lesbian place, respect is fundamental : be open-minded, polite, and attentive to local codes

Is it safe to go to these clubs alone?

Yes. Thailand is generally a safe country, and LGBTQ+ establishments are well supervised. If you go out alone:

Always let someone know about your itinerary
Keep your phone charged
Take a Grab or taxi home
Avoid drinking too much if you don’t know anyone there

Conclusion

Even though the lesbian scene in Thailand isn’t always very visible, it’s definitely there, and it’s worth exploring.
Whether you’re visiting Bangkok or stopping off in Pattaya, you’ll find welcoming, open and safe places to have a good night out, socialize and have fun freely.

Lesla Night, Zeta Bar and Toys Bar are the three most reliable and active references, but the scene is changing fast, so stay connected to local LGBTQ+ networks.
