JoyJoy
Sukhumvit Soi 22 / Est. 2026
Open 17:00-24:00 / Closed Tuesday
A Bangkok bar where you get exactly the night you want.
If your goal is to sit in the corner like a brooding main character with an ice-cold beer, completely undisturbed? We respect your solitude. But if you're looking to flex your obscure trivia knowledge, aggressively sing karaoke, or find new people to argue over board game strategies with? We've got the mic, the games, and the table ready.
BYOF (Bring Your Own Friend) is highly encouraged. But if you show up solo? Congratulations, we're your friends for the night.
What does Jib Jib Joy Joy even mean?
จิบ · จิบ · จอย · จอย (Sip · sip · joy · joy)
In Thai, Jib means to sip. Say "Jib Jib Joy Joy" out loud right now. See? It's scientifically proven to make you sound 20% more fun. Some people pronounce it with a squeaky high pitch like "Jeep Jeep Joy Joy," which is also completely fine and fun. But the name actually comes from the popular Thai going-out slang: "Tonight, let's just sip and enjoy."
We are actively avoiding the "fancy Sukhumvit lounge" vibe. No whispering over overpriced drinks, no pretentious dress codes. Just a spot you wander into on a random night, only to walk out at 1 AM singing karaoke with people you met ten minutes ago.
Who is responsible for this?
Hi, I'm Ploy.
I grew up in Bangkok, but spent a huge chunk of my life being the "new kid" in Canada, Ecuador, the US, the Netherlands, and Belgium. I've done the whole awkwardly-standing-in-the-corner routine in more time zones than I can count.
Along the way, I've built a beautifully chaotic resume: I've survived being a waitress, checked people in as a hostel receptionist, worked as a language tutor, and even hustled as a real estate agent. If doing all those wildly different jobs taught me anything, it's how to talk to absolutely anyone, and that a city only feels like home once you meet the right people.
So, I built the bar I always desperately wanted to find. A tiny place down Sukhumvit 22 where you can walk in completely alone, immediately get handed a trivia sheet or a board game, and leave wondering how you just spent three hours laughing your head off with a total stranger.
Honestly, I'm a super extrovert who has been to a lot of bars, and I really just want whoever is reading this to come sip and enjoy at my place. It's so much fun!
