Redevelopment ended that site in 2003; the owners relocated to Soi 11 and formally renamed the concept. A second location followed in 2018 inside the Trendy Building on Soi 13, carrying the founding traditions forward intact.\\n\\nEvery Friday evening a whole pig goes onto a hand-turned spit at the entrance. That ritual has run across all three locations and is the single most cited reason regulars return week after week.\\n\\nThe beer list is built around imported German draught. Paulaner and Krombacher are imported from Germany; Singha, Chang and Heineken cover the local tier. Happy hour runs 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM daily at both the Soi 11 and Soi 13 addresses. The 4:00 PM start puts the daily discount squarely in the post-work window for the Sukhumvit corridor without requiring any crowd inference. The kitchen operates from 8:00 AM through 1:15 AM last order, with the venue itself staying open until 2:00 AM.\\n\\nSports coverage is operationally specific. English Premier League, Bundesliga with German-language commentary, and Formula 1 all run on commercial-grade screens. The German commentary detail matters: it is not a decorative touch, it draws German-speaking regulars who cannot get that broadcast experience elsewhere in the neighbourhood.\\n\\nPractical note: the Trendy Building entrance on Soi 13 is set back from the main soi and easy to miss on a first visit. Allow extra navigation time on weekend evenings when the soi is congested. Outdoor terrace seating is available; Bangkok's humidity from April through June makes the air-conditioned interior the default for most of the year.","our_take":"Four decades of operation in Bangkok's F&B market is not an accident. The Bundesliga with German-language commentary is the detail that separates this from generic sports bars. It pulls a specific crowd that no amount of generic Premier League coverage replicates. The Friday spit-roast is the kind of fixed ritual that earns regulars, and 8 AM open gives it genuine range most bars cannot match.","custom_description":null,"hook":"One of Bangkok's longest-running German beerhouses, the OGB on Soi 13 carries a 1986 founding tradition into its second location: Paulaner on tap, a whole pig on a hand-turned spit every Friday, Bundesliga with German commentary, and doors open from 8 AM to 2 AM seven days a week.","meta_title":null,"meta_description":null,"og_title":null,"og_description":null,"og_image":null,"twitter_card":"summary_large_image","canonical_url":null,"is_featured":false,"is_verified":true,"amenities":["Bar on site","Toilet","Wi-Fi","Service options: Outdoor seating","Service options: No-contact delivery","Service options: Delivery","Service options: Takeaway","Service options: Dine-in","Offerings: Alcohol","Offerings: Beer","Offerings: Cocktails","Offerings: Coffee","Offerings: Happy-hour drinks","Offerings: Late-night food","Offerings: Quick bite","Offerings: Small plates","Offerings: Spirits","Offerings: Wine","Dining options: Breakfast","Dining options: Brunch","Dining options: Lunch","Dining options: Dinner","Dining options: Catering","Dining options: Dessert","Dining options: Seating","Dining options: Table service","Highlights: Great beer selection","Highlights: Great cocktails","Highlights: Great dessert","Highlights: Sport","Crowd: Groups","Crowd: Tourists","Parking: Free parking lot","Parking: Paid parking lot","Parking: Parking"],"property_specs":null,"features":{"Crowd":{"Groups":true,"Tourists":true},"Parking":{"Parking":true,"Free parking lot":true,"Paid parking lot":true},"Children":{"High chairs":true},"Payments":{"Debit cards":true,"Credit cards":true,"NFC mobile payments":true},"Planning":{"Accepts reservations":true},"Amenities":{"Wi-Fi":true,"Toilet":true,"Bar on site":true},"Offerings":{"Beer":true,"Wine":true,"Coffee":true,"Alcohol":true,"Spirits":true,"Cocktails":true,"Quick bite":true,"Small plates":true,"Late-night food":true,"Happy-hour drinks":true},"Atmosphere":{"Cosy":true,"Casual":true},"Highlights":{"Sport":true,"Great dessert":true,"Great cocktails":true,"Great beer selection":true},"Popular for":{"Lunch":true,"Dinner":true,"Breakfast":true,"Solo dining":true},"Accessibility":{"Wheelchair-accessible seating":true,"Wheelchair-accessible car park":false,"Wheelchair-accessible entrance":true},"Dining options":{"Lunch":true,"Brunch":true,"Dinner":true,"Dessert":true,"Seating":true,"Catering":true,"Breakfast":true,"Table service":true},"Service options":{"Dine-in":true,"Delivery":true,"Takeaway":true,"Outdoor seating":true,"No-contact delivery":true}},"attributes":{},"faq_items":[],"ai_generated_image":false,"street_view_image":null,"owner_uploaded_image":null,"has_real_photo":false,"image_source":"removed_pending_placeholder","image_generated_at":null,"menu_link":null,"line_id":null,"google_maps_url":"https://www.google.com/maps/place/Old+German+Beerhouse+on+13/@13.7410698,100.5577208,14z/data=!4m8!1m2!2m1!1sOld+German+Beerhouse+on+13!3m4!1s0x30e29fb3c0ff0563:0xadf225861481b8dc!8m2!3d13.7410698!4d100.5577208","subscription_tier":"free","description_generated_at":"2026-06-19T00:21:12.356Z","content_status":"approved","focus_keyword":null,"wifi_available":true,"created_at":"2026-02-20T13:24:07.992Z","owner_verified_at":null}
