The Old English Bangkok British Pub & Restaurant
1033 Sukhumvit Rd, Khlong Tan Nuea, Watthana, Bangkok 10110
Managed by an English team, The Old English delivers home-cooked British food: the Churchill breakfast, Sunday roast, fish and chips, and Bread and Butter Pudding, alongside an extensive Thai food section and cold draft beer. Seven TV screens, a pool table, and a weekly live sports schedule covering everything from MotoGP to Six Nations make this Thonglor's most complete neighbourhood pub.
You step out of Thong Lor BTS at exit 3 and The Old English is directly below you, a positioning advantage the venue earned when it relocated from its original site to its current address at 1033 Sukhumvit Road. The pub opened in 2018 and has since built a reputation as the only British pub in the Thonglor neighbourhood. The menu is organised into dedicated sections that reflect a genuine commitment to the format. Breakfast includes the Churchill breakfast, a signature dish the venue claims outright. The main courses cover Sunday Roast (available every day), fish and chips, Pie and Mash, and a Curry Club section. Desserts include a Bread and Butter Pudding at THB 395, a traditional English pudding with buttery bread layers, creamy custard, golden raisins, and a caramelised top, alongside Apple Crumble, Chocolate Cake, and Brownie and Ice Cream. Burgers, pasta, and pizza round out the international sections. The Thai food section is genuine rather than decorative: Pad Krapao at THB 225, Fried Rice from THB 195, Pad Thai at THB 225, Tom Yum, Green Curry, Paneng Curry, Yum Woon Sen Talay, and a range of salads and dry-fried dishes including Larb Moo Tod and Nuea Ded Deaw. This dual-menu approach reflects a pragmatic understanding of who walks through a Bangkok pub door on any given evening. Sports coverage is the other core offering. Seven TV screens are positioned throughout the venue and carry a packed weekly schedule that has included Premier League football, Champions League, F1, MotoGP, UFC, AFL, NRL, Six Nations rugby, tennis, snooker, darts, golf, and ICC cricket. The schedule is published week by week and updated consistently. A pool table anchors the games-room element. The venue is managed by an English team and describes itself as built for warmth, camaraderie, and the kind of evening that starts with a pint and extends through the final whistle. Draft beer includes Lao, Asahi, and Guinness. Table reservations require at least one day in advance; same-day bookings are handled by phone.
