There’s an old-school nightlife feel to Radio City that starts with the music and carries through the whole room.

Inside, the dancers take the elevated stage while the rest of the room feels surprisingly easy to settle into. Dark lighting, comfortable seating and even a red-felt pool table give it more of a late-night lounge character than the name might first suggest. Head upstairs and things soften further, with sofas and dimmer corners away from the main floor.

The music is a big part of the appeal, but so is the lack of hurry. Radio City has built a reputation as somewhere you can actually sit back, enjoy the girls and let a drink last without feeling like the room is constantly pushing you toward the next one. In Patpong, Radio City keeps the dial tuned somewhere between go-go and good old-fashioned night out.
