The Stunning New Social Club The Consul Set for December Opening in Bangkok

The chic new Sukhumvit social hub and private member’s club features a social club by Team Wang Design and creative power Jackson Wang as well as signature bar Won by the same team as Seoul’s Alice – one of Asia’s 50 Best Bars

Hong Kong, November 6, 2025 – A vibrant new chapter in Bangkok’s cultural and social landscape is set to unfold next month with the opening of The Consul, an exclusive lifestyle destination and members’ club that promises to redefine the art of connection and exchange.

Occupying the entire top two floors of the stunning new JLK Tower in the lively Sukhumvit district, this highly anticipated new destination is poised to become a modern gateway for culture, conversation, and creativity in Asia – with ambitious plans to expand to other cities in the region and beyond.

Inspired by Bangkok’s long history as a crossroads of trade and ideas, The Consul is a place where cultures meet and meaningful conversations spark. Rejecting the trappings of status and exclusivity, the club is instead built on the idea of depth – of experience, of engagement, and of the connections its members cultivate. Every detail, from its striking design to its standout bars and restaurants and cutting-edge design has been thoughtfully crafted to create lasting impressions.

At the heart of The Consul is a collection of exceptional social spaces with stunning city views designed to delight and inspire, headlined by a bar from the team behind Alice, one of Seoul’s most celebrated cocktail destinations and a fixture on the Asia’s 50 Best Bars list – and a stylish contemporary Chinese restaurant presenting a modern interpretation of Sichuan and Cantonese cuisine led by Chef Benson Feng.

Embodying The Consul’s philosophy of unity and creative exchange, Bar Won has a crowing position overlooking the main dining room and reached by ascending a grand staircase to the upper floor. It takes its name from a word that carries layered meaning across cultures – from “one” and “origin” to the circle that symbolizes harmony, connection, and flow. Reflecting these ideas, its 12 seasonally rotating signature cocktails reinterpret global art through Thai ingredients, while the 25 refined classics showcase balance, precision, and craft.

The magnificently expansive main dining room is designed to be elegant and atmospheric, transforming progressively throughout the evening into a vibrant supper club experience, where nightly live performers and entertainers engage with guests and bring energy to every corner of the venue.

For those seeking privacy and intimacy, the restaurant also features exclusive private dining rooms reserved for members and special occasions, each offering personalised service and special menus tailored to guests’ preferences.

In a world first, The Consul will also be home to Yang Club – a new concept from Team Wang Design, with creative direction from Hong Kong-born global star Jackson Wang. Yang Club embodies their unique vision of music, lifestyle and culture, and is offered exclusively to members of The Consul.

The restaurant and Bar Won will be open to everyone, but Yang Club, the private rooms, cigar lounges and a stylish investors’ lounge will be for members only.

Anticipation for The Consul is already high, with early-bird memberships sold out. Limited memberships will be made available when the club officially opens, offering a rare opportunity to enjoy privileged access to this groundbreaking cultural hub.

More details will be unveiled as the opening date approaches, but one thing is certain: The Consul will be much more than a social club – it will become the new epicentre of creativity, culture, and connection in Bangkok.
