With walls lined in 20th and 21st century images of patriotism and nationalism, Propaganda Bar patrons are treated to the art of agitprop.
Established by Tom Athey, owner of Bangkok-based PR group Spark Communications, Propaganda is a stark reminder of the power of TV, radio, newspapers, and advertising. On the walls, patrons will find conversation-starters like Winston Churchill murals, Donald Trump magazine covers, Che Guevara posters, Soviet-era adverts, and more.
Cocktails are also inspired by propaganda around the world — like The 1984 (gin, Creme De Cassis, Triple Sec, pomegranate juice, lemon juice, syrup, THB275) inspired by the George Orwell novel; or the WWII-inspired Loose Lips Sink Ships (vodka, sour apple liquor, Triple Sec, apple juice, lemon juice, syrup, fresh mint, THB275).
Journalists, writers, publishers are promised a 10% discount at the bar….
