50th
Street
Bar
is
one
of
the
longer
running
establishments
in
the
Yangon
bar
market
and,
as
the
name
implies,
is
located
on
the
lower
part
of
50th
Street.
It
is
a
hybrid
restaurant
/
bar
arrangement
stylised
as
a
sports
bar
where
they
air
the
Premier
League
and
sometimes
tennis.
It
is
a
popular
place
among
expats
and
has
a
casual
vibe
to
it.
50th
Street
bar
is
an
obvious
first
choice
for
meeting
friends
or
bringing
a
date.
The
bar
is
located
in
an
old
colonial
building
and
is
spread
across
two
floors
which
is
connected
by
a
winding
stairs
in
the
middle.
I
feel
perhaps
that
the
bar
could
be
better
served
if
it
extended
seating
to
an
outdoor
terrace
or
the
balcony
(which
is
inaccessible).
The
staff
here
are,
for
the
most
part,
friendly
and
enthusiastic
and
Wi-Fi
is
available
on
request.
The
Wi-Fi
is
pretty
decent.
The
menu
is
diverse
and
offers
anything
from
Pizza
(margarita
recommended)
to
the
famed
50th
Street
Nachos.
The
usual
Yangon
beer
is
on
offer
too
as
well
as
some
cocktails.
On
Thursday
nights
a
table
quiz
is
held
on
the
upper
floor
and
gives
the
bar
a
fun
vibe.
Additionally,
patrons
could
play
darts
or
pool
on
the
ground
floor
of
the
bar.
The
music
is
90s
/
early
00s
style
but
is
re-played.
The
interior
is
nice
and
generally
open
with
more
intimate
settings
for
couples
or
groups
near
the
pillars.
As
a
parting
thought
-
50th
Street
is
one
of
the
more
landmark
bars
in
Yangon
but
loses
its
flare
after
an
hour
or
two.
Due
to
the
dispersed
seating
arrangements
its
not
the
kind
of
place
where
you
will
meet
strangers.
Although
it
is
a
great
place
for
arranging
dates
/
meeting
with
your
friends,
or
otherwise,
just
a
charming
place
with
a
lot
of
character;
to
grab
a
beer,
eat
some
tasty
some
nachos
and
to
listen
to
one
hit
wonders
after
a
long
week.
