Viva 8

Located in the heart of Chatuchak Weekend Market, Viva 8 is the ideal place to go to take a break from the heat and the crowds of the market’s packed alleys. Relax in this outdoor bar’s leather chairs while a soft refreshing mist gently cools you down. Thirsty from all the shopping? Have an ice cold beer or share a pitcher of margaritas with your friends. While sipping your drink, watch the never-ending stream of shoppers flow past the bar. Take in the cool tunes presented by one of the in-house DJs who is also Viva 8’s owner. With his unique style and countless tattoos, he’s just as iconic as the place itself. The friendly staff will gladly help you find the next stand you’re looking for at the market or recommend some of their great dishes, such as the freshly made paella. Get a huge plate and share it with your friends while watching the chef put on his signature cooking and dancing show to the beat. Whether you’re looking for a refreshing drink or a yummy snack, this is the perfect place to cool down and recharge your batteries for the next round of shopping and exploring.
