  Review from Malcolm, January 2013: Hostess bar without hostesses

Came across another bar on Soi Xzyte. About 200 yards up from the Triangle Bar on the Left.

Its called the A-Team Club. The sign says private discrete hostess bar.

It opens at 12 noon. Went in around 2pm. 1 guy behind bar served me a there was a girl there sorting the empty bottles. I was the only one in the place. Drunk up and left.

I went back about 7-30pm. This time there were 3 girls sat outside. 1 of them came in with me and got my drink for me and then she went back outside leaving me and 3 other customers sat alone with the same guy behind the bar.

I don't know if or when the hostesses start. There were a couple of tables on the far side that could be curtained off. Drunk up again and left. Maybe something happens later in the evening but why open at 12 noon?

All local beers 55B.

  Review from Malcolm, January 2013: Johnny Depp

Last time I was hear the Armageddon Bar was having a refit. That's all finished now, the wall has gone. The bar itself has been extended back and all new furniture inside. Good new toilets. Johnny Depp is back. I got close up to him and he must be over 8 feet tall.

Singha 55B happy hour and 70B in the evening.

  News from Malcolm May 2012: Facelift

The Armageddon Bar on Soi LK Metro is having a facelift.

It's still trading using the front part of the bar but the back is closed off and having new toilets fitted and then the wall between comes down.

Should be finished in about another week.

There are still plenty of scrap metal sculptures around the place but they have moved Jonny Depp out of the way of the dust and he will be back when the building work is finished.

They got rid of the croc because it grew too big.

  Review from Malcolm January 2010: Croc's Off

No crocodile there now. Big tank at back was full of fish.

'Lots of scrap metal sculptures for sale, all very good, including Jonny Depp as Captain Sparrow. Beautiful, but at over 6 feet tall and £3,500 wouldn't quite fit in my hand luggage.

  Review from Pattaya Today: Night March, Mar 2009: Croc

Armageddon has a dart board and pool table out the back, a giant TV screen, assorted tables and chairs and bar stools, and a number of quite attractive and reasonably friendly girls. Just like 500 other joints in Fun Town I hear you say. Correct. But then there is Marty, the theme attraction. Marty is a medium-length freshwater crocodile thankfully confined to a tank.

Drinks in Armageddon are reasonably priced and this is one beer boozer that can at least lay claim to something a little different.

  Review from pattayagogoguide.com June 2009: On the Up

The popular mamasang Sandy aka Nong (aka little lady with loud voice) has started back at Buffalo Bar, so the standard of girls will be going up again. She has been away for 7 months and it shows in the bar.

They even have a proper plastic Thai recruitment banner outside. Even the famous Chicken (Gai) is back, but sadly only as an early shift cashier.

They have recently renovated the ST rooms, with new beds, aircon and hot water.

[Later reports that the bar now has about 50 girls many of them lookers]

  Review from Pattaya Talk Dec 2008: Barely Worth a Visit

I have always liked the Buffalo Bar...but it is now only barely worth a visit.

But still a good drink value only 75 baht for drinks during peak hours.

There seem to be three types of ladies at the Buffalo Bar now, over-the-hill, brats, and nasty-looking.

Many ladies seem too old to be working there, over 40 years, and it is kind of annoying having to waive so many of them off.

The 21ish go-go dancers seem to have a Las Vegas style arrogance.

I also saw 4 or 5, heavily tattooed ladies that looked nasty.

In all, not the nice ladies that used to be there.

  New Dec 2008: Refit

The notable Buffalo Bar on 3rd Road is nearing the end of phased improvements and is now refitting its short time rooms. Previously they had been condemned by customers if not Pattaya council hotel inspectors.

  News from Pattaya Secrets Nov 2008: Renovation

In the past weeks, they have put up full height mirrors on the remaining walls, hung international flags over the bar, wooden pailing (fence) on the outside hedge walls onto Soi Vinai and tonight put up a Gogo type spinning light ball on the ceiling.

During the "Closure" period they were working hard in the bar to finish off the upgrades. In the bar they have repaired seats and replaced the seat cushions, changed the Podiums again with colourful lighted bases.

Next they will upgrade the upstairs slum rooms.

130B for lady drink and 50B for Singha

  Review by Xitroen, July 2010: A Friendly Warning

But some three weeks ago the sign changed and it became Le Carré Blanc, The White Square in English. I knew nothing about this bar at the time, but later I spotted it in a free French newspaper. I learned from an advertisement that it is a French bar and a private club. And in Pattaya, private club means unbridled sex... And that is what you seek, is it not, my fellow perverts?

For English speakers who do not know France, the white square is a French institution that no longer exists but remains in the collective memory of many men approaching their fifties. The white square was introduced on French television in March 1961, shortly after the airing of the film The Execution, by Maurice Cazeneuve. The film featured a few seconds of a female nude. Shame! And to see a nipple under De Gaulle was taboo! No joke!...

Which means that, today, only the French understand the meaning of the name of this club ... The name is not entirely original though as some bars and discos also use the name in France.

So last night I went there at 23h. On entering all the girls turned to me and purred hello and welcome, almost like a choir singing... hardly discreet... But I loved it!

Maybe a little curious though as it is not often that Pattaya customers are so well received and with such warmth! The place is relatively small, with a cozy atmosphere. On entering, you see the bar, it is square (but not white!). Towards the back left are large comfortable black sofas with small glass tables and screens to hide a little of what's happening there in the name of discretion.

In front of the bar are some small round tables. Everything is simple and clean. The atmosphere is provided by dimmed lights which are very relaxing on the eyes. Good music (sometimes French) and not too loud to talk without having to scream, unlike some other places ...

The principle of the Le Carré Blanc is simple: you can do anything you want with whom you want, where you want and however you want.

Before I left I visited the rooms that are well kept and clean, nothing more to say there.

I paid  300 baht for the Barfine, 500 to the girl and for the drinks, everything is very reasonable and honest. Here they do not fuck the customer, just the opposite ...

  News from HJ, June 2010: Fun in the Club

According to the sign and a notice on the bar door said that it was open from 1pm to midnight but the door was locked and curtained. There was also a notice on the door to say it was a private club.

At another nearby Bar I was informed that it had changed hands and that the new managers were French and had been running the Telephone Bar.

Many people were complaining about the beer prices and the lady drinks at 150bt each but that none of the ladies wore underwear and they would strip off for fun in the Bar if the customer paid the 300bt Bar fine.

It would appear that most of the customers are French and the ladies older ones from the Telephone Bar.

The Castle

3rd Road (half way between Pattaya Klang & Pattaya Tai near the Buffalo Bar)

From 5:30pm

www.the-castle-pattaya.com

  Notes from Pattaya-Live, September 2012: Fun in Black

The prices add up to 4500 Baht for an hour of fun. Customers have the choice of a fuck session with a slave girl or else an hour with an unfuckable mistress who offers various levels of torment. There is a dress code requirement to wear black. Reviews are generally very good from those who have partaken.

  Review from Pattaya Secrets, April 2011: Terrorific

If you enter the club you have to buy one drink, of your choice, priced at 950 baht. The casual bar hopper will be shocked at this, cry rip off and leave. That is what they want.

When you first come inside you will be directed to the small bar that is in the main entryway. You will order your drinks and the ladies will come out. They do not have a lineup, instead they have a little show.

After the show the ladies will come over to you. If you want them to show you around the club one of them will although there is an expectation that you will buy a lady drink. Lady Drinks are not cheap-250 baht.

The main bar area has a bondage chair and a caged off area, in the back, is a full bedroom with bed, wall mounted bondage X and a full bathroom. There is a small circular room with no door and just a small area to sit with chains. There's also a large bondage room with a variety of equipment: a Gynecologic exam table, a police lock up box replica, stocks , a mini schoolroom with desk and blackboard, a bondage X and T and a variety of specialty bondage furniture. The club also has all kinds of toys, ropes and whips.

Short times and barfines are available at higher than normal prices reflecting perhaps the specialist practitioners.

The Castle is a terrific Fetish Club.

  Review from Pattaya Polecat, March 2007: Hit Me Baby One More Time

If, like the Polecat, you’ve been putting off going to The Castle because of the high prices, or because you’re scared of getting a damn good thrashing, think again. The Polecat’s just lost his Castle cherry, and is now manically putting aside all his little silver bahts for the next visit.

Read the full review on Thailand Nightlife Roundup

  Review 2006: First Fetish

Fun Town's first fetish establishment, called The Castle, opened its rather imposing heavy door for business in late December 2003. It specifically caters for those whose tastes in fashion run to whips, chains, PVC, latex, and leather.

The place was opened by the same French management who operate a similarly-named fetish joint in Bangkok. The gear, which also includes nurse and schoolgirl uniforms is being supplied by Pattaya's premier fashion house Boutique Sexy (their showroom is in Naklua Soi 33).

In order to get punters in the right sado-masochistic mood, the first drink in the place will set you back 900 baht. All drinks after that are just a trifling 200 baht. The management stress this is not a drinking bar; it is a place for like-minded people to come and indulge in their favourite fantasy. To really keep the screws turning, there is definitely no copulation on the premises, no matter how excited you might get over the sight of a couple of latex-clad damsels beating each other with an overripe cucumber. If you want to engage in something un-natural like sexual intercourse then fork out the 1,500 baht bar fine and take your leather feather duster and your lady back to your place.

The Castle has a dress code of which the colour black is one of the necessary component parts. It opens at 5:30PM and closes at 2:00AM and at present has a staff of around 14 dominatrixes/submissives who have been trained by an Englishman. A lady drink is a suitably humiliating 250 baht, but the bar has a strict policy dissuading damsels from asking for a libation. The choice is completely up to the customer.

  News March 2013: 30 Day Closure

As a result of a police raid a few days ago, the bar is now closed with a notice announcing a 30 day closure from about 20th March.

  Review November 2010: Iron Magnet

Coyotes, of course, are the stock in trade at Club Blu, but, sadly, the quality of that stock continues to decline. Once a magnet for some of Pattaya's hottest girls, Blu's change in ownership and a revamped dancer salary system sparked an exodus of talent management still hasn't reversed. Instead of paying salaries, the bar switched to a system where it only pays dancers a cut on drinks and barfines.

As a result, many of the girls departed for the likes of Iron Club on Walking Street. While they have to bare all, the Insomnia disco-like atmosphere and music, not to mention its huge fat salaries and huge base of potential barfines, make it the biggest draw around for Pattaya's top talent.

Perhaps that's why on what was an obviously big night for neighboring go-gos, Club Blu was less than half full with just 7 dancers working the rotation.

  Review March 2009: The Lonely Man Blu's

I have walked past many times and it is half tempting to have a look just because the bar is so well presented. It is also half tempting to have a look because there are always a few attractive girls milling round the entrance.

The coyote dancers are split in two teams, one teams dances whilst the other has a break.

The other attraction is that for a 'stylish' bar, the drinks prices are very reasonable.

When it comes to entertainment, you really have to bring your own. There were several clusters of people enjoying a chat amongst themselves but there is not much entertainment on offer for the single visitors.

The girls dance no more energetically than a decent gogo and of course are well overdressed to boot.

The girls didn't seem at all interested in any hostessing or chatting to customers (save for a Japanese guy who popped in).

It seems pretty much the same for all coyote bars. They attract the girls who don't really want to do the naughty stuff like in the gogos. The coyote bars generally pay well for the dancing talent and so the girls are therefore happy enough without needing to put out for tips and the like.

  Review from Pattaya Secrets, Dec 2008: No Go

The bar seems to be getting a reputation for dancing girls that don't barfine. If that is your intention, perhaps best to ask before investing in lady drinks. Plenty still do go though.

  Review from Materialsman, Nov 2008: A Warm Sort of Blue

I know this bar has been open for quite a few months now and has been well received by the public, so well received in fact that allegedly the original owners sold out recently for an astronomical figure of baht, but this was my first opportunity to visit the bar. First impressions? Very impressive actually, the d้cor works very well, the blue light in principle would appear quite harsh, but in fact it’s a warm sort of blue light that really enhances the place. I think that if I was a wealthy in the Hugh Heffner style, I would definitely have one of the rooms in my mansion modeled after this club, and constantly stocked with pretty girls! I wasn’t too sure about the spiral steel staircase by the door mind, seemed a little rickety for my liking, I suppose that the ‘resting rooms’ are up there, as opposed to the ‘rest rooms’ which are downstairs on floor level, but I wouldn’t fancy traversing those stairs if I was a little bit worse for wear, or physically drained after ‘resting’.

As for the quality of the women, well of course that is always a purely personal viewpoint, one man’s stunner is another mans woofer, there were around 25 ‘ladeez’ present, and I would say that there were a few 9’s amongst them, mostly 7’s or 8’s though, I heard that when it first opened the line up was far more impressive, but as in any similar business in Pattaya, it’s hard to keep your best girls for any long period due to sponsorship, marriage, better offers from other bars etc.

Miss ‘M’ was quite a package mind you; I enjoyed her little turn on the podium just inches away from me. I equally enjoyed my time in the bar immensely, the drinks were very reasonable at 70 baht a bottle, the atmosphere was friendly, the clientele were well turned out and smart, and the Tequila Shot girl was to die for, those black 4” stiletto heeled boots coupled with the Stetson hat and skimpy denim shorts, think Daisy Duke and you would be close, was my abiding memory of the place, and she well deserved my first and only 100 baht tip of the night, I shall be back! If I had to make a comparison to the Honey Pot which I thoroughly enjoyed last week, I would say that if you combined the two places, with the d้cor of Club Blu and the current line up of the Honey Pot, you would have a license to print money, which in actual fact was pretty much what Club Blu was earlier this year.

  News July 2008: Expensive Bar Fines

The bar fines for dancers have been raised to 650 Baht. 400 for hostesses.

  Lady Drink Blog, April 2008: Looking In

I strolled past Club BLU and the lighting is very effective. One's eyes are drawn towards the coyote dancers and the near perfect view of the rest of the bar.

It must be the most un-private bar in all of Pattaya. Sure there are lots of open bars, but this one positively grabs the attention and simple makes one peer inside.

There are advantages and disadvantages to an open bar. If the bar is popular and has plenty of pretty girls then surely the owners want to show it off.

As it was with Club Blu I walked on by, there were plenty of pretty girls dancing but most of the customers were sitting on their lonesome. It made for a cold looking atmosphere. Now if there had been a private area I my have come to the conclusion (right or wrong) that that is where the action is and popped in to see for myself.

  Review from Pattaya Chat, Feb 2007: Value

I know it is not the classiest joint you can find, and his TV adverts probably put off as many people as they attract, but it was actually rather good and incredible value. He does an English breakfast at 60baht and one he charmingly calls the 'Fat Bastard' at 100baht. I had the Fat Bastard and it was very good. It came with tea and toast and butter and had everything: bacon, 2 sausages, 2 eggs, black pudding, fried bread, mushrooms, beans etc the lot. Incredible value at 100 baht. And quick service as well.

Looking at his prices Crazy Dave's must be one of the best value places in Pattaya. Certainly, worth a trip up the soi if you fancy farang food in the middle of the night.

Oh yes, 'Only Fools and Horses' was on the big screen TV whilst I was there.

  March 2006: Cheap Chang

There's an expensive draft beer at 89 Baht. And surprise, surprise this is not mentioned on the welcome boards. Bottled beers are 90-110 Baht and soft drinks are 75 Baht. There is a Happy Hour when about 20 Baht is knocked off the bottled beer price.

A cheap beer option has been added with bottled Leo beer sold at 60 Baht and advertised as draft beer.

  Review June 2012: Bikinis and More

I stopped by at prime time on a weekday evening.

The first thing I noticed was the rather confusing drinks price set up on the welcome boards. The bar seems to lack the simplicity of a cheap draft beer price. Not that the bottled beer prices are overly pricey. But somehow if that cheap beer welcome board is missing then it signals that drinks prices are going to be high. There is a happy hour where beer prices were reduced and house spirits are 2 for 1.

Inside there were 4 girls dancing at time wearing bikinis. But that is not quite the full picture, they were wearing bikinis over the top of solid bras. It looked ridiculous. Presumably there was some sort of compromise where the bar wanted bikinis and the girls didn't.

However one improvement over my last visit was that the girls were being very pro-active in seeking out a bit of company and no doubt, some lady drinks. It made the bar feel quite GoGo like and quite lively.

Now if only they could persuade the dancers to dispense with their bras.

  Comments by Durian Doug, March 2012: Loud

I visited on Mar 20 at 1am.

There were 4 girls on stage at a time, in bikinis.

Music is painfully loud, I only managed half a beer before leaving.

According to the mamsan, the reason for the loud music is to attract younger dancers.

The Devil's Den

Soi LK Metro

From 1pm until midnight
Closed Sundays

devilsdenthailand.com

Hells Club reopened as The Devil's Den on Friday 15th May 2009.

  News from Devils Den, October 2011: Day of Rest

In keeping with the Devil's Den commitment to both customers and staff, we have decided to change our hours of business. Effective from the 1st of November 2011, we will be closed on Sundays. Our Monday through Saturday hours of operations will continue to be from 1:00 pm until 12:00 Midnight.

  Review from Pattaya Secrets, April 2011: ALL In

The Devil's Den also runs on a one price model. You pay one price and that covers everything. There are no barfines, lady drinks or other costs that so commonly add up on a visit to any other place in town. There are no hidden charges or surprises. Tipping is also absolutely NOT required or expected. (The ladies will take them, though.) The Devil's Den always requires that you have two ladies-that is included in the one price. And the Devil's Den give you 90 minutes.

After getting the rundown, the ladies will come in for a lineup. The ladies come out and line up for your review. You will notice that some of the ladies are to the left and some to the right of a yellow line. The ladies on one side do anal and the ladies on the other side do not. The ladies also do a variety of other things. (like golden showers, ect.)

After selecting the ladies you will go upstairs to a room. The rooms are nice. They all have televisions with vcr's that can play porn of your selection. Some of the rooms have swings for use some do not. You will have fun. It's party time!

  News September 2009: Raided

The bar has suffered another police raid by Immigration police. But re-opened 9th October 2009.

  Review May 2009: Devilish

 The bar now offers a booking service both for in-call and out-call

The bar specialises in multiple partners and multiple orifices. it is well worthwhile checking out their website for further details.

Traditionally the fun is with two girls guaranteeing a full 90 mins. They are equipped with toys and visual aids etc. The in-call all in price is 3600 Baht. Of course other combinations of number of girls and time are available.

The girls have regular medical checks and the results are posted on the website.

Something of a unique feature of Pattaya that the owners suggest everyone should try once in their life. Plenty of forum posters seem to agree.

  Review from Pattaya Addicts, Aug 2008: Enjoy

Open air, Beer Bar or Pub style bar located on Soi Diana across from the Acrea Lodge.

I really enjoy this Bar. It’s a great way to finish the night. The bar girls are not stunners by some your standards, but some are really cute to be sure and eager to be bar fined (300 baht). The girls are quick to give you a new drink and don’t bother you if your not looking for company, but are quick and happy to provide some if you want,

After 21:00, the house band starts to play and they really know how to rock and have a good time.

Beer is cheap, Bottles of Heineken, 75 baht after happy hour.

  News from Pattaya Today: Night March, Nov 2008: Coyote's Off

It appears as though the experiment of trying to be a noshery during the day and early into the night and then turning into a coyote dance den later in the evening has failed.

After not being able to attract much in the way of chrome pole molesting talent it seems the owners have sensibly ditched the idea and are now getting more sleep at nights.

  Review from Graham, Sept 2008: New GoGo or Not

Howard was doing one of his Pattaya One News promo features on Ingos Bar and Restaurant, opposite the Buffalo Bar. Ingo's is a Scandinavian Bar.

He claimed following renovation, it was now a Restaurant in the day and an A-GoGo in the evening.

Last night at about 1:00am, looked across the road and saw ONE COYOTE (i.e.: fully clothed) girl on a pole. I have yet to do a visit to the place to confirm the situation.

Watching the TV promo, there appeared to be 2 poles.

Our belief is anything less that 3 poles and continual dancing is NOT an A-GoGo Bar.

Judge your self, but that is my view

I have had a good time at the Irish Rovers, at the elbow of soi LK Metro.

Good room rates, friendly owners, friendly staff and nice girls, except for one dark-skinned ladyboy...

They have good drink prices, and what I really enjoyed was the bar crawl to Ban Chang. Viisited a string of short time bars for a few hours, great fun.

Also golf tours, pool and dart leagues.

As for the action, usual rates for girls, and some are quite cute with good attitudes to match.

Soi LK Metro has been very good to me...the vibe here is my current favorite.

  News May 2009: Budget

Thai beers now at 40 Baht after hefty tax increase

  Review from Pattaya Addicts June 2007: Packed

Jane's dares to be different. It offers all Thai beers at 35 Baht a bottle, Thai whisky for 25 and proper whisky for 50, including mixers. It is packed every night!

Catering very much to the ex-pat retiree crowd it has become known to the Thais who work the street as the Bar Gaer (old people's bar).

With lots of seating, friendly if slightly worn staff, a pool table and an attached burger van, Jane's dishes out the Pattaya bar experience on a budget for those whose pensions need to be stretched a little.

Ok, so the bargirls stopped being girls quite a few years ago and you'd rather take them back than take them home but the crowd is warm and welcoming and, just as in any likeminded neighbourhood bar back home, you see the same faces in the same seats every night.

I like it very much.

  Review from stickmanweekly.com, September 2010: Socks Pulled Up

The model of dark, sleazy venues with old, ugly and often overweight wenches is a model that should never have been successful, yet it has been when, by default, there has, until now, been no other real options. Lolita's Pattaya has well and truly raised the bar and the term gentleman's lounge is both appropriate and valid. Here's hoping that rather than bitch and moan and badmouth the venue, other operators pull their socks up and invest in their own premises - and that this will be the first of many venues in this style. Lolita's in Pattaya is what the bars of soi 6, and other bars of this ilk, should be.

  Review from Malcolm, Jan 2010: Expensive Lady Drinks

Lolitas on Soi LK Metro now 700B for BJ. Bought a drink for girl, bottle of something, didn't notice what coz of bott cooler. When the bill came (no bin) it was 185 Baht.

  News from Lolita's, Oct 2009: Under New Management

We are working hard to make your experience at Lolitas Pattaya the best ever! We have completed the remodelling of the lounge area and will be starting on the upstairs area soon.

We have also started a free Tuk Tuk shuttle service at night that will pick you up at your hotel and return you. Just call the bar at 038-720-689 if you need a ride!

We have several promotions available that will appeal to you and we have added several new ladies.

Please stop by and see the new look...truly a Gentleman's Lounge where you can relax and enjoy yourself.

  News from Pattaya Secrets, Oct 2008: Remodelled

I noticed that the bar has been remodelled. I must say that the changes have given the bar a great look. There is more room to move around, they have a TV for sports now.

  From the Yellow Board, February 2006: Doing the Biz

Most girls were only average at best but they dress them up in the same plaid skirts and white blouses you used to see at The Classroom gogos.

This is actually a real nice bar. The downstairs area has a bar, a pool table and a nice aquarium to divide the room and make it appear more cozy. A girl dutifully followed me in and took a drink order as I sat down on a comfortable sofa.

We talked for a while. The bar isn't doing that well in Pattaya and the owners had set up a rotation schedule with the girls from the Bangkok Lolitas. The girl I met was from the Bangkok bar. She said this bar was much much nicer, but she made more money in the big city. She asked if I wanted to "go upstairs". I inquired about rates. 600 inclusive, no tipping necessary.... unless I wanted to. So far so good.

For guys who don't like the exhibitionist quality of the Soi Post Office bars, this is probably the place for you. The "upstairs" consisted of a hallway of about 10 short time rooms. The rooms are probably only 8 ft wide. Just big enough for a barber chair, the modern kind, a table and a sofa.

Since we had privacy, I wanted to see her body. She seemed to think this was kind of unique and got into. She sat back in the barber chair and gave me some porno poses before getting down to action. She was very very good and I gave her a 200 baht tip.

I would have gone back several times and probably been a very good customer, but did not find the bar at all friendly, which may be part of why they aren't doing much biz.

Irish pub & guesthouse

  Review from Pattaya Chat, Jan 2007: Friday Party Night

Owned by Steve from Cork , claims he's the only real Irish bar owner in Pattaya.

Nice atmospheric Irish bar, not really into sport , more music based , always a good fun bar. Holds legendary parties every Friday night , if he can't find a reason to have a party, he'll make one up.

  From the bar, May 2006: Irish Buzz

If you like the buzz and atmosphere of an Irish pub you wont go wrong at Murphy's Law, it is the only genuine Irish owned pub in Pattaya.

Although it is small; the owner Steve from Cork is a great host, every one is greeted and made welcome, and introduced to the other customers, you'll feel like a regular on your first visit.

Unusual for an Irish bar it doesn't have an 'Irishy' theme but Thai style
decor and a cozy feel. The prices are noticeably lower than other bars and the staff while attentive are not pushy.

Food can be ordered in from any of the many close by restaurants.

NeeRoys

Soi Chayaphun

2pm-3am

Bar & Restaurant billed as an English style curry house

  Review from Pattaya Today, Night March Sept 2008:  Noshery

The Neeroys bog-standard noshery is one joint doing alright despite the overall business downturn in Pattaya. Catering to a local market and offering stomach fillers at very reasonable prices, it’s no wonder the place is pretty busy most nights. The 99-baht fish-and-chips remains one of the best value meals in the city.

  Review from Asia Bugle, Sept 2007: Good Place

We went out for a quick and easy feed: partaking of the 99-baht fish-and-chips in Neeroys restaurant. That was a good place for the price we paid.

  Review by Tim, Oct 2006: Sorry to Say...

I made it a point to go the Nee Roys as your site said it had good Indian food.. Well it was a costly trip via Baht bus.. but I though the food would be worth while..

But sorry to say.. the food did not live up to my expectations.. In fact it was in MY opinion poor.. the people were nice.. the price for the beer was OK.. but the food was poor quality.. had their Chicken dish.. poor.. had their curry potatoes.. poor.. they did not even have Lentils.. the mainstay of a good Indian meal.. Nan bread.. OK.. but nothing special..

  Review from Yellow Board, April 2006: Better than the UK

If there are any Indian food lovers, may I suggest NeeRoy's on Soi Chaiyapoon almost facing Crazy Dave's. NeeRoy's is quite cheap for western food and the Indian stuff is better than here in the UK which is famous for this sort of food.

NeeRoy's is owned by a guy from Bradford and his Thai lady.

  Review from Pattaya Chat, Dec 2007: Worth a look

The bar has a Thai guy singing every night.

Average range of girls here and more recently there has been up to 7 lady boys working out front. Neither the girls or the lady boys hassle you for drinks so that is a bonus.

Bar fine is 200 Baht, 50 of this goes to the girl.
If you want some where to relax and not listen to a what a 19 year old Thai DJ thinks you like at a squillion decibels this place is worth a look.

  Review from Pattaya Secrets, July 2006: Happy

I enjoy the happy hour at New Orn Bar on Soi Diana. Can't beat 35 baht Tiger bottles, unless you drink outside 7-11.

The happy hour runs from noon until 6pm. Thai beers at 35 Baht, Heineken at 50 Baht, spirits at 50 Baht, soft drinks at 20 Baht.

The hot girls usually don't start arriving until after 4pm.

  Review from Jil in Pattaya, Aug 2007:  High Quality British Food

Prices for food were reasonable, and the dining room was clean and bright with new furniture and pleasant-enough decor. The staff seemed generally competent and the service was error-free. Everything was more than acceptable for an establishment that isn't focused exclusively on food.

Overall, Ricky's on Soi Buakhow is a nice little restaurant serving reasonably-priced, high quality British food. Definitely worth a visit for a middle-of-the-road budget combined with a good appetite.

The music is House / Club / RnB / Thai .

Drinking is fair priced eg Red Label 1litre 950 Baht mixers are 50 Baht each.

  Review from Pattaya Secrets, September 2009: Lady Cocktails

It was a fun place. Had some friendly ladies. The only thing that I didn’t like was that they have 2 LD prices. A LD or a cocktail. Cocktails weren’t cheap and that’s what all the ladies will ask for

  News from pattayapeople.com, Nov 2008: Renovation

The bar now has 3 new owners, Ivan, Justin and Dirk. They celebrated their acquisition with a party on the 1st November.

They also announced the refurbishment of the venue including adding more sparkle to their lively Coyote Dance Show. The new bar plans to re-open later this month.

  Review from Materialsman, Nov 2008: ‘It livens up later’

This was a successful Coyote Bar style bar from it’s inception a couple of years ago, and last time I was in there, at it’s height of success, it was packed to the gills with attractive hostesses, but last night it was looking fairly forlorn.

The concept has been copied and improved upon by several Coyote style joints, and Papagayos has been left behind somewhat, perhaps due to its location? Besides us, there were only three other customers in the place, plus a couple of whom I assume were the owners, slumped over the till watching their investment slowly disappearing in front of their very eyes.

All told there were about 15 girls dotted around the bar, inclusive of three girls shuffling around on three corner podiums, but they looked pretty bored with life, on the bright side, the beer was reasonably priced at 80 baht a bottle, and a couple of the girls were quite attractive, and I am sure the owners would say that ‘it livens up later’, as they always do, but to me it looks like a bar that is slowly dying.

  News April 2008: Intermittent

The bar was reported to have gone dark for a few days early in April 2008.

The bar seems to be suffering after a long period of expensive pricing and lots of hassle from the girls.

  Review from Pattaya Addicts, March 2007: European City Centre Bar

Papagayo is a very well laid out hostess bar , plays a mixture of music, mostly euro pop and can at times have a lot of very nice ladies, including many freelancers.

It gives off a vibe of a European city centre bar, and is fairly unusual in Pattaya, probably best compared with Secrets, which I think is the nearest to its type, but I would say Papagayo just shades it in style, music and atmosphere, not to mention sexy ladies.

  Review from Malcolm May 2010: Pattaya Golf Society

I called in most mornings to Rabbi's Elephant Bar and Guest House on Soi Buakaow.

Rabbi, a rather hairy Aussie guy who runs the Pattaya Golf Society from there. Golf matches 3 times a week. Prices for drink and food reasonable.

I Didn't go there at night but Nat said there were girls there on offer in the evening. Excellent toilets.

  News from Pattaya Secrets, April 2007: Bamboo Style

The Elephant Bar which opened this week is a little bit different in style than the other bars in that area. It is a large bar with a high ceiling in a double shophouse and decorated in a Balinese-Bamboo style.

Comfortable bar chairs with backrest, leather sofas, a couple of hostesses and soft background music makes this a place to chill-out and relax.

You can either sit at a small outside area or in the large aircon-part of the bar. A pool table is available.

Drink prices are reasonable eg Singha is 60 Baht.

Hopefully they will be able to attract a few more girls soon.

The Elephant bar is located on Soi Buakhao around Soi 21 near the Diana Estate.

Coyote dancing bar. Opened on 8th August 2012.

  News August 2012: No Expense Spared...and all passed on to the customer

A new coyote bar has opened on Soi Buakhao in front of the Blue Rahtree Beer Bar Complex. This is located at about a third of the way along Soi Buakhao starting from the south end at Pattaya Tai.

The bar is very nicely presented with a good view of the central stage from comfortable seating.

The dancers are strictly coyote, and are decent looking agency dancers that come with an expensive bar fine of 1500 Baht. There are reports that the agency girls and high barfines may be a temporary measure whilst the bar employs its own dancers. The music is loud.

The drinks are priced at high end Walking Street levels with no draft, 110-130 bottled beer and 130 Baht lady drinks. And of course these will be just about the highest in the area, as the Soi Buakhao area is typically cheaper then Walking Street.

And unsurprisingly the high prices have been the talking point on Pattaya's forums. First impressions and all that!

Beer bar opened in early 2012.

  Review from Malcolm, January 2013: Drinks are very reasonable

There is a new(ish) bar on Soi Chayapoon, about halfway down on the right towards 3rd Road. Its called the Rest Stop and its been open 11 months.

Owned by an American guy called David. His manageress/housekeeper is Or. There are apartments above which have been open much longer. David is a very pleasant guy and if you have an interest in motorbikes (real ones, not Japanese missiles) you will have a good chat with him.

Food can be delivered from nearby restaurants. Drinks are very reasonable at 55B for Singha, 50B for Leo all the time, other drinks similarly priced.

I don't know why he hasn't got a sign outside advertising his prices.

New coyote bar opened 1st July 2011. Barfines 600 Baht

  Review, September 2011: Something Different

Sugar Sugar is an impressive looking new venue designed very much along the lines of a GoGo bar. It has a central stage and tiered comfortable seating, mostly overlooking the stage. There is however a seating area consisting of clusters of stools around tables.

It all looks familiar in terms of a GoGo bar, but is actually a bit of a departure from the norm for coyote bars.

It is not so obvious that watching fully dressed dancers can command so much attention as to be the main focus point of a bar.

More traditional coyote bars tend to be a place where primarily people go for a chat with their friends and the coyotes are there more as an attractive decoration to add a bit of style or ambience to the bar. As such coyote bars tend to have dancing podiums dotted around the outside of the bar rather than trying to be a central attraction.

Other coyote bars have their dancers in conjunction with a live band, again suggesting that coyote dancing doesn't really make for a complete entertainment solution.

Sugar Sugar does have one extra attraction, it has cheap drinks, eg draft Heineken at 50 Baht .

Coyote girls don't have the best track record of mingling with customers, and none of the girls at Sugar Sugar looked likely to dispel my generalisations, so I enjoyed my cheap drink whilst watching the overdressed dancers and moved quietly on.

However for anyone looking for a stylish place to go with a few mates, then Sugar Sugar looks to be a welcome addition to the Soi LK Metro scene.

  Summary review from Pattaya forums, July 2011: Loud

Well the first impressions were that the dance music is very loud indeed. Too loud for anything resembling normal conversation.

Saying that the opening night seems to have been packed to the rafters.

The bar has started with a bang in terms of the number of girls with several spotted from Club Blu across the road and also from the recently demolished U Too Bar in north Pattaya.

The influx of coyote girls seems to have resulted in way too many clothes being on show on the dancing stages.

The bar has got a central stage with 2 tiers of comfortable seating down one side and the other side having chairs and tables.

Tiger draft 60 Baht. Lady drinks 100-115. Bar fine 500 Baht.

Our bar is the only place in Pattaya where you can try Jelly Vodka and Pepper Vodka shots. Our famous parties are well remembered all over the world. Our customers take home sweet memories about time spent in UP2U Bar. Many of them come back year after year for great drinks, entertainment or else… We constantly update our picture galleries, please return to our web site and check our latest pictures for familiar and new faces.

As you know, most vodka will be sold as plain vodka. We have it, but our specialty is a Pepper Vodka. A Pepper Vodka looks like slightly reddish whiskey. As majority of people think, Russian and Ukrainian Pepper Vodka is the most popular remedy in those countries. Peter the Great was a great fan of pepper vodka. Connoisseurs say that it helps cure all diseases and ailments. They say it wonderfully helps at happy or sorrowful times. It is no use to argue with people, as they seem to be better aware of the issue.

  Review August 2007: Your Typical Pub

Strange for a themed pub but the restaurant appeared a little formulaic. There are several 'English' pubs in Pattaya, none of them offer hostesses for a chat with your meal, all expect you to be interested in the sport on TV and all seem to buy their meals from the same microwave/Boil in the bag catering suppliers.

Still the service was good, the meals were inexpensive, they were perfectly good quality and had good sized portions.

Now if only I could find an 'English' pub that would supply a pretty dinner companion.

Notes

Pattaya bars most likely to be listed are those that occupy a permanent looking standalone building. Beer bars in complexes will not be listed unless mentioned in dispatches. Gay/Thai/Karaoke bars are not listed due to a lack of expertise in those areas. Gogo bars are listed on a separate page. I have added food reviews but this is not a comprehensive service. I will only list eateries where people have submitted comments

The following reviews are those that I come across on the web, in guide books, from contributors and of course from my own visits. Reviewers may be unreasonably harsh and bar owners may present a rosy picture of their bars...so don't take everything at face value...go and see for yourself. Click on the street name to obtain a map of the bar area.

And a couple of words of warning:

• In short time rooms...keep an eye on your wallet to ensure that it stays with you long time.

• To those with Thai wives, be aware of the motor cycle taxi network used to keep tabs on errant husbands.

If anyone would like to add a review or information please email Dave at webmaster@pattayagogos.com
