Pattaya Reports

[Explorer8939]

On the lower part of the Khao Talo there are a bunch of new open bars very small. As for Booze I've been there a few times precovid only because of friends not impress ever. They try expanding once they had a place on Soi Buakhao, another different name on Soi Landoffice up from Tiggybits restaurant all gone before Covid.

Actually, there are more bars open today top portion of Khao Talo than in pre-COVID. There is another road leading up South from Nernpludwan that has a number of small bars nothing special. As for Ex remarks and picture I'm not familiar with this building it doesn't look like property on Nernpludwan. Based on the map it is Spelled wrong but it looks like a Soi called Tungkom Tulang which is south of Khao Talo. On the Darkside, Thai ladies with farang backing usually are funded by farangs I hear this a lot " small money " This is all they know after the grand opening friends are gone six months down the road door shuts. Those that stay open like Monkey Bar, Pussy Cat are doing things they shouldn't. Although it is small money to Thais it adds up when you start to kick out each month and bring in zero even the farang who thinks they are rich due to the exchange rate get a reality check these are basically grey businesses of what the Triads are being accused of but on a much larger scale..

Per Google Maps, the address of the bar is:

91/15 Pattaya City, Bang Lamung District, Chon Buri 20150.

Again, I am not recommending anyone go there, as its a traditional Thai bar. There are Farang bars in the Darkside, where fun can be had. One example is the Darkside Bar on Khao Talo road, just before it turns into Khao Talo 9. Lots of doable ladies, but I rarely get out there.

[LittleBigMan]

How many of the Khao Talo bars are still open? Booze was the best one by a mile imo. Problem with Booze is that the guys who live in the area go every single day so the girls are just with them or waiting for them.

Are there nice looking girls at these Thai bars (not farang owned bars) Explorer is talking about on Soi Noen Plub Wan? Are they like girls from Palace and Pin Up (where I find my girls) or more like girls from Soi 25 (where Explorer finds his girls)?

In the years I was running around updating the places on the darkside for a guy in town I did this for a reason didn't get paid but allowed me to stop at each place to take a pee maybe I just might find a gem. In all that time I can only remember once a Thai guy confronted me and it wasn't a BF, The majority of these places have to pay to operate once a month a car pulls up, and payment is made usually to the district cops so having your own protection a Thai guy isn't good business or appearance out here.

As for looks, I would compare it to personnel on Soi Pothole, you aren't going to find Go-Go types out here. In the past, I've been more attracted to female Thai managers, owners, and even cashiers.

Further out to the Lake even rare about a dozen are ventured by local expats. Yes if you visit at bad timing you can easily get cock block but a regular that buys drinks all night long. The ones on Khao Talo top portion have ST rooms on site. The place I used to enjoy is Aqua Deyme down off Nernpludwan I've had a few really good rolls in the hay there they have a pool, pool table, and rooms in the back very nice setup. Right now two popular places out on Soi Siam Country around 5 KM off Sukhumvit, Soi 27? Next to the Taco House, a place called Darkside Bar, across the road Rt. 66 I see lots of traffic in and out while I chuckle down tacos.

If backrooms bother you and you have your own transportation you can head back up to Sukhumvit Soi just before between Nernpludwan and Siam is a ST resort call what else " Love Inn " one of the best clean, 280 for 3 hours 580 VIP for the night.

I agree. I had my first ever trip to Thailand last January-February and I really expected it to be slow and barren after reading a lot of the doom and gloom (the global economy slowing down is hurting tourism!) reports here. Maybe it wasn't as busy as previous high seasons, but Bangkok and Pattaya were absolutely PACKED. I would take reports stating that Thailand is going to be hurting and slow with a grain of salt. People have been saying that for a long time on here it seems, but Walking Street was still packed, bars were packed, malls were packed, etc.

I'the love for things to slow down as I hate crowds, but let's be honest with our reports, fellas. The crowds of Chinese and Koreans are still very much flooding the streets of Bangkok and Pattaya, particularly for high season. I bet you could even watch YouTube videos / streams that will confirm this. I am going again this December and I'll report back.

My guess for why last high season was packed and high tourists numbers was the pent up demand from people not being able to travel due to Covid. We're well over a year now since the world reopened so to speak and travel across the globe has seen record numbers. But I think that post Covid demand starts to fizzle soon and places like Thailand won't see as busy high seasons for a while.

Global recession incoming, people's savings from Covid and government stimulus checks are about exhausted. Saw a stat that almost half Americans only have $1,000 or less in savings. I think that is likely indicative of the rest of the world.

Pattaya currently is pretty dead, especially compared to this time last year. I took a walk down Soi Pothole the other night and no customer in sight but a crap ton of ladies working and hollering for handsome man to buy drink. Honestly the ladyboys were better looking than the ladies on Soi Pothole.

I get multiple massages a day and all the ladies complain about a lack of customers and how slow it is.

Generally speaking, not a ton of lookers in Pattaya, but a ton of average looking ladies. It's fairly dry out there but I'm still having a good time.

Still amazes me on how many ladies insist on 1,500-2,500 for ST with so little customers. They're in for a rude awakening once the global economy really starts to melt, they'll be begging for 800 baht ST soon enough. Just my humble prediction.

There are tons of Farang bars in the Darkside. A few have high quality ladies. The Darkside bar on the main drag of Khao Talo, has some hotties.

Among the Thai bars, you will find loads of housewife types, instead of a day job, they work bar at night ("only drink" Not so hot. And low earnings, because of the no hanky panky thing.

Rarely, some young Thai guy will show up as a customer, a bargirl falls for him, sometimes with tragic consequences.

Bottom line: mongers can skip Thai bars, and Darkside Farang bars, and stick to Pattaya.

I don't understand what your are saying. I was in Pattaya for high season last year and it was crammed. I've never seen a busier high season.

Many of the best places are located on the top portion of Soi Khao Talo, these places are pretty much like places on Soi Boomerang. When reference to Thai owned majority of them are owned by former bar girls.

Yep. And usually I am meeting one of those chicks on Thai Friendly and going to pick her up there after work for 1000 baht all night. That is exactly who the owners that I have been introduced to are.

Nope I've never even been to Soi Noen Plub Wan. Never saw a reason to go there. Bars look dumpy. Area looks dumpy.

As for Thung Klom-Tan Man 9, what is this place? An open air restaurant? There are PR girls here? If I went here I'd never find my way back home!

What does having an onsite room have to do with being able to take a girl home from a bar or DFK her in a bar? No onsite rooms at 98.325% of the gogo bars I've visited. Does that mean nothing goes on in the bar or you can't meet a girl from there on her day off? But to answer your question no I don't know any Thai bars with onsite rooms. Not saying there aren't any I just never ask.

I've been out on the dark side for 20 years, I know the Soi of Nern plud wan like the back of my hand. Out here main roads would include Soi Siam, Nern pludwan, Soi Khao Noi, and Soi Khao Talo. The reference of the Soi by E is spelled incorrectly I believe might be Soi Tungkom Talang in correct is South of Sukhumit left side into Soi 89, This road in length is about 6 KM, There are places that open daily and close daily.

Not blowing my horn but I used to cycle daily out here and once did a review and map for a guy on the PA site with bars on the dark side I would update him yearly. But since Covid with places closing by the hour, what was the point of an update? Many of the best places are located on the top portion of Soi Khao Talo, these places are pretty much like places on Soi Boomerang. When reference to Thai owned majority of them are owned by former bar girls. Some of the outdoor bars enclosed are farang back with a front of a Thai lady. In all my years, I've not been confronted by any Thai man at any of these places or had to watch one sit nearby.

There was a time when Nernpludwan had a number of bars today barely a handful, one in mind is Red Bar still open. Many farangs out here get big heads and want to own a bar easy to do, but realize after a few months the money isn't so small when they start to kick out 50,000 plus a month and bring in zero. When they open it is packed party it up then when the friends leave driving by one can predict the end. A few still operate and you never see anyone inside, they are laundering money or in a backroom gambling house. There are two such places on Nernpludwan, I met one years ago a farang who purchased it for his ex-wife said to give her some business got some nice-looking girls inside Even with my low standards I nearly threw up there were a few young kids outside playing with their phones I ask the wife what's up with that, protection because she running a gambling house upstairs. I told the Farang to tell your wife to decide if the club is for fucking or gambling get the punks out if it is fucking.

Today, just off Nernpludwan there is still one place worth visiting and that is Aqua Demi, has a pool and ST rooms in the back a really nice setup 15 years ago it was packed, especially on Sundays. Girls used to dance naked and swim in the nude. There are a number of places on Soi Khao Talo, past the Gym and Siam Puri food store. One lady owner has been there for years she passes drugs out of her place. Otherwise, there aren't really any notable places There are a number of outdoor bars on surrounding Soi not worth mentioning open today and closing tomorrow.

Out of Siam near the Taco House Soi 27? There are two GCs named Rt. 66 and Darkside that look interesting but never any sitting outside but at times loads of bikes.

One place I've wanted to try for a long time on Nernpludwan a Thai Karaoke club from 9 pm on have from a distant best looking girls in the area. I don't venture on the Darkside too close to home never know if I might run into a neighbor. Out to the Lake don't bother but if you stay a long time can ride a big it is worth looking into in the old days I found some of the best GF experiences out here but if you are looking young don't bother.

I never understand why you think a bargirl "drinking a boatload of tequila" is fun. I would much rather have a nervous fresh girl over a slobbering drunk experienced girl. But to each their own I guess.

I worry about the BFs more than an uninterested BARGIRL, Guys and girls on Drugs do unorthodoxx things.

[Raj Patela]

Only girls out at 1. 40 am in my experience are the ones that are either too ugly to have been taken or just returned from a premature punter! Better to wait for the next evening shift.

I didn't post above. But I approve the ConTeNt.

This is a Problem. Only plus is you can get them for 1 k.

What I want to know is where is he picking up all of these drunks? I have bottles of liquor that have literally been here over 10 years. That is only because the cleaning lady once threw some of the even older ones out. 9 point9 times out of 10 when a chick comes over here all she wants to drink is water.

To Horatio and Explorer. You are both correct. However, the winner goes to the one with the best and biggest tits!

There is another kind of Thai bar, where bargirls go to hook up with Thai men. Since the ladies aren't working, they are there to secure a boyfriend.

This one is on Third Road, but there are dozens scattered around Pattaya.

Bargirls can drink a lot, so she was far from a slobbering drunk.

After a couple of hours of drinking, they are just getting loosened up.

[Explorer8939]

Not to be negative Nancy.

Last high season was non existent. My prediction this year's high season will be worse than that.

Just as an example. Las Vegas is setting tourists records every month while Thailand has fallen and can't get up.

Yes I do consider comparing Vegas and thightland apples to apples comparison.

Revenge Travel is real.

Last High Season, things were so busy that I couldn't get a Bolt taxi. Bargirls were inundated with customers. Good luck finding a seat in popular gogos, too many customers.

It was so busy in January, I went on a tfip to Brazil to get away from the crowds.
