Pattaya Reports

[SubCmdr]

Not sex related but some in Pattaya like me actually liked this place. Huge fire at Pattaya Floating market a couple of hours ago. What a shame. One of the nicest areas of Pattaya to walk around even though I had to pay a Farang surcharge. The market was never the same since COVID.

Was on my list to visit. Never got a chance to. Agreed. What a shame. I hope they rebuild.

There are 2 types of Thai bars:

Morlam bars, which have shows, are large, and men and women go to hook up.

And.

Host bars, where staff drink with customers for tips. The customer buys bottles, with ice. No hanky panky, no barfines.

I can't think of a bar catering to Thais that works like a Farang bar. The problem is that ladies working Thai bars typically have Thai husbands, who may show up at her bar at any time.

That's really the killer for Thai bars, it literally may mean death for the lady if her Thai boyfriend shows up.

Yes there are lots of bars and clubs spread out here, too many most are a waste of time. The bar you noted change of name or new owner, but it use to be KiKi bar. It is a walking distant from Castor Gym Pass the Gym there are another dozen more than what it use to be. Curious what is your definition of a Thai Bar?

The Darkside bar is in sight of Castor gym, but its a Farang bar.

The address you give, in Pattaya it is useless unless you provide the Moo? There is Moo 1- 10 plus, 1 is further north as you work you way up to Khao Noi that is close to 10. Based on your address the Thai Post office guy wouldn't leave the barn to make the delivery.

You are correct. The address had Thai letters which were deleted.

I will use attachments.

[LittleBigMan]

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.

Inviting ladies to come to your place (as opposed to bringing them yourself) has one drawback. Sometimes they show up with a friend. And that's not good. I never let the friend into the condo.

Yesterday, an invited lady showed up with her sister. I sent the sister packing (she drove my friend to the condo, and I guess she figured it was worth a try to get a paid session).

You don't want the 2nd lady, because what will happen is the 2 ladies will drink and talk and ignore you. Even if they get a little drunk, they will be "too shy" to do anything.

So, the lady came up alone. She's a cashier, but claimed she does go ST with customers (she lives with her Thai boyfriend so can't go Long Time) infrequently, and only HJ and BJ.

After some drinking, I did some pussy licking, after that, she was raring to go. I guess she forgot about her boyfriend for a while.

Of course, the smart guys come for Low Season.

Yesterday my buddy was telling me that he started the lease on his condo during low season, so that every year when he reups the price will be low. I never understood why people wanted to come when there are more guys either. Super-low season (covid) was where it was at!

[Raj Patela]

Not a knock on anyone. No offense.

There must be 65% who are into Bargirls who don't give a Bleep about looks.

You see it everyday in Pattaya just walking around. I think it goes hand in hand with Price. There can be no other Explanation.

[Raj Patela]

It's typical that, in the depths of Low Season, many people feel its never going to end. Then High Season comes, Pattaya is jammed, and then people are surprised when May 1 comes and Pattaya is dead again.

Because there were so many customers last year, some will come back, and new customers will come, so any lady that maintains social contacts with last year's customers will do very well this High Season.

Of course, the smart guys come for Low Season.

Correct answer is go when you want. Soi 6 looks the same every day of the year and especially on Sunday's.

[Raj Patela]

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)?

Explorer is taking a Beating. No offense Bro.

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.

Cool thanks. I'll check this bar out. Haven't been to the Dark Side since pre-COVID. Due for a visit, good or bad.

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.

Thanks LBM. Will check out Route 66 as well.

Of course, the smart guys come for Low Season.

I've always said go in Low Season. Skip from December to after Songkran. Girl:Guy ratio drops so much. May to November are good albeit hotter and a lot more rain. Go from June to mid-September and have all the girls to yourself.

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..

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..

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.

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.
