  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.

  Review, thanks to PGGG, Jan 2008: Prices

Lady drinks are 75 Baht. Barfines are 400 Baht for hostesses and 500 Baht for coyotee dancers with an additional 75 Baht if no lady drinks has been bought.

I hear the Coyotes are 800 Baht up until 10pm, as no dancers mean the customers don't stay in the bar as long, which is a fair view by the management to protect their beer sales.

Receptionists BF is 600 Baht IF THEY GO OUT, which most do not!

The girls rates are more gogo than beer bar.

Note that there are convenient ST rooms and the price is included in the ST barfine (which is rarely mentioned, as they want to hit you for the LT rate and have the evening off. It also helps them meet their "Off" target). If you pay the ST rate the girl has to return to the bar when you are done.

Soi LK Metro
(off Soi Buakhao)

The Silver Dollar Bar has been, gutted, expanded and reborn as the Bulldog Bar. But it only lasted a couple of months in Spring 2009. Re-opened in autumn 2009 ready for high season.

Private club. Previously Stupid Cupid & Pantry Bar

  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.

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.

Late night disco bar

  October 2005:

CJ's is a late night boogie barn style of operation, but appears out of place in the soi. It looks quite nicely appointed from the outside and when I wandered aimlessly past there were a couple of attractive lasses outside, but a sign out front offering booze at 99 baht turned me off a closer inspection.

Club BLU

Soi Buakhao
(Corner of Soi LK Metro)

www.club-blu-pattaya.com

Stylish coyote dancing bar opened 1st February 2008.

  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 décor 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 décor 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

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.

They will be organising games for Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. John ex Lewiinski's bar plans to play Green Valley on Tuesdays, maybe Siam on Thursdays and move around to the premium courses on Monday and Friday. There will be a signup sheet available in the bar.

There will be no hostesses in the bar though.

  Review Oct 2008: Haven from Girls

On my visit, the bar was operating the stupid policy of the prettiest girls work on the door to get people in. But once you are in, they abandon you to the oldies inside.

I smiled and beckoned to a pretty girl and she followed me in, once she had taken my order she shot back outside. There was nothing to do in the bar aside from admire the two oldies or else have a lonesome drink.

Saying that, there were a few guys having a good old banter amongst themselves. So I put it down as a bar for a friendly chat with fellow farangs rather than a girly type bar.

Beer bar with live band

  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.

  Review from Pattaya Addicts, Sep 2007: Laid Back

Excellent laid back bar called "Heartbeat" that has live music every night from 8pm onwards. Good drink prices and excellent staff who don't hassle you (unless you want to be!)

2nd Road (in bar complex opposite Mike's Shopping Mall)

The bar claimed to have changed from coyote to GoGo in November 2009 but the dancers are still dressed coyote style so remains listed as bar.

  News June 2010: Dark

Reported as closed

  Review February 2010: Still Coyote

I had read that Hottie's Club were trying a re-branding  as an A-GoGo but I didn't spot much evidence of this beyond one of the welcome signs proclaiming Hottie's A-GoGo.

The girls were dressed up in cropped blouses, bras, light skirts and knickers. In my book this is coyote wear so the bar has been de-listed from the GoGos section.

The girls were dancing on 2 stages with a couple of girls on each. They didn't seem very interested in the few customers so I enjoyed my cheap draft beer and departed pronto.

  News from John, April 2009: Up Sized

The bar has now been extended. The bar is more than twice the size of what it used to be.

  Review Nov 2008: Not So Hot

There's a good band and a very cheap 45 Baht draft beer. There's even a few pretty dancers. However at least at an early hour the bar is struggling to get any momentum going (ie I was the only customer).

But as is often the case, if a bar is dead then nobody seems to make any efforts to retain the few customers that give it a try.

Presumably the only girls that put up with a dead bar are those happy to work for the salary rather than tips + extras. Hence nobody is bothered about trying to look after any customers that may pop in.

  News April 2009: Last Dance

Ice seems to have given up dancing altogether. Now open just as a beer bar, not even sure it has any girls.

  News March 2009: Gone Coyote

Ice seems to have given up its gogo experiment and returned to coyote dancing. They have opened up the front doors so that passers by can at least see the dancing on the central stage.

  Review from Materialsman, Nov 2008: On Thin Ice

We came across another Coyote Bar, named ICE, sadly, there were 4 bored almost comatose dancers in the window, but no customers that we could see, so despite this being a Coyote hunt we decided to give this place a miss too.

  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

  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.

I must mention that we looked out of the Club Blu window directly onto Liquid Lounge, previously The Stereo Music Lounge, which purports to be another Coyote style place, but frankly it is in an entirely lower league to Club Blu. I don’t see this as a long term prospect, and I know that the new owner of Club Blu was involved in The Stereo Music Lounge previously, I hope he sold out altogether, never thought I would miss those multicoloured plastic discs on the wall, but I do!

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

I 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.

July 2005: Fun in the Dentist Chair

A fine selection of hostesses and its extremely out of the way location makes Lolita's 'Hideaway of the Month'

The bar is actually located in an L shaped soi connecting Soi Diana Inn with Soi Buakhao.

In the private area on the 'dentist chair', prices start at Bt600. In the private, full-service rooms, prices start at Bt1,500. Well not quite so private as the room walls don't go up to the ceiling so you get to hear your neighbours in action.

There are also girls that will cater for ladies, or couples

There is also a pool challenge. Stake 100 Baht on a pool match against the house and if you win you get a free blowjob

A couple of nights I sat at the bar watching some high quality games in progress. Some of the regulars are very good players, not that far short of professional standard.

It has several TVs for satellite sport and friendly staff to play pool with if you are on your own. The Irish boss, Dennis, runs a smooth operation and I found it a nice place for an early evening game of pool before heading out for the night.

The place is open all day but must of the staff roll in about 16 30 hrs and it stays open till 0200 as long as its busy.

  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.

  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.

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.

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.

  Review from Pattaya-Live Feb 2009: Swinging

The once dead and mummified bar is now extremely swinging and we had a great time. If the large (in quantity) and attractive staff in very short school uniforms isn't enough, there's a very good band playing all night. Beers were 40 baht. Top night. When the band was on breaks, the girls entertained us cavorting on the poles making sure we could all get upskirt views of their thongs.

The kitchen next to the pool is open till 1am and has a huge menu. The free sambuca shots on the hour were also appreciated. There are many overhead fans keeping the tropical environment extremely comfortable.

  Review from Pattaya Secrets Feb 2008: Coyote

4 girls trying to do the Coyote bit on two stages. About 10 girls there. It was about 11:30pm.

Some hot girls. The pushy mamasan said barfines for dancers 1000 until 11pm, 500 11pm-midnight, and then free after that.

Outback is another bar in Pattaya trying to make a living. As it is slightly off the beaten track it is trying various things to bring the punters in. Aside from a reasonably steady stream of new girls and free shots the music isnt that crappy banging hip hop that you get in town with bars competing on sound levels.

Beer prices are average and lady drinks are at a 30 Baht premium to the standard price for that drink.

They have the South African sports channels.

  News Nov 2007: Outback Comeback

The slightly out of the way bar has made a comeback in autumn 2007.

Initial reports suggest that they are having a tough time recruiting attractive girls but are offering a zero barfine to try and get customers/girls interested.

Guys from Outback were also spotted barfining girls from Soi 6 to try and assist with the staff shortages. Doesn't sound like it worked out, but at least it generated a little publicity to get the bar noticed.

The previous incarnation was not well remembered by Thai-Anxiety readers who tell me they stopped dining there when the service and quality plummeted to abysmal levels.

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.

There was a knock at the door of our "private room". And we were warned not to "do that". Turns out, after one of the ladies went to see what was up, they showed her the video monitors. They monitor the rooms with a hidden camera to put a stop to "doing that"...

No sign, no warning just a hidden camera!
Be warned.

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.

  News June 2009: Too Much Bottle

The well known owner of the popular Rock House on Soi LK Metro hit a customer with a bottle causing a gash to his head.

The incident arose out of an ongoing argument between bar owner Alex (posting as Mulphy on Pattaya forums) and a board member using the handle Fondles.

The argument was said to be aggressive but verbal. At one point Alex said he felt threatened and Glaswegian survival reflexes kicked in, he overreacted and struck out with a bottle.

Fondles made a quick exit but was further attacked outside by the bar owners friends.

No serious injuries were sustained and the protagonists are reported to have reached a settlement.

This was the only time this has occurred in several years of running the bar.

  From UP2U, Oct 2007: Chili Pepper Vodka!

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 from Pattaya Talk, April 2009: Premiership

A great place to watch the Premiership football at the weekend They have six different screens each showing a different game so your likely to catch your team. The food wasn’t great though.

  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.

Night club and disco. Good show but hasslesome toilet jockeys and dual pricing. Not a freelancer venue.

  Review by Pattaya Ghost, Dec 2008: Smokin

Closed for more than a month for renovation, Pattaya’s X-Zyte nightclub is back with a new modern look, fresh lineup of acts and some smokin’ hot dancers.

The stage area has been completely revamped with the 1980s-style “wall of lights” replaced with a huge LCD screen on which the DJ showed computer-generated graphics, video and live feeds from the stage camera. It has an impressive effect. Also notable is the new laser lighting systems so popular in clubs and go-gos now in Pattaya, plus various wall and ceiling fixtures.

The two 90-minute stage extravaganzas (startng at 11 p.m.) are truly superb, rivaling a top-flight Las Vegas stage show. The lineup, at least this Friday night, has been tweaked with many more of the dance numbers with singers playing to the band  With 20 or so dancers on stage in terrific costumes and choreography, these are definitely preferred over the solo singers.

The standard bottle of Chivas Regal costs 780 baht and if you buy that you can take up to 4 people in with you for no added charge. The first setup of 2 Cokes, 2 bottles of soda water, ice and popcorn was 340 baht. Additional mixers are 60 baht, another basket of popcorn was 40 baht and only the charge for ice (60 baht) seemed out of line.

As with most Thai clubs, however, the economics are built on bottles of the sponsored whiskey, so if you really want an economical evening, that’s the way to go.

X-Zyte is not a pickup joint and if you go there stag you’ll likely leave that way. Friday and Saturday are really the best nights to go with the crowd comprised of “good” Thai girls out together or with their Thai boy sweeties.

Overall, X-Zytle is a terrific and inexpensive night out, especially if you go in a group.

  Review from Pattaya Secrets, Sept 2007: Empty

I noticed that there was a distinct lack of women also; no freelancers, no ‘HiSo’s’ not even a LB in sight. To be honest the place was pretty empty even when I left at around 1.00am.

The pressure that customers are now put under to consume drinks is incredible, every two minutes some waiter approaches you pointing to your bottle/glass with the immortal words, one more? What made it more ridiculous was that I was drinking from a glass and it was blatantly bloody obvious that my glass was 2/3rds full. It made me feel uncomfortable to the point of me deliberately drinking slowly to piss them off and I kid you not, someone from the Management (read important man wearing suit and tie) asked me in a not so friendly tone did I want another drink.

The final nail in the coffin for me was when I caught a glance of the bill belonging to the Thai couple sitting next to me. For a small bottle of Heineken and some alcho pop thing I was charged B300 which in all honesty, I can live with as the show is pretty intense with some great action etc, but the Thai couple next to me paid B150 for a small Heineken and a Bacardi Breezer!

  News March 2007: Hot

There were reports of a fire on the morning of 27th March. Way after hours though so hopefully few people will have been inside.

Damage did not appear extensive from a passing drive by later in the morning

  Review from Pattaya Polecat, March 2007: Regal

The vast interior is a cross between a 1930s cinema and the starship in Close Encounters, also has lavish dance-and-sing shows, and roving video-cameras capture stills of merry punters on big screens.

You can get a bottle of 100 Pipers whisky for 580 baht, or Chivas Regal for 950 baht.

Hot place but never got a lady in there wanted many but could never get hold of one.

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

Takeaway Prices

July 2007:  Short Time Edging Up

From Pattaya Secrets and tallies with my own observations

• Dancing Girl ... ST 1000 / LT 2000 (assuming good performance). I would suggest that you should be willing to add an extra 500 to the GoGo fee if you get stuck on a model class girl and you find yourself unable to say no.
• Beer Bar Girl ... ST 500 / LT 1000 (quickie) to ST 700 / LT 1500 (for an entire evening of effort)
• Street Freelancer ... ST 500 / LT 1000 (no questions, no exceptions)
• Short Time Bar Girl... Traditionally ST 500 with 250 for the room (+ small tip for good service) but now edging up to ST 700 and 300 for the room
