One of our gigs has been rescheduled from Saturday night because the club is closing for the elections and there's the almighty booze ban. Not that I'm a raging alcoholic but I do enjoy sitting in a bar of an evening.My question. What is there to do on a Saturday night in Pattaya that doesn't involve bars/clubs/pubs. Sitting in my hotel seems like a waste of a night and the cinema, well I can do that in any city.Cheers.

6PM Saturday. Most bars will be closed but last weekend a lot of bars opened up again on Sunday around 8PM.

Surely the most successful are the Russians. More money than sense. I, being a Scot would never own a bar in Thailand unless I had some serious cash to throw at it and make sure it didn't just become another girl bar.

I have the night off from DJing and I was hoping there were some events or parties happening somewhere away from Walking Street and your usual girl filled bars. Quiet drink amongst normal people preferred.

11 pages on this already!

12. I'm impressed too. You can see how important alcohol is for ThaiVisa members.

My liver is just fine. Young and healthy. I arrive in Thailand on tour once a year to DJ and this weekend I've had to drink in my hotel room with the rest of the guys. Oh well, it is Thailand. Love it or hate it, it's an amusing mystery of a country and I wouldn't let a weekend of empty go-go's put anyone off visiting...

Anyway, enough talk about forum members willies... this place seems like a youtube argument between children sometimes.

Can anyone actually tell me for certain when the ban finishes as there seems to be a bar or two round Nana selling alcohol.

rumour has it at 8 p.m so if you head off now you should be right

Not that I'm a raving Alcoholic but being Scottish it's always nice to have a proper drink in a bar when arriving.

I just read over on davetheravebangkok.com that the Alcohol ban is lifted at 8PM on sunday? is this correct?

I just bought some Jack Daniels at the Airport. No ban there. I'm a little worried about all the clubs and bars being closed upon my arrival today. Hmmmm

Brilliant. Thanks for the info gents.

You might do better with this in one of the community forums. Try posting in whatever city you are in now...say...Bangkok forum. And then try the others later. If you want, I can move this post there for you.

Thanks for the reply. If you could move it to the correct forums that would be great. I'm in Bangkok at the moment but would ideally like to know of any Scottish bars in Pattaya & Phuket.

Cheers.

Hello. Forgive me if this is the wrong place to post. I'm over in Thailand for my 7th year and DJing at various clubs and parties but I was hoping some people could point me in the direction of some Scottish based pubs or bars in Bangkok, Pattaya & Phuket?I've been to Nessies in Pattaya before but it closed down a few years back and was never reopened elsewhere as far as I'm aware.Thanks for any info!
