As above, wondering if there is any decent rooftop bars in town in case I want a slightly posher/more sophisticated drink before hitting the bars and walking street. Can I express a preference of none/very few Russians there? 

 

I think they were banned due to Farangs tendency to fly off anything more than toilet seat height !!

The Hilton over Central Festival has 2 places that are quite nice.  Siam@Siam has a great roof top.

Barraquda (Second Rd. nr The Avenue).

Puy bar (a cheaper option) - first bar in the middle row of bars in New Plaza as you come from Soi Buakhaow.

From another forum Serenhotel Soi10 beach Rd and apparently one on Walking Street itself - https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g293919-d8366258-r398898455-Bar_Wood_Ball-Pattaya_Chonburi_Province.html

 

Strictly not a bar but you can buy drinks, food wave food court on top of Royal Garden Mall.

 

^ That looks very nice, I had no idea that was up there, cheers.

Not top of the building but worth checking the outside bar on the third floor facing the sea. Forget the name. Also the outside decking of Carl's Junior also on the third floor facing the sea.

More of a restaurant then a bar - walked past it on Sunday night and don't think the outside was even open. Have been for NYE and not stupidly expensive.

FoodLoft?

We use to go to that food loft quite a bit.  The views are very nice.

 

There are several places to sit outside at the Hilton.  Each is a bit different.

"None/very few Russians" - that's pretty racist dude. For that I'm gonna recommend you a rooftop bar full of ladyboys, if I ever find one lol

Beat me to it.

There isn't much in that line in Pattaya, as I guess most tourists want to view a different sort of scenery.

For a sand side restaurant that's not too grotty, on Naklua beach near the big hotels.

Not racist at all, personal preference.  I'd imiagine I'm not alone either...

 

If you do find the rooftop bar full of ladyboys, please do share as I as a bit of a secret fan
