bkk6060 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Someone asked me to go the other day. I realized I had not been for quite some time. When I use to come on holiday or first moved here, yes. I do not even think about it. As a place to go hang out, eat, drink or meet girls any longer. I have a steady list of girls I see do not need to hit the clubs for female company. Not much into bars, got a little bored with the Gogo's, and the last 2 times I ate on WS I got food poisoning ( that was a few years back). So, it may just be me. Usually pretty earlier to sleep, early wakeup now got to make my tee time. Anyway, I guess I could check it out just not motivated so have no idea if it has changed for the better or worse. Have a friend coming in February so will probably wait till then and find out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I walk it once or twice a month as a way from Point A to Point B but the only business I frequent there is Boots Pharmacy. You need to watch out for the large Chinese tour groups, they do not yield. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johng Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I drive down it quite regularly (during the day) but haven't walked there for about 6 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post champers Posted October 19, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 19, 2019 About 10 years or more since I have visited at night time. Been through a few times during the day, passing through to somewhere else. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

55Jay Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Twice in the past 15 years, just to check the box. Things and people change over time, of course, but I just didn't care for the vibe anymore. We didn't stay long. With the exception of restaurants and some shopping venues, I prefer hanging out over on the The Dark Side. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlyai Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Not being a WS regular in the past when I lived there I always will remember the jacuzzi bar, also one upstairs bar that had a glass ceiling and they would lay foam down and the the girls would swim across...all very exciting.

EVENKEEL Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 My last time on WS was in the morning, no I wasn't leaving WS, just out for a stroll. Kind of neat to see in the light of day, how it's really nothing special. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Skallywag Posted October 19, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 19, 2019 (edited) I walked half way through 5 or 6 nights ago.. I walk home by way of walking street 3-4 times a month. Early though 9-10 Fun to watch people and watch kids watching the Turkish ice cream guy do his show Sometimes "talk" with girls outside the go go's trying to lure you in, usually one or two will be friendly. Ladyboys in groups I avoid as can be "overly" friendly. 555 Some good bands still play at few of the bars there.

People who waffle on about how awful the place is yet never go there are rather full of it. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henryford Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 I live fairly close so go quite often. In happy hours it is cheaper to drink there than in most bars. eg Jack/coke 80 baht. Plus there is some pleasant scenery to watch while you drink. Would not even think about paying the ridiculous prices for a lady there though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, often the cover is really attractive, but the book turns out to be very boring? Mind you, I have come across some 'books' with dreadful covers and still exceedingly boring inside as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoreFarang Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 I have to admit I had to read the first post to get an idea about WS. Is that name of the street in which people walk at night banned on TV? I wasn't in Pattaya for a long time so I wasn't in WS. I live in Bangkok and for many years I didn't go to the street with P in Silom area because we all know that is for shopping for tourists. But then one night, I don't remember the reason, I had another look there. And I was positively surprised. A couple of bars with lots of pretty girls - that's not what I expected. So it seems from time to time it's ok to have another look. Just in case things change to the better. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
