dabhand Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Closed today due to PEA electrical work in the area. Open tomorrow!! The OP can rest easy and be assured that his meager pension will just need to cover for one day of high living before reverting back to the usual economical fare. Hope you were well stocked with smelling salts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you were well stocked with smelling salts. I ate here only one time. few weeks ago, it was correct but i was hoping low prices with ''cheap charlie'' in the restaurant name unfortunately the average dish is around 200 bahts, maybe it's low from a foreign point of view but not for Pattaya as you can have few better options imo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they have a single dish 200+ Yes i am sure i was unable to find only one plate at less than 100 (Except few thai dishes, that can be anyway cheaper in a Thai restaurant) and the drinks werent cheap also. i don't know if there is a photo of the menu somewhere i would be pleased to verify and apologize if i am wrong maybe my memory fails me, but i doubt it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingofthemountain Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Thank you for the photo, i was half wrong the average price for a dish is around 150 and not 200 but with a drink (I don't like to eat without at least drink a small bottle of water) it's 200, and there is only 1 dish at less than 100 (99 exactly) so from my point of view it's not so cheap 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me I rather spend the extra 50+ bht on Cheap Charlie as their food quality is far better in my view. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As i said i ate in ''Cheap charlie'' one time to verify if it was cheap as expected with the name from my point of view it was not, as i paid 200 for a basic dish and a small bottle of water so i will continue to go to few Thai restaurants where i can have a nice tasty dish and the same small bottle of water for less than 100 bahts but no problem, i am sure a lot are happy with the food and the prices here and it's perfect like that 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The service is not the same nor can the price be. Edit: If you mean Thai restaurant serving western-type food, please show us a pic or two of what you get there for less than a 100 b, I'm curious.
