miketu Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Has anyone been down Soi Cowboy in the last week or so? Are Soi Cowboy clubs back to normal, pre pandemic? Is it worth the effort to plan a visit? Tks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstevens Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Still quite a few bars on Soi Cowboy have not reopened. Crowds picking up but nothing like they were a few years ago when it was shoulder to shoulder along the soi some nights. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoreFarang Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 No I made those pictures a couple of days ago - July 2022. Some venues will never open again - until maybe someone else buys them. Some could open now but they don't because there is not much business going on. And the bars which are open are IMHO best case half as good as they used to be. I.e. Crazy House with the same concept, just fewer girls and they are a lot older and fatter than previously. Will Soi C ever be what it was years ago? Probably no. Because even in the years before Covid business was down compared to previous years. Fewer girls, fewer customers, and higher and sometimes a lot higher prices (coyotes).

miketu Posted July 10, 2022 Author Share Posted July 10, 2022 Wow, thanks for the update guys, even though depressing. What about Nana Plaza, any better or the same as cowboy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about Nana Plaza, any better or the same as cowboy? Similar. More and more bars open but most of them are best case only half empty. And all bars struggle to get girls and especially good looking girls. Many "girls" who work there now wouldn't have been able to get past the entrance a couple of years ago. Fat, ugly, old. Luckily, and as usual, a few bars are not bad. Especially in the 3rd floor. But don't count on that. Not long ago one of the well known bars reopened. I was there on one of the first nights. Wow! Lots of pretty young girls. A week or two later almost all of them were gone. Similar in the ground floor. What was Rainbow 1 opened again. Few girls, but nice. A week or two later most girls were gone. In Nana lady drinks are 200B per drink and whisky somewhere between 150 - 200 (in that area). It is a lot more expensive than it used to be. Sorry, I don't know the beer prices. And, last but not least, the hotels on the premises are currently closed. My personal prediction (without any Nana insider info) is: It won't get much better before the end of the year. Nana needs lots of customers (with enough money) to fill up that place. I don't think there are enough of those guys around in the low season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaiyaTH Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Was horrible before covid already, even they still had enough tourists by then to keep things going (even you would see owners change frequently). Doubt there is much future for it, unless enough girls come back that start to offer proper service again at normal prices. Nowadays it gets to amounts that you might as well take a girl in any country of the world, or even better, hot Russians in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dddave Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 (edited) I went to Soi Cowboy with friends this past Friday & Saturday nights, though didn't stay later than 11pm. Crazy House was as OMF stated, same-old but mostly veterans, few new recruits. Dollhouse is under new ownership, no more Happy Hour until 9pm, cut back to 8:30. Not a bad line-up of dancers, some very attractive and fairly lively entertainers showing most of what there is to show. Speaking of showing what there is to show, Long Gun surprised me with a very nice line-up, many of whom displayed their talents in full though the youngest and cutest were more coyly clad. Long Gun remains old school with shows that harken back to yesteryears long past. The venerable "egg drop", alas with plastic balls, flower pull from the groovy garden, ciggy puffing and balloon busting with little darts flying like shrapnel. I can not imagine anybody getting worked-up enough by any of these numbers to go out an commit even the mildest sex crime. Tilac had far more customers sitting out front than inside. A quick peek inside made clear why. Mostly veterans, few rookies, nothing changed in 15 years, including the wait-staff. As others have said, lots of dark entryways still.

Seppius Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 I was told the so-called "Arab" bars never reopened when I was there a few weeks ago, otherwise, I thought the street was buzzing ok. 2am close Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I like to interact with the girls before there is more action. Good looks, good moves and even details of their promised performance are misleading. And some girls are in a good mood one night and in a bad mood the next night and depending on a certain amount of tequila. Obviously it's convenient to pick up the phone and order room service. But personally I think personal selection is definitely the better way to get what we want. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
