henrik2000 Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) Hello, back to Jomtien + Pattaya as a tourist after 1 year. I wanted to ask you what's new in Jomtien + Pattaya in these categories: live music, esp. Thai style live music, not plain rock restaurants, esp. Thai and Italian, not grill, not posh, not in heavy tourist areas like Walking Street or Soi Buakhao coffee shops standing out for ambience or quality attractions natural, historical transport with Bolt + Grab + Baht Bus traditional massage I don't need updates about girlie bars, agogos, soapy massage, fine dining, discos, gin tonic. About live music: I very much like Thai live music restaurants like Kon La Fun, Sin Lapin Isaan. From Google Maps I understand they are still operational? Any others come to your mind? Occasionally I like to watch live bands on Walking Street in Stones House, Candy Shop, Muzzik Café (but not live rock in girlie bars). And it seems that lukthung place Zac (?) at the very NE start of Walking Street ((roughly opposite Stones House)) has still not come back. - Also Samran Pub on Pattaya 3rd Rd is no more? – And in the Jomtien hinterlands, there was the Thai music hall Ban Morlam (roughly near Rom Pho Café, Rom Pho Barbecue Buffet, inland from Rom Pho entertainment complex), but it also seems gone forever? Thanks for all updates! Edited October 28, 2023 by henrik2000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GypsyT Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) Swedish (?) "Akvavit" on Jomtien had nice mellow live music last week. And Sandbar on Dongtan beach had HOT Latin evening on Friday. Next one Nov 10. I love Latin music and dance. https://www.facebook.com/sandbar.bythesea9/ Edited October 29, 2023 by GypsyT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also has a unique feature which are a few different flavours of in-house brews, and you can try any or all of them by purchasing a card and then pouring as much as you want of each type (as little as 20 baht for a sip). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By "in-house brews" I understand you mean beer and not coffee, right? It's an interesting system for sure, and I'd love it for coffee too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps a money-maker for those entrepreneurial types out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually later on Google Maps i read a Thai's (?) review about the place, translated by the system into my local language, and here translated by me to English: "Coffee that you can smell and try before buying. You can try, taste and smell almost everything." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
