August 8, 200718 yr Just for the sake of curiousity, why did the Irish pub on Soi Convent, the Irish Exchange, close down? The supply of Irishmen just dried up, people would come in with two kerry men and a desparate need for a donegal man. Sadly none could be found. After a while they were imprting knock off irishmen made in china with names like Lao Ping O'Mally and Seamus Hang Soin Murphy. These ting tong copies would start to leak Guinness after only a week. In the end it was cheaper to refer people with irish to exchange to to save them up until they had a hundred and then exchange them for one Yorkshire man. Strong intelligent, full of charm with a full head of hair and rippling muscles. In short........Moi

Regards to Ken and P. Gerd
August 9, 200718 yr After six years as Bangkok’s finest pub, Bit of a bold statement there, and one I personally find a tad wide of the mark, nonetheless, hope the renovation goes well CC
August 9, 200718 yr So what will happen with the pool table? The Pool Table will be re-covered and fixed up and will be in the same place as it is now.
August 10, 200718 yr I am not an expert but I have to say that I liked the Irish Xchange Pub. I always enjoyed their food, and friendly staff Hope I can get same feeling after september 1st

August 10, 200718 yr It will always be Delaneys to me. Me too. "Why do some places prosper and thrive, while others just suck?" - P.J. O'Rourke
August 10, 200718 yr It will always be Delaneys to me. Me too. Same here. The quality of service of the staff and especially the manager was much better

August 10, 200718 yr pissheads drank them dry. Do they only serve the Irish ? I was thinking elsie!!!
August 10, 200718 yr wasnt this the place run by criminals? Don't think anyone really knows, since transparency is not the name of the game here. The boiler room raids netted few of the controllers, {funny that} but one of the people who was fined was alleged to be the 'owner' of one of the iterations of this place. He made a point of holding a press conference stating he was not. There's a poster herein who waxes lyrical about anyone who drinks there being guilty of moral turpitude owing to the alleged connexion. Regards

August 11, 200718 yr Just want to ask if anyone knows what the football team will call themselves now? And yes, that's the second time I've asked.
August 11, 200718 yr Same here. The quality of service of the staff and especially the manager was much better It's hard to imagine a better casual atmosphere bartender in Thailand than Khun Tan, that guy would rate well anywhere in the world. I've always liked the rest of the staff quite well too, though, and I wasn't around when it was Delaney's, but absence does make the heart grow fonder. It'll be good to have him back in the neighborhood.
August 11, 200718 yr pissheads drank them dry. Do they only serve the Irish ? I was thinking elsie!!! Day 8 on the wagon now, thank you very much. It's hard to imagine a better casual atmosphere bartender in Thailand than Khun Tan, that guy would rate well anywhere in the world. I've always liked the rest of the staff quite well too, though, and I wasn't around when it was Delaney's, but absence does make the heart grow fonder. It'll be good to have him back in the neighborhood. I, too, missed the Delaney's era. But agree with you there that Tan is amazing. Most of the staff were pretty good also, although there were a couple unpleasant incidents happened to my friends. But that's normal. Looking forward to Molly Malone's.
August 14, 200718 yr The Irish Xchange was the first bar I stopped by when I first arrived in Bangkok. And for the last (almost) 4 years, it has been like a second home to me. I will miss it a lot. However, if the staff remains the same, then, I will happily come back as they make a great difference with other pubs! cheers Sego
