Sojourner Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 I believe there's another election this weekend judging from all the posters up and the loudspeaker trucks all over town. Does anyone know if the bars will be closed again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetchariot Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Sounds like it as the Thai Visa party has had to be moved from Saturday to Friday due to closures for elections. We've just had 2 dry weekends on the trot down in Pattaya, happy to share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

p1p Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Private parties are okay. No problem. Look out though if you have the entire contingent of Spicy's and Stairway, plus clients trying to mingle. The BiB might be close behind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krupnik Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 If it's only one day there are a number of bars that stay open but they'll only serve you alcohol in a coffee cup etc. Who knows if it is one or two days? Oh and you can still buy from 7-11, they have cardboard etc up infront of the booze shelves in the fridge but just ignore it and grab it if you can and they will still sell it to you. Only realised that recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crow Boy Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 I had to be in town on business on Saturday night and out of interest did the rounds. It was about 50/50 of the farung bars closed. Tuskers, Number 1, John's Bar, Cosy Corner, Spotlight, Foxy, the Arcade bars on Loi Kroh all closed. About half of the top end of Loi Kroh places closed and the rest with the shutters half drawn. All the bars in the Peak area closed. Chiang Mai Saloon and similar open. I didn't check but I am guessing that O'Malley's, Queen Vic, The Pub, and the Red Lion were open and selling alcohol.

We did not have a problem finding somewhere selling. All the bars on the reggae strip though (our normal drinking area) were all closed. 7-11 sold too.
