was then older man the owner

 

^^You can park on the opposite side of the road, using the "Boardwalk" car park. Tried the Lord Nelson last midweek, thought the setting and decor very nice indeed.

Food; basic menu but good fare (had pork chops; chicken wings). Maybe they will expand the menu at a later date. (Seems that Mrs Franz from Bella Vista w/ kitchen staff is now working there..). The service when we were there was fine, but usually a bit erratic on any new venture until everyone knows what they're supposed to be doing.

Will be going back again.

I have no idea who the man at the bar was.

I've tried Sakana the new Japanese restaurant a couple of times and its very good. Its located near to where the CTH office used to be. The food is great, staff are friendly & one waitress is fluent in English. The only downside is as its small and vey popular sometimes its full.

On a second visit, he seems to be a very irritable / miserable git, tbh.

 

He ought to appoint a manager to run the bar / restaurant, and keep his charismatic personality elsewhere.

You cant' be referring to that jovial gent who looks like the character 'Greengrass' from the popular UK drama series Heartbeat.

Captain Birdseye you mean

Early days and just getting going.

'Captain Birdseye' is actually ok.

Please get some fine ales as your sign says Captain Birdseye/Greengrass even if its just some draughtflow cans in the fridge.  Very nice looking place though.

Latest news/rumour? is that after Xmas/New Year there will be a UK chef/head cook starting.

Was in there tonight , as a Brit that's been living away from

home for a long time I loved it ! The decor and setting is really nice  the food was decent just needs a decent selection of beers and it would be a winner ! Great to see places like this in ban chang I hope

it does well .

sorry double post 

Agreed it looks quite attractive. Hope they will indeed be serving 'fine ales'. A few photos on their one-page website: http://www.lordnelsonthailand.com/  and a few more here: http://www.amwebtest4.co.uk/ .  Good luck to 'em.

Ban chang improves every year I come back . I don't live here full time but have a house here and have always enjoyed the town . Has a nice mix of expats and decent paying jobs for the Thais . I hope it keeps improving without turning into a Pattaya .??

Just spotted a new Pizza place in Ban Chang, "Pizzeria Ban Chang" heading down the Nam Rin road, after the traffic lights on the bypass road and on the right just before where the rescue team hang out.

Looks like it has just opened, the sign says open 10.30 - 22.30, anybody tried it yet?

Tried it maybe 2 weeks ago. It was ok but abit small and to firm dough for me. Tried the 4cheese and some spicy sausage.

The new expat mart food and drink shop is open now, (since last weekend), on the Bypass road Ban Chang, good stock and prices seem to be considerably cheaper than anywhere else around Ban Chang. Some very good grub!!

^Yep, checked it out last weekend, prices and selections are good.

Nice shop,

 

And for our Swedish followers I can tell you they have Felix Smorgas and Boston gurka, Kalles kaviar and Greve' ost and a few other Swedish food items.

Another new restaurant open ion Ban Chang, Pizzamaifood Resturanto Italiano, Bar and Restaurant, about 100m past Ninas Kitchen or 100m before the traffic lights. I guess by the name it's a Pizza place LOL!!

Sign says open daily at 10am

I have not tried it yet, but i will soon!

Between the Payoon road and Phala road traffic lights, shops beside Miracle Grand Ville, end shop on second block.

^Hope it lasts longer than the place which is now the "Clock" restaurant.

If it's only been going since post 501 it already has lasted longer.?

We went last night, and apparently it has been open for about a year???? but, they had some problems with water leaking inside the building so they did a complete renovate and upgrade. This included a complete redo of the outside area as well and a new sign of course which is why i thought it was new.

Very nice and clean, great seats (Sofas!!) very good food at very good prices, cheap  beer (San Mig Lite 60 Baht) and wine around 650 baht a bottle, big menu, Pizzas, Steaks, Seafood, Thai food.....

The Thai lady owner speaks very good English.

We will go back for sure. Pizzamai https://www.facebook.com/pizzamaifood/

I have found it post 500, but it looks out of sync as that is the one Huangnon, Overherebc and myself were replying to.

Was in there this morning - just had new big delivery of frozen foods incl. bacon, pies, sausages, etc. Good range of other foodstuff too. Prices more reasonable than elsewhere in BC. Some info and location map here:

they also have a farcebook page: BanChangExpatMart.
