bkkjames Posted February 6, 2009 Author Share Posted February 6, 2009 Is the "Huntsman" actually inside the Landmark or just in the vicinity? Yes, in the basement level. Sounds good to me, however, maybe a lttle more info. for those who are not familiar with that area of Bkk.Entertainment? Drink prices? Ambience? All good to go? Map for those who might feel like coming but don't know where the Landmark is? Thanx James. The Huntsman - Basement Level - The Landmark Hotel, next to the BTS at NANA. Though negotiations are still under way , this is what their Marketing Director first proposed... we have a double Happy Hour on both food and drinks from 3-9pm everyday. Our Happy Hour on drinks is Buy 1 Get 1 Free on local draught beers/bottles, wines, cocktails and spirits. During this period we also have a discounted food menu with prices starting from 95 baht. From 9pm we will also have Live music from our excellent resident band Sweet Inspiration until 1am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats the age group of peoples meeting up, its not over 60s is it? -Sean Despite certain poster's screen-names, for the most part we are 25-40 I would guess, but if Thithi comes and brings along her groupies and gf's, the average age will come down a bit. Anyways Sean, you have something against senior citizens mate? You will be one someday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thithi Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 hahah jamies i thought u r one of the senior citizens no? If I go there, can you change the pissup event name to be... Thithi's Birthday Piss-up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundman Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Thai Visa has a wide demographic of members, and in past functions, there have been people from ages 20 - 70 attend, from all sorts of different backgrounds, nationalities. All are welcome. Always good fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfchandler Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 (edited) Huntsman has three different kinds of seating configurations, if I recall correctly. 1. a rectangular central bar-tending area ringed by bar stools. 2. upholstered booths sized to accommodate 4 or 6 around the perimeter walls. and 3. loose and moveable/arrangeable tables in between 1 and 2..., which would seem to fit best for accommodating any larger groups of folks. In general, the Huntsman Pub is a very comfortable and low-key place for dining and drinking, and the Filipino band that's permanently stationed there serves up a good evening of mostly pop and mainstream farang hit songs. Though without their Happy Hour specials or any other special accommodation, an evening of serious drinking at the Huntsman gets to be a bit pricey because the pub is still part of the rather pricey Landmark Hotel. They've been running/advertising the regular Happy Hour specials for quite some time. But the mention above about the 2-for-1 Jack Daniels bottles and glasses (24/7) is one I've not heard of or seen advertised by them before.

The Marketing Director said in a PM that he would allow us to be grouped together. As for costs of drinks, they are in line with prices we experienced at the last P-Up before Christmas. As for renaming Thithi's Birthday, well, we'll have to vote on that at the event proper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
