Good Sukumvit Pub/Bar To Watch Euro Football?

[Bobinyangdor]

Hi.. I'm a Brit arriving bkk Tues 19th june and wondered if anyone can recommend a good Brit pub/bar in the Sukumvit area where the Ukraine vs England match will be shown?

I know it starts at 1.45 am Thai time but i will not be ready to sleep as my internal clock will still be set to 5.45 am (UK time)..

Thanks in advance..

Oops that should read 5.45 PM...

Ok shoulda done a better search of other posts..

So for anyone else looking it sounds like GULLIVERS Sukhimvit Soi 5 and SPORT CORNER Soi 20 are worth checking out..

Cheers

The alley between Soi 5/7 the bar there is reportedly open late and showing footy.

Best of luck to the home team.

There's a very clean pool hall close to the corner of Sukhumvit and Soi 7 (on the right-hand side of the street)...Decent priced drinks, pretty women, pool tables, good music, and sports played on the big screen regularly.

I'm sorry of I'm not meant to dredge this oldish thread up but...

Is there really somewhere in that area where one can watch football starting at 3am?

There's a game on tonight and I'm not sure if it's on my hotel television. There are so many channels and it's a nightmare looking through them all. Anyway, as I'm on holiday, I wouldn't mind going out and watching it in a bar.

It just seems that everything closes at 2am. Gulliver's certainly isn't open.

Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

When I lived there, in those situations I went to a nightclub. Climax showed some matches late, as did Shock 39.

Thank you. I'll find out where those places are. I'm guessing not walking distance from that end of Sukhumvit.

So now I realise what a novice I am. No idea how to get around Bangkok in the small hours of the evening. Back of a motorbike? Taxi? How to avoid getting ripped off? Can I just get in a taxi and usually expect then to go by the meter?

OK. Climax is close to me. So I won't bother with taxis etc. So the deal in Bangkok seems to be that bars close at 2 but clubs are allowed to stay open late? I hadn't realised that.

I'm guessing it's going to be expensive. Can anyone quickly tell me how much to get in and how much for a beer? Thanks.

Club Climax is on Soi 11, north of Sukhumvit, on the right hand side. You will walk though a parking structure, then off to your right is the entrance to the club.

As for being a novice, you sure come across as one regarding transportation. I don't know your location, but probably the back of a motorcycle taxi would be the best way to get there if you are relatively far from Soi 11. I would say that if you are between Soi 4 and Soi 19, you could very easily walk there.

It amazes me that people don't read the thread.

I will repeat....there is a bar in tge shortcut between soi 5 and 7 etc etc....
