mallmagician Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 I think they are due reopen at the weekend.i.e. Friday. But it depends if they can get it serviceable by then. Do a search on facebook for bamboo bar, and you can get info about the refurb and reopening on their fb page.

Pikey Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 The owner of the Bamboo Bar got ...... over by the greedy landlord after finishing renovations, so, like the good bloke he is, he "unrenovated" it with a sledge hammer and is moving to new premises up the road a bit. Cheers, Pikey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HullyGully Posted March 30, 2013 Author Share Posted March 30, 2013 The Bamboo Bar closed as indicated above The new Bar is due to open mid April and is located round the corner oposite 7/11 I understand the new name will be 'THE WHAT BAR' The delay in opening is due to setting up the bar and owner and his wife taking a short holiday Lets support the new 'WHAT BAR' If anyone knows a firm opening dated please advise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaleySabai Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Why not..... 'Yo, What's-Up Bar'?.....its unbelievable how people get torched by landlords here, I have heard of this happening numerous times, even where the greed-crazed clown takes over the establishment and runs it himself..... usually into the ground.

mickmac Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 I spoke to Jools about it the other day, apparently the Landlord had seen the improvements that had been made, and so decided that he would put the rent up. Understandable if he had paid for the improvements, but he hadn't. Jooles and his wife had paid for everything. So fair play to him for leaving the bar the way he found it. Good luck with the new place when it opens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Photo may be handy if any other landlords, in the future decide up the rent after the operator puts in thousands of baht in removations. "GREEDY LANDLORDS....... Come on Down.......

Throatwobbler Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Just a thought. had Jules spooken to his landlord before he did the rennovations? Anyway I will go and support his new place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HullyGully Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 My understanding was Joolz had talked to the landlord and agreed an increase in the rent. In fact the landlord carried out most of the renovation. Once the new build had been completed the games began Screwing around with charges for electricity etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Throatwobbler Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Ok sounds like the landlord was being an arse and got what he deserved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
