I was informed that a Russian or certainly East European Pub has opened in CM.

Go down Moon Mueang Soi 4 past UN Irish to first set of traffic lights.

Turn right and head north past the large Wat, then it's locate say 150 mtrs on left hand side of road.

A single shop house bar offering both meals and accommodation.

Don't know what to say, really. I hope that does not mean........

If this becomes the next Phuket, Koh Chang, Pattaya, etc.....I'm outta here.

Oh great, thanks, good news, just what we need, the Russian mafia moving in to Chiang Mai now! I ll be on my bike immediately, must get down there and encourage them......NOT!!

Do they have a music license?

Stroll on, there'll be jet-skis on the Ping and Africans selling ganja next!

Hard to believe many Russians would want to live in beachless Chiang Mai.

Gonna look out of place in Speedos

Yes that is correct, I heard about it the other day and certainly looks like THE RUSSIANS ARE COMING also met 4 other Russians who were on holiday in soi 2 the other night, since I had heard about the bar I asked if they were the same and they said no just on holiday so that is 2 lots of Russian reports in less than a week.

Maybe the new real estate agent knew something we did not LOL at least his wife will come in useful

DK

Paradise!

Do they serve borsch?

A Russian-themed shophouse and a few Russian tourists and its panic time for TV's CM contingent. Sheesh, you people scare easily. Wait till you find out what's under your beds....oops, pretend I didn't say that.

UN Irish Pub is on soi 4 now? When did they move?

Territorial expansion...bad news for chiangmai...I though the CHINESE ARE COMING...equally bad...

What exactly is wrong with Russians? Sounds like pure bigotry to me.

There is nothing wrong with Russians, there is something wrong with some peoples attitude

The people complaining in this thread are not complaining about single or a Russian couple traveling. They're referring to groups of young Russians who act the same ways they do in the South. If you have not seen it, go on holiday in Hua Hin, Phuket, etc and see what it's like. True, any group of travelers from one nation with an intent to party is bad enough, but I have seen more than enough examples to trust this stereotype, despite knowing some Russian families living in CM.

Thats cos your German very similar so makes sense your Ok with them. (not to mention your married to one

...well,DK...there is nothing wrong with Russians...they just love to party while on vacation....who doesn't ??!!

...them moving in,is another thing...

Great! A Russian disco next.

If Russians pour in here like they have in Pattaya and Phuket, I'm also out of here. Which is a shame because I have not been here long and thought I found a place to avoid them.

I thought its groups of English youth with the bad rap all over Europe. Larger lout stag n hen do's ruining all the once peaceful romantic Eastern European historic cities. Spain etc med beaches sufferring longer. Mostly Brit or Aussy , or another falang making trouble in Asia for decade + already. Don't know what all the fuss is about. As it is with the Brits n Aussies mostly the 2 week piss up brigades will just stick to the beaches and not be bothered to venture up hear. The ones that do come are likely to be just a little more civilised/ less extreme. Where there's booze you always have chance to get a drunk idiot or few.

According to Greenside's Map of CM the Irish Pub is on Moonmeuang Soi 4.

^^ UN is on Thanon Rathwithi; the soi you're talking about is probably the little one running up from the Kafe.

A bit like those who rant at others when given pointers on their website?

privet devushkas!

i see there is a quite a big new outdoor resturant and bar,in that soi,anyone one tried it.

Having never experienced dear Ivan, Egor and his comrades what can one expect if they start arriving in droves?

On a side note I found it funny a few months back when flying cnx from bkk and the two English gents behind me mistook me for a Russian and said this is a bad sign of things to come.
