Popular Post scottishjohn Posted March 14, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted March 14, 2014 I am sitting in the new 'Welcome Inn' on the site of the OLD "Olde Bell" Usual disclaimers etc regarding connections; Just to say it is enjoying a welcome 'soft opening' and is much easier to spot than before, given its much more obvious frontage! Let's wish Boom & Andy all the best with this new venture in CM 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thighlander Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Please let me know if they have Happy Hour(s). Lotus just lowered their prices on Tiger Yai to 55 THB, and they've had the born on 18-02-2014 for about two weeks. I wish them good luck, but I'm not going to any bar unless i know it's fresh and cold. Until I see a lot of improvement LK is for currency exchange and MM is for the dermatologist/dentist.

I'm sure it's not a franchise but either way a franchise is owned by the franchisee. I don't know if there are any franchised pubs in Thailand but if there are, they would probably be Thai owned.

jonwilly Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Dave's photo suggests the bar will be open front and so not aircon. Wonder what the menu will be, same as Peder did, which was good or new ideas ? john Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinnieTheKhwai Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Dave's photo suggests the bar will be open front and so not aircon. Oh, so then it can't ever be a pub. (As I was informed in the other topic. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saan Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 No doubt 'Dave' will provide photos, but the frontage is different and I am told the 'yellow box' (ATM) will go idc. Let's give the place a try Diffidently give it try.But the box going wishful thanking. No chance that's money for the landlord. I think the yellow box's lease runs out in a few months and then it will go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to get out of the bar scene and Chiang Mai and explore Thailand to understand names that Thais give to each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any "Red" animal would be ok in Chiang Mai I guess. Except for "The Red Buffalo". That would be a name that draws attention...
