By the lack of response, I think "Sonnymall" will be flying solo to his Country Road pub too lol.

Hope he is not thinking of charging a fee for this service?

[Agent Sumo]

Country Road??

If he means the one on Soi Cowboy, I would die before I associated with any "expat" who goes there

[SoiBiker]

Country Road?

Take me home.

Be careful with spirits in that bar.

There is a tendency towards the lower end of the spectrum...personally I dont use it but if I did I'd stick to bottled beer.

[meom]

Yes their sangsom taste like lao khao mixed with diesel.

No wonder I lost most of the pool games.

It's not a go go but the girls outside are pretty aggressive for new customers.

Well that is funny.

I can't think of one TV member that would like to meet another. It is what it is and the TV lounge failed horribly because of this.

Many of us have become discerning regarding meeting members based upon experience.

We are also wary of bars promoted here for similar reason.

I'm wary of bars promoted here because people who post here might go to them.

Well they might if they hadn't read the thread a few hrs ago.

The concept of a Thaivisa Lounge may have failed horribly but the bar itself didn't, the Thaivisa Lounge being nothing more than an additional sign on the side of the long-established, and previously very successful, New Wave bar.

There was a short-lived business relationship between the owners of New Wave and the parsimonius Thaivisa owners who introduced as customers some of the kind of people that are frequently found here. Unsurprisingly, a number of them were asked by the management to leave and not to return.

After the expiration of the arrangement, New Wave removed the Thaivisa signage and continued until the end of last year when the landlord's excessive demand from for tripled rent persuaded NW's owners to look elsewhere for premises.

So you are basically saying the idea of the TV lounge concept failed horribly...

I always wondered what happened to that bar. I had this vision of people turning up with a passport and visa extension form filled only to see it was a bar

In the end all the bars in that soi shutdown when they ripped down the open air restaurants across the road.

New Wave was great in the old location before it was reduced to rubble. Always lively and some stunning promo girls but sadly full of buffoons playing pool all night, getting fleeced for drinks by the assembled dirtbags....could be funny to watch though....especially when some 'ten bob millionaire' on holiday got his bill to realise that the lasses he'd been buying drinks for all night, weren't going to be chipping in with a few baht, and had slipped off to find a new mug at a different pool table....

The new location never held up to the old one. I'd take either over the ghastly Country Road any day though.

New Wave would have done well to try and replicate what they had previously instead of the 'lounge bar' idea....

Us Spurs supporters are a discerning bunch.
