Best Bar to Watch Rugby

[somo]

Gotta be in Bangkok Sat 12th Nov but desperate to watch the England v South Africa rugby that night.

Staying in Soi 10 so any bars near there that also love rugby over football?

Thanks

There is a bar on soi 8, sorry forgot the name, others will know I am sure. About 50 mtrs down on the left, always a good bet for rugby. That's probably your nearest. Loads of other places I am sure e.g. Brahmans on soi 23 , Black Swan on 19, you will have plenty of choice.

The place on soi 8 might even be called the soi 8 bar, or something like that.

I think you mean the Kiwi Bar.

The Sportsman on Soi 13.

 

Soi 13 is practically opposite Soi 10.

Thanks guys.

Will check them out.

 Soi 8 (owned by a Kiwi at that time) was renamed Kiwi Bar when it got its new non-Kiwi owners, who also have an almost monopoly on bar/clubs in the area.

Soi 7/1 opposite the wood bar is an Australian bar the has rugby on all the time

[lungnorm]

The Irish pub in Nana

[cracker1]

Kiwi Bar Soi 8 Sukhumvit.

[likeke]

Hanrahan's Soi 4, an Irish pub. Many TVs. I have watched many sports events there.

Yes Sportsbar on Soi 13 is a good place to watch the game!

[JaiLai]

What time is it on?

[dddave]

Actually, the majority of Sukhumvit bars and pubs will probably have the Rugby on..at least on one TV.  "The Game" on Suk.,, between Soi's 7 & 9 under the Nana BTS comes to mind as does Gullivers on Soi 5.

  This is the answer to every sports question that begins with: "Best bar to watch.......?"

Without doubt The Clubhouse. They sponsor The Southerners rugby teams who regularly go there to watch the games.

Sounds good but where is it?

Hopefully these places have multiple TVs as just notice England v SA is on at the same time as Scotland v Aus.

Its on Sukhumvit 23 somo. About 150 metres down from Cowboy on the same side. Two floors, 2 big screens and multiple TVs. Facebook page indicates they are showing both games. (One on each big screen I would imagine with some of the TVs showing the other game).

Thank you. It's always nice to watch with a bunch of rugby fans. If memory serves me well there used to be some nice bars and classy ladies in soi 23. The Rembrandt and the like. Bit out of touch nowadays (married a long time ago!) but good times they were.

 

edit Think it was soi 33 but close enough:)

Rugby???? If you like games with very little skill, you picked the right one.

went in this place last week to watch advertised rugby, the quality of the signal/picture was awful and kept freezing - very frustrating when a bar advertises that they show sport then the quality is shocking, other bars have decent tv reception so why not here?

 

also there were people wanting to watch rugby but the thai bar manager refused to change a screen showing motorcycling, which no one was watching and had thai commentary(!), to show the rugby... totally inflexible management.

 

plenty of better places nearby
