Second road is tough enough as it is. Don't think Beach road could use more traffic. The underground parking is already challenging at weekends and now that the new, enclosed motorbike parking is on the same level as the car park (and taking up maybe 50 car park spots) with Foodland in the former bottom basement motorbike parking, it can only get worse.

Don't think Beach road could use more traffic.It's a 24 hour supermarket which makes it the only one in Central Pattaya. It's a fantastic convenient option for night owls.Sent from my iPhone using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah right.......I rode automatically to the 'old' motorbike parking and almost ended up inside Foodland. Some grumpy security guard said "pai pai!!" and i couldn't find the 'new' motorbike parking. If that's the entire Foodland......the old motorbike parking + the 10 car-park places on that level....it'll be nothing more than a Tesco Express Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Twas already bad enough. A Tesco Express would easily hold all that I buy at Foodland. They can save a lot of space by cutting out some of the excess they have at Klang. This branch may be even more farang-oriented. But I'm just speculating--I await the reports until I get down there myself. This could really convenient--hit the nearby go-gos then do the shopping.

Big signage in both Thai and (correct) English pointing to the new motorbike parking that has actually been in the 'new' location for the best part of 2 months already. I take it that after missing the large motorbike car park and signage, you raced off back home to post your disgust? 6 hours ago, joepattaya1961 said: If that's the entire Foodland......the old motorbike parking + the 10 car-park places on that level....it'll be nothing more than a Tesco Express Hmmm.... 50 minutes ago, Pattaya46 said: Foodland @ Royal Garden, open 24/24, with Took Lae Dee restaurant on the left side (2nd pic) I really love it when people run their mouths make comments before going anywhere near a place.

balo Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Just had a look inside. Foodland prices about the same as Friendship, but the selection is not the same , I also think Foodland in Pattaya Klang has a bigger selection than this branch. For me the biggest attraction is a 24 hour restaurant only 15 minutes away from my place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lumbini Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Was at the opening today a small selection of things compared to other locations but the fact that it is in that location and open 24/7 will be nice option for many Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great for their pork ribs and cheese smokies. I was disappointed in both the meat and bakery section. The meat section is called Butchers Choice and has only deli meats. There is no butcher with fresh meats, only a small prepackaged section brought over from the Klang store. Same for bakery. I could only find half the items I get at Klang. Hopefully this will improve in time. If you are familiar with the Tesco Express behind Numchai then you will be happy or disappointed with this new store. If you are a fan of Took Lae Dee then you will be happy as this new restaurant is bigger and more inviting. For me, I will continue to shop at Klang.

I did my grocery shopping there at 3 am this morning. Everything I needed was there. I also ate at Took Lae Dee. Saying the restaurant is bigger than Klang is an understatement. It's huge and a real restaurant with many tables. They still have a line of stools for people who enjoy touching elbows with other diners. I won't be going to Klang. This is my new late night supermarket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morrobay Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 For what its worth : This store is very comparable ( floor plan / size) to the Foodland in Bangkok @ Silom/Sala Dang. Up a very narrow ally ,same side Bkk Christian Hospital Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
