Guest Posted April 23, 2002 Report Share Posted April 23, 2002 Just been reading another board and came across this post about closing times etc I'll post the main bit for you to decide. Any Pattaya residents that can confirm this ?? "On the way home from Soi 8 a few nights ago shared a baht bus to Walking street with 4 bar girls at 2am. Asked where they wre going and they said Marine Disco. I say I though it closed at two but they claim its now open till 3:30 am. Another girl from Superbaby says after Marine closes the crowd goes to another place that goes till 6am (back in the Arab area I think but something could have been lost in the translation), like in the old days but I have'nt confirmed any of this yet." As I said not my post............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 23, 2002 Report Share Posted April 23, 2002 Hi, Just came back to sweden from BKK, was at "sunshine" til 2 am, then left to meet 2 girls at the disco infront of FOOD LANE in patpong. (4th floor i think) Stayed there til 5am, then left for the hotel. On our way to the hotel we went in to another disco for another beer, then after that to the hotel. Think i was at the hotel at 6 in the morning. I read alot about the closing times at the bars in swedish newspapers just before i went down there, but everything was like it used to be. take care. mano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilli13 Posted April 24, 2002 Report Share Posted April 24, 2002 there will always be a few places that manage to remain open after the official closing times, so I don't think this has anything to do with a changed 2am policy whatsoever!

Guest Posted April 24, 2002 Report Share Posted April 24, 2002 2am?..you got to be kidding! I got a room at Eastiny last X'mas. It was the same every nite. 3am getting really quite..then 4-4:30 music starts again and continue untill the morning...Go-go's rite, close but not bars, no way! I remember the same picture last September too. Leroy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 24, 2002 Report Share Posted April 24, 2002 I was in Pattaya in March. Stayed at Eastiny on Soi 8 and hung out around that area late in the evenings. Bars were "officially" closing at 2:00, which means the main lights go out. Some bars actually close, but many stay open using very minimal lighting. Bars along Soi 8 where there are lights from hotels, etc. stay open quite late - 3 or 4 am, maybe later. I bar fined a girl about 4 am at a bar right next to my hotel. Some bars serve drinks after 2 and others don't. Street vendors (food) do a brisk business after the 2 AM closing. They usually park themselves under street lights. You can park yourself close buy to get a view of BGs getting a snack. Good opportunities to pick up a late night snack for yourself too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 24, 2002 Report Share Posted April 24, 2002 The old picking up a bar girl at the street vendor trick. Works every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pattaya127 Posted April 24, 2002 Report Share Posted April 24, 2002 I doubt it, frankly. But will ask my Pattaya informants and report back to you. PS: could have been part of a Songkran festival leniency, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the disco in front of Food Lane in Patpong? Are you referring to the disco operated by the King's Group? (If so, I thought that was on the second story?) And where are these other discos??

Wiseone Posted April 25, 2002 Report Share Posted April 25, 2002 When I was in Pattaya last month the Marine shut at 02.20 (or as the police turn up) and everyone moved on to Freigling in Marine Plaza and I left at 04.00 with it still going strong. Freigling is a black building with no windows just next to the outdoor food areas and where the motorbike taxis park up. It is a decent size but is so full of off duty gogo girls, freelancers and hangers-on at that time that it is not a particularly good place to pick out girls and have a conversation.
