    Pattaya Nightlife

    Pattaya Nightlife – The most famous entertainment spot in the world

    The nightlife in Pattaya is sectioned in different parts of the city, which encompasses most of the city venues.  Setting the nightlife aside, Pattaya also has some of the best restaurants in Thailand serving international cuisines of every variety.  The beach activities are very fun including boat rides out to the islands, scuba diving, snorkeling, parasailing, jet skiing, and more.  So while the devil in you exists at night, the family adventurer will come out during the day. This page is more about satisfying the curiosity of the devil inside you. Go to this page for details about Bangkok Nightlife.

    Jomtien Beach

    Pattaya has two different communities, Pattaya proper, and Jomtien Beach.  Both have bars, go-go bars, gentlemen clubs, and massage places.  But, Jomtien Beach is a little quieter with less aggressive girls, smaller bars, and loads of gentlemen clubs.  For more details about Jomtien Beach Nightlife – I have another website dedicated to the Jomtien Beach Nightlife.

    Pattaya Walking Street – Pattaya Nightlife

    Walking Street is the most famous area for entertainment in Pattaya.  You can find most everything on Walking Street.  During the day, it is a regular street with cars, motorbikes, and taxis traveling on the street bringing supplies to the various restaurants and bars. The day-time Walking Street looks rather benign and boring. Then, at night, the road is blocked at both ends and only pedestrians are allowed.  The neon lights come on and the street is transformed into an entertainment paradise.

    Some of the bars are consistent and stay in business year after year.  Many of the locations are frequently changing owners and every new owner has their own name and style they want to apply.  So if you visit Walking Street often, (monthly or annually) you will see changes and different bars from the last time you visited.

    As you walk down the street, you’ll be entertained by street performers, girls clamoring to get you into their bar, young girls selling flowers, beggars asking for money, girls also walking the street looking for customers (free-lancers not associated with any bar), and lady boys also tugging at you for your attention.

    Take a trip down the small streets to find some very interesting places for entertainment. You’ll find the drinks at the bars on Walking Street more expensive, and the girls also want more money.

    Soi Buakhao

    Soi Buakhao is a close runner up to Walking Street.  The bars and massage places in this area have been enhancing their signage and quality of their venues.  If Walking Street seems too crowded or too crazy, ask a tuk-tuk to take you to Soi Buakhao.  Soi Buakhao is a street running north-south between South Pattaya Road (Pattaya Tai) to Central Pattaya Road (Pattaya Klang). Wander around these establishments and you’ll find a nice place to drink and girls to your liking.  The drink prices are less and the girls demand less money compared to Walking Street.

    Soi Buakhao has everything you may need including hotels, restaurants, and markets in addition to the bars and massage shops.  This area has bars, go-go bars, soapy massage and gentlemen’s clubs.  Almost a city within the center of Pattaya.

    Soi 6 Pattaya

    Soi 6

    Soi 6 is a street that intersects with Beach road.  This street has also been developing and changing to attract the Walking Street crowd.  For some reason, this is a popular street for police raids.  The police will come in to look for underage girls, drugs and people under the influence of drugs.  They usually don’t bother the foreigners unless the foreigner is seen doing drugs.  This street is mostly populated with bars and go-go bars.  Plus, an unbelievable number of girls and lady boys are found on Soi 6.

    The fun never stops on Soi 6, every night something new lightens up the night.  There are a couple of restaurants on Soi 6 in case you get hungry for some food.

     

    Soi 7 and 8

    Without question, Pattaya Walking Street is the most entertaining place in Thailand and maybe the World.  With the many bars, restaurants, street performers, holiday activities, and beautiful Thai girls, there is always something happening on Pattaya Walking Street.

    During the day, the street is a normal street, a continuation of Beach Road.  With lots of congestion from trucks delivering supplies and restocking the bars and restaurants for the next night of fun.  You can drive on this portion of the street during the day, but at night, all traffic is blocked and only walking is permitted.

    Pattaya Walking street begins at the south end of Beach road and continues to the Pattaya marina at the other end.  During the day, it is rather benign, but at night, all the neon lights and signs light up the night and creates a mood of fun and adventure.  Just walking from one end to the other and back will provide you many eye fulls of interesting and memorable things to see.

    Pattaya Bars

    There are three types of bars you will find on Pattaya Walking Street;  Full service bars, Bar Girl bars, and Go-Go bars.

    The full service bars are more about entertainment with live music, good drinks, billiards, and having a fun atmosphere.  My favorite bars on Walking Street include Black and White bar, Lucifer, and Rolling Stone 2.  The Black and White bar is geared towards hip-hop and techno music and attracts that age group.  Lucifer has either a Jazz or Blues band playing in the front, and the back section usually has hip-hop music playing.  Rolling Stone 2 is all rock and roll usually with a live band.

    The Bar Girl bars also serve a full line of beer, wine and liquor, and have many many girls to help entertain you, play snooker with you (be careful, they are very good players), and hopefully go back to your hotel with you.  These girls are fun, clean, and will show you a great time.  These bars generally have lower bar fines and are more flexible with the girls.

    The Blues Factory, located on Soi Lucky Star just off Walking Street, is a great place for booze and great live Blues, R&B, and Rock music.  One of the best live music places in Pattaya.  The more sleezy bars with more erotic girls are found on the small streets that shoot off from the main street.  Explore the bars on these streets and you may get your desires satisfied quickly.  Take a bit of tip money with you as there is plenty to do with many girls who will be looking for a tip for their services or performance.

    Go-Go Bars

    Pattaya Go-Go Bars

    Go-Go bars seem to all look the same to me.  They all have nearly naked girls dancing on a stage with numbers attached so you can easily choose a girl to have fun with.  Most of them are pretty boring, with the exception of the mostly naked girls dancing, walking around, and sitting on your lap.  The bar fines are usually much higher to take one of these girls out with your.  The girls seem to be much younger that work the Go-Go bars.

    One exception to the typical boring Go-Go bar is Angel Witch, which is found on Soi 15 from Walking Street.  This place is the most entertaining as far as naked girls performing a show.  You don’t see the typical pole dancing here.  Each show included several girls performing a choreographed routine.  The scantly robed costumes come off quickly, and the dancing and show is very fun.  A much higher class place which does not have a cover charge, but the drinks are a little expensive.  A fun place to go to and a “must see” when going to Walking Street.

    Pattaya Walking Street Restaurants

    I have not been too impressed with the restaurants on Walking Street.  The exception is the two seafood restaurants, both serve great food.  There are a couple of Italian restaurants that are not bad, but not great, the the steak restaurant down at the end towards the marina is a “must avoid”.  Check out my page about Pattaya Restaurants.
