Pattaya Nightlife News and Reviews

Secrets on Soi 14 become one of the Scooters chain of bars on 30th March 2019.

Meanwhile the old Mandarin GoGo on the corner of Walking Street and Soi 14 now has a banner proclaiming that it will soon become Rich A-GoGo.

I popped into Walking Street last night, it was very quiet.

Walking down soi 14 i noticed the Secrets Bar has closed but the Hotel was still open. The Miami Complex was also shut.

Started in The Lighthouse , quiet but a lot of lovely Girls on show. 7 topless and 2 Naked, Dancers. The music was very good (no hip hop) which seems to be taking over in a lot of Bars even had it in the Sapphire club on Friday. My favourite Girl was back, Som, have not seen her since before christmas. She's about 4ft 8 in tall but with a great figure.

Stayed for 1 beer and moved on to the Panda Club , which was busy without being overcrowded. No Draft Beer I don't kn. why. Managed to win 5 games of Connect 4, even managed to beat the waitress, who never loses. She fell for an easy trap after a few moves, she soon got her own back.

There was a pretty young Girl with Big Tit's and a lovely arse, never seen her before, she was easy to beat, must be new. I was sitting near the Door where all the titty girls (topless Dancers) were sitting waiting for their turn on the Stage. There were around 20 of them all with big tits. The Music was again Good, ie no hip hop. There was another Cabaret, this time it was uptempo dancing from south America, not to bad.

Stayed for 1 Drink and moved onto the Shark Club which was fairly busy. I sat with Del and Ray, 2 small and very cute girls. Lots of young Girls with there Tit's out on this visit. It varies wildly but always very attractive young Girls. Del and Ray both had there very lovely little Tit's on show. No idea what there names really are,Del Ray is a Hotel. The Girls on the poles were very good, always worth watching. again the music was Hip Hop less so very good.

had 1 Beer and headed home, had a cheese and Sausage toastie from 7/11 for supper, lovely, and no indigestion that i get from a Burger.

All foreign visitors to Thailand are required to report their whereabouts to the local police station or immigration every time they change location. All hotels, landlords and residential house owners are similarly required to register their guests.

The Thai News Agency has reported that Thai Immigration are proposing much stiffer penalties for failing to report foreigners staying at addresses in Thailand.

New penalties will see fines of 10,000 baht levied for the failure to report visitors.

The penalties will be even stiffer for hotels and other establishments who accommodate foreign workers with jail terms of up to 5 years and fines of 100,000 baht for failing to report.

In addition stiffer penalties are promised for airlines and individuals who permit individuals to board planes and enter Thailand without either onward tickets or appropriate visas. this seems to be a a response to the case of the Saudi woman who fled her country because of an enforced marriage.

The committee has been working on eleven main changes to immigration rules and penalties since January. It was reported separately that thw implementation of the new rules is expected after Songkran on April 22nd.

Update: Ominous

27th March 2019. See article from forum.thaivisa.com

Proposals for a new Immigration Act have been presented to a ministerial committee.

Chief Lt-Gen Surachate Hakparn (aka Big Joke) outlined what it would mean to visitors and expatriates in Thailand. He said

Thailand was the third most visited country in the world and while not a direct target for criminals was a place where those up to no good would hide out under the guise of being tourists.

He suggested that one of the best ways to solve this problem was to ensure that hotel and condo owners report the whereabouts of foreigners. He went so far as to specifically mention people of color and South Africans as a problem.

Better screening of potential visitors to Thailand is also being proposed in the new regulations. This includes use of the Advanced Passenger Processing System (APPS). The introduction of Artificial Intelligence that includes ten finger fingerprinting and iris recognition technology would also be employed.

Channel 7 said that in the past warnings to people such as hotel owners and condo owners for failing to report foreigners in their properties would now be replaced by fines.

There are also changes to business visas and extensions of stay based on people who have children or who are married to Thais. Exactly what these are - or indeed if they are anything new that has not already been reported - remains to be seen.

Channel 7 also mentioned a problem of agents handling visa extensions and the issue of having 800,000 baht in the bank.

Popped into walking Street on Friday night, it was busy without being overcrowded.

Started in the Sapphire Club which was fairly full, usual array of beautiful Arses on Show, some lovely Tit's in the first group of Girls. A group of young Farangs came in and were ringing the bell to buy all the Girls on Stage a drink.

Stayed to watch all the Girls round and the first group again and headed up soi Diamond, past the Diamond club which had the Door closed with. security sitting outside, as usual they didn't invite me in, what goes on in their?

Passed into the new A-go-go, I'm trying to think of something NICE about it but it's very small, the Dwarves have been back making bench seating, they did a better job than in Harem and Tee-Rak but still too small. The Coyote Dancers were from the second division, there was one Girl who wasn't overweight, one very big Girl, if she sat on your face you'd need a snorkel.

The 6 Bikini Dancers were better, I'm not sure if they removed their Tops as my arse was protesting about the seats and I had to leave. Tiger Draft good at 69b, music was ok.

Didn't finish my Beer and headed for Happy , which was very busy as Usual. The extension into the old Beach Club site has been completed with a bar at the end and a stage running the length of the of extension,

There were some very pretty Coyote Dancers in Knickers and Small t-shirts. The Showgirls came on Twice while I was there, Stripping down to Nothing, even the Great Dancer Gai she showed us her new Tit's and her old Pussy. I was sitting by the exit to the Stage about 2 feet wide and Gai did her Trick of Straddling the Gap with her legs wide apart bouncing up and down on the counter, a very good trick, not many people could do it. I sat with usual Girls Bang and Nok, very noisy, Nok had a new hairstyle which suited her better.

Stayed for 1 Draft Beer and headed home.

Happy A-GoGo opened its new extension on 15th March. This new space was previously Beach Club A-GoGo.

I popped into Walking Street on Friday Night, it was busy without being overcrowded.

Started in Peppermint which was very Quiet until 10 pm when it filled up. Not a lot of Talent on show, just the usual Girls who have been there for years, but the music and the Beer is very good.

Stayed for a couple of Draft Beers and left for Living Dolls. They now have Draft Chang for 78b. The Girls were very nice in bikini top and G-string and 6 Topless. The Girls were all young and attractive, far superior to Peppermint, but I didn't like the Music. 4 young English guys came in and sat in front of me, they were having a great time with Girls sitting on there Laps, they even bought the Girls Drinks which is very unusual for young Farangs, I saw them again on my way home standing outside 7/11 drinking Beer.

I popped into Baccara next which was very busy but as I came in about 20 people walked out so i managed to get a seat at the Stage. The usual array of silicone on show, some of the largest Tit's are on show upstairs but luckily they change over at midnight ,and you get to see them all downstairs. There were some very attractive Coyote Dancers in orange, All the fat ones seem to have gone. Had one Beer and headed home,

The Thai general election will affect the two weekends of 16th-17th and 23rd-24th March> Voting for out of towners will take pplace on the first weekend and the main event is on the second.

Bars are closed from 6pm on Saturday and nominally all of Sunday, but bars generally seem to open mid evening on Sunday.

And thanks to Dave who reports that for example the Happy Group gogos will be closed on Saturday but are hoping to open on Sunday.

A new bar opened on Soi 6 on the 5th March. It takes over one of the units previously occupied by the gogo, Passion Dance Club. The other unit is a now a bar called Seduction.

Popped into Walking Street last night, it was extremely busy, very crowded.

Started in the Sapphire Club which wasn't that busy, the usual array of beautiful Girls and lovely legs and arses. Sugar Daddy was in and I put 50 Baht inside her Knickers, she has a lovely smile. Chelsea was in sitting on her own on the other side of the Stage. Mai was in, she's lost weight. She used to be Chubby but nice and slim now, she has a large pair of natural Tit's that are like Torpedoes, wouldn't want to bump into her down a dark street. 3 English Guys in their 40's came and sat next to me and started smoking, which really pisses me off.

Stayed to watch all the Girls Dance and left for Happy, which was very busy, full of Punters and Girls. Sat with Bang and Mae, haven't seen them for 6 weeks. Lot of lovely Girls there, not as good as the Sapphire Club where they wear sexy Clothes, but some cute Coyote Dancers. The place was full to the Rafters, when I left there were 10 punters Queuing to get in. The location of the new bar means the Waiters need a Taxibike to get the Drinks.

The Show Girls came on and stripped down to nothing. Nok came over and was pushing her Pussy at me, so I Stuck a 100b note between her pussy Lips then Me came over and I put a 100b between the cheeks of her very lovely arse. It was mostly Farang Punters in Happy, two young English Guys came and sat next to me and Started Smoking. I wish they'd stop this smoking in a-go-go's, they lasted 11 hours on the plane without smoking, I'm sure they could last half an hour without this disgusting habit.

Stayed for 1 Beer and headed with difficulty through the crowds to the Shark Club which was also very busy. None of my usual Girls were in But Nong from Beach Club and a Girl with Very Big Tit's from Happy came over for a Drink. There was a very cute Girl who had a Fan and she kept pointing her Pussy at me and Fanning her Fanny. The show Girls were on form with their Ballet on the Poles, Two very attractive Girls came round trying to sell Tequila, I hate this practice, stayed for 1 Beer and headed hom.

Nice has opened on Soi Diamond on 28th February. It is a smal GoGo in the venue that was previously Twenty Eight and before that Only O.

Ishi reports the bar has a 45 Baht draft beer and that lady drinks are 180 Baht for 'models' and are otherwise 160 Baht.

There are now 80 bars claiming to be GoGos open around Pattaya.

Seduction bar opened on Soi 6 on 24th February. It is an open bar at the venue that was previously Passion Dance Club towards the Beach Road end of Soi 6.

See location N69 on Ishi's Soi 6 Map

Meanwhile Phoenix Bar opened on Soi LK Metro on 22nd February. Itis located near Devil's Den.

I popped out to walking Street for a few Beers Last night, it was not very busy.

I started in the Light House , well I think it was the Lighthouse. The Waitress who served me was from Bliss, previously Sweethearts and Private Dancer. When I looked at the Stage, all the Dancers were from Bliss. They were even wearing the same all over black fishnet body stocking. I was confused for a couple of minutes, Kik the Waitress (another new name) said Bliss no good.

There were a mixture of nude, topless and bottomless Dancers, most from Bliss. The best one was totally naked and put on a very good show with the girl next to her. There were 10 punters in but I was the only one spending any money as usual. I gave the 3 best looking Girls a 100 b.

Then a young English Guy came in with a Thai Bird and was sitting next to me. He told her to Give the very attractive Naked Bird some Money. It looked like a 100b but the Dancer pushed it away, then she agreed to take it and the Man about 40 lay down on the Stage between the Dancers legs and she pissed on his Face. He loved it, he got up with some difficulty wiping his face and smiling.

Had a couple of Draft Beers and passed into Fahrenheit , I was lucky Lek was not in, the Waitress tried to tell me where she was but I didn't understand what she was saying.

There were 3 Groups of 20 Girls, one in white and Black Coyote, one in white and yellow Coyote, and the third group in Black Bikini. The Girls removing their tops after a few minutes. There were some very cute young Girls with lovely natural Tits. I only saw 2 or 3 Girls with Silicone enhancement and the natural ones were so much better. It was the best group of Topless Dancers I have seen and they did not put their Tops back on when they left the Stage either, which was really nice. The Coyote Dancers were also very attractive,

A Farang came in with 4 Girls and was sitting in front of me to my right, the Girls were giving him a really good going over. The Girl nearest to me was a little Chubby but attractive and she was well gone Drinking San Miguel. She was up dancing in the Aisles, very entertaining.

There was a young Chinaman sitting on my right, he had a string of Girls coming up to him but none of them got a drink out of him. I sat with a slim attractive Coyote Dancer, I had seen her before but could not remember where. Bumped into Viking, he's got even Bigger, Stayed to see the Topless Dancers round again, all the Girls Danced for 20 mins and then went home.

A very entertaining evening.

Popped into Walking Street on Saturday Evening, it was very busy.

Started in the Sapphire club which was full with Girls and Punters. The usual array of lovely Girls on show. I had a pint of Draft Tiger which was very nice, yet I don't like Bottled Tiger Beer.

An English Guy sitting next to me was knocking back the San Miguel's, he had 5 in an hour. How do these people do it? (why do they do it)? I can't drink that many in a whole evening.

I sat there on my own for an hour as my usual Girls were not in, so it looked like a cheap visit. Then I got set upon by 3 lovely Girls, a Topless Dancer with Big Knockers Called Goy, a very cute small Girl called G, I didn't really want to buy her a drink as she has Chelsea tattooed on her very ample thigh (I'm a Spurs man), and a tall girl called Sa, who was very good at massage.

Stayed for another half an hour and left for Happy . The Coyote Dancers were on the Stage when I entered, they were wearing Rah Rah Skirts and a G-String, there were some very cute Girls. They were followed by the Bikini Dancers, some attractive Girls, 2 of them with Tit's out. There was no show while I was there although there were 7 showgirls present. Maybe I missed it?

I stayed for 1 Draft Beer and headed for Soi 15. Popped into the Shark Club which was fairly quiet. Apple and her sister Ray were back. Apple had lost weight and looked much better, she said she'd been running. The Girls were dressed in traditional coloured Coyote outfits not very Sexy, apart from the showgirls who were in Bikini's, which suited the Girls much more.

The Girls got some food it was small doughy Balls in a spicy sauce, I didn't like them much but they were knocking them back. Stayed for 1 Draft Beer and headed home about 1-15 am,

Nature Bar on Soi 6 has put up its shutters for reasons not yet apparent.

The long running 'fun on the couches' bar has also gone dark, but it seems that this is down to renovations

My Friend You is S12 and "Nature Bar" is S50 on Ishi's Soi 6 map .

Mandarin A-GoGo on Walking Street has announced that it will merge into Bypass , also on Walking Street, on 18th January.

Meanwhile the upstairs A-GoGo on the upper floor of the Walking Street end of Soi Diamond is set to re-open as The Catwalk A-GoGo . The bar was previously Overmind, and before that Shark.

Update:

Tee Rak A-GoGo is now taking shape on the corner of Walking Street and Soi Diamond. The name means 'darling' in Thai. (Although Thai girls often joke say 'darkling' which means something more like monkey's arse).

Update:

And indeed Mandarin closed on the appointed day. So there are now 78 GoGos operating around Pattaya.

Popped out to Walking street last night it was fairly busy.

I started in Peppermint which just over half full. Some young and cute Girls as usual. I sat with a lovely young Girl with a wonderful face and Smile, I'd seen her before but not for several months. It livened up about half past Ten when a group of Farangs came in and started throwing baskets of ping pong Balls around. Only 3 topless Girls and no showgirls.

Stayed for 2 Draft Beers and moved on to Baccara , which was full as usual. It's always a cheap drink in there as the Girls are interested in the free spending Asians. Lots of Attractive Girls with Large Silicone Tits but no young Girls apart from 6 Coyote Dancers, but they were all on the Fat side. No show Girls while I was there for an hour.

Had a Draft Beer and moved on to the Shark Club . This was very quiet, full of punters but no atmosphere. There was the Usual Asian guy playing paper.,rock, scissors. He bought 10 shots for 900b and put a 100b under each one. He was playing with 3 Girls, so whoever lost got the Shot and a 100, What a mug. None of my Birds were in so I had another cheap visit, had one Draft Beer and headed home.

A very Dull evening, or was I just not in the mood?

Secrets hostess bar on Soi 14 is set to close in March 2019. It will then be reworked as one of the chain of Scooters Bars. The Hotel and restaurant will remain as Secrets.

Secrets has been influential in Pattaya since it opened in 2006. In particular its forum was one of the major sources of Pattaya information for many years. Perhaps its decline could be down to social media taking over as the dominant internet medium.

Another iconic institution from many years ago was the Winchester Club on Soi Wat Boon, South Jomtien. It was very much a forerunner of today's gentlemen's clubs. It is now springing back to life under new ownership.

Another complex in the Soi 7 and Soi 8 area has gone to dust. It was located on the small cross soi connecting sois 7 and 8. JD Bar has closed on Soi 8 whilst Lek's Classroom Bar 2 has closed on the cross soi between Soi 7 and Pattaya Klang.

On Soi Buakhao we have lost the Unique Blue Sports Bar , Seventh Heaven and the Three Lords . Pleasure Hut has also closed but is replaced by Rocker Bar

On Soi 6 Miss B Haven has closed presumably after getting into serious trouble after a police raid.

Popped out to Walking Street last night about 11pm, I was watching the Masters Snooker.

It was fairly busy but a Shortage of Girls everywhere.

Started in Bliss which was very Lively. Nana was back from visiting her mum. She was wearing an all over black body stocking with no crotch and no knickers.

There was a slim very attractive Naked Dancer called May who kept pushing her pussy towards me, I bought her a Tequila she was pissed but she usually is. There a chubby Girl with a lovely Face and Big Knockers called Mai who was Dancing Topless. Bought her a drink also.

Stayed for one Beer and moved on to the Panda Club . This was well down on Girls as well, less than half the normal number.

I Sat with A Girl called Mae from the Sapphire Club, she is very well built with a lovely face and a hugh Jarce. She's a Coyote Dancer but she showed me her Tit's. they were very nice, a Good size. Another Girl came over for her drink, she said her name was 'Popular'. She didn't speak much English but Mae was translating, she was very friendly if you know what I mean, and said I was Horny, haha.

Stayed for one Draft Beer and Headed home.

Popped into Walking Street on Saturday night, the roads were very busy, Walking Street was heaving, not with the usual Coach Parties of Asian Tourists, but with Punters.

Started in the Sapphire Club which was very busy, the usual array of beautiful Girls on show. I was sitting on my own for most of time before Katie and Mo came over for a drink.

There was a new feature of a Cabaret with 5 Girls wearing Bra, Small white Tops and extremely Baggy Denim Shorts, cut down from Jeans. Katie was saying Sexy Girls, and checking my Heart, but I'm afraid it was an extremely boring 15 mins, it was very un sexy and tedious. They said they'd be back later, luckily I'd gone before that. The Girls were knocking the drinks back in 5 mins, so as I'd seen all the Girls I paid up and left.

Then decided to give Happy a try, and got the surprise of my life when the Showgirls came on, and not only that they stripped down to nothing, thats the first time since the old King died. There were two groups of Dancers one with Bikini's and one with Coyote Dancers who were wearing Rah Rah Skirts and G-string with a small Jacket Top.

Sat with Bikini Dancer Bang and Coyote Mae who has a Hugh Jarce so looked very good in the Short Skirt. Mae's sister also turned up as I was dishing out some Tips, she's Tall Slim and very attractive.

Stayed for one Beer and moved on to the Shark Club. It was packed with only Space to sit at the Stage but someone left before my Beer arrived and got a good seat. The Acrobatic Girls were on Stage, they put on a superb show on the poles as usual. They should be in a Circus, the best Cabaret I've seen. the Manager of the Sapphire club should take a look.

Sat with Polly, She has a very pretty Face and is very Friendly, A little on the Chubby Side with a Hugh Jarce. She was wearing a Rah Rah skirt and G-String, so very sexy, with a small jacket top.

Nui, Del's sister, was sitting next to me, she is very Small and was bouncing up and down on a chinaman's lap. I said to Polly if you did that I'd end up in Hospital, so she stuck one ample leg over mine. later Polly's sister Money came over, she was very attractive. The Mamasang came over and asked me where my Girls were, by that she meant, Pie, Del And Ray. I said you should know, you're the Mamasang? They weren't in the Bar.

Stayed for one Beer and headed home.

Popped into Walking Street last night. The roads were fairly quiet, Walking Street was busy without being overcrowded.

Started in Peppermint which was quiet with 12-15 punters. Some nice new Girls on show. The lady I was sitting with was pointing out all the 19 yr olds, some very nice ones. The Manager has Died, he was 55, of smoking. Cancer I assume.

Stayed for a Couple of Beers and then thought I'd try the New Harem . It was quite nice to start with, attractive Girls on the Stage, 8 Topless Dancers. There were 3 Girls from Happy and several other faces I knew.

But when I sat down on the Bench seating, I got an uncomfortable shock. I assume the seats were made by a passing group of Dwarves, they were low and very narrow and there was plenty of leg room so it did not make sense. Apart from the seating it was quite acceptable, I soon paid up and left.

Passed into Baccara which was very busy as usual. What was unusual was it was full of Farangs. I was sitting next to a young man about 30, all the girls who ignore me were trying to chat him up, but then a very attractive Girl tried her luck and they moved to the back of the room.

A very Ignorant Chinaman came and sat next to me and was blowing smoke in the air, I was trying to wave the smoke away, but he ignored my efforts, so I had to move, why do they allow smoking in a-go-go's it's illegal? Anne came down from upstairs for a drink, Hobnob had a day off. I don't like it upstairs as you can't see the Girls Tud's, stayed for 1 Beer and headed home,

Popped out on Sunday the 30th, had great difficulty in getting a Baht Bus. Most of them were empty but they would not stop, crazy they are going to Walking street anyway, why not make a few Baht on the way. Waited over 20mins till we got one. There were groups of 10-15 people waiting up near Foodmart, they had no chance of getting a Bus. It took 1 hour to reach Walking Street, I've never known crowds like it outside New Years Eve.

Popped into the Sapphire Club which was packed, not a spare seat anywhere apart from 2 Tables that were reserved. I said who are they reserved for but she didn't answer. Luckily 2 people left and we took their seats at the stage. Later a Single Farang was sitting on his own at one of the reserved seats, the other table was still empty and they were turning people away. Who were they expecting, the King?

The usual array of lovely Girls on show, had one Beer and moved onto the Shark club . I didn't venture into Walking Street as it was almost impassable. Shark club was very busy, I sat with Ray, but she was not interested, she sat on the edge of the seat and had her back to me, couldn't work out what she was looking at it wasn't me and it wasn't the Stage, she was blocking my view of the Stage. When she went off to dance she didn't come back after a couple of mins like the Girls sitting with Paul, but stayed for the Dance stint. The waitress I don't know if it was a him a her or an it, tried to take the Girls glasses away while they were half full, I waved at it and told it to fuck off,

I don't like this time of year, too much pressure for buying drinks and making money. Pauls Bird in the Sapphire club was getting drinks off 3 men and my Bird disappeared for 30 mins. I'll be glad when we get back to normal. Certainly won't be going to Walking Street New years eve, no chance of getting a Baht Bus and far too crowded,

Popped into Walking street last Saturday night, it was very busy with difficulty getting through the Crowds.

I started in the Lighthouse which had very loud music and no nudity. We sat down and ordered a draft Beer which is always very nice and my friend Paul the pussyman said: I'm ready when you are. I didn't think it was that bad. Two Fat waitresses were standing talking in front of me, I said I can't see through you but they did not understand. I said I did not pay to look at you and they moved about a foot. Soon paid up and left.

Followed into Fahrenheit , it was really Buzzing. I didn't get the best seats. The place was full of crumpet but I got lumbered with Lek again. Apart from being a lesbian she's not crumpet but she keeps telling me she loves me and kissing me on the mouth. Paul sat with her other half who is very attractive and kept asking Paul to go upstairs. One Girl had a hugh jarce, Paul said I should get her a drink but I didn't fancy her, she had no tit's and looked like she was chewing a wasp.

Stayed for one Drink and moved on to Wildcats , which was also busy. I sat with FA from New Living Dolls, she's chubby but very firm and has a very nice face. Paul was sitting with the Girls from Sweethearts, Num, Barbie and Tuk-ta.

Barbie was sitting on my Left and the Mamasang came round and asked me if I wanted to get her a drink. I said she was with Paul, so no just a drink for FA, but 2 drinks turned up and I got charged for 2 drinks. I pointed out the mistake and they took the drink back but I didn't get a refund. A Japanese man next to Paul was also complaining about the Mamasang. Why was the mamasang getting involved in serving drinks? There were 2 Asian men sitting in front of us and they were buying endless drinks for 3 waitresses and 3 Dancers. There was a constant party going on with them, so I assume she didn't want to interrupt it. Stayed for 1 Beer and paid up didn't make a fuss and demand a refund for the extra drink, life's too short and it is Christmas,
