ChipButty Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Is your favourite Bar opening soon? British Pub & Sports Bar Bangkok Established in 1997, a 40 year old veteran of Thailand (originally from London) decided that Bangkok lacked a decent British pub to have a beer and watch sporting events…. And so he established the Londoner Brew Pub, now Bangkok’s oldest micro-brewery. We pride ourselves on offering casual but high quality food and superb house brewed craft beer, with great service in a relaxed, family-friendly, atmosphere.

Popular Post DaLa Posted May 31, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 31, 2020 I'm polishing my shoes and getting my best clothes ready now. Just one question....any beer? I can accept the no swearing in a pub, I can live with the no smoking in a pub, and certainly acceptable with no fighting. But pubs just have a strange atmosphere to me if they don't serve beer. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You buy from one pub to take out which is legal. You then take it round the corner to another pub and drink it there...so legal. The guys in the pub you are now drinking at have bought their beer there and have gone to the pub you bought yours in. Again legal. When do we start? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, right, the pub that doesn't sell alcohol for consumption there is going to let you consume beer bought from another pub on their premises free of charge in contravention of the regulation that makes it illegal to consume alcohol on the premises?

Popular Post jimn Posted May 31, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 31, 2020 I have heard of a pub in the UK that is bending the rules and getting away with it. They are serving take away draught beer and customers are taking the beer outside and drinking in the beer garden that is a little off the pub site. Drink it up and go and get another. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, however that wasn't the only problem. I used to find after 3 pints ( red or white , it didn't appear to make a great difference) it was a struggle to drive home. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacessit Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Will the beer be cold, or does the pub name indicate what's served will be warm pee? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously going to be different here, but I can remember years ago the rules on Beer gardens were not required to be part of the licensed premises. On that basis you could accompany your parents and have an alcoholic drink legally. I can think of numerous pubs in Derbyshire I frequent that you could buy alcohol and then consume it 'off premises', for example on the picturesque village green. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post wordchild Posted May 31, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 31, 2020 (edited) i used to love the old place.

Ahhh the Sunday buffets yes, and I have some fond memories of big sports nights in there in my early years in Bangkok. Nowhere else has quite captured it, for me.

Agree with you on the old one. Dark, dingy, no atmosphere, no reason to go (except ladies night). New one is just near Pattanakarn 32. It is infinitely nicer than the old one. Nicely done out, light and airy, very high ceiling. Ground floor is the bar with sofas, high tables, and some eating tables, upstairs is a restaurant with open kitchen. Food is good. The place is always pretty busy with a good mixture of Thais and foreigners and families. I happen to live in that area so quite good for me. Would I make a special journey to go there? Probably not unless for a Sunday roast - it's a nice Sunday afternoon place. Tenderloins also opened up about 50m away and by contrast it is almost always empty. Dingy, claustrophobic, not nice at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would I, pubs are closed, and never seen one selling fish that was anything more than frozen, over breaded, and fried...but for some reason if you add canned Heinz beans you can charge triple. BTW, the OP is the same arrogant self promotion that brought the pub business to its knees before COVID...My great empire is reopening, come join us...lol, no mention of the most basic happy hour promo, or at least some free lancer in a Tiger dress...Apparently, the TAT aren't the only delusional ones..I don't need a government reminder to distance myself from places like that.
