And due to current regs if two of you go in you have to sit at separate tables. That's if there are any empty tables. If you are referring to the one a couple of doors from Hungry Hippo its the only one I know. Don't know the name and as I don't live in Pattaya, haven't been since March. A few places around me at that price but not what you would call bars, but then I never said bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was using the word bar loosely, here any room or area with a few tables where alcohol is sold counts as a bar. Or are you comparing an up-country shop price with a bar price.?

Packed out when we went Sunday, if not for the masks would have been like normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to say there is a fine line between a cheap Charlie, a skin flint and a tight a--e. The owner must be giving it away. I am all for competition but expecting things for free seems to be the expectation for some people. Perhaps it is stale beer? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better making something than nothing! Sell 100 beers at 44 or sell 10 beers at 60 or more? The bills are still there, might as well make something, you can always get more beer, you can't always get more customers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
